Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

Anesthesia for neonatal emergencies can be extremely challenging for the
anesthesiologist. Fortunately, with medical advancements, many neonatal emergencies
can be treated medically, reducing the need for emergency surgical intervention.
Nonetheless, care of sick neonates, especially those who are premature, requires
sufficient knowledge, experience, and vigilance. This chapter aims to provide a brief
overview of pertinent anatomy and physiology relevant to the care of neonates in
emergency cases. Some basic and overarching anesthetic considerations will be
addressed, including an essential setup. Finally, this chapter will highlight key aspects
of specific neonatal surgical emergencies, including gastrointestinal surgeries, airway
surgeries, and neurosurgery.
