Tropical Infections Intensive Care Perspectives

Descriptions

The first chapter provides an overview of the epidemiology of tropical infections seen in India, along with an algorithmic approach to diagnosis, providing clues that would help clinicians at the bedside. The subsequent chapters cover specific tropical infections, including scrub typhus, other rickettsial infections, malaria, dengue, leptospirosis, and enteric fever. For each of the infections, apart from clinical manifestations and a focus on critical care aspects of management, a brief description of the pathophysiology is presented.
