Reviews
'This book is an excellent read for the clinical anesthesiologist and certified registered nurse anesthetist who provides anesthesia to these cases and for future medical students and residents across subspecialties who will master these techniques and provide us with the next robotic revolution. I do believe the future is very bright for robotics in medicine and we are just witnessing the beginning.' Hamdy Awad, Anesthesia & Analgesia
'Overall, the majority of this book is applicable to perioperative practitioners but especially anaesthetic practitioners, anaesthetists, nurses, physician associates responsible for patient positioning, preoperative assessment, investigations whilst highlighting potential complications associated with robotic-assisted surgery.' Jenny Abraham, Journal of Perioperative Practice
