PREFACE
Written by residents, fellows, and attending staff, this newest edition of
Pocket Anesthesia provides a practical, concise, up-to-date source of
information for management of the most common perioperative
conditions facing today’s anesthesia provider. Our goal in writing this
popular pocket guide was to give you a useful, evidence-based
reference which providers can refer to, in order to quickly find the most
relevant information they need.
For this fourth edition, we updated much of the information to reflect
current knowledge and significantly expanded regional anesthesia and
chronic pain management chapters. We also expanded coverage of
enhanced recovery after surgery, ultrasonography, and echocardio-
graphy. We are grateful for the support of all our contributors from
many different institutions across the country. With its basic and
advanced content, this book is intended for a wide audience, from
students and resident trainees to experienced practitioners.
We are especially indebted to a number of individuals whose
unending support and encouragement made this work possible. We
would like to thank the Wolters Kluwer staff, including Ashley Fischer,
Keith Donnellan, and Blair Jackson.
Finally, a very special thanks to our parents and families, including
Mr. Judd Taback, Drs. Katharine Nicodemus, David Ehrenfeld, and
Zina Matlyuk-Urman for their continued encouragement, love, and
support. We hope that you find the fourth edition of Pocket Anesthesia
a valuable resource in your clinical practice.
