Reviews

“Hematologic Challenges in the Critically Ill gives a comprehensive yet concise overview and is a valuable educational and practical resource for both the novice and the experienced frontline intensivist. It will certainly become an important textbook for all intensive care professionals involved in the treatment of critically ill patients with hematologic disorders.” (Sebastian Hafner, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 129 (4), October, 2019)

“The introduction of new anticoagulant agents and recent data regarding the effects of transfusion increase the relevance of this book. … As the amount of data grows regarding hematologic changes in specific critical care populations, the relevance of this book will increase.” (David J. Dries, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 2019)​
