Physics for EDAIC (part-1)
The ‘Physics for EDAIC module, Part-1’ (part of the PHYSICS module) is designed to help the candidates understand the principles of applied physics within the scope of graduate and post-graduate anaesthesia examinations/ syllabus. Part-1 of the series focuses on
- Introduction of base units used for measurement in anaesthesia
- Simple mechanics
- Basic and applied aspects of electric current
Heart failure module
The ‘Heart failure module’ (part of the Applied or Clinical CVS manual) is designed to help the candidates understand this complex topic focusing on:
- pathophysiology, clinical presentation and management of heart failure,
- formulation of a systematic approach towards the pre-op evaluation and optimisation of patients; and
- the perioperative considerations surrounding the management of a patient with a history of heart failure posted for non-cardiac surgery.
Radiology for the Anaesthetist
‘Radiology for the Anaesthetist’ is a must-have resource for postgraduate anaesthesia students, particularly those preparing for their examinations. The radiology manual is curated in a simplistic form and richly supplemented with radiography films and explanatory diagrams to help the reader grasp the tough concepts.
The module includes x-ray, CT scan, MRI and Ultrasound basics with commonly presented radiographic films. The study material is designed in a way that would help you successfully identify the presented specimen/ film and productively answer the ensuing set of questions from the examiner. The discussion revolves around the frequently asked questions in post-graduate examinations (MCQ and Viva-based), including EDAIC, FRCA, FCAI, DNB and MD formats.
Cardiopulmonary bypass Module
The ‘Cardiopulmonary bypass module' (part of the Applied or Clinical CVS manual) is designed to help the candidates understand this complex topic focusing on:
-
- The basic CPB circuitry.
- Myocardial injury and preservation during CPB.
- Conduct and complications of CPB.
- The perioperative considerations surrounding the management of a patient undergoing CPB.
CARDIOMYOPATHIES MODULE
The 'Cardiomyopathies module' (part of the Applied or Clinical CVS manual) is designed to cover the most relevant aspects of the disease in an easy to understand and memorise format.
The study material primarily focuses on the most pertinent content for candidates preparing for post-graduate anaesthesia examinations, particularly the EDAIC/ FRCA/ FCAI exams.
INFECTIVE ENDOCARDITIS MODULE
The infective endocarditis module covers the salient features of the disease, with emphasis on recent updates on the antibiotic prophylaxis recommendations.
The study material is primarily focussed on the content that is most relevant for candidates sitting for post graduate anaesthesia examinations, particularly the EDAIC/FRCA/FCAI exams.
ECG for the Anaesthetist.
'ECG for the Anaesthetist' is not only a must-have resource for postgraduate students preparing for their examination, but it aims to be an excellent and handy reference book for practising fellows. The manual is curated in a simplistic form and richly supplemented with explanatory diagrams to help the reader grasp the concepts. It intends to take the reader from the very basics of ECG to complex advanced topics in an effortless manner.
ANAESTHETIC IMPLICATIONS OF THE CARDIAC IMPLANTABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICES (CIEDs)
The chapter covers the basic understanding of device mechanics, common concerns surrounding the presence of CIED in the patient in the peri-op setting, the anaesthetic management of a case with PPM/AICD posted for non-cardiac surgery and some unique areas of concern in the patients with CIEDs.
In the end, we have included a section of the "Most commonly asked questions" in viva-sessions of EDAIC, FRCA and FCAI examinations.
Anaesthetic considerations in a hypertensive patient posted for non-cardiac surgery.
This chapter covers the pre-op evaluation, optimisation strategies, anaesthesia-related concerns and perioperative management of patients with hypertension posted for non-cardiac surgery. Questions on 'Hypertension' are asked with HTN forming the as 'sole-morbidity' or as a part of 'multiple comorbidities' scenarios.
Candidates should know the definition and staging/grading of HTN, pathophysiology, anaesthetic implications of the disease, and the current guidelines on peri-op case management.
In this chapter, we have comprehensively covered the major concerns associated with the presence of hypertension in a patient posted for non-cardiac surgery with due regards to syllabus recommendations of the European/UK board syllabus for EDAIC/FRCA.
