Recent Advances in Anaesthesia and Intensive Care 22 is the latest volume in this very successful and long-established series (previously entitled Recent Advances in Anaesthesia and Analgesia) to present a series of cutting-edge topics for anaesthetists from some of the world's leading authorities in their subjects.
