"Anaesthesia and the Lung 1992" presents recent advances in the diagnosis, pre-, intra-, and postoperative anaesthetic management of patients with lung disease, presenting for pulmonary and non-pulmonary surgery. It also deals with ventilation - perfusion issues, the lung as a metabolic organ, the effects of anaesthesia on pulmonary mechanics and pulmonary blood flow. In addition, there are chapters that focus on hypoxia; regional differences in the lung; pulmonary surfactant; recent advances in the understanding of pulmonary edema; high altitude disease; anaesthesia and the control of breathing; recent development in oximetry; instrumentation designed to measure pulmonary oxygen tension, pO2 and pCO2 transcutaneously; differential lung ventilation; reactive airways; septic shock; the adult respiratory distress syndrome and numerous aspects of ventilatory support.
Gravity and the lung - lessons from space; control of the pulmonary circulation; a primer on pulmonary cell biology - lung cells and their function; the pulmonary circulation during anaesthesia; pulmonary oedema caused by stress failure of capillaries; mechanisms of lung injury - an overview; hemodynamic determinants of pulmonary oedema and pleural effusions; oxygen consumption measurements in artificial ventilation; the hypoxic brain; severe hypoxia - insights from extreme altitude; respiratory control related to altitude and anaesthesia; lactic acidosis, type A; rib cage contribution to ventilation during anaesthesia; oxygen - the breath of life; management of the patient with reactive airway disease; management of the difficult airway - epidemiology, the ASA algorithm and recognition; management of the difficult airway - proper preparation for the awake intubation, fiberoptic and retrograde techniques; management of the difficult airway - the anaesthetized patient whose trachea is difficult to intubate, transtracheal jet ventilation, the difficult extubation and jet stylets; influence of anaesthetics on pulmonary gas exchange; assessment of respiratory mechanics during mechanical ventilation; physiologic effects of raised airway pressure; pulmonary embolic disease - diagnosis and treatment; adult respiratory distress syndrome; hemodynamics and therapy in ARDS; respiratory mechanics in ARDS patients; new modes of ventilatory support; septic shock; to PEEP or not to PEEP ARDS patients; monitoring cardiopulmonary function with dual oximetry; ECMO - a view from the East.
