In this book, algorithms or decision trees are used to demonstrate the concept of decision making in the practice of anaesthesiology. Each algorithm depicts the decision points involved and their logical results, progressing from a clinical or laboratory sign/symptom through the steps required to diagnose and treat the given condition. The text offers comments pertinent to various points on the tree. The format, a precursor of computerized teaching methods, provides a tool for teaching or reviewing the concepts and procedures of anaesthesiology in both emergency and elective surgical settings.

Decision making in anesthesiology (Clinical decision making series)

All the contributors to this new book are from New York University's Institute of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. The book's format follows other "Decision Making" series titles, with an algorithm on one page and descriptive text facing it. Discussions on all aspects of cosmesis and reconstruction, from oculoplastic surgery and head and neck reconstruction to breast, hand, and genitourinary reconstructive surgery, are included.

Decision Making in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

S.R. Colen MD

Using algorithms and a brief accompanying text, the crucial clinical decisions in genitourinary disease are portrayed in this text. The decision trees provide graphic descriptions of when to hospitalize or discharge; whether to operate or medicate; when to accept or question clinical, laboratory or radiologic signs; and when to do nothing. Key decision trees are annotated and rationales for the decisions elaborated in the text.

Decision making in urology (Clinical decision making series)

Martin I. Resnick

Addresses aspects of the failure of organ systems and postoperative complications of immunologic and infectious origin. Emphasis is placed on treatment rather than on aetiology and pathophysiology, and diagnosis.

Current Therapy in Critical Care Medicine

Parillo MD, J.E.

The decision-making process used in small animal surgery is presented in algorithmic form and is augmented by explanatory text. Alternative treatments are clearly presented. The focus of each chapter is provided by a diagnostic algorithm. This proceeds from the presenting of signs or symptoms through the decisions required to make a definitive diagnosis. The book is intended to serve as an aide-memoire for the practising veterinary surgeon and and suggests alternatives in approach problems in small animal surgery. Contributing authors were selected on the basis of special expertise in their fields, and each chapter represents an individual approach and judgment on a specific problem.
