This book combines material from several of my reference books (SRNA), in a quick, easy-to-read way. On numerous cases I have researched patients surgeries as well as their co-morbidities, and then used Surgical Procedures and Anesthetic Implications, only to find the same information in a shorter period of time. The information is more concise with much greater ease of reading. The information is not in textbook form, but in user-friendly form, with all the pertinent information in one place.Reading through the material is both interesting and easy to reference. I have yet to find a surgery that is not covered. Every aspect of the needs for the patient, from fluids, monitors, anesthetic, as well as special considerations and information about the procedure are all there. The "Pearls" are a bonus, with things to remember, avoid, and key points.I highly recommend this book to students and know I will continue to utilize it in my practice.
For an SRNA, this book has good and bad points. Major surgeries have good details but other surgeries are lacking details that would be helpful. There is over 100 pages wasted on medication calculations per each Kg weight, which could have been used to give more details on surgeries. Some of the information isn't correct either, I would recommend double checking another source. It could be that other schools might not require very specific details, but mine expects more then just vague explanations. Jaffe is a much better source for specific case details for most surgeries. I was originally excited to get this book based on another person's review, however after getting it I am left disappointed with the lack of essential case points.
This book is a must have for all SRNA's and CRNA's!! This is what I turn to every night to review important information for my next days case. We have been missing a book that is easy to read and understand for surgical procedures. We finally have it! The book is broken down into chapters for each type of case (neuro surgery, craniofacial surgery, breast surgery, etc)and even has a section on positioning concerns, special techniques, jet ventilation, evoked potentials, double lumen ETT, etc. It's truly an asset to the anesthesia profession!!
very repetitious as far as approaches for each procedure; also mediocre as far as anesthesia approaches to specific surgeries; I've learned more in my clinical practice than what this book is suggesting. Jaffe is hands down better and will provide a full understanding of procedures and flavors of anesthesia approaches.
As an anesthesia author of many smart phone apps, I could clearly say this book is the best reference for learning cases in an easy format.It is realistic and covers so much more material than Jaffe. It does not waste space on surgical illustrations that we do not care about as seen in other texts. It also has PEARLs for each organ system for a great review.I have been using this book for the last 9 months as my primary reference for a project I have been working on. I just wish this book was available when I was a student.Matt VargoVargo Anesthesia
This is a great reference for an anesthesia provider. When it's been a while since I've done a type of case, I flip this book open and there is everything I need to know. From doing gallbladders to neuro to hearts, this book has always helped me. The section with pre-calculated drips was a blessing during my heart rotation. I see this book being very helpful to me when I'm preparing to take boards. Only wish there were a smaller size....but even though the book is a little big, I still carry it in the OR with me! Love it!
Straightforward and concise information for a wide variety of cases. Soft cover and light weight, able to be carried easily to clinical and left in locker. This can many times be your one go to reference book for most cases.This reference provides information about what each surgical case entails and offers suggested anesthetic plans, while highlighting that most important anesthetic considerations for each case. I really love this book and wish I had found it sooner during my first year of anesthesia school rather than my second. Contains cases that many other texts do not have.
I purchased this book as a first year SRNA and couldn't be happier. The book outlines important information that I need to know for my cases. It is easy to read and navigate through.
