The clinical examination belongs to the introductory section of the book, and an abundance of technology, with specific emphasis on the importance of intracranial pressure, comes in the following parts.

Medicina Hospitalista. Tomo 1: Gestión directiva: ¿cómo optimizo mi servicio?

Los textos colectivos con muchos autores ostentan su propia identidad. Por un lado, la heterogeneidad —que puede ser una virtud en la medida en que se exponen visiones distintas—, por otro, la dificultad para coordinar los esfuerzos, la necesidad de asediar a los autores, de sustituir oportunamente a quienes se atrasan, distribuir equitativamente los créditos y confiar en la idoneidad de los elegidos. Hasta se han roto amistades cuando los compiladores acosan a los colaboradores. Esta complejidad se potencia cuando se trata de una propuesta internacional como esta; por más que las tecnologías vigentes para la comunicación han remediado muchos obstáculos, la distancia no ha desaparecido del todo. Además de la separación geográfica, hay disparidades en visiones, recursos, enfoques, caminos, aunque todo ello enriquece el contenido. Los comentarios anteriores intentan ponderar el valor de una obra plural como la que se ofrece, sus dificultades de ejecución, su variedad de perspectivas y al mismo tiempo la universalidad de sus conceptos.

Semiología en el Paciente Crítico

Prólogo Espero que este libro sirva como fuente de inspiración a todos los que trabajamos en medicina crítica. Somos privilegiados al sentir el amor por los pacientes y realizar la práctica de la medicina crítica con una atención basada en la mejor evidencia, nuestra experiencia y la opinión de expertos, que nos ayuda a tener en la cabecera de nuestro enfermo el mejor respaldo científico para la toma de decisiones terapéuticas para su atención cálida y humanizada; es un beneficio para todos. Un agradecimiento especial a todos los fabulosos colaboradores por sus enormes contribuciones. Gracias a Andrea por la comprensión y el apoyo recibidos durante las muchas horas de trabajo en el libro. La medicina basada en la evidencia es el uso explícito y juicioso de las mejores evidencias actuales disponibles para tomar decisiones en el cuidado de los pacientes individuales. La buena práctica requiere su integración plena con la experiencia clínica; sin ella, es más fácil que la clínica quede obsoleta y la medicina basada en la evidencia sea tiránica e inapropiada.
