Basic Physics And Measurement In Anaesthesia

Revisions for this edition include developments in equipment; a review of technical features; new European regulations, expanded EEG and infusion chapters; updated and new illustrations; and a thorough review to cover FRCA requirements.

As in the previous editions, the authors have clearly defined the principles of clinical measurement. Mathematics are kept to a simple, understandable level with the frequent use of practical examples. Well established at the level between undergraduate teaching and advanced medical physics, this extensively illustrated book is for trainees and examination candidates in anesthesia and intensive care. Senior nursing, operating theatre and intensive care staff will also find it appropriate.

Covers essential information on maths, physics and clinical measurement for anaesthesia and critical care.

Physics in Anaesthesiacovers the subject in an informative and accessible way from the very basics, catering especially for those who consider themselves non-physicists. This new edition has been comprehensively updated, but the content remains aligned with the FRCA syllabus.

A concise book that conveys the essential physics concepts required to pass the FRCA viva examinations, with relevant applied questions.

Covers all of the equations that candidates need to understand and be able to apply when sitting postgraduate anaesthetic examinations.
