Injuries are estimated to become the number one cause of death for men and women under the age of 45 by the year 2020. Trauma patients present unique challenges to anesthesiologists. Acute injuries require resource intensive care and are often complex cases especially when coupled with underlying, pre-existing medical conditions. Anesthesiologists are involved with trauma patients beginning with airway and shock resuscitation, continuing with intra-operative care during surgery, and extending on to pain management and critical care post-operatively. This reference focuses on a broad spectrum of traumatic injuries and the procedures anesthesiologists perform to adequately care for trauma patients perioperatively, surgically, and post-operatively. Special emphasis is given to the assessment and treatment of coexisting disease. Numerous tables and 300 illustrations showcasing various techniques of airway management, shock resuscitation, echocardiography and use of ultrasound for the performance of regional anesthesia in trauma, provide an invaluable reference for the anesthesiologist.

Trauma patients present a unique challenge to anesthesiologists, since they require resource-intensive care, often complicated by pre-existing medical conditions. This fully revised new edition focuses on a broad spectrum of traumatic injuries and the procedures anesthesiologists perform to care for trauma patients perioperatively, surgically, and post-operatively. Special emphasis is given to assessment and treatment of co-existing disease, including surgical management of trauma patients with head, spine, orthopedic, cardiac, and burn injuries. Topics such as training for trauma (including use of simulation) and hypothermia in trauma are also covered. Six brand new chapters address pre-hospital and ED trauma management, imaging in trauma, surgical issues in head trauma and in abdominal trauma, anesthesia for oral and maxillofacial trauma, and prevention of injuries. The text is enhanced with numerous tables and 300 illustrations showcasing techniques of airway management, shock resuscitation, echocardiography and use of ultrasound for the performance of regional anesthesia in trauma.

Quatrième de couverture : "S'appuyant sur des cas pratiques très concrets organisés de façon thématique, cet ouvrage décrit l'apport de l'anesthésie locorégionale pour la prise en charge de la douleur aiguë en traumatologie : traumatismes fermés du thorax, amputations, fractures des membres, brûlures, etc. Il décrit également la conduite à tenir en cas de lésions nerveuses, de risque de syndrome compartimentai ou selon la spécificité de certains terrains (femme enceinte, patient obèse, patient âgé, enfant). Dans une approche très dynamique, le lecteur est appelé à se pencher sur le choix de la technique analgésique en fonction des situations médicales et chirurgicales. Les aspects techniques de t'anesthésie locorégionale dans ces situations sont décrits, proposant un développement particulier sur les techniques de l'échoguidage. Certaines questions controversées sont aussi abordées pour offrir des points de vue différents au lecteur et l'aider ainsi à bien peser le pour et le contre lors de sa prise de décision."
