Description
This multi-authored specialized text details what the anesthetist needs to know when managing a patient undergoing aortic surgery. Topics ranging from pertinent basic science and preoperative evaluation to all components of operative monitoring and specific details for each type of surgery. "Anesthesia for Aortic Surgery" offers comprehensive coverage on an important and challenging topic to all anesthesiologists. Traditionally, this topic has been partly covered in various types of texts; for example, cardiac anesthesia texts cover surgery on the ascending aorta; thoracic anesthesia texts superficially cover surgery on the descending aorta; and vascular anesthesia texts cover surgery on abdominal and peripheral aorta. Until now, while there are special considerations and controversies in the anesthetic management of aortic surgery, the topic has been poorly covered in available books.
