There’s a greatly expanded section on post operative nausea and vomiting with risk factors and recommendations for PONV prevention. The environmental impact of volatile anesthetics is new as is the section on risks of intubating patients with an airborne infectious disease (e.g. COVID) and the psychological risks of practicing in an under-manned, over-stressed specialty (e.g. burn-out).

Medical Students and Resident Rotators

Unlike the typical introductory textbook, Anesthesia Basics for Medical Students and Resident Rotators can be read in a single afternoon. Covering many of the same topics as Dr. Lundell’s earlier book, this text has updates and expanded information targeted specifically for students and residents on a brief anesthesia rotation. While Anesthesia Basics for Medical Students and Resident Rotators is not a “tips and tricks” book to help you ace your rotation, mastering the material in it will not only ensure you do well on your rotation, but will provide insight and experience that will help you and your patients in all anesthesia-related interactions in the future.

Student, resident or attending, rotator or not—anyone involved in medicine who has a desire to learn more about anesthesia will benefit from this book. It is a useful introduction to the specialty and a good way to gain familiarity with the practice of anesthesia without drowning in the details or excessive over-simplification.

Spend an afternoon learning some of the hows and whys of anesthesia. Learn about intraoperative monitors, fluid management, OR ventilators and more.
