Anaesthetics; Intensive care medicine; Medical study & revision guides

Maths, physics and clinical measurement hold a degree of mystery and trepidation for many working and training in anaesthesia, intensive care and theatre practice. This important new book covers these core topics in a logical and structured format, creating a more enjoyable learning experience that is accessible and easy to digest. Each chapter opens with a set of learning objectives and summary of chapter contents. Following this is a clinical scenario that relates to the themes of the chapter and a number of hypothetical questions relating to the scenario are laid-out. Clinical pearls are presented in boxes for more advanced learning opportunities. Each chapter closes with a set of MCQ or SBA self-test questions to test the readers' knowledge of the chapter. This book covers everything needed for the FFICM and FRCA exams, making it an essential text for exam candidates, tutors, and those working in theatres, anaesthesia and the ICU.

Reviews for Maths, Physics and Clinical Measurement for Anaesthesia and Intensive Care

'… recommended core addition to hospital, medical center, college, and university library Health/Medicine instructional reference collections. It should be noted for the personal reading lists of medical students and hospital medical team members.' James A. Cox, Midwest Book Review 'This book is a well-executed collaboration of topics, interweaving meaty scientific concepts with clinically applicable uses. The uniformity of diagram design and chapter layout helps knit the book together and coupled with a balanced writing style and well-titled paragraphs, creates a straightforward, engaging read. For the FRCA or FFICM candidate, this book would be immensely valuable but almost anyone involved in administering anesthesia or in critical care medicine would benefit from reading this book.' Christine F. Wood and R. Ross Kennedy, Anesthesia & Analgesia
