Infusion Therapy is the first comprehensive, clinical guide to this practice and is an invaluable resource for clinicians in anesthesia, pain medicine, internal medicine and palliative care. It will also be of interest to researchers and pharmacologists who would like to find out how clinicians use infusions.

“It has been thoroughly researched and provides a novel and up-to-date resource for physicians who are expanding their practice to include more intravenous therapies. … used as a rapid access field guide for pain physicians, anesthesiologists, neurologists, and intensivists alike. It would make a welcome addition to the bookshelf of any pain clinician and thoroughly succeeds in its aim to provide the reader with a practical guide to current thinking in parenteral pain therapies.” (Emma M. Casely and Helen C. Laycock, Anesthesia & Analgesia, Vol. 130 (6), June, 2020)
