Part of the "Point of Care Essentials" series, "A Visual Guide to Transesophageal Echocardiography" (TEE) comprises a compact group of cognitive aids ideal as a quick visual reference to be carried and used on the floor and in the operating room. The spiral bound book provides concise instruction on normal and abnormal values, shows the placement and management of the TEE probe, and demonstrates the ASE/SCA twenty view comprehensive TEE examination. Coverage also includes evaluation of myocardial ischemia and assessment of the mitral and aortic valves. Be sure this compact TEE resource is in your pocket! It includes: full-color graphics, illustrations, and photos provide quick memory-joggers for visual learners; laminated cards resist moisture, bending and tearing; and, portable format makes the book a go-anywhere reference.

This manual visually portrays advanced cardiac life support procedures and crisis management algorithms in anesthesia. Pocket sized, spiral bound, and laminated, it was created to be carried and used on the floor and in the operating room. The first section focuses on advanced cardiac life support and covers pulseless electrical activity; ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation; asystole; symptomatic bradycardia; and, amniotic fluid embolism. The second section presents crisis management algorithms for difficult airway; malignant hyperthermia; anaphylaxis; myocardial ischemia; hypotension; hemorrhage/massive transfusion; venous air embolus; total spinal anesthesia; local anesthetic toxicity; transfusion reaction; hypoxemia; pneumothorax; bronchospasm; delayed emergence; oxygen failure, O2 crossover, pipeline failure; and, power failure.

This manual visually demonstrates the most common regional blocks in anesthesiology and provides simple, effective direction at the point of care. Pocket sized, spiral bound, and laminated, it was created to be carried and used on the floor and in the operating room. The first section focuses on the upper extremity, including ultrasound-guided interscalene, supraclavicular, infraclavicular, and axillary blocks and ultrasound-guided distal upper extremity. The second section covers the lower extremity, including ultrasound-guided subgluteal sciatic, popliteal, lumbar plexus, femoral nerve, and ankle blocks. The third section covers truncal blocks, including ultrasound-guided TAP and paravertebral blocks. Also included are guidelines on regional anesthesia in the anticoagulated patient.
