About the Book

This updated second edition of Gupta and Gelb's Essentials of Neuroanesthesia and Neurointensive Care contains the ideal combination of updated information for the practitioner, presented in easy-to-digest short chapters. With an essential clinical focus on key neuroanesthesia and neurointensive care knowledge, it is a practical guide for any practitioner of neuroanesthesia, beginner, occasional or experienced. The user-friendly format contains bullet points to ensure retention of important data, key points to summarize the take-home messages, suitable images to enhance understanding, and pertinent and appropriate references to allow for further exploration of the topics. This book is ideal for residents and others undergoing neuroanesthesia training. It is also a great tool for Operating Room nurses and other OR support workers, neurosurgical residents and neurointensive care professionals. This will also be a useful book to supplement knowledge for postgraduate fellowship and Board examinations.

Review :
'This second edition of Gupta and Gelb's Essentials of Neuroanesthesia and Neurointensive Care offers an accessible, easy-to-read review that focuses on the clinical setting. It admirably condenses relevant, important information to provide an overview of the material required by neuroanesthesia and neurointensive care practitioners. The book is ideally suited for trainees - be they students, residents, or fellows - involved in providing neuroanesthesia or neurointensive care.' Sujoy Banik, Canadian Anesthesiologists' Society 'I thoroughly enjoyed reading it from cover to cover and would unhesitatingly recommend it for everyone practising neuroanesthesia and neurointensive care in whatever capacity.' Sujoy Banik, Canadian Journal of Anesthesia
