Product Description

Anaesthesia for ophthalmic surgery has evolved rapidly during recent years and has become a subject of considerable interest and importance to anaesthetists and surgeons alike. Not only have general anaesthetic techniques become more specialized, but surgeons and anaesthetists have been involved in improving the safety and efficacy of local anaesthetic blocks and Day Surgery procedures.

LOCAL AND GENERAL ANAESTHESIA FOR OPHTHALMIC SURGERY is * The first book of its kind to review the rationale, techniques and complications of the more recently introduced regional blocks and changing general anaesthetic methods. * Divided into three sections: general anaesthesia; local anaesthesia; physiology of the eye. Each section is balanced with a combination of scientific information and clinical detail. Emphasis is placed upon anatomy, local anaesthesia, physiology and pharmacology * Extensively and well illustrated with original line drawings throughout - Moorfields Eye Hospital, November 1994
