[.ca] Crisis Management in Anesthesiology (ISBN 0443089108)

Excellent book!!!:
This is an excellent book!!! It really does cover topics in a way not often presented by other books or texts, it presents them in an easily understandable way. The topics are ones every anesthesiologist hopes to never encounter but inevitably does. This is a great book for stimulating your brain about how you will deal with those crises!

Highly recommended handbook.:
Excellent, concise, well-written handbook. Each scenario, unique to a specific anesthesia-related pathophysiological situation, gives logical step-by-step behaviors for the anesthetist to take. The book also provides an outstanding overview of the crisis resource management mentality of the airlines and NASA, and how those principles are closely related to handling anesthetic emergencies. Highly recommended.
