Anesthésie-réanimation en chirurgie thoracique (PDF)

authored by Marc Leone and Jean Bussières
This reference work describes the latest developments in minimally invasive anesthetic surgical methods. • This book describes all of the advancements, both anesthetic and surgical, in addition to basic concepts that are crucial to this type of anesthesia. • Thanks to surgery assisted by video-thoracoscopy (VATS), thoracic surgery has been moving toward minimally invasive procedures for a century. As a result, the anesthesiologist must modify his or her methods and practice. New bronchial blockers have significantly changed pulmonary isolation, single-lung ventilation is becoming more “protective,” and analgesia is adjusted to VATS mini-incisions. The reader will get all the information needed to handle anesthesia for various types of surgery. An explicit explanation of postoperative care allows for better communication and understanding with the surgeons. • This reference work, written by eminent members of the global francophone community, is intended for all anesthesiologists-reanimators involved in thoracic surgery, whether they are junior or senior practitioners.
