Product Description

With malpractice insurance premiums on the rise, and insurance rates for the practicing anesthesiologist at an all time high, it is important, now more than ever, to have a single source reference related to both anesthesia and analgesia and how they both relate to dermatologic surgery. This book provides comprehensive coverage on the therapeutic usage of anesthesia and analgesia during dermatologic surgical procedures, providing basic concepts, as well as step-by-step descriptions of the various techniques involved.

Written by an international group of contributors, Anesthesia and Analgesia in Dermatologic Surgery:

• is the first book of its kind to present both anesthesia and analgesia techniques in a single source volume
• covers the basic principles of regional and local anesthesia with respect to anatomy, local anesthetic agents, and techniques
• examines new eutectic mixtures that penetrate through the skin’s membrane, enabling doctors to use analgesia over anesthesia for a wide range of superficial surgical procedures, including the harvesting of split skin grafts, laser surgery, electrosurgery, epilation, and skin biopsy
• discusses the use of nerve blocks as safer alternatives to local anesthesia
• contains a full chapter dedicated to the pediatric patient, and the specific concerns when relating anesthesia to the pediatric patient.

Product Description

Following on from the success of the first edition, “Short Answer Questions and MCQs in Anaesthesia and Intensive Care” has been completely rewritten to reflect the changes to the final FRCA exam from a long essay based examination to compulsory short answer questions (SAQs). This guide aims to introduce methods and systems of answering questions succinctly and accurately. Almost all of the questions have been asked in the final FRCA since 1996 and most chapters carry more detail than required to reach a pass standard. The new edition takes a question-orientated approach and provides guidance for the final exam. Given the short time allowed for answering the SAQs, previous practice, prior to sitting the examination, is essential. Each of the twelve sections has a comprehensive set of multiple choice questions (MCQ) to the same standard as those set by the Royal College of Anaesthetists. It is vital that candidates practice MCQs as well as SAQs, and the ninety multiple choice questions that follow the SAQ paper carry just as much weight as the SAQ paper. The book has been structured as topic based sections and chapters, each of which can be followed and used to enable self-testing. This book is an invaluable revision aid during preparation for the final FRCA exam and, due to the breadth of content, also forms a useful ready reference throughout anaesthetic training.

Product Description

The additions and amendments to this new edition reflect developments in anaesthetic practice and changes in our attitudes towards laboratory animal welfare.

. New edition provides new information on anaesthesia and analgesia, and has an extensively revised and updated bibliography.
. Provides a balanced consideration of the needs of scientific research and the welfare of laboratory animals.
. Written by a veterinary anaesthetist and scientist with over 30 years experience in the field, and who is actively engaged in research in this area
. Provides rapid, easily accessed information using tabulated summaries
. Provides those with limited experience of anaesthesia with the information they need to carry our procedures effectively, safely, and humanely.
. Provides sufficient depth for the more experienced anaesthetist moving to this field

Product Description

The Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) is an established section in the part I examination and in many anaesthetic examinations throughout the world. It enables the examiners to assess a candidate’s performance in a variety of areas and in topics that were not previously tested. The first edition sought to give examples of OSCE stations with answers. It was hoped that this would be of benefit to candidates as well as trainers looking for guidance about the type and style of stations that might be encountered. The second edition gives more examples of stations with answers. Candidates should find the answers helpful in assessing the level of knowledge required. Many stations require candidates to have a well-rehearsed system for them like examining the anaesthetic machine, or a system of the body. The second edition has been expanded to include these systems. More background information has been included so that once a system is understood it can be applied to different situations.

Two titles from the bestselling Oxford Handbook and Emergencies in series are available together in this great value pack!

Now in its second edition, the Oxford Handbook of Anaesthesia has been completely updated. All chapters have been rewritten and a number of new expert authors have been brought on board. Additional new material includes anaesthesia for the critically ill, and a comprehensive section on anaesthetic risk including anaesthetic risk tables. The first section deals with preoperative issues affecting the administration of anaesthesia. Practical advice is provided covering the impact of medical disease on anaesthesia. The second section describes practical anaesthesia techniques for surgical specialties, including most subspecialties such as thoracic and neuroanaesthesia. Separate, comprehensive sections on pediatric and obstetric anaesthesia are included. The management of emergencies arising during anaestheisa are fully covered with helpful action plans and algorithms throughout. Uncommon conditions and their management are included, and there is an extensive drug formulary and guide to infusion drugs. As with the first edition, this new edition is the essential handbook for anaesthetists, both junior and experienced, for registrars and those sitting exams, as well as ODPs and nurses involved in theater work and pre-assessment.

The second edition of Emergencies in Anaesthesia provides a practical, accessible guide to all emergency situations encountered during, and immediately following, anaesthesia. It covers the major specialties including cardiovascular medicine, respiratory medicine, obstetrics, and pediatrics, and each section begins with a clear table listing presentation, diagnosis, exclusions, immediate action, and follow up action. These subsections are then expanded upon in bullet format. Additional sections cover practical procedures such as how to insert a chest drain and how to administer inhaled drugs under aneasthesia, plus a concise drug formulary.
