This book provides a comprehensive overview of current standards
of anesthesia and intensive care in neonates and children, with a
view to promoting standardization in clinical practice.
The first part of the book, devoted to issues in intensive care,
opens by considering scoring systems for the assessment of sick
children. The diagnosis, prevention, and management of
ventilator-associated pneumonia are then discussed, and the roles
of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation and noninvasive
respiratory support are reviewed. Further chapters address
procedural sedation and analgesia in children, the progress toward
open ICUs with liberal visiting policies, and advances in long-term
home mechanical ventilation.
In the second part of the book, a range of important topics in
anesthesia and perioperative medicine are discussed. After a review
of safety issues, current trends in pediatric regional and
locoregional anesthesia are described and a synopsis is provided on
current knowledge regarding the use of central blocks in infants
and children. Subsequent chapters are devoted to awareness
monitoring, single-lung ventilation techniques, anesthesia in the
context of severe prematurity, and emergence delirium.
"Pediatric Anesthesia, Intensive Care and Pain: Standardization
in Clinical Practice" will be an extremely useful source of
information for both novices and more experienced practitioners in
the field."
