A Practical Approach To Pediatric Anesthesia (Practical Approach To Anesthesia)
Available To Downloads

This new addition to our highly successful A Practical Approach to Anesthesia series is a comprehensive, accessible guide to pediatric anesthesia, with the substance and depth of a textbook and the convenient, user-friendly features of a handbook. It focuses on clinical issues, contains enough academic material for board review, and is written in bulleted and outline format, with numerous illustrations and tables. Major sections focus on approach to the pediatric patient, clinical and operational aspects of pediatric anesthesia, anesthetic management of normalities and abnormalities of each organ system, and special situations such as fetal surgery, anesthesia outside the operating room, and trauma. Emphasis is on the developmental aspects—anatomic, physiologic, and pharmacologic—that require special attention in anesthesia planning.

Came as promised, book was in excellent condition!!

I bought this book in preparation for a service trip to the West Bank. I found it very useful for organizing my thoughts before talking to residents and student nurse anesthetists about fluid management and local anesthetic toxicity. There is a drawing of the sacrum that nicely complemented the clinical instruction on identifying the sacral hiatus. I'll take it with me on my next trip.

Content-wise the book seems to be ok.My main problem with it is how difficult it is to read. It is written in a way that is not very easy to follow. Something simple could require several reads to understand the information due to how it was worded and put together.
