About this book

A concise yet comprehensive overview of the anesthetic management of pediatric patients with congenital heart disease

Designed for ease of use, The Pediatric Cardiac Anesthesia Handbook is divided into two parts: Part One covers the basic assessment of patients, including cardiovascular physiology, the pathophysiology of coronary heart disease, preoperative evaluation, intraoperative management, and interpretation of cardiac catheterization data. Part Two contains templated chapters that address a variety of disorders, allowing easy reference to anatomical and physiological features, surgical therapies, anesthetic approach, and postoperative management.

Now in its second edition, The Pediatric Cardiac Anesthesia Handbook contains new chapters on coagulation and blood management, echocardiography, risk scoring systems, and postoperative critical care management, as well as a completely revised chapter on mechanical circulatory support.

Providing clear and reliable, this easily referable pocket-sized resource:

Addresses the additional complexities of pediatric patients and the anesthetic considerations for non-cardiac surgery after heart and heart-lung transplantation
Provides guidelines on specific lesions for the pediatric anesthesiologist caring for cardiac patients presenting for non-cardiac surgery
Contains templated chapters that allow easy reference by members of the multidisciplinary team, such as cardiologists, cardiac intensivists, perfusionists, and surgeons
Features high-quality illustrative echocardiographic images in every chapter and bulleted content designed for rapid reference

Written by an expert author team at the world-renowned Boston Children's Hospital, The Pediatric Cardiac Anesthesia Handbook is a must-have guide and study aid for anesthesiology and cardiac critical care trainees and practitioners who manage patients with congenital heart disease.
