Oh's Intensive Care Manual, 8th Edition, serves as a practical reference manual for intensive care physicians across all levels of clinical experience. The volume provides accessible guidance for addressing complex conditions encountered in critical care medicine.

The text addresses core clinical areas such as shock, acute coronary care, respiratory failure, and paediatric intensive care. In addition, the manual reviews organizational essentials, including intensive care unit design, rapid response outreach systems, severity scoring, outcome prediction, and patient transport.

Prepared for intensive care residents, fellows, and practitioners, the 2019 edition adds coverage of intensive care imaging techniques such as ultrasound, alongside advances in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
