| Abstract
|
:
|
Discusses all common high risk situations and patients likely to be encountered in anesthetic practice, providing practical advice on pre-, intra- and post-operative management for both elective and emergency surgery. The introductory section gives background information on risks and complications, enabling the reader to accurately and quickly assess patients. Emphasis is placed on cardiovascular risk, cardiac disease, and cardiac management, but all key risks are assessed. The second section covers specific surgical scenarios such as the critically ill patient, the elderly patient, and those with cardiac co-morbidities. [From back cover].
