Anaesthetics For Medical Students

'Essential Anaesthesia for Medical Students' provides a balanced account of the anaesthetist's role both inside and outside of the operating theatre. Medical students are required to learn principles of anaesthesia but are not expected to give anaesthetics. Practical procedures and skills feature throughout the text, and tables and review boxes are used to highlight this information. In line with the GMC's recommendations applied basic sciences and communication skills are emphasized. For medical students and junior doctors working in anaesthesia, accident and emergency, or intensive care, this text covers the relevant core material while demonstrating the wide-ranging role of the anaesthetist.
