Clinical Cases in Anesthesia 3/e

Description
Actual case studies in a Q & A format explore contemporary problems
in anesthesia, and provide practical solutions based on a careful
examination of all of the important scientific and clinical
principles for each case. The 3rd Edition offers brand-new coverage
of key topics in the cardiovascular, respiratory, central nervous
system, abdomen, and post-anesthesia care sections as well as a
completely new section on trauma. It also addresses important topics
such as hemophilia, infant anesthesia, lower extremity anesthesia,
and celiac plexus blocks. All of the existing cases are thoroughly
revised to include new treatments and practice guidelines, and new
knowledge of the relevant pharmacology. It’s an ideal review tool
for board preparation, and a handy resource for practice.
