Principles and Practice of Anesthesia for Thoracic Surgery
Description
Updated and expanded, this comprehensive new edition captures the considerable evolution in the anesthetic management of patients requiring anesthesia for non-cardiac intrathoracic diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. Major advances addressed include the expanded role of ultrasound beyond trans-esophageal echocardiography, the role of extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation in thoracic anesthesia, and postoperative pain management for thoracic surgery. Chapters are authored by prominent anesthesiologists and feature cases commonly encountered in clinical practice. Authoritative and the leading text in the field, this book will serve as an indispensible guide to practitioners of thoracic anesthesia at all levels.
Reviews / Votes
"This is an amazing reference that has been updated. The authors and editors should be commended for their efforts. I highly recommend this textbook for anyone involved in the practice of thoracic anesthesia." (Colin Royse, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 129 (6), December, 2019)
"This book comprehensively covers all facets of thoracic anesthesia. The book begins with a section on the history of thoracic anesthesia. It goes on to address the preoperative evaluation, intraoperative management, and postoperative management in addition to various subsections addressing specific thoracic procedures. . The book is written for practitioners at all levels (staff anesthesiologists, residents, fellows, CRNAs, AAs, and others)." (Jared Roussel, Doody's Book Reviews, April 29, 2019)
