This comprehensive reference presents all of the information necessary for the proper anesthetic management of all cardiac patients-regardless of what type of surgery they are undergoing. It also addresses high-risk anesthesia and surgery in the ambulatory, neurosurgical, thoracic, vascular, and obstetrical suites. Conveniently organized, Section I examines pre-operative evaluation, medications, and monitoring. Section II reviews specific cardiac conditions and how best to manage them during surgery. Section III covers a variety of cardiac procedures, and Section IV reviews non-cardiac procedures for patients with cardiac disease. Contains information on the latest monitoring techniques One of the most complete and comprehensive chapters on the subject of TEE as it applies to cardiac and non-cardiac surgical setting Examines all kinds of cardiac conditions and their management, including ischemic, valvular, and congenital heart disease, electrical disturbances, and rare cardiac conditions. Discusses today's hottest topics, such as pain management, minimally invasive cardiac surgery, cardiothoracic intensive care, and cardiopulmonary bypass. Pain management is discussed both in terms of treating surgical pain in patients with cardiac disease, as well as treating original pain with traditional anesthetic pain management techniques.
