Neonatal Resuscitation 402 Index 441155 This page intentionally left blank Preface Obstetric anesthesia is a rapidly expanding, constantly evolving fi eld; some years ago we saw a need for a practical guide to patient care and management—one that could be consulted quickly (and often) to outline a concrete course of clinical management, covering how to manage specifi c patients in specifi c situations. What drug to give, how to give it, how much to give, and when to stop and try something different. Our goal has been to provide anesthesiologists and anes- thetists, both in training and in practice, with that practical reference. Our fi rst attempt to provide such a reference met many of these objectives, but in one area fell far below our vision. In 2002 we pub- lished the H andbook of Obstetric Anesthesia with a different publisher, vii who had their own vision for the text, and while the information and style of the Handbook were what we envisioned, its physical form was not. Rather than being a pocket-sized, inexpensive, “ready reference,” it was a larger, hardcover text. While visually appealing, it was more at home on a bookshelf than in the pocket of a scrub suit or on an anesthesia cart. With our new partnership with Oxford University Press, we have at last achieved what we set out to do 10 years ago. We have worked diligently to make the information easy to use—when possible, we have tried to distill essential information into tables, charts, diagrams, and fl owcharts that can be quickly accessed and applied. We have used bullet points to highlight key points of management, and the essential background, rationale, and science behind clinical decision making. This is not intended to be an exhaustive reference textbook, although the readings and references at the end of each chapter do provide additional background and the basis for further study. Of course, there is usually more than one means to an end, but where our experience has shown one approach works best, we’ve advocated it. Where there are equally viable options, we’ve tried to present each, with the advantages and disadvantages of alternative approaches. E C All three of us have dedicated our careers to the anesthetic care A EF of obstetric patients, as have our contributors. We care for these R P patients and deal with these problems every day. O bstetric Anesthesia draws on our experience and study to tell you what we do, how we do it, and why. Craig M. Palmer, MD Robert D’Angelo, MD Michael J. Paech, FANZCA viii Contributors Valerie A.
