Addresses timely topics alongside foundational basic science for an in-depth andcomprehensive understanding of the field
Contains thoroughly up-to-date content, including two new chapters: The Immune System: Implications for Anesthetic Management and Emergency Preparedness in Healthcare
Provides new content in key areas such as sustainability, global health equity, the effect of anesthetics on immune function, anesthesia for special populations, coverage of infectious diseases including COVID-19, and occupational exposure and safety
Offers state-of-the-art coverage of anesthetic drugs, guidelines for anesthetic practice and patient safety, new techniques, step-by-step instructions for patient management, the unique needs of pediatric patients, and much more—all highlighted by more than 1,200 full-color illustrations (300 new to this edition) for enhanced visual clarity
Includes 40+ video clips demonstrating patient positioning, ultrasound, echocardiograms, and other imaging, and anesthetic procedures in real time
An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud. Additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date
