A practical, pocket guide for the trainee involved in anaesthetising patients in emergency situations. The introductory chapters cover the principles of emergency anaesthesia and of resuscitation with guidance on IV therapy, blood transfusions and the practical procedures needed, together with the basic aspects of monitoring. The subsequent chapters look at the individual systems and their associated emergency problems. This new edition has been completely revised, and will provide invaluable guidance for the trainee faced with a tricky emergency situation.
