Book Description

0521870585 978-0521870580 June 23, 2008 1
Trauma patients present unique challenges to anesthesiologists. Acute injuries require resource intensive care and are often complex cases especially when coupled with underlying, preexisting medical conditions. Anesthesiologists are involved with trauma patients beginning with airway and shock resuscitation, continuing with intraoperative care during surgery, and extending on to pain management and critical care post-operatively. This new reference focuses on a broad spectrum of traumatic injuries and the procedures anesthesiologists perform to adequately care for trauma patients perioperatively, surgically, and post-operatively. Special emphasis is given to the assessment and treatment of coexisting disease. Numerous tables and 300 illustrations showcasing various techniques of airway management, shock resuscitation, echocardiography and use of ultrasound for the performance of regional anesthesia in trauma, provide an invaluable reference for the anesthesiologist.

5.0 out of 5 stars I recommend this..., January 10, 2009
This review is from: Trauma Anesthesia (Hardcover)
I am a CRNA and have had the opportunity to read this book. I find it to be an excellent resource for complex anesthetic situations. I am able to find information on specific content quickly, even though the text is extensive. Nicely organized.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Trauma Anesthesia (Kindle Edition)
This text has a lot of information that isn't found in a lot of other anesthesia texts. It is a joy to read and I find it to be a great reference. This book is also available in Kindle format which is what I prefer.

1.0 out of 5 stars My first Kindle book, June 25, 2009
This review is from: Trauma Anesthesia (Kindle Edition)
This was my first Kindle book on my new Kindle DX and I was all jacked up to read this electonically. Well, first to the table of contents to go to the first chapter I wanted to read... Oh whoops you can't access chapters from the table of contents. A half hour on the phone with Kindle support and the final determination is that it is a publisher glitz. Order cancelled. What will I find with my next purchase???
