Thoracic Anesthesia Procedures

by Alan Kaye (Editor), Richard Urman (Editor)

Overview

As the practice of thoracic anesthesia becomes increasingly recognized as a major subspecialty of anesthesia, there is a growing need among current practitioners to evolve their neuraxial, regional, and general anesthesia techniques and expand their understanding of the latest evidence. Thoracic Anesthesia Procedures is a timely update in the field, providing a concise, evidence-based, and richly illustrated book ideal for students, trainees, and practicing clinicians. Comprehensive in scope, this book addresses essential topics such as thoracic physiology and pathophysiology, airway devices and other equipment, anesthetic techniques, surgical considerations, ventilation techniques, and postoperative care.
