Yao & Artusio's Anesthesiology: Problem-Oriented Patient Management

Rating:
Summary: an overly comprehensive review
Review: I do agree that this textbook is a very well-done, well written book with a lot of value for anesthesiologists. However, as a tool for oral board study it is actually a bit too comprehensive and inclusive. Take my word for it, during your oral board exam you are not going to be asked about histologic changes in the bronchial mucosa of the asthmatic or the synthetic pathway of catecholamines. The person studying for the oral anesthesiology board doesn't have time to waste learning material that he or she doesn't need to know. I recommend instead Clinical Cases in Anesthesia by Reed. Same format, much more focused on the material that the anesthesiologist must know for the oral exam.

Summary: NICE BOOK
Review: WRITTEN IN A FORMAT OF QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS THAT MAKES YOUR PREPERATION FOR THE BOARD MUUCH MORE YIELDED.A VERY GOOD SUPPLEMENT FOR ANESTHESIA PREPERATION
