Avoiding Common Anesthesia Errors
This pocket book succinctly describes 215 common,
serious errors made by attendings, residents, fellows, CRNAs, and
practicing anesthesiologists in the practice of anesthesia and offers
practical, easy-to-remember tips for avoiding these errors. The book can
easily be read immediately before the start of a rotation or used for
quick reference. Each error is described in a quick-reading one-page
entry that includes a brief clinical scenario, a short review of the
relevant physiology and/or pharmacology, and tips on how to avoid or
resolve the problem. Illustrations are included where appropriate. The
book also includes important chapters on human factors, legal issues,
CPT coding, and how to select a practice.
