Book Description
Pain management is becoming a substantial part of the everyday work of the anaesthetist, and all trainee anaesthetists need a thorough grounding in the basic principles as well as developing the practical skills in order to assess, diagnose, and treat all kinds of pain.
Principles of Pain Management for Anaesthetists provides a comprehensive grounding in pain and pain management for all those requiring a practical knowledge of process and treatment. The book’s highly practical approach makes it an ideal reference for every member of the multi-disciplinary team treating the patient, whether in post-operative recovery, ITU, or on the ward.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“This book is excellent. It completely achieves what it sets out to do. This is the knowledge base required by anaesthetists to navigate their way through pain medicine and would provide an ‘aide memoire’ for the pain medicine specialist … this book would serve well both those in training and preparing for exams, and those wishing to revisit some basic tenets of pain medicine. Its schematic and practical layout will appeal strongly to anaesthetists. We thoroughly recommend it.”
