Principles and Practice of Regional Anaesthesia

The fourth edition of this highly successful textbook discusses the practical applications of the various methods of regional anaesthesia, including ultrasound, as well as giving an account of their theoretical aspects. The well-established author team use their experience to provide a practical and stimulating book which reflects everyday clinical activity, supplemented by high definition ultrasound images and schematic diagrams. The book will also discuss the place of regional anaesthesia in current medical practice, particularly with regard to pain processes, ultrasound imaging, and patient outcomes. Regional anaesthesia is a rapidly expanding sub-speciality of anaesthesia: routine provision of long-lasting pain relief and the introduction of real-time ultrasound block has fuelled a demand for cadaver and ultrasound-based anatomy training courses. Thus, it is more important than ever to have a thorough grounding in this exciting subspecialty.

Oxford Textbook of Anaesthesia for the Obese Patient

Obesity is a global public health issue; significant numbers of the world's population are overweight, growing numbers are obese, and many are morbidly obese.

The increasing size and weight of patients presenting for surgery involves multiple issues from starting intravenous lines through to intubation and ventilation challenges. The Oxford Textbook of Anaesthesia for the Obese Patient is a highly authoritative, evidence-based account of the principles and clinical practice within the fiel...
