Recenzje

"The book is intended for residency but also for all involved in perioperative medicine to increase awareness and competence in a concise manner. In my opinion, the textbook serves well as a quick refresher for anesthesiologists of all ages. ... I recommend the book to all who are eager to practice well and who need a good context for a comprehensive understanding of catastrophic perioperative complications and how to manage them." (Sigridur H. Kalman, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 130 (6), June, 2020)
"The book can be a valuable resource for anesthesia residents, SRNAs, CRNAs, or anesthesiologists. ... The chapters are well organized, convey the right amount of information about the complication and its management, use diagrams, tables, or boxed points to better explain or emphasize learning points, and end with review questions to assess what was retained." (Kevin R Bauereis, Doody's Book Reviews, July 05, 2019)
