A concise yet comprehensive guide for anaesthetists, this text provides a practical approach to anaesthetic practice. Written by experts within their fields, the emphasis is on providing clear and reliable advice on a range of surgical situations.

The 'Oxford Handbook of Anaesthesia' continues to provide state of the art information on anaesthetic practice. The third edition has a new colour layout and includes new topics on risk, consent, organ donation, anaesthesia for the critically ill patient, and management of perioperative IV fluids.

This text will provide consultant and trainee anaesthetists, operating department personnel and anaesthetic nurses with a useful source of information and guidance that can be carried in the pocket, handbag or briefcase. Many algorithms are included.
