Description

Principles and Practice of Anesthesia for Thoracic Surgery will serve as an updated comprehensive review covering not only the recent advances, but also topics that haven't been covered in previously published texts: extracorporeal ventilatory support, new advances in chest imaging modalities, lung isolation with a difficult airway, pulmonary thrombo-endarterectomy, and chronic post-thoracotomy pain. Additionally, the book features clinical case discussions at the end of each clinical chapter as well as tables comprising detailed anesthetic management.

Reviews / Votes

From the reviews:

"Principles and Practice of Anesthesia for Thoracic Surgery will become the reference textbook of choice for thoracic anesthesia. . This is the most comprehensive text to date on noncardiac thoracic anesthesia. . The information is clearly readable and useful for early learners. . a useful resource and starting point for individuals preparing presentations on topics pertaining to thoracic anesthesia. . this is an excellent textbook, and a copy should find its way into every department of anesthesia, academic or community, involved with thoracic surgery." (Calvin Thompson, Canadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d'anesthésie, Vol. 60, 2013)

"This book sets out to be a comprehensive and up-to-date reference textbook suitable for all grades of practitioners in thoracic anesthesia. . This book is generally excellent with numerous high-quality bronchoscopy images and will become the standard international large reference textbook. . All thoracic surgical centres should have a copy in their libraries. Many senior thoracic anaesthetists and fellows will want to own their own copies." (J. H. Mackay and S. J. Gray, British Journal of Anaesthesia, Vol. 110 (5), 2013)

"Peter Slinger, a renowned expert in thoracic anesthesiology, has brought together more than 60 contributors . to produce this comprehensive text addressing the global practice of anesthesia for thoracic surgery. ... Slinger and colleagues have added significant value ... by including explanations of surgical technique in common, uncommon, and complex pulmonary procedures. ... Chapters on anesthesia for pediatric thoracic surgery, anesthetic management of thoracic trauma, transesophageal echocardiography applications during thoracic surgery ... establish this text as the most current and comprehensive work available. ... The book is ... an invaluable resource ... ." (Joseph P. Mathew, Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 307 (4), January, 2012)

"This comprehensive book on all aspects of anesthesia related to noncardiac thoracic surgery covers anatomy and physiology, diagnostic and therapeutic interventions, patient considerations and, of course, anesthetic implications of each. . This book's worthy objectives are met -- fully. . It is also a wonderful reference for seasoned anesthesiologists. . Every single chapter has a clinical case that is interesting and serves as a good review. . this book is excellent. . it represents the field in an outstanding fashion." (Martin Dauber, Doody's Book Reviews, October, 2011)
