Imagine a world
without anaesthesia. From tooth extraction to painless births, to complex organ
transplants, medical science has advanced leaps and bounds, thanks to
advancements in the field of anaesthesia. Although less celebrated, anaesthesia
has been and always will be a major pillar of support to medical science.
Today, the most
complex surgeries that were once beyond human imagination, are possible due to
parallel developments in the field of anaesthesia. Reversible loss of
consciousness, muscle relaxation, and overall care for the patient when surgery
is in progress, form the essence of anaesthetic practice. Many anaesthetists
are independent practitioners of pain management and in-charge of the ICU’s in
several hospitals.
This book, brings
to the fore, the many intricacies of human lives and how anaesthesia plays a
crucial role in addressing them. The motivation behind writing this, is to
bring to light, the many components of anaesthesia, through the experiences of
the anaesthetist. By focusing on select cases that demanded high levels of
skill, a thorough knowledge of the patient, and an overarching passion for the
field, the author has ensured that this book will be the perfect reference and
aid, when one is confronted with unexpected complexities in one's career as a
practicing anaesthesiologist.
