Product Description:
This definitive, authoritative clinical manual stands alone in the field of patient sedation. Combining essential theory with technical instruction, it presents "everything in a nutshell" for the practicing professional and student of dentistry. Key factors such as the physical, emotional, and mental condition of the patient - as well as required ADA guidelines - are incorporated into sedation techniques designed to improve the patient's overall dental experience. The result is an indispensable book, expert in its professional protocols and techniques, and comprehensive in its wide-ranging considerations. Detailed chapters, divided into eight parts, are devoted to topics on: the problem of fear and anxiety in dentistry; pain and anxiety control; pharmacosedation; history and techniques of general anesthesia; inhalation and intravenous sedation, preparation and management of emergencies in the dental office; and sedation for special needs patients - pediatric, geriatric, and medical and physically compromised patients.

Written by an acknowledged expert in the field, the book draws on a wealth of clinical experience and ability.
Combines all aspects of sedation with essential theoretical and technical instruction.
Techniques are divided into sections on pharmacology, armamentarium, and technique and complications - described in explicit detail that allows it to be used as a chairside reference.
Pharmacosedation is covered in full, with discussions of oral, rectal, and IM premedication, as well as nine chapters on inhalation sedation and ten chapters on IV sedation.
Covers all of the components required by the ADA guidelines: review of cardiovascular and respiratory physiology; selection of agents; techniques of administration; and management of complications and emergencies.
Step-by-step descriptions of inhalation sedation (nitrous oxide and oxygen) and intravenous sedation provide a superb clinical "picture" of the procedures.
Chapters on pediatric, geriatric and physically and medically compromised patients offer valuable, up-to-date information on the management of these special needs patients.
In-depth discussions of the pharmacology of commonly used sedative agents allow the reader to fully understand properties and characteristics of drugs used.

Content has been completely updated to include the most current drug dosage information.
More information on recreational abuse of nitrous oxide reflects the current societal trends.
The latest American Heart Association recommendations help prevent bacterial endocarditis.
Increased emphasis on nitrous oxide/oxygen, as many dental hygienists are becoming certified to administer this form of sedation.
New contributors lend credibility and experience to each topic discussed.
Content outlines at the beginning of each chapter allow for quick reference of specific topics.
Improved illustrations and photographs offer a fresh look, with high-quality art to aid in the visualization of techniques and procedures.

This new edition is greatly expanded and revised – an essential and comprehensive text for anyone with a special interest in animal anesthesia and analgesia.

Book Description:
Many changes have occurred in veterinary medicine and anesthesia, with each succeeding edition of this definitive reference faithfully updating and documenting these advances. In recent years, the ever increasing emphasis on the treatment of animal pain has placed veterinary anesthesiology and pain management in a central role in the delivery of humane veterinary care. Accordingly, the increased importance of analgesia is highlighted in this new edition by the inclusion of several chapters focusing on recent advancements in animal pain management and most noticeably is reflected in its new title, Lumb and Jones' Veterinary Anesthesia and Analgesia. This edition of Lumb and Jones' has 63 contributing authors, offering a wide breadth of author scientific training and clinical experience. As would be expected, many of the contributing authors are anesthesiologists but a number of new chapter authors are specialized in other clinical areas including clinical pharmacology, surgery, medicine, critical care, cardiology, neurology, urology, ophthalmology, dentistry, radiology, physical rehabilitation, and lab animal medicine. This increased diversity in authorship will provide an even more comprehensive perspective to the management of anesthesia and pain in patients suffering from an array of clinical conditions and disease. Covering all veterinary species and a full array of clinical conditions and diseases, Lumb and Jones' serves as the gold standard reference in veterinary anesthesia and analgesia.

Clinical Anesthesia: Near Misses and Lessons Learned

Edition: 1
Media: Paperback
EAN: 9780387725192
ISBN: 0387725199
Number Of Pages: 164
Publication Date: 2008-09-19
Publisher: Springer

Product Description:
Although near-miss situations are relatively rare in anesthesiology, it is essential to know how to respond if the situation arises. This collection of actual cases, compiled from the authorâs 30+ years practice in major metropolitan hospitals in the US, Sweden and South Africa, is an excellent review of potential problems and solutions all anesthesiologists should be familiar with. The cases are succinct, with the problem and a solution described, then concluded by a retrospective analysis that examines whether the solution used was actually the best (or only) choice, or if other solutions might provide equally satisfactory outcomes. Also included in the analyses are tips to help avoid the problem altogether, when possible. This book is an excellent review for the ABA oral exam and is an easy and practical way to prepare for the unexpected in the daily practice of clinical anesthesia.
