Abstract: | A method of care applicable to all forms of critical illness is presented. A patient is considered to be critically ill when he is threatened with hypoxia. According to this concept, procedures to understand and solve problems of critical care are coordinated and unified. The relevant physiology and monitoring of the components of the oxygenating system are described. The treatment of patients with impaired function of these components is described. |
