Very well written and has rationale for pre-op, post-op and intra-op anesthesia considerations for multiple conditions one may encounter in the operating room. Small enough to carry in a bag into the OR.

Excellent book, it explain very well. Great conditions, a must have for every students and/or nurse anesthetist. Awesome practice tool.

The book is very helpful but for some reason the page numbers given in the index do not correlate with the correct topic in the book.

Excellent book, have the 4th edition as well. This is a great update. Wonderful reference material! Well written and easy to read.

Great book - I use this when I'm making anesthesia care plans for a quick, complete reference for different conditions!
