Journal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing 2015 end of year summary: anesthesia

Clinical monitoring is an essential part of the profession of anesthesiology. It would therefore be impossible to review all articles published in the Journal of Clinical Monitoring and Computing that are relevant to anesthesia. Because other reviews will address monitoring of the respiratory and cardiovascular system, the current review will limit itself to topics uniquely related to anesthesia. The topics are organized according to the chronological order in which an anesthetic proceeds: secure the airway; ventilate and deliver anesthetic gases; monitor vital organ function and anesthetic depth; and ensure analgesia during/after emergence from anesthesia (locoregional anesthesia and pain control).
