Anesthesia for Fetal Intervention and Surgery is directed towards those medical specialists who care for fetal patients, including general obstetricians, neonatologists, genetic counsellors, pediatric surgeons, perinatologists, pediatricians, pediatric subspecialists, obstetric anesthesiologists, and pediatric anesthesiologists. This textbook contains all aspects of these cases, from pharmacology and physiology of the fetal patient and mother to specific techniques for open surgery, fetoscopic surgery, and EXIT procedures. By addressing and clarifying these issues, Anesthesia for Fetal Intervention and Surgery contributes greatly to a cohesive approach to the management and treatment of the fetal patient.
