I take this book to clinical every day. When asked a question I don't know, I have it. the headings are easy to use and the charts in the back are handy as well. The size is perfect for a scrub jacket pocket, or back pocket in the pants.
"Sota" as this handbook is affectionately called is THE anesthesia drug handbook. It is a bit bulky in its current form, being short and fat, it can fit in a lab coat or bulge out of scrub pockets. For this reason I only carry the digital version to work each day. Skyscape's version works very very well. I recommend the book, and I recommend you get it in digital form for the Skyscape smartphone app.
Complete and concise coverage of the following for all anesthetic agents: pharmacokinetics + dynamics, available concentrations, adverse effects, indications and contraindications.I had given up hope of finding such a complete reference in a pocket size. Then I found this! Every anesthesia student should have one!
This book is extremely handy. It's small enough to carry with you and has a lot of good information. It only contains commonly used anesthetics and not antibiotics but the information on the anesthetic drugs is great
This was not a required textbook- a friend of mine had this book and I loved it. Gives straight-forward, what you need to know info. Easy to navigate, pocket book sized.
Concise, easy to use yet with all of the information needed from day to day in practice. Well worth the purchase
