Abstract:

Edited and written by leading educators, this popular book for the anesthesiology rotation has been thoroughly updated and retains its distinctive case-based approach.℗ℓ The Second Edition features a thorough revision of the discussion of ventilator management, improved coverage of extubation criteria, and the latest guidelines and algorithms for preoperative assessment.℗ℓ℗ℓ Considerations for quality improvement and patient safety have been expanded throughout the book.℗ℓ Anesthesia Student Survival Guide provides a complete introduction to the specialty and is aimed at medical and nursing students as well as practitioners in critical care who seek a succinct overview of anesthesiology. From reviews of the First Edition: ℓ́ℓℓ́Œan excellent resource for the student wanting a deeper understanding of what is essentially a post-graduate subject, for example, an elective student.ℓ́ℓ --British Journal of Anaesthesia ℗ℓ ℓ́ℓThis is an excellent introduction to the specialty for third-year medical students, covering a broad range of material at a sufficient depth to be useful, and providing a good structure for a comprehensive course of self-directed study.ℓ́ℓ --Doodyℓ́ℓs Review Service ℓ́ℓThe writing style is uniformly strong, which makes the book easy to read.ℓ́Œ[It] serves not only as an excellent resource for students and other learners seeking an introduction to anesthesia but also as a platform for teaching the basics. It will be a welcome addition to the libraries of teaching departments.ℓ́ℓ --Canadian Journal of Anesthesia ℗ℓ.
