Customer Reviews

Great asset

I'm an SRNA who recently entered residency. I have no experience in the OR, so this book has been worth it's weight in gold for me. It's incredibly helpful in terms of accurately describing the procedure as well as cueing the anesthetist on potential concerns pre, intra, and post procedure. The price is a bit steep, but it's well worth it!!

Fourth Edition is Awesome

I've used the 2nd edition of this book, but this edition is an order of magnitude improved. The book is much bigger: it now has over 1500 pages, and the print has color, including color diagrams. Best of all, you now get online access to the full searchable text, including diagrams. This overcomes one of the criticism of the previous editions that the book is not portable. You can now get full acess at work or print out the pages you're interested in on a color printer and just take that to the OR. I must say I was blown away by the improvements.

Surgeries

Great book but really bulky. Can't really carry it around with you all the time. I would love to see a mini-version of it in paperback.

Happy Anesthesiologist

I used this book continuously throughout my residency. It is a very useful tool for perioperative management of patients. I still reference it during practice for those cases that I do not do routinely. It is an excellent reference.

Great for Operating Room Personnel

Excellent resource for Operating personnel relating to surgical aspects of positioning and other surgical implications. A must for OR educators.
