APPENDIX A: Pediatric Anesthesia Drugs and Other Treatments in the Perioperative Period.

Millions of pediatric patients receive anesthetics every year, but it has been established that those under 12 months of age have a higher risk of poor outcomes. Well established at the forefront of the field, and founded and edited by one of its modern pioneers, Pediatric Anesthesia is renowned for the excellence of its practical guidance. Aimed at pediatric anesthetists, anesthetists, and trainee anesthetists, this new edition covers the use of anesthesia on newborns to young adults, placing a strong emphasis on the most recent and important information from research and publications.
