Yearbook of Anesthesiology 16 | A valuable reference for Anesthesiologists & Postgraduate Trainees | ICA Annual Update on AI in Anesthesia, GLP-1 Agonists, TAVR, Difficult Airway & Green Anesthesia

Yearbook of Anesthesiology 16 is the annual update volume of the Indian College of Anaesthesiologists, bringing 25 peer-reviewed chapters from national and international faculty into a single year's reading for the practising anesthesiologist. This edition takes the expanding professional identity of the anaesthesiologist — perioperative physician, intensivist, educator, researcher, innovator and steward of healthcare resources — as its central theme, and selects its topics accordingly. Under a new Editor-in-Chief the volume also revamps the yearbook's traditional structure, opening with a chapter written for the student population that addresses the humanistic dimensions of the specialty before the clinical chapters begin. Coverage runs from airway evolution and supraglottic device innovation to artificial intelligence in paediatric anaesthesia, GLP-1 receptor agonists, transcatheter aortic valve replacement, cardiac implantable electronic devices, nociception monitoring, frailty and sarcopenia, perioperative renal replacement therapy, green anaesthesia, and the medico-legal frameworks around end-of-life decision-making in India. Who This Book Is For: Practising anesthesiologists and intensivists who need the year's advances condensed into evidence that can be applied in theatre and in the ICU. Anesthesiology postgraduates (MD/DNB) who need current, citable reviews of the topics now shaping perioperative practice. Why This Book Helps: Each chapter opens with a structured abstract and a Key Points list, so the clinical bottom line comes first and the evidence behind it can be read when time allows. Topics are chosen for the problems that have outgrown uniform protocols — GLP-1 agonists before surgery, the physiologically difficult airway, obesity and frailty in ageing surgical populations — reinforcing individualized, physiology-guided decision-making. Numbered tables, flowcharts and management algorithms turn narrative evidence into decisions that can be made at the bedside. Contributions come from Indian teaching hospitals and from centres in the UK and USA, placing recommendations against international practice as well as Indian conditions. A dedicated chapter on dying with dignity sets out the current Indian legal position — Common Cause, the January 2023 amendment and the Harish Rana judgment — with the ICMR standardized DNAR proforma and the ISCCM/IAPC consensus end-of-life pathway. Key Features: 25 peer-reviewed chapters commissioned under the aegis of the Indian College of Anaesthesiologists. Per-chapter teaching apparatus: structured abstract, keywords, Key Points, numbered tables, flowcharts, conclusion and references. New-technology coverage across AI-enabled paediatric anaesthesia, modern ultrasound in regional anaesthesia, nociception monitoring and technology-assisted self-learning. Perioperative medicine chapters on diabetes, abdominal obesity, obstetric haemorrhage with viscoelastic testing and targeted transfusion, postoperative hypotension, and non-arousal states and delirium. Sustainability, research-methodology and medico-legal chapters alongside the clinical updates.
