A Practical Approach To Cardiac Anesthesia is the most widely used clinical reference in cardiac anesthesia. Drawing on the experience of 55 authors from 29 different institutions, this 5th edition provides complete information on drugs, monitoring, cardiopulmonary bypass, circulatory support, and anesthetic management of specific cardiac disorders.
Combining clinically relevant basic science with a practical andldquo;what-to-doandrdquo; approach, this text is written in an easy-to-read outline format. Information is presented in a logical structure that makes essential facts easy to find and apply. And step-by-step coverage guides readers from cardiac physiology to anesthetic management of specific cardiac surgical procedures to management of cardiac disorders to circulatory support and organ preservation.
Whether youandrsquo;re a practicing anesthesiologist, anesthesia resident, fellow in cardiothoracic anesthesia, perfusionist, or any other anesthesia practitioner, this is one book you should definitely keep close by.
FEATURES
andbull; Insightful perspectives from acknowledged authorities address thoracic anesthesia and pain management in cardiac and thoracic procedures
andbull; New chapters covering cardiac physiology and pericardial disease
andbull; Additional content addressing adult congenital heart disease and the latest advances in percutaneous valves
andbull; Full-color design throughout helps to highlight critical concepts
andbull; TEE images in full-color provide detailed intraoperative views of cardiovascular structures and activity
andbull; Key points are summarized at the beginning of each chapter with references to the appropriate section of the text
This is the most widely-used clinical reference in cardiac anesthesia, which itself continues to be the most vibrant subspecialty in anesthesia. This large handbook serves effectively as a mid-range option between smaller handbooks and textbooks. Its outline format contains all the information on drugs, monitoring, cardiopulmonary bypass, circulatory support, and management of specific cardiac disorders necessary for residents, fellows in cardiac anesthesia, practitioners, and CRNAs. It incorporates clinically relevant basic science into a very clinical, "What-to-do" approach, and is thus popular with generalists who do some cardiac work (as almost all anesthesiologists do). It is used to study for the ABA boards and the SCA certifying exam. Paul Barash has said he doesn't see why anyone would need more than the Hensley book for their cardiac-specific reading. (As the co-editor of a large cardiac anesthesia text by LWW, this statement did not come easily to him.
