Anaesthetics

Much of anaesthetic practice is underpinned by physics, yet many struggle when studying the subject. This book has been written with the aim of helping those who have long since parted company with physics.

This new edition has been comprehensively updated, but the content remains aligned with the FRCA syllabus, making Physics in Anaesthesia ideal for trainee anaesthetists, as well as for operating department practitioners and anaesthetic nurses. In addition, clinical science and engineering students will appreciate the linking of theory and practice. Physics in Anaesthesia gives a complete and structured overview:

Explanations start from first principles Simple everyday examples are used to illustrate core concepts Clinical examples highlight the applications of physics in anaesthesia Worked examples and helpful diagrams develop understanding Completely revised MCQs/SBAs now available online with hints and tips, plus answers
