Synopsis:
An easy to read book designed to explain the issues that perioperative nurses wish they knew about anesthesia. In a refreshingly relaxed way, Dr. John C Lundell leads the reader through the preop interview, induction of anesthesia, intubation and airway management, as well as intraoperative monitors, fluid management, and OR ventilators. He highlights the fundamentals of sedation, general anesthesia, and regional anesthesia and explains many of the hows and whys that Pre-op and PACU nurses have asked over the years. Dr. Lundell is a 20-year veteran of anesthesia practice, an enthusiastic teacher and a favorite among nurses, students, surgeons, and patients. He explains complex ideas about anesthesia in ways that are easy to digest. The book also covers postoperative pain management, emergence and extubation, critical situations in the OR, and a beginner's guide to understanding the hieroglyphic-like anesthetic record.
