Fundamental Principles and Practice of Anaesthesia
This book exemplifies the new approach to teaching anaesthesia, which is to dissociate subject areas from types of surgery and to use a problem-oriented approach It comprises four sections - Integrated basic sciences, The presenting patient, Fundamentals of anaesthetic practice, and Special topics - that correspond closely with the four-year training programme set out by the American Board of Anesthesiology for candidates studying for the Diploma in Anesthesiology and the new FRCA primary examinati on The first three sections provide an integrated core text covering material that every trainee needs to know and understand, while the fourth section is a multi-author review of more specialized topics Contributions are drawn from experts in the UK, Europe, the USA and Australasia, so presenting the best of current opinion and practice worldwide Its highly illustrated two-colour presentation provides readers with a source of information on key topics that is concise and can readily be assimilated
