Principles of Physiology for the Anaesthetist
No Customer Reviews
The practice on anaesthesia, including intensive care medicine and pain management, requires a considerable understanding of normal and abnormal physiology. This is reflected in postgraduate examinations in anaesthesia where candidates are questioned in depth about many aspects of physiology. Those in preparation for such examinations often rely on their undergraduate textbooks because there are few physiology books that are designed and written specifically with the trainee anaesthetist in mind. Principles of Physiology for the Anaesthetist aims to address this need. Ian Power and Peter Kam are anaesthetists with extensive experience of teaching physiology, and have written this book to improve understanding of the fundamentals of human physiology as it relates to the work of the anaesthetist. Diagrams throughout are used to support the text and aid understanding of the difficult concepts. In addition to the physiology of all major organ systems, there are special sections on the physiology of pain, the physiology of ageing and important features specific to special environments. This will be an invaluable reference throughout anaesthetic training and beyond, and a useful revision aid.
