Editorial Reviews

Review

From the reviews of the fourth edition:

"Fundamental principles, and most of the new considerations in obstetrical anesthesia are considered in this handbook, and every chapter provides a comprehensive bibliography. Single authorship provides a distinct advantage of avoiding duplication of information. … The Obstetric Anesthesia Handbook; Fourth Edition, is well updated and provides expert opinion on many clinical aspects of anesthesia for obstetrics which will be very useful for residents in anesthesiology and anesthesiologists involved in obstetrics … ." (Martine Pirlet, Canadian Journal of Anesthesia, Vol. 54 (5), May, 2007)



Product Description

For nearly two decades, anesthesiologists and obstetricians have turned to this handbook as the definitive reference for obstetric anesthesia. Authoritative yet concise, it has been designed as a practical guide to all aspects of anesthesia for childbirth and related obstetric procedures, including perinatal pharmacology, relief of labor pain, fetal monitoring, anesthesia for cesarean delivery, high risk pregnancy, and in vitro fertilization.

The fifth edition of Obstetric Anesthesia Handbook has been reorganized and revised to both update the content and help expedite the retrieval of the most pertinent information. New chapters include "Pain of Labor and Delivery" and "Effects of Epidural Analgesia on Labor and the Infant." An appendix has been added that includes the most recent national guidelines for obstetric anesthesia. With numerous illustrations and tables, as well as updates regarding new medications and techniques, this esteemed handbook is more valuable than ever.

4.0 out of 5 stars excellence in its essence, September 15, 2008
It's a perfect blend of essential information and the latest updates about the topic. It's the ideal reference book for students and physicians confronting maybe the most demanding branch of Anesthesiology. Easy to use, one can find all the needed information in no time.
