This updated and revised version of Eltringham's "Post Anaesthetic Recovery" contains sections each devoted to the current best practice in a particular area. It describes the major problems that may be encountered during recovery from anaesthesia and suggests how they may be avoided by careful monitoring, vigilant nursing and sound organization. Post-Operative Recovery and Pain Relief will thus be of interest not only to nursing staff working in operating theatres and post-operative care units, but also to those working in surgical units, house officers and junior anaesthetists.
