UNCOMMON DISEASES IN THE ICU GEBUNDEN

This book highlights the practical characteristics of uncommon diseases and presents the most
relevant features for the management of intensive care units. It does not aim to provide an
exhaustive description of uncommon diseases  focusing instead on the major diseases that
intensivists may encounter in their clinical practice. After a brief introduction on the
epidemiology and pathophysiology of each disease  the authors emphasize the aspects related to
diagnosis and treatment  providing concise and pragmatic guidance for residents and
intensivists who care for patients with uncommon diseases. Although by definition uncommon
diseases have a low prevalence in the general population  they can affect a large number of
patients admitted to intensive care units  as they can often be diagnosed at intensive care
units. Indeed  often a complication of the disease is what leads to the patient¿s being
admitted to an intensive care unit.
