This highly practical, illustrated guide continues to provide an up-to-date introduction to anaesthetic equipment and its use in clinical practice. An invaluable resource for all those who work with anaesthetic equipment, including anaesthetists studying for the FRCA examinations, nurses and operating department practitioners, this new edition has been completely updated to reflect current equipment and training requirements.

Lavishly illustrated throughout with colour photos and clearly-drawn line illustrations, Essentials of Anaesthetic Equipment, third edition, retains the superbly organized and easy-to-read format that has made the previous two editions such a success.
