Description
Springer Towards Optimal Management of Diabetes in Surgery 1st Editon 2019 Softbound by Sanjeev Kelkar, Shubhangi Muley, Prakash Ambardekar
This book addresses key principles in the optimal management of diabetes to facilitate smooth and safe anesthesia and surgery with the best possible outcomes. It addresses a range of topics, including: diabetic emergencies, glycemic control in emergencies, the routine perioperative setting, preoperative evaluation in routine and emergency surgery, intra- and post-operative management for neurosurgery, cardiothoracic surgery, gestational diabetes, bariatric surgery and other major surgeries. A dedicated chapter on Metabolic Havoc of Uncontrolled Diabetes provides the in-depth understanding of diabetic pathophysiology required in surgical situations, while a special chapter addresses commonly asked questions on surgery and diabetes. Despite many recent advances in surgery, anesthesia, and diabetes research, perioperative diabetes management is often not addressed adequately. This is largely due to an insufficient understanding of insulin physiology and its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics under normal and stressful conditions. The optimal management of surgery in diabetes calls for an integrated, collaborative, and proactive approach. Surgeons, anesthetists and physicians should know the central, basic aspects of perioperative diabetes management and understand the contribution that each one makes to the best outcome, as well as their limitations. Glycemic Control in Perioperative Setting.- Properties of Intravenous Fluids and their Relevance in Perioperative Setting with Diabetes.- Insulin Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics.- Nature of Surgical Stress in Surgery.- Intra and Post operative Management of Routine Surgery.- Emergency Surgery and Diabetes Management.- Perioperative Diabetes Emergencies and their Management.- Special Surgical Situations in Persons with Diabetes.- Metabolic Havoc of Diabetic State and its Implications.- Commonly Asked Questions about Surgery and Diabetes.
