This volume represents selected topics in Computing in
Anesthesia and Intensive Care and contains the proceedings
of the Second International Symposium, held in Rotterdam,
September 6-10, 1983.
This monograph provides the role of Computing in Anes
thesia and Intensive Care, covering a wide range of topics:
Education, Monitoring, Innovative Techniques, Computer
Assisted Intravenous Anesthesia, Data Management and Closed
Loop Systems.
At tre outset, I must thank the keynote speakers and
others for submitting their manuscripts promptly. I express
my gratitude to R.W. Patterson, Simon Heij and Bas van der
Borden for helping me to edit this volume. Finally, thanks
are due to E.N.R. Rulf, Norma van Toornburg and Claudia
Dijkstra for their help and cooperation.
