About this Item

Paperback. The cardiac OR is not just another operating room. It is a system where physiology, technology, timing, and judgment meet under pressure.Cardiothoracic Anesthesia: A Clinical Guide to Cardiac and Thoracic Anesthesia is written for anesthesia residents, fellows, practicing anesthesiologists, intensivists, and perioperative clinicians who need a practical way to think through high-risk cardiac and thoracic cases.This book connects the foundations of cardiovascular physiology with the real decisions clinicians make during induction, monitoring, cardiopulmonary bypass, transesophageal echocardiography, vasoactive support, thoracic surgery, mechanical circulatory support, and crisis management.Inside, readers will find: - Fast-track clinical references for pre-case preparation- Practical frameworks for hemodynamic diagnosis and treatment- Clear explanations of CPB, TEE, ventricular function, coronary perfusion, and pulmonary physiology- Case-based teaching designed for the cardiac OR and thoracic anesthesia environment- MCQs and answer rationales for review and self-assessment- Tables, figures, glossary terms, and abbreviations for quick clinical orientationThe focus throughout is usable judgment: how to recognize deterioration early, how to match treatment to physiology, how to communicate with the surgical and perfusion teams, and how to guide the patient safely through the most physiologically demanding moments of perioperative care.If you are beginning a cardiac anesthesia rotation, preparing for fellowship, refreshing your approach to complex cardiothoracic cases, or looking for a clinically oriented reference that turns physiology into action, this guide is designed for you.For professional education and reference. Readers should verify doses, protocols, and clinical recommendations against current guidelines, local policy, drug labeling, and patient-specific factors. This item is printed on demand.

About this title

Synopsis

The cardiac OR is not just another operating room. It is a system where physiology, technology, timing, and judgment meet under pressure.
Cardiothoracic Anesthesia: A Clinical Guide to Cardiac and Thoracic Anesthesia is written for anesthesia residents, fellows, practicing anesthesiologists, intensivists, and perioperative clinicians who need a practical way to think through high-risk cardiac and thoracic cases.
This book connects the foundations of cardiovascular physiology with the real decisions clinicians make during induction, monitoring, cardiopulmonary bypass, transesophageal echocardiography, vasoactive support, thoracic surgery, mechanical circulatory support, and crisis management.
Inside, readers will find:
• Fast-track clinical references for pre-case preparation
• Practical frameworks for hemodynamic diagnosis and treatment
• Clear explanations of CPB, TEE, ventricular function, coronary perfusion, and pulmonary physiology
• Case-based teaching designed for the cardiac OR and thoracic anesthesia environment
• MCQs and answer rationales for review and self-assessment
• Tables, figures, glossary terms, and abbreviations for quick clinical orientation
The focus throughout is usable judgment: how to recognize deterioration early, how to match treatment to physiology, how to communicate with the surgical and perfusion teams, and how to guide the patient safely through the most physiologically demanding moments of perioperative care.
If you are beginning a cardiac anesthesia rotation, preparing for fellowship, refreshing your approach to complex cardiothoracic cases, or looking for a clinically oriented reference that turns physiology into action, this guide is designed for you.
For professional education and reference. Readers should verify doses, protocols, and clinical recommendations against current guidelines, local policy, drug labeling, and patient-specific factors.
