Practical Procedures in Anaesthesia and Critical Care (Oxford Specialty Training) (Original PDF from Publisher)

by Guy Jackson (Author), Christopher J. Whiten (Author), Neil Soni (Author)nThe ability to perform a wide variety of practical procedures safely and competently is essential for any doctor involved in the practice of anesthesia and intensive care. Junior doctors especially are now called upon to gain competence in many invasive practical procedures in an increasingly short space of time, whilst also understanding the theory behind them.nThis highly practical book is the only guide needed to the procedures and techniques commonly used in anesthesia and critical care medicine. Step-by-step, it clearly explains each technique and procedure, enabling the reader to fully understand how and why they are performed. Full colour photographs illustrate each technique, and every chapter covers the same essential information: definition, indications, contraindications, complications, equipment, sites, and technique, for ease of use.nThis book will be used by all junior trainees in anesthesia, along with junior doctors from other specialities working in intensive care units. It will also be useful to any senior anesthetist who wishes to update or refresh their knowledge, as well as anyone working in the emergency ward who performs any of these procedures.nnSeries: Oxford Specialty TrainingnPaperback: 272 pagesnPublisher: Oxford University Press; 1 edition (January 11, 2011)nLanguage: EnglishnISBN-10: 0199573026nISBN-13: 978-0199573028
