Anesthesia Crash Course is uniquely positioned to address the needs
of new trainees in anesthesia. This book is written in a
conversational tone, avoiding unnecessary jargon and distilling the
key concepts of anesthesia into easy-to-remember tidbits - an
approach in increasing demand by medical students and junior
physicians.
The audience for this book is chiefly new anesthesia residents,
interns, medical students who rotate through anesthesia services,
and nurse anesthetists. By demystifying the world of anesthesia, it
provides a welcome resource to medical students and RNs who are
considering additional training in this popular but poorly
understood specialty. Surgical residents who feel they're not up to
speed with what's happening on the other side of the "ether screen"
would certainly also benefit from reading Anesthesia Crash Course.
New anesthesia trainees face an extremely daunting learning curve.
As they progress through training, they will read longer and more
detailed treatises on every aspect of modern anesthesia. It is not
realistic to imagine that someone might finish such a book in the
first week of his or her training! Anesthesia Crash Course wil
serve as a bridge between a trainee's pre-anesthesia experience and
more formal training. It can be read in the last month of
internship, or in evenings while completing the first few weeks of
anesthesia training. It can also serve as a medical student's
accompaniment for a two-week anesthesia elective.
