A Practical Approach to Cardiac Anesthesia by Frederick A. Hensley Jr. MD, Glenn P. Gravlee and Donald E. Martin provides complete information on drugs, monitoring, cardiopulmonary bypass, circulatory support, and anesthetic management of specific cardiac disorders.
Combining clinically relevant basic science with a practical �what-to-do� approach, this text is written in an easy-to-read outline format. Information is presented in a logical structure that makes essential facts easy to find and apply. And step-by-step coverage guides readers from cardiac physiology to anesthetic management of specific cardiac surgical procedures to management of cardiac disorders to circulatory support and organ preservation.
Whether you�re a practicing anesthesiologist, anesthesia resident, fellow in cardiothoracic anesthesia, perfusionist, or any other anesthesia practitioner, this is one book you should definitely keep close by. There are perspectives from acknowledged authorities address thoracic anesthesia and pain management in cardiac and thoracic procedures. New chapters cover cardiac physiology and pericardial disease.
Additional content addresses adult congenital heart disease and the latest advances in percutaneous valves. Full-color design helps to highlight critical concepts. TEE images in full-color provide detailed intraoperative views of cardiovascular structures and activity. Key points are summarized at the beginning of each chapter with references to the appropriate section of the text.
All retained chapters have been updated from the first edition, and several have been completely rewritten to include the latest changes in the current practice. New chapters on pain management, pediatric circulatory assist techniques, and thoracic anesthesia have been added as well. The authors intend this book to serve as a practical reference for residents, fellows, accomplished cardiac anesthesiologists, and cardiac perfusionists.
These objectives are clearly met by the comprehensive, yet practical, scope and content of the book. The authors include anesthesiologists, surgeons, and perfusionists from 19 institutions in the United States. Most are highly regarded experts in their respective fields. They present a comprehensive and multidisciplinary view of the various issues associated with the management of the patient undergoing cardiac surgery.
The chapters are organized into four main sections. Each chapter is in outline format and has a reference list and a suggested readings list. Although references are somewhat scant and dated, they are generally pertinent. The authors use many tables, graphs, and drawings to illustrate important issues. They consistently succeed in making potentially difficult concepts succinct and coherent. The concise outline format gives an organized feel to each chapter.
The index is also detailed and complete. This is an excellent practical reference for cardiac anesthesia and perfusion trainees. It is certainly useful review and guide for the practicing anesthesiologist andperfusionist. I highly recommend its presence in any library as a quick and effective review of this topic.
