With a rapidly-expanding population of individuals over the age of 65, the need for a definitive reference in the subspecialty area of anaethesia has become obvious. A comprehensive text on geriatric anaesthesia, this book provides a reference for those who participate in the management of elderly individuals who require anaesthesia and surgery. Definitive information is provided on basic science and the management of day-to-day problems faced by anaesthetists when taking care of elderly patients.
