Product Description
This practical reference is a comprehensive guide to the anesthetic and perioperative management of patients during all procedures performed by general and subspecialist surgeons. The book explains each procedure from the surgeon’s and anesthesiologist’s perspective, presents details on anesthetic technique, and guides the anesthesiologist through the decisions that must be made before, during, and after surgery. The third edition has outsold its predecessors and has already exceeded LWW’s LOE expectations. The Fourth Edition will be the first edition in full color.

I have been an anesthesiologist for over 15 years… and I would like to say that I don’t believe that this book accurately describes the procedures taken in surgery.
Rating: 1 / 5
I was very disappointed with this book. I was hoping for a text in which I could look up cases I wasn’t already familiar with (I am in 4th year of Residency in Canada), but I found that every time I wasn’t familiar with a case, neither was this book; i.e. it didn’t have ANY listing of the procedure at all. This kept happening repeatedly, and now I rarely bother to open it. If you are a beginning resident who doesn’t know how to do anesthesia for a lap chole, this book would be great. But for Anesthesiologists and senior residents looking for a more encyclopedic reference for outlining not-so-common surgeries, save your money (it’s not cheap) and look elsewhere.
As a good point, the layout is excellent and very useful for those procedures that are there; I hope the authors intend to expand this book in the future as it has great potential.

This book gives a clear, concise overview of the salient features of almost every type of surgical procedure.

Great book but really bulky. Can’t really carry it around with you all the time. I would love to see a mini-version of it in paperback.
