Anestesia

Il presente manuale è stato concepito con l’intento di fornire ai medici veterinari un riferimento strutturato, completo e clinicamente orientato nell’ambito dell’anestesia locoregionale e della gestione del dolore. L’opera si rivolge tanto al clinico generalista interessato ad approfondire le basi teorico-pratiche delle tecniche regionali, quanto allo specialista desideroso di perfezionare procedure interventistiche avanzate. L’architettura del testo è stata sviluppata secondo criteri di rigore metodologico, chiarezza espositiva e applicabilità clinica, con l’obiettivo di integrare evidenze scientifiche aggiornate e protocolli operativi riproducibili nella pratica quotidiana.Negli ultimi decenni l’anestesia veterinaria ha conosciuto un’evoluzione sostanziale, favorita dalla disponibilità di farmaci con migliori profili di sicurezza, tecnologie di monitoraggio avanzate e sistemi di imaging ad alta risoluzione. Tuttavia, il principale determinante della sicurezza perioperatoria rimane il professionista: la qualità del ragionamento clinico, la capacità decisionale e il livello di formazione continua. L’anestesia locoregionale rappresenta un paradigma di tale evoluzione. Essa non è intrinsecamente esente da rischi, ma diviene altamente sicura quando applicata sulla base di una solida conoscenza anatomica, di un’esecuzione tecnica accurata e di un approccio clinico razionale.Nonostante i progressi compiuti nella gestione del dolore perioperatorio e cronico, la traduzione sistematica delle evidenze scientifiche nella pratica clinica quotidiana rimane una sfida. Il presente volume affronta tale complessità integrando anatomia applicata, farmacologia clinica, tecniche ecoguidate e strategie procedurali in un impianto coerente e strutturato.L’auspicio è che questo manuale contribuisca non soltanto a supportare le decisioni cliniche, ma anche a promuovere un progressivo innalzamento degli standard assistenziali nella medicina veterinaria.Dr. Robert Trujanovic

Edizione italiana a cura di Noemi Romagnoli e Carlotta Lambertini - Prima edizione italiana sulla seconda in lingua inglese   Lo scopo di questa seconda edizione è quello di ampliare questa guida di agile fruizione. Il volume si concentra sullo sviluppo di un protocollo di anestesia bilanciata e di un'adeguata analgesia multimodale, attraverso l'inclusione di una serie di autori esperti nel loro campo. Man mano che il campo dell'anestesia veterinaria si evolve e diventa più complesso, il ruolo dell'anestesista in quanto protettore del paziente rimane fondamentale.L'intenzione degli autori è quella di fornire informazioni basate sull'evidenza per favorire il processo anestetico, la scelta dei protocolli per i pazienti e la previsione e la gestione delle potenziali complicanze anestetiche.Tuttavia, questo lavoro riflette anche le scelte e le esperienze personali degli autori. La nostra speranza è che questo testo fornisca un valido strumento con cui gestire l'anestesia in situazioni varie e che venga sfruttato da diversi anestesisti in quanto custodi dei loro pazienti.
