The purpose of this guide
is to provide an initial exposure to a variety of pediatric cases.Topics
covered includes neonatal emergencies, pediatric airways, ENT cases, general
surgical cases, and questions from written and oral boards.
Local anesthetics
are being increasingly applied in different surgeries. Lower side effects of
neuroaxial anesthesia, regional anesthesia, and field block, in comparison to
general anesthesia , are the main reasons why physicians prefer to conduct
surgeries under local anesthesia, especially in outpatient and day care
surgeries.
Local and Regional
Anesthesia with chapters on Spinal, Epidural, Paravertebral, and Parasacral
Analgesia, and on Other Applications of Local and Regional Anesthesia to the
Surgery of the Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat, and to Dental.
This is a consensus
document produced by expert members of a Working Party established by the
Association of Anaesthetists of Great Britain and Ireland (AAGBI) and British
Association of Day Surgery (BADS). It has been seen and approved by the Councils
of the AAGBI and BADS. This guidance has been designed to help anaesthetists
provide high quality pre-operative assessment services and patient preparation
before surgery. In addition it defines the roles and responsibilities of
anaesthetists both after planned and after unplanned admissions. Anaesthetists
should assume a central role in the organisation of pre-operative services that
encompass much more than preparing the delivery of anaesthesia.
