The perioperative care of individuals with neurologic compromise is critically important, yet it is only one dimension of the rich relationship between anaesthesiology and the neurosciences. The mechanism of everyday therapeutic interventions such as anaesthesia and analgesia is exciting neuroscience in its own right. At the new frontier of outcomes studies lies the question of how the perioperative period might impact the brain. For example, questions related toanaesthetic neurotoxicity, delirium, and cognitive dysfunction pose critical challenges for the field.The Oxford Textbook in Neuroscience and Anaesthesiology addresses the exciting field of neuroanaesthesiology in a new and stimulating way. In twenty eight chapters, the neuroscientific basis of anaesthesiology, the full spectrum of clinical neuroanaesthesia, and the care of neurologic patients undergoing non-neurologic surgery are explored in one comprehensive textbook for the first time.The first section considers the neural mechanisms of general anaesthetics, cerebral physiology, the neurobiology of pain, and more. The second section explores the care of patients with neurologic disease in the operating room or intensive care unit. These clinical chapters systematically treat the perioperative considerations of both brain and spine surgery, and provide introductions to neurocritical care and pediatric neuroanaesthesia. The final section outlines the care of neurologicpatients undergoing non-neurologic surgery. It examines key connections of neurology and anaesthesiology, examining how conditions such as dementia, stroke, or epilepsy interface with the perioperative period.Each chapter has been carefully crafted to be concise yet highly informative, reflecting the cutting edge of neuroscience and neuroanaesthesiology. This international textbook gathers the best available expertise of authors and leaders worldwide. Includes access to online-only content, including more than 20 cases and more than 90 questions that can be used in presentations and teaching sessions.

In diesem Buch beschreiben interdisziplinäre Autorenteams, bestehend aus Chirurgen und Anästhesisten, die gängigsten Operationsverfahren aus den chirurgischen Fachgebieten und deren Bedeutung für das anästhesiologische Management. Das Werk wendet sich an alle Anästhesisten in Aus-und Weiterbildung sowie Fachärzte für Anästhesie, die beim Blick über das OP-Tuch noch besser verstehen möchten, was der Eingriff für ihren Patienten bedeutet - präoperativ, intraoperativ und postoperativ.Jedes Kapitel gliedert sich systematisch in:Operation und operative Besonderheiten: Kurze Beschreibung u.a. des Eingriffs und Hinweise zu OP-Dauer, Lagerung, Schnittführung, Blutverlust, Schmerzintensität, OP-bedingten Komplikationen und Besonderheiten des Eingriffs selbst.Anästhesie und anästhesiologische Besonderheiten: Operationsspezifisches Wissen u.a. zu Labor, Aufklärung, Prämedikation, Prophylaxen, Monitoring, Zugängen, Wahl des Anästhesieverfahrens, Atemwegsmanagement, Flüssigkeitsbedarf, postoperativer Überwachung und Schmerztherapie, anästhesiebedingten Komplikationen und anästhesierelevanten Besonderheiten.Zum Nachschlagen der gängigsten Operationsverfahren, u.a. aus der Viszeralchirurgie, Urologie, Gynäkologie, Geburtshilfe, Herzchirurgie, Thoraxchirurgie, Gefäßchirurgie, Neurochirurgie, Augenheilkunde und HNO.
