The only truly concise yet comprehensive guide to anaesthetic practice, the Oxford Handbook of Anaesthesia provides practical guidelines for all anaesthetists, from junior to consultant level.
The first section deals with preoperative issues affecting the administration of anaesthesia. Practical advice is provided covering the impact of medical disease on anaesthesia. The second section describes practical anaesthetic techniques for surgical specialties, including most subspecialties, such as thoracic and neuroanaesthesia. Separate, comprehensive sections on paediatric and obstetric anaesthesia are included. Additional material for the second edition includes anaesthesia for the critically ill, and a comprehensive section on anaesthetic risk including anaesthetic risk tables.
The management of emergencies arising during anaesthesia is also fully covered with helpful action plans and algorithms throughout. Uncommon conditions and their management are included, along with an extensive drug formulary and guide to infusion drugs. It is the essential handbook for anaesthetists, both junior and experienced, for registrars and those sitting exams, as well as ODPs and nurses involved in theatre area work and pre-assessment. This is an introductory price!
