Core Topics in Anaesthesia and Peri-operative Care of the Morbidly Obese Surgical Patient

Christopher Bouch

Jonathan Cousins

An essential read for healthcare providers across all disciplines, this book is a comprehensive guide to the perioperative management of the obese patient. Providing practical guidance on specific aspects of physiology, pharmacology and anaesthetic technique, it addresses the increasing prevalence of obese patients in both elective and emergency settings and the need for a definitive text on the perioperative care for these patients. With content mapped to the Royal College of Anaesthetists learning matrices, the book covers key topics such as: • Epidemiology of obesity • Pathophysiology of obesity • Pre-operative assessment • Intra- operative management • Post-operative care • Bariatric surgery.

Recenzii

'Many textbooks have been published in the past outlining and discussing bariatric surgery, but they have focused only on the surgery. This book is a refreshing change as it looks at anaesthesia and perioperative care … well structured … relevant to all perioperative practitioners, especially operating department practitioners, anaesthetic and recovery nurses. Preassessment nurses and pain management nurses would also find this book useful.' Paul Bond, Journal of Perioperative Practice
