Every medical specialty has as its basis a core of classic papers, which both reflects the historical background and gives insight into present and future developments. The papers discussed in this volume are considered classics for many reasons, but in all cases they highlight landmarks in the development of critical care medicine. This is the first publication of its kind to collate all the classic papers in critical care into a single volume, providing an invaluable reference for both trainees and practising clinicians. The editors have assembled a distinguished team of internationally recognized experts who have chosen what they consider to be the most important papers in their subspecialty. Each entry follows a set format, starting with the abstract and reference to the original source of publication. This is followed by analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of the paper and the contribution it has made to the development of critical care. Wherever possible the citation score of each paper is given and detailed analysis of the top 500 most widely cited papers is provided, as well as an exhaustive breakdown of the most cited authors within the discipline. Providing in a single volume the cornerstone papers of the discipline, this book is set to become one of the standard reference works for all those working in critical care. It will be essential reading for senior nursing staff, trainees, research workers and clinicians.
