The perioperative care of individuals with neurologic compromise is
critically important, yet it is only one dimension of the rich
relationship between anaesthesiology and the neurosciences. The
mechanism of everyday therapeutic interventions such as anaesthesia
and analgesia is exciting neuroscience in its own right. At the new
frontier of outcomes studies lies the question of how the
perioperative period might impact the brain. For example, questions
related to anaesthetic neurotoxicity, delirium, and cognitive
dysfunction pose critical challenges for the field. The Oxford
Textbook in Neuroscience and Anaesthesiology addresses the exciting
field of neuroanaesthesiology in a new and stimulating way. In
twenty eight chapters, the neuroscientific basis of
anaesthesiology, the full spectrum of clinical neuroanaesthesia,
and the care of neurologic patients undergoing non-neurologic
surgery are explored in one comprehensive textbook for the first
time. The first section considers the neural mechanisms of general
anaesthetics, cerebral physiology, the neurobiology of pain, and
more. The second section explores the care of patients with
neurologic disease in the operating room or intensive care unit.
These clinical chapters systematically treat the perioperative
considerations of both brain and spine surgery, and provide
introductions to neurocritical care and pediatric neuroanaesthesia.
The final section outlines the care of neurologic patients
undergoing non-neurologic surgery. It examines key connections of
neurology and anaesthesiology, examining how conditions such as
dementia, stroke, or epilepsy interface with the perioperative
period. Each chapter has been carefully crafted to be concise yet
highly informative, reflecting the cutting edge of neuroscience and
neuroanaesthesiology. This international textbook gathers the best
available expertise of authors and leaders worldwide. Includes
access to online-only content, including more than 20 cases and
more than 90 questions that can be used in presentations and
teaching sessions. By activating your unique access code, you can
