Critical Care Scores -- The Clinician's Pocket Reference (19 Scores)
30-page pocket reference: 19 ICU/ED scores with exact cut-offs, pitfalls, and the original verified citation for each.
Stop guessing cut-offs at 3 a.m. This 30-page pocket reference covers all 19 critical care scores you actually reach for on shift: APACHE II, SOFA, qSOFA, NEWS2, MEWS, GCS, NIHSS, CHA2DS2-VASc, HAS-BLED, Child-Pugh, MELD, CURB-65, BISAP, NUTRIC, ROX index, Wells PE, Wells DVT, systematic arterial blood gas interpretation, and ARDSnet lung-protective ventilation with the Berlin ARDS classification. Every entry gives you the exact variables and scoring, interpretation by range as published in the original literature, the mistakes clinicians actually make with that score, what the score cannot tell you, and the original derivation paper with a DOI or PMID you can verify yourself -- no invented cut-offs, no rounded numbers. A one-page comparison table shows which score to reach for in which clinical situation. Built for physicians, residents, and critical care nurses who want the source, not just the number. Every score in this book also has a free, always-on interactive calculator at geomedhc.com/calculadoras -- this PDF is the offline, printable, deeper-dive companion.
