In an easy-to-follow outline format, with more than 450 drawings and clinical photographs, the book presents clear, current information on indications, preparation, technique, precautions, and how to avoid potential complications.

The DVD also includes three animations: exchange transfusion, emergency evacuation of air leaks, and endotracheal intubation.
