Hadzic's Textbook of Regional Anesthesia and Acute Pain Management. Self-Assessment and Review

A full-color, case-based approach to learning anesthesiology, linked to the field's premier text

This unique review delivers more than 1,000 case-based Q&A, with answers corresponding to chapters/topics appearing in the classic Hadzic's Textbook of Regional Anesthesia and Pain Management. The wide-spectrum of cases provides readers with a solid and comprehensive review of the physiologic principles and patient-management protocols and techniques spanning the entire field of regional anesthesia and pain management. The text is bolstered by innovative clinical decision-making diagrams, flow charts, full-color illustrations, images, tables, clinical pearls, and references.

Up-to-date and authoritative, the book covers all the recent advances in the field, including the use of ultrasonography for imaging of peripheral nerves and the central nervous system; advances in understanding of the role of regional anesthesia in preventing post-operative pain; and the use of point-of-care ultrasound for a great number of other perioperative applications.
