About the Book

This single source covers all aspects of modern anaesthetic care and is both an ideal book for board exam preparation for students and a convenient way for practising anaesthesiologists to update their knowledge. Chapters examine such topics as the principles of modern neuroanaesthesia and the care of patients with neurologic disease, and the expanded role of anaesthesiologists in the preoperative and postoperative care of surgical patients. Numerous tables and side bars illustrate key concepts about drug dosages and recommended orders for patient care. Important information is also highlighted in the text. Two revised chapters - Airway Management and Obstetric Anaesthesia and Neonatal Resuscitation - detail the latest advances to bring readers up to date.
