Air Instrument Surgery, Volume 2: Orthopedics has been compiled to aid in the se lection and use of air instruments in orthopedic surgical techniques. In each instance it attempts to demonstrate the classic approach, leaving it to the individual surgeon to develop further his expertise and ingenuity with air-driven instruments. Possible applications and adaptations are as unlimited as the surgeon's skill and imagination. Detailed illustrations and text treat the use of each air instrument in various proce dures, but the surgical application is given only for that portion of each procedure in which manual operation can be advantageously replaced by the use of air instru ments. This book, therefore, does not depict complete surgical procedures, nor does it include all the procedures in orthopedic surgery for which air instruments are now employed. Use of air-driven instruments does not imply any change in basic surgical techniques. It does enhance the surgeon's dexterity, increase his speed and, in some situations, makes a surgical approach possible for the first time. A technical guide has been needed since air instruments were introduced. Air In strument Surgery, Volume 2: Orthopedics is the second publication to fill that need. Its function is to clarify problems and difficulties and to suggest solutions by means of air instrument surgery. It is also intended to remove any apprehension about the use of air instruments. To ensure this, the technical procedures are supplemented with detailed instructions for assembling, using and maintaining the instruments.

Covering both surgical and anesthetic considerations, Anesthesiologist’s Manual of Surgical Procedures, Sixth Edition, is an essential resource for formulation of an anesthetic plan and perioperative management of patients. All chapters are written by both surgeons and anesthesiologists, giving you a detailed, real-world perspective on the many variables that accompany today’s surgical procedures.

This book is designed as a technical manual addressing the rapidly evolving subspecialty of anaesthesia for orthopaedic surgery patients. It is designed to demonstrate the interaction of surgery and anaesthesia and demonstrate how this interaction influences outcome. Providing a clinically useful integration of information about orthopaedic surgery and those anaesthesia techniques used for orthopaedic patients. Concise information on regional anaesthesia, local anaesthetics and common OR problems for orthopaedic cases is included. Surgical procedures and anaesthesia issues will be combined to provide a useful reference for the practicing clinician who occasionally has an orthopaedic case, as well as thoes members of the anaesthesia team assigned to these cases.

Here’s your go-to guide to the vast array of surgical instruments and equipment used in the OR today. This spiral-bound text/atlas delivers over 725 full-color photographs, detailed specifications, and comprehensive coverage you won’t find anywhere else.

The only book to offer detailed coverage of anesthetizing the patient undergoing orthopedic surgery This is the first book to cover in detail all of the techniques necessary for adequately assessing, monitoring, and anesthetizing the orthopedic patient. The text is supplemented with numerous evidence-based algorithms, tables, and management boxes Full of evidence-based algorithms and guidelines recently codified by the American Society of Anesthesia
