Ever since finishing my fellowships, I wanted to create a free reference sheet (front and back) containing “high yield” information in the areas of critical care and perioperative medicine. I feel I’m well suited to pursue this educational endeavor given my training as a physician who works in both settings, and hopefully many of you will benefit from the information (especially during the COVID-19 pandemic). Now some details:

This sheet doesn’t constitute medical advice, and I’m NOT responsible for any decisions or outcomes.

Share this document freely, but I ask that you do give me credit for it (hence the watermark).

I used a combination of Pixelmator Pro and Microsoft Excel to construct the document. I used GoodNotes on my iPad Pro to draw the diagrams.

Many areas are up for debate (ie, medication doses). Keep in mind that these are largely based on my practice as a cardiothoracic anesthesiologist and intensivist. Your institution’s policies and practices may differ considerably.

If you print this out, you might need to scale the document to fit on a single page or adjust your printable margins to 0. Use print preview to make sure everything is in view!

If you have any suggestions or want to report errata, contact me!

Drop me a comment below if you find this reference sheet helpful!
