Authored by Sanjay Datta and supported by Scott Segal and Bhavani Shankar Kodali, it addresses maternal physiological changes across pregnancy, labor, and the postpartum period, along with local anesthetic and perinatal pharmacology. The handbook also covers drug interactions, uteroplacental blood flow, and pain management during labor and delivery, while incorporating updated references, reorganized chapters, and revised figures for practical use.","Obstetric Anesthesia Handbook  \nFifth Edition  \nOBSTETRIC ANESTHESIA HANDBOOK  \nFifth Edition  \nSanjay Datta, MD, FFARCS (Eng)  \nProfessor of Anesthesia Brigham and Women’s Hospital Harvard Medical School Boston, MA, USA  \nBhavani Shankar Kodali, MD  \nAssociate Professor of Anesthesia Brigham and Women’s Hospital Harvard Medical School  \nBoston, MA, USA  \nScott Segal, MD, MHCM  \nAssociate Professor of Anesthesia Brigham and Women’s Hospital Harvard Medical School  \nBoston, MA, USA  \n1 3  \nSanjay Datta  \nProfessor of Anesthesia Brigham & Women’s Hospital Harvard Medical School Boston, MA, USA[sdatta@partners.org](sdatta@partners.org)  \nScott Segal  \nAssociate Professor of Anesthesia  \nBrigham & Women’s Hospital Harvard Medical School Boston, MA, USA[bssegal@zeus.bwh.harvard.edu](bssegal@zeus.bwh.harvard.edu)  \nBhavani Shankar Kodali Associate Professor of  \nAnesthesia  \nBrigham & Women’s Hospital Harvard Medical School Boston, MA, USA [bkodali@partners.org](bkodali@partners.org)  \nISBN 978-0-387-88601-5 e-ISBN 978-0-387-88602-2  \nDOI 10.1007/978-0-387-88602-2  \nSpringer New York Dordrecht Heidelberg London Library of Congress Control Number: 2009938708  \n© Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2006, 2010  \nAll rights reserved.

As former students and now colleagues of our mentor, we have attempted to update this classic and widely read book to reflect the constantly evolving face of obstetric anesthesiology. It is astounding to envision the initial writing of this text, nearly 20 years ago, in an era before the ubiquitous availability of online search tools, downloadable papers, and searchable textbooks. The early editions were formed predominantly out of Dr. Datta’s personal command of the field, its literature, and his personal teaching files. Many benefited from the depth and breadth of his wisdom presented in the original Handbook, and it is now our privilege to help pass on this work to the next generation of residents, fellows, and obstetric anesthesia practitioners around the world. We have attempted to retain the compact style of the original single-author version, while adding some newer material, reorganizing some chapters to enhance their utility, updating references, and revising some figures and appendices. We hope you will find it as helpful in your practice as it is in ours.  \nScott Segal, MD  \nBhavani Shankar Kodali, MD  \nPreface to the First Edition  \n􀀂  \nOne of the major “perks” of an academic anesthesiologist is the opportunity to interact with residents and fellows. Most of them are bright, energetic, and hardworking individuals.
