Since the publication of the first edition of Core Topics in Cardiac Anesthesia, the clinical landscape has undergone significant change. Recent developments include the increased use of electrophysiology, the resurgence of primary percutaneous intervention in acute coronary syndromes, the use of percutaneous devices in patients previously considered inoperable, and the withdrawal of aprotinin. Against this landscape, this invaluable resource has been fully updated. New chapters are dedicated to right heart valves, pulmonary vascular disease, cardiac tumours and cardiac trauma. All other chapters have been updated according to the latest international guidelines. Written and edited by an international author team with a wealth of expertise in all aspects of the perioperative care of cardiac patients, topics are presented in an easy to digest and a readily accessible manner. Core Topics in Cardiac Anesthesia, Second Edition is essential reading for residents and fellows in anesthesia and cardiac surgery and clinical perfusionists.

The chapters in Essentials of Cardiac Anesthesia for Noncardiac Surgery have been written by acknowledged experts in each specific area, and the material has been coordinated to maximize its clinical value. Recent information has been integrated from anesthesiology, surgery, cardiology, critical care medicine, and clinical pharmacology to present a complete clinical picture. This "essential" information will assist the clinician in understanding the basic principles of each subject and facilitate their application in practice. Because of the large volume of information presented, several teaching aids have been included to help highlight the most important clinical information. Teaching boxes include many of the key take-home messages. In addition, the Key Points at the start of each chapter highlight the major areas covered. Finally, each chapter includes a list of Suggested Reading for additional information, rather than an extensive list of references.

With the number of patients living with congenital heart disease steadily increasing, relevant training in anesthesia care for these patients is becoming ever more important. Written by experts in the field, this highly illustrated book succinctly reviews the pathophysiology of congenital cardiac lesions along with important anesthetic implications for each. Case scenarios cover patients of wide-ranging ages, with a focus on care in non-cardiac operating room settings, including the general operating room, cardiac catheterization laboratory and radiology. Divided into sections corresponding to the anatomic classification of each cardiac lesion, the book includes keywords for easy cross-referencing. Several lesions have multiple scenarios presented in order to allow readers to learn how to discern more critically ill patients. The stepwise approach to understanding complex lesions provides a readily accessible guide for all anesthesia providers who care for patients with congenital heart disease. The book is also a useful tool for intraoperative teaching.

The most widely used clinical reference in cardiac anesthesia, this large handbook provides complete information on drugs, monitoring, cardiopulmonary bypass, circulatory support, and anesthetic management of specific cardiac disorders. It incorporates clinically relevant basic science into a practical "what-to-do" approach and is written in an easy-to-read outline format. This edition has a new chapter on surgical ventricular restoration, LV aneurysm, and CHF-related surgical procedures. Chapters provide increased coverage of postoperative atrial fibrillation prevention and treatment, drugs in perioperative risk reduction, and the role of inhalational anesthetics in organ protection via anesthetic preconditioning. This edition also has a revamped art program.
