Anesthesiology Updates for Postgraduates first published in 2010 has achieved increasing acclaim with each successive two editions. In this edition, some esteemed teachers and examiners across the country have put forth their suggestions on some commonly encountered long and short cases for final MD, DA and DNB practical examination of anesthesiology. This addition has been made with the intention of spreading the mode of discussion of some eloquent teachers of anesthesiology, whose suggestions are worth to include in achieving a good anesthetic management skill for a postgraduate student. Senior esteemed teachers can count on years of experience to direct students for logistic approach of Must Know part during their training period through an easy-to-follow sequence of chapters. No small book can do justice to a large syllabus of anesthesiology for postgraduates, but, chapters of this edition are backed up with an information-packed references which provide succinct and up-to-date advice for practical application along with the new insights into the decision-making process. This book may be used as a learning aid or as a checklist for preparation of postgraduate practical examination of students of anesthesiology.

12Preface to the Third Edition
This book has evolved over last eight years from the interactions between teachers and postgraduate students from eight annual postgraduate assemblies conducted by Department of Anesthesiology of Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research and Seth Sukhlal Karnani Memorial (SSKM) Hospital, Kolkata, West Bengal, India.
The greater part of the book is distilled from the work of eminent and dedicated teachers and their experiences of sharing knowledge with their beloved students. The book is not a substitute for the major anesthetic texts, but concentrates on principles of management of the most challenging anesthetic cases.
The book has resulted in the concept of “Educational spiral”, to understand the need to identify what are ‘essential’ and what are ‘not so essential’. Knowledge gathering may spiral out from core knowledge, without which the basic objective of the book would remain unfilled. Must learn area based on the health need of patients, task to be performed by the students for patients and community need depending on the socioeconomic situations, resources available and keeping pace with the scientific advancements.
We have been encouraged by many postgraduate students who have told us that discussions of postgraduate assemblies helped them immensely in preparation for their examination. Topics are chosen for review based on questions and contentions raised by anesthesiology residents. Based on their needs, with an aim to prepare themselves for various postgraduates examinations, we are delighted to have been able to provide this assistance and hope that the book will be even more useful to them.
I like to express my deep gratitude to all those who have nobly contributed to the book, to the reader for their interest and to those who have offered constructive criticism.

13Preface to the Second Edition
The first edition of this book has achieved its purpose in the last one year, having helped our beloved students to prepare their curriculum. We are thankful to all our postgraduate students for their review, criticism, patience and perseverance which have helped us to refine the second edition and screen out certain unintentional errors.
Despite our sincere efforts, the first edition of the book was printed with some technical errors. Therefore, in this edition, the entire book has been revised, with a view to eliminate errors and to incorporate valuable suggestions from the readers. With an aim to update the topics in tune to the recent trends of MD, DA or DNB examination, we have added some new chapters to the book. However, in the interest of the readers, in order to limit the number of pages for ease of reading, we have been unable to include certain previous chapters. This edition will act as a supplement to the previous edition. It is our firm conviction that the book will be of substantial help to all postgraduate students.
The inspiration, encouragement, inputs and moral support we have received from all the students and teachers are commendable. We express immense gratitude to all our students and teachers for their inspiration and incredible support.
