The perfect execution of a minimally invasive operative technique is only part of the equation for ensuring a favorable surgical outcome. It is also essential to have a complete under- standing of the entire spectrum of perioperative care, including preoperative evaluation, technique selection, and postoperative management. Further, it is important to understand the physio- logic impact of the CO2 pneumoperitoneum. The SAGES Manual: Perioperative Care in Minimally Invasive Surgery provides strategies for successful patient management before, during, and after laparoscopic surgery.
This easy-to-read manual includes comprehensive and authorita- tive coverage of the following perioperative concepts and strate- gies that not only optimize outcomes, but also ensures quality patient care beyond the operating room:
Guidelines for preoperative evaluation of healthy and complex patients.
Strategies for successful outcomes, including OR setup, patient positioning, anesthetic considerations, exposure technique, port closure method, and hernia prevention.
Multiple port arrangements for most operations and port placement schemes that take into account the BMI of the patient.
Managing trocar placement-related bleeding, prophylaxis against DVT, prevention of intraoperative hypothermia, and subcutaneous emphysema.
When to convert to an open procedure.
Physiologic, immunologic and oncologic implications of CO2 pneumoperitoneum, prevention of port-site tumors, minimiz- ing the risk of gas embolism.
Postoperative considerations including fluid replacement, ambulation, and early postoperative performance criteria.
The SAGES Manual: Perioperative Care in Minimally Invasive Surgery is written by recognized experts and reflects the Society`s commit- ment to surgical education. ISBN - 9788181285805
