It remains beautifully illustrated and features high quality colour photographs throughout.

The clear, concise and standardized format means that information is easy to access and perfect for revision. Every major piece of equipment is featured alongside colour photos, reproducible line diagrams, and information on its uses, how it works, pros and cons, and safety considerations.The authors, both consultants in anaesthesia and critical care, appreciate exactly what candidates need to know to be confident in clinical practice and to pass the FRCA exam. They have identified and tackled difficult subjects which are often glossed over or omitted in other resources, to produce a book that is comprehensive, engaging and to the point. In addition to anaesthetists, the book is also suitable for operating department practitioners, critical care staff, and physicians with an interest in anaesthesia or critical care. Show more
