Internal Medicine Basics for Anesthesiology

By: Mirrakhimov, Aibek

Anesthesiology is internal medicine practiced at the most critical moments--inside the operating room. Optimal perioperative decision-making demands a deep and practical understanding of chronic medical diseases, their diagnostic evaluation, and strategies for preoperative optimization. Yet, despite the centrality of internal medicine to anesthetic practice and its prominence on American Board of Anesthesiology (ABA) examinations, dedicated resources remain limited. This book is written to close that gap. Organized by organ systems and key internal medicine subspecialties, this text focuses on conditions most relevant to the practicing anesthesiologist and anesthesia trainee. Each chapter follows a consistent, clinically driven structure, covering key signs and symptoms, diagnostic and imaging studies, laboratory interpretation, and common disorders, with an emphasis on anesthetic implications. Complex topics are distilled into high-yield, easy-to-read discussions grounded in real perioperative scenarios. Designed as both a daily reference and a board-review companion, this book bridges theory and practice across cardiopulmonary disease, hematology, nephrology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, oncology, and more. Whether preparing for the ABA examinations or managing medically complex patients in the operating room, anesthesiologists at all stages of training will find this concise, focused guide an essential addition to their professional library.
