Steward's Manual of Pediatric Anesthesia

By Jerrold Lerman and Charles J. Coté

For more than four decades, Steward's Manual of Pediatric Anesthesia has been the trusted, practical companion for clinicians who care for infants and children in the perioperative setting. Now in its 8th Edition, this book continues its legacy as an indispensable guide, offering clear, concise, and clinically grounded instruction for residents, general anesthesiologists, nurse anesthetists, and pediatric anesthesia specialists. Its streamlined format and evidence-informed approach make it a go-to reference in the operating room and beyond. This latest edition provides comprehensive coverage of the full spectrum of pediatric anesthetic practice, beginning with foundational physiology, pharmacology, and airway management, and extending through the intricacies of monitoring, regional anesthesia, and perioperative fluid and blood product therapy. Expertly written chapters on neurosurgery, cardiology, orthopedics, trauma, transplantation, and a wide range of specialty surgeries equip clinicians to navigate even the most complex cases with confidence. Enhanced sections on special medical conditions, anesthesia outside the operating room, and postoperative care reflect current challenges and evolving standards in pediatric practice. Richly supplemented with practical appendices and an extensive Table of Pediatric Syndromes--each summarizing key anesthetic implications--this edition reinforces its value as both a quick reference and a comprehensive educational tool. Whether used at the bedside, in the operating theater, or during study and preparation, Steward's Manual of Pediatric Anesthesia, 8th Edition remains essential reading for anyone committed to delivering safe, informed, and compassionate anesthesia care to children.
