Yao & Artusio's anesthesiology: problem-oriented patient management

"In this eighth edition, Yao & Artusio's Anesthesiology is organized by organ systems into 12 sections consisting of 63 chapters. Each chapter begins with a brief case presentation, followed by essential problems of each disease covering four areas: (1) pathophysiology and differential diagnosis, (2) preoperative evaluation and preparation, (3) intraoperative management, and (4) postoperative anesthetic management. Using a question-and-answer format, the book is designed to stress anesthetic problems and to give the anesthesiologist the opportunity to organize his or her own ideas of patient care. A reasonable answer, with updated references, follows each question."--Preface.
