The 3rd edition of this popular resource is an invaluable study tool for certification and recertification as well as a superb way to ensure mastery of all of the key knowledge in anesthesiology. Nearly 1,000 review questions cover everything from the basic sciences to general anesthesia and subspecialty considerations, with an emphasis on the most important and clinically relevant principles. All of the questions have been pre-tested on residents at the Mayo Clinic to ensure that they are comparable in difficulty and content to those encountered when taking the boards. For every question, readers will not only find the correct answer and an explanation, but also page references to major anesthesia texts?making it easy to find more information on any subject.- Offers completely updated questions and references throughout?reflecting the latest discoveries and techniques in physics, biochemistry, and anesthesia equipment · the newest drugs and drug categories · and the most recent information on respiratory physiology and critical care; pediatric physiology and anesthesia; anatomy, regional anesthesia, and pain management; cardiovascular physiology and anesthesia; and more!
- Includes coverage of new pain management drugs such as Cox-2 inhibitors, gabapentin (Neurontin), tramadol, capsaicin, and additives to spinal anesthetics, plus new drugs used in cardiac anesthesia and critical care medicine, including fenoldopam, ibutilide, dopexamine, and dexmedetomidine.

 Great Review for the Peds Board, September 04, 2014
By Adam East
|
|
I am currently reviewing for the Peds Anesthesia Board this Sept. 2014. I like the question and answer format. The book is concise and gets to the heart of the matter. I used Medtext when I took the recertification exam back in 2007 for the regular Board and I did well using that format. The format in this book is similar and I hope this book and several other review books I purchased will get me through.

Great book for ITE/First year resident, April 07, 2014
By DP
|
|
I highly recommend this book for anyone in anesthesia.
Kind of outdated but good to read over and just keep in mind some useless information, but nonetheless when encountering 70 year old attendings and those from the third world that work with halothane and enflurane they will refer back to some of the information.
Definately buy it.

Good book for AKT, January 04, 2014
By book_reader1
|
|
Recommended to me by other anesthesia residents, that it had questions similar to AKT. that was true.
It had good explanations, and those were very helpful.
Only thing that is annoying is you have to flip back and forth for the answers and next question, which is time consuming to do on the electronic version.

Totally necessary., June 28, 2013

My favorite book to study from. I get bored just reading textbooks. Much better for me to do questions, then read the answer/related topic to the questions.
