Extensively revised to cover recent advances in cardiac surgery, the fourth edition of Bojar's Manual of Perioperative Care in Adult Cardiac Surgery remains the gold standard for management of adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

  • Completely updated references
  • Extensive illustrations, including NEW figures depicting operative techniques
  • 14 helpful appendices covering order and flow sheets, protocols, commonly used drug dosages, and procedures



Practical and accessible, the Manual of Perioperative Care in Adult Cardiac Surgery is the essential reference guide to cardiac surgical patient care.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A MUST resource for those caring for Cardiac surgery patients
This is a "bible" for anyone involved in the care of these patients. I refer to it on a daily basis and review several times in a day's work. Highly recommended.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - CardioThoracic "Bible"
I would recommend this book to all who work with any aspect of the heart. It's known on my unit and many other places as the Cardio Thoracic "Bible", and is properly named as such. The information relayed is clear and concise, and the photos are very detailed. It has helped me on many occasions for quick reference and has served as great reading material!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - open heart recovery
This book should be required for all open heart recovery nurses, new or experienced, to read and have at the bedside. Contains valuable information in an easy to read format.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Job Bob!
This book is a must for anyone taking care of cardiac patients. I had older editions when a resident and fellow. Am an attending now and picked up the new edition as its a good little reference book. Still use it to brush-up on stuff before 'pimping' residents and fellows!


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Manual of Perioperative Care in Adult Cardiac Surgery
This is a very good reference text for anybody working in the area of cardiac surgery. I have worked as a nurse practitioner in cardiology for 5 years and recently switched to cardiac surgery. I have found this to be a very succinct text. I can quickly find the answers to my questions. I would highly recommend it. I am a little hesitant to leave it at work as everyone from Drs to the nurses in the CVICU have been picking it up and reading it.
