Anesthesia Crash Course
Author: Charles Horton
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190451653
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
Anesthesia Crash Course is uniquely positioned to address the needs of new trainees in anesthesia. This book is written in a conversational tone, avoiding unnecessary jargon and distilling the key concepts of anesthesia into easy-to-remember tidbits - an approach in increasing demand by medical students and junior physicians. The audience for this book is chiefly new anesthesia residents, interns, medical students who rotate through anesthesia services, and nurse anesthetists. By demystifying the world of anesthesia, it provides a welcome resource to medical students and RNs who are considering additional training in this popular but poorly understood specialty. Surgical residents who feel they're not up to speed with what's happening on the other side of the "ether screen" would certainly also benefit from reading Anesthesia Crash Course. New anesthesia trainees face an extremely daunting learning curve. As they progress through training, they will read longer and more detailed treatises on every aspect of modern anesthesia. It is not realistic to imagine that someone might finish such a book in the first week of his or her training! Anesthesia Crash Course wil serve as a bridge between a trainee's pre-anesthesia experience and more formal training. It can be read in the last month of internship, or in evenings while completing the first few weeks of anesthesia training. It can also serve as a medical student's accompaniment for a two-week anesthesia elective.

The First Year
Author: Dr Lachlan Rathie Fanzca
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781530985692
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
Some common clinical questions: - What are the criteria for extubation? - What is the intubating dose of rocuronium for a patient who weighs 150kg? - How do I interpret a post tetanic count? - How do I manage a LMA with a leak? - What's the point of giving midazolam on induction? - Should I use a cuffed tube in a 4 year old? - How do I give a child a TIVA? - How do I intubate someone without muscle relaxants? - How do changes in cardiac output affect the induction dose of propofol? - Do I have to abandon my anaesthetic machine if there is a power board failure? This book answers those questions and a whole lot more. It is not an exam primer nor is it a comprehensive textbook of anaesthesia. This is the book you give to the trainee specialist who is about to embark on their anaesthesia training. It contains the information they need to formulate and develop a safe practice of anaesthesia. This book lucidly describes and justifies the core knowledge, behaviours and practice that a junior trainee would be expected to possess after a year of anaesthesia. Written specifically for Australasian anaesthetic trainees and GP registrars doing their JCCA advanced skills post, this book fills the gaping hole in the existing anaesthetic literature. This book aspires to take the relevant bits of a pharmacology textbook, a physiology textbook, a clinical anaesthesia textbook, an anaesthetics emergency manual and a perioperative medicine guide and tie them together in a succinct but sufficiently detailed volume. This book has been written with the intention of being relevant, up to date, pragmatic and entertaining. Written by a former rural GP, now Senior Staff Anaesthetist, Supervisor of Training and incorrigible cynic; this is the book he would have liked to have when he embarked on his First Year.
