Description
Anesthesia Outside of the Operating Room is a comprehensive, up-to-date textbook that covers all aspects of anesthesia care in OOR settings, from financial considerations to anesthetic techniques to quality assurance. With increasing numbers of procedures such as cardiac catheterization and imaging taking place outside of the main OR, anesthesia providers as well as non-anesthesia members of the patient care team will find this book critical to their
understanding of the principles of anesthesia care in unique settings which may have limited physical resources. Topics include patient monitoring techniques, pre-procedure evaluation and post-procedure care, and procedural sedation performed by non-anesthesia providers. The authors address problems of anesthesia
that have unique answers in OOR settings, such as patient transport and cardiac arrest, and discuss technological progress and considerations for the future. The text also covers surgical procedures and anesthetic considerations by procedure location, such as radiology, infertility clinics, field and military environments, and pediatric settings, among many others Select guidelines from the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) are provided as well. Edited by the senior faculty from
Harvard Medical School and with contributions from other academic institutions, Anesthesia Outside of the Operating Room provides a unique and convenient compendium of expertise and experience.

Reviews / Votes
"This is the first comprehensive anesthesia book dealing with the evolving field of anesthesia outside the operating room. The chapters that cover these locales are outstanding and thorough. They present basic scientific and clinical information necessary for anesthesiologists to understand the need for and relevance of our expertise. " --Doody'sMore details

Richard D. Urman, MD, MBA is Assistant Professor of Anesthesia, Harvard Medical School and Director of Procedural Sedation Management and Education at the Brigham and Women's Hospital. He has special interest in patient safety related to office-based anesthesia practice, operating room efficiency, novel anesthetic agents, and patient education. He also currently serves as officer of the Institute for Safety in Office-Based Surgery.
Wendy L. Gross, MD, MHCM practices cardiac anesthesiology at Brigham and Woman's Hospital. She is Medical Director of Periprocedural Services for the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine and is Director of Non-OR Cardiac Anesthesia. Her current interests include the medical and financial implications of the ongoing migration of surgery from the OR to interventional suites, applications of Transesophageal Echocardiography to percutaneous cardiology procedures and cost accounting for modeling of
integrated services.
Beverly K. Philip, MD is the Founding Director of
the Day Surgery Unit at the Brigham and Women's Hospital and Professor of Anaesthesia at Harvard University. Her areas of interest are the pharmacology of inhaled and intravenous agents, and the specialized administrative approaches to ambulatory surgery, including patient-focused, cost-effective care and facilitated 'fast-track' recovery. Dr. Philip is a founding member and past President of the Society for Ambulatory Anesthesia, past Chair of the Ambulatory Surgical Care Committee of the
American Society of Anesthesiologists, and an Editor-in-Chief of the international journal "Ambulatory Surgery."
