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 patient post-cardiac transplant
With an increasing number of cardiac transplants being conducted every year, anaesthesiologists are faced with the management of post-transplant patients for both cardiac and non-cardiac surgeries/procedures.
This topic is one of the most frequently asked Viva and MCQ question in post-graduate anaesthesia examinations, and candidates should know the pathophysiology and clinical implications of the transplant.
In this chapter, we have comprehensively covered the major concerns faced by anesthesiologists in post-transplant patients while covering the scope of examination at the same time.
‘Valvular heart diseases and anaesthetic implications’.
'Anaesthetic implications of common valvular heart diseases' is a frequently asked topic in both Viva and MCQ based post-graduate anaesthesia examinations. Candidates should know the pathophysiology and clinical implications of common valvular heart diseases.
In this chapter, we have comprehensively covered the major concerns faced by anesthesiologists in peri-op care of patients with valvular heart diseases.
The chapter is primarily focussed on the theory that is most relevant from the EDAIC/FRCA point of view.
Physics for EDAIC (part-2)
