Neuroanesthesia: A Problem-Based Learning Approach cover

Neuroanesthesia: A Problem-Based Learning Approach provides an up-to-date and comprehensive review of the neuroanesthesia subspecialty. Its problem-based format incorporates a pool of practical, multiple-choice questions for self-assessment. Each of its 29 case-based chapters is accompanied by 10 questions and answers, accessible online in a full practice exam. The cases presented are also unique, as each chapter starts with a case description, usually a compilation of several actual cases; it then branches out through case-based questions, to increasingly complex situations. This structure is designed to create an authentic experience that mirrors that of an oral board examination. The discussion sections that follow offer a comprehensive approach to the chapter's subject matter, thus creating a modern, complete, and up-to-date medical review of that topic. This book is equally a solid reference compendium of neuroanesthesia topics and a comprehensive review to assist the general practitioner both in day-to-day practice and during preparation for certification exams. Its problem-based format makes it an ideal resource for the lifelong learner and the modern realities of education.

Each case progresses from the basic to the more complex topics, making it a valuable resource for both inexperienced neuroanesthesiologists and as a reminder of already known subjects for more seasoned practitioners who are seeking a refresher text. I recommend this book as both a useful reference manual and an excellent educational resource. * Michael Dinsmore, BSc, PhD, MD, FRCPC, Canadian Journal of Anesthesia *
