Translation of Regional Anesthesia in Trauma, A case-Based Approach, Cambridge University Press


  1. Based on very concrete practical cases organised according to topic, this work describes the contribution of locoregional anaesthesia to the management of acute pain in traumatology: blunt chest wounds, amputations, limb fractures, burns, etc.
  2. It also describes the approach to be taken in the case of nerve lesions, the risk of compartment syndrome and other procedures depending on the specific nature of certain conditions (pregnant women, obese patients, elderly patients, children).
  3. Using a highly dynamic approach, the reader is asked to make a choice about analgesic techniques depending on the medical and surgical situation in question. The technical aspects of locoregional anaesthesia in the situations are described, with particular development of echoguiding techniques.
  4. This book is useful for anaesthesia-resuscitation doctors and students as well as emergency and prehospital doctors.
