Residents, fellows, and practising certified registered nurse anesthetists will benefit from the retelling of these actual near misses, the solutions chosen at the time, and a retrospective analysis of those solutions that includes tips for how the problems could have been avoided altogether or resolved differently. An excellent study aid for the American Board of Anesthesiology oral exam and a useful teaching tool for faculty, since near misses such as these are relatively rare and other than reading about them, there really is no way to be prepared to successfully manage such crises. As such, even experienced anesthesiologists and CRNAs will find this to be a worthy purchase.

The cases presented did not really seem interesting and challenging, could be easily read in an hour. Not for experienced practitioners looking for new information and tips.

Great quick reference, March 22, 2010

If you're looking for a detailed review, this is not the book. If you're looking for "what if" scenarios, this is it. These are all real cases that JBU and his residents were involved in.
Hopefully, you'll never come across these situations, but if you do, and have read this book, you'll have a starting point for your (emergent) therapy.
If you can find the earlier book, "Near Misses in Pediatric Anesthesia", grab it too. They are different cases.
My bias: I was a resident with JBU at Stanford 10 years ago.

A Fascinating book. Very few anaesthesiologists have the authors vast experience in 3 contintents, Europe, Africa and USA. Was trained by Dr.Brock-Utne for 5 years in South Africa. His teachings have greatly helped his students in their day to day anaesthetic duties Cheers Allan Hold (Durban)
