Manual of Pediatric Anesthesia – 2nd Edition

Manual of Pediatric Anesthesia – 2nd Edition is an essential clinical guide tailored for anesthesiologists, pediatric residents, medical students, nurse anesthetists, and all healthcare professionals involved in the care of children undergoing anesthesia. This widely respected manual bridges core theory with real-world practice, making complex pediatric anesthesia principles practical, understandable, and directly applicable to daily clinical situations.

Children are not “small adults” — their anatomy, physiology, and responses to anesthetic drugs differ significantly. This 2nd edition recognizes those differences and provides up-to-date, evidence-based guidance on safe, effective anesthesia care from the neonate through adolescence. With a strong focus on practicality, the text uses clear language, logical organization, and clinical scenarios to guide learners through preparation, airway management, drug selection, monitoring, and problem solving in pediatric anesthesia.
