Description
A comprehensive textbook for anaesthetists in training and practice, which reviews the basic science of neurological form and function, and the surgery required to restore or preserve this function. The authors aim to impart their practical experience to the trainee, and to review the literature in support of this. The practical anaesthetic chapters begin with a review of surgical procedures and pathology before considering positioning, premedication, LA and GA, monitoring and ventilation. References included in the book are divided according to the main headings within each chapter.
