I kept on seeing students, residents, CRNAs and even attendings in the department using this book to prepare for cases and for the boards. So I ordered a copy for myself and am extremely pleased. While the book looks small it is complete and comprehensive, including both basic and advanced topics. The six-ring binder fits nicely in the pocket of my lab coat or I can choose to just carry a few of the loose-leaf pages around with me. There is a LOT of information crammed into this little book. It's generously illustrated with many relevant lists, tables, and algorithms, which condenses a ton of information. A very, very useful resource in deed, I recommend it for everyone studying or practicing Anesthesiology.

Simply put- Ehrenfeld & Urman's Pocket Anesthesiology is efficient. Only the most useful information for preparing a pre-op, intra-operative, and post-op plan has been included. Much information has been densely packed and has been organized in a way that whatever you're looking for is at your fingertips in seconds. The figures are thoughtful and include everything you need, nothing more. For a book it is surprisingly current with the most recent scholarship.

This little guide is jam packed full of tables and great deatailed information. I wish this book had been out while I was in anesthesia training. Great review information for those who have been out a while. Very useful addition to any resource library!

This book is absolutely awesome. I am a student nurse anesthetist and this book is invaluable!! Everyone who looks at it from anesthesiologists to CRNAs say I need to get a copy of this book. This book covers all aspects of anesthesia from co morbidities to trouble shooting complications that may occur while in the OR. This is a clinical must!!!

This thing is like a whole Anesthesia book crammed into a little bible, literally on bible-thin paper. It has so much in there i have to write things down on index cards to find it, but it is a great reference in clinical no doubt -jj

very informative bood. Good resource for a CRNA student. Use this as a quick reference in the operationg room frequently

Fits in white coat pocket, easy and quick to find answers. All the info a student will need for the OR.

I really like this book but found the pharm section very weak. For example, the only discussion of IV induction agents is a one page table taken from miller. Those are the drugs that should be covered in detail. Why is there a longer description of ethacrynic acid than propofol?Also the pharm section has several errors and omissions. Suboxone is mentioned but left blank, stating that it's only approved for detox centers. Sorry, but people on suboxone also come in for surgery. Does not have the most recent ACLS guidelines but that was probably a timing issue with publication.The remainder of the book is excellent. Well organized, no irrelevant filler, and well-indexed.
