Endocrinology is a rapidly developing field with many new concepts.
In addition, many new hormones have been described since 1960. The
structural analysis and synthesis of several intestinal hormones
such as gastrin, secretin, glucagon and cholecystokinin have been
achieved. Several hypothalamic hormones controlling pituitary
function have been identified and in certain cases synthesized. The
existence of hormonal peptides se creted from ectopic sites has
been recognized. The development of new techniques of hormone assay
has stimulated studies on the effects of anesthetics on the
endocrine system. Although the endocrine response to anesthesia is
less than its response to major surgical procedures, the effects of
anesthesia on metabolism and on the autonomie nervous system are
substantial. The primary purpose of this book is to increase the
safety of patients undergoing anesthesia by making available the
latest developments in this field. The major subjects examined in
the book are endocrine responses to anesthesia and surgery, the
effects of endocrine disease on anesthesia and sur gery, and
pre-operative and post-operative management of patients with
endocrine disease. The book is designed for students, residents and
practicing physicians in the field of anesthesia and surgery. Many
tables and figures are empIoyed to improve the presentation,
particuIarly those relating to pharmacology and to the practical
aspects of therapy."
