📘 Savage & Aronson’s Comprehensive Textbook of Perioperative and Critical Care Echocardiography (3rd Edition)
🩺 Book Description
Savage & Aronson’s Comprehensive Textbook of Perioperative and Critical Care Echocardiography is considered one of the most authoritative and practical resources for clinicians involved in the use of echocardiography during surgery and in critically ill patients.
This updated 3rd edition provides a detailed, structured approach to performing and interpreting Transesophageal Echocardiography (TEE) and Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE) in both perioperative and critical care settings. Written by internationally recognized experts, the book is aligned with the latest recommendations from the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) and the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists (SCA).
Richly illustrated with high-quality echocardiographic images, diagrams, and step-by-step guides, the textbook addresses the full spectrum of perioperative cardiac imaging—making it essential for anesthesiologists, intensivists, cardiologists, and other physicians managing complex, high-risk patients.
The text also emphasizes the role of echocardiography in hemodynamic monitoring, emergency decision-making, ICU management, and cardiac surgical procedures, offering practical insights applicable across multiple specialties.
