Handbook of Emergencies in Dermatosurgery is a practical, clinically relevant and concise guide to recognizing and managing the emergencies that may arise before, during or after dermatosurgical procedures, prepared in association with the Association of Cutaneous Surgeons of India.
The vast majority of these procedures are performed under local anesthesia in well-controlled outpatient settings, yet anaphylaxis, excessive bleeding, syncope, cardiac events, airway compromise and systemic toxicity can arise and threaten patient safety. This handbook addresses the general emergency itself alongside the complications specific to each procedure, and includes chapters on handling violent patients, fire hazards in the operation theatre and medicolegal emergencies.
The chapters follow the whole continuum of patient safety — preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative vigilance, emergency recognition, crisis management, postoperative surveillance and algorithm-based prevention and intervention — with chapters contributed by neurologists, cardiologists, ophthalmologists and psychiatrists where the emergency crosses specialty lines.
