Stoelting’s Anesthesia and Co-Existing Disease 8th Edition

Book Preface

In 1983, the first edition of Anesthesia and Coexisting Disease by Drs. Robert K. Stoelting and Stephen F. Dierdorf was published with the stated goal “to provide a concise description of the pathophysiology of disease states and their medical manage-ment that is relevant to the care of the patient in the periopera-tive period.” Beginning with the fifth edition Drs. Roberta Hines and Kathrine Marschall assumed the editorship, continu-ing for the sixth and seventh editions. Succeeding Dr. Marschall for the eighth edition is a new editor, Dr. Stephanie B. Jones.
This latest edition of Anesthesia and Coexisting Disease con-tinues the tradition of presenting new, updated, and relevant medical information to the anesthesiology community. A chapter on chronic pain has been added, and new authors have made major updates to several other chapters, including valvular heart disease, pericardial disease and cardiac trauma, endocrine disease, and pediatric and pregnancy-associated diseases. All chapters contain contemporary clinical information, reference to major medical society guidelines, and recommendations that impact the practice of perioperative medicine. In addition, numerous tables, figures, and illustrations have been refreshed and expanded to aid in the understanding of key clinical concepts. We trust that our readers continue to find this text a valuable reference for optimizing patient care.
