Rezensionen

From the reviews:

"This is a comprehensive yet brief review of perioperative thoracic anesthesia care. ... The target audience includes anesthesiologists who don't routinely do thoracic cases and anesthesia residents. ... Chapters are brief, to the point, and well illustrated. ... provides real life information on thoracic anesthesia and demystifies lung isolation techniques in thoracic surgery. It's a must read for all anesthesia residents and a must have for general anesthesiologists who may end up doing a complicated thoracic case while on call." (Tariq M. Malik, Doody's Review Service, April, 2012)
