Synopsis

A full-color photographic manual INSTRUMENTATION FOR THE OPERATING ROOM familiarizes perioperative and operating room personnel with today's surgical instruments for all the major surgical procedures. Reflecting the advances of modern technology, this text features the most current instrumentation and equipment available, including new instruments for endoscopic surgery, neurosurgery, ophthalmic surgery, orthopedic surgery, and oral, maxilla, and facial surgery. All images are new and done in digital photography to illustrate the necessary detail of instruments and improve image clarity, making this a valuable reference for operating room personnel as well as for students in perioperative nursing and surgical technology programs. Features: * All images completely new and photographed in full color. * All images shot in digital photography to enhance the clarity and detail of the surgical instruments. * Inserted close-up shots of instrument tips highlight the distinguishing characteristics of otherwise similar-appearing surgical tools. * Photographs of new surgical instruments, including microsurgical instruments in neuro, cardiovascular, and orthopedic surgery, address the latest in surgical instrument advances. * Instruments are logically organized by surgical procedure within each surgical speciality for easy access. * Photographs of surgical instrument sets, along with accessory and specialized instruments, provide the broadest variety of instruments without redundancy.
