A handbook to providing medical clearance for anaesthesia. There is information about less painful techniques for administering anaesthesia to children, and discussion of pain prevention and relief and techniques for administering sedatives and analgesics in the office setting.
A handbook to providing medical clearance for anaesthesia, whether for a well child, a child with asthma or another chronic disease, or a child with an acute or recent respiratory infection. There is information about less painful techniques for administering anaesthesia to children, as well as specific information about pain prevention and relief and techniques for administering sedatives and analgesics in the office setting. The contributors address topics such as: anaesthetic agents and induction and monitoring techniques; new NPO guidelines; what it really means to "clear" a child for anaesthesia; realistic risks and complications of anaesthesia; advances in paediatric pain management; the importance of avoiding trauma in the paediatric patient, and how the surgical team detraumatizes the experience; the role of the parent in the operating room; how to answer the questions most frequently asked by parents and children facing anaesthesia and surgery. The text is illustrated with photographs of children and families in the operating room, and of induction techniques, and is enhanced with 52 tables of medications, equipment, assessment tools and guidelines for treatment.
