The Anesthesia Technician and Technologist’s Manual offers a comprehensive review of the core knowledge necessary for the day-to-day workflow of an anesthesia technician or technologist.

To help the reader maximize study time or just focus on areas he or she needs the most help, the text is arranged in seven sections: Careers in Anesthesia Technology, Anatomy, Physiology and Pharmacology, Principles of Anesthesia, Equipment Setup, Operation and Maintenance, Operating Room and Hospital Environment, Operating Room emergencies, and Acronyms and Abbreviations.

This textbook provides the necessary support to anyone attending a formal anesthesia technician educational program, studying for certification, or simply looking to advance their “on the job” knowledge. All royalties from the sale of this book will be donated to the Foundation for Anesthesia Education and Research.
