Short description
Lecture Notes: Clinical Anesthesia, 3rd Edition introduces students, residents, general practitioners, and allied health professionals to the modern principles and practices of clinical anesthesia, and can be used as a core text or as a supplementary resource. It contains diagrams, photographs, and key fact boxes that support easy understanding of key information. As many schools do not have specific anesthesia teaching as part of the main curriculum, this text provides an excellent introduction to this important subject area. In this revised edition, the increased role of anesthetists in perioperative care is reflected in chapters on pain management, intensive care, and resuscitation.
