I am in anesthesia practice for 18 years, last 9 in private practice community setting hospital. Since early days I always used "MassGeneral"(MG) and have it in my OR bag for quick reference. I have read "the Anesthesia Guide" (tAG) and was very impressed with this handbook. In my opinion, overall, it is the best handbook currently around."the Anesthesia Guide" is advantageous to MG in many aspects. In Eight Edition of MassGeneral its publisher decided to make book wider. As a result, it doesn't fit into scrubs or white coat pockets; it became a "shelf book". "the Anesthesia Guide" docs used an interesting idea and kept all the references on-line, but managed to keep the book in "carry- anywhere" format.Every chapter in tAG is color coded as a result, navigation through the book much less intricate compare to "MassGeneral"."The Anesthesia Guide" has outstanding full color reproductions. Many chapters have Pearls and Tips at the end. It is very practical and written by well versed authors with "hands on" quality information. Airway management, regional anesthesia, pediatric regional anesthesia, critical care, specific procedures- sections are "spot on" excellent.I give this book 5 stars, highly recommend to residents, CRNAs, critical care and pulmonary fellows exploring future ICU carrier, as well as to "country doctors" like myself. This book is also good for quick quality brush through prior to "haven't done since residency" cases as well. Congratulation to the authors on job well done!
This guide takes over first place position from other previous manuals and should be in the pocket or on the anesthesia machine of every resident and CRNA student. While able to explain the basics clearly, the authors go on to cover a comprehensive array of topics thoroughly and with plenty of detail to make this book invaluable. The graphics beat out any competition and help make it more than sufficient when reviewing prior to a case or before the boards . Especially noteworthy are the sections on regional block, the visuals on airway management and the schematics on cardiology. Either as a refresher for an experienced anesthesia provider or as a manual for new learners, this book has it all.
The book is easy to read, it also has great tables and images. The content is summarized on a pre-op, intra-op and post op format which makes this book an excellent review book for oral boards. Overall a great review book !
Very well written and an excellent reference and review.It is well organized and its size makes it easy to use.
Smaller than Miller so you can bring to OR, but bigger than Pocket Anesthesia to provide more detail. Comprehensive in content, compact in size, and practical in organization--a nice in-between text.
Just graduated from residency and have this in my bag now in PP. Great book. Thorough. Could be used for board review.
