Description
Handbook of Cardiac Critical Care and Anaesthesia is a practical, clinically oriented guide designed for anesthesiologists, critical care physicians, and perioperative teams involved in the management of patients undergoing cardiac surgery or interventions. Its concise, bedside-friendly format ensures quick access to essential information for decision-making in high-acuity settings.
The handbook begins with a review of cardiovascular physiology and pathophysiology, highlighting the unique considerations in patients with cardiac disease. Topics include myocardial performance, hemodynamics, preload, afterload, contractility, and interactions between the heart, lungs, and vascular system. Understanding these fundamentals is critical for optimizing perioperative and critical care management.
Comprehensive coverage is provided for perioperative anesthesia in cardiac surgery, including coronary artery bypass grafting, valve surgery, congenital heart procedures, aortic surgery, and heart transplantation. Preoperative assessment, intraoperative anesthetic strategies, monitoring, and postoperative care are discussed in a stepwise and clinically relevant manner.
The book also emphasizes cardiac critical care, addressing postoperative ICU management, hemodynamic optimization, ventilatory strategies, fluid and electrolyte management, arrhythmia control, and management of low cardiac output states. Practical guidance is provided for the use of inotropes, vasopressors, and mechanical circulatory support devices such as intra-aortic balloon pumps and ECMO.
Special topics include management of complex patients, including those with multiple comorbidities, advanced heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, and congenital heart disease. Emergency scenarios, troubleshooting, and complication management are highlighted with practical algorithms and bedside tips to support rapid decision-making.
Illustrations, tables, and flowcharts are extensively used to summarize key information, providing visual aids that enhance understanding and facilitate quick reference. Checklists and practical tips allow clinicians to streamline care, maintain safety, and reduce perioperative risk.
Key features include:
-
Stepwise perioperative and ICU management strategies
-
Lesion- and procedure-specific guidance for cardiac surgery
-
Evidence-based protocols for hemodynamic and ventilatory support
-
Algorithms for complication recognition and management
-
Quick-reference tables and clinical pearls
The writing style is concise, clinically focused, and designed for rapid consultation. The handbook is suitable for residents, fellows, and practicing clinicians who require a reliable reference during high-pressure cardiac anesthesia and critical care scenarios.
