Congratulations to Jerrold Lerman MD, FRCPC, FANZCA, Vice President at Great Lakes Anesthesiology and Senior Anesthesiologist at Oishei Children's Hospital, for publishing the second edition of Neonatal Anesthesia! Since the book's first edition in 2015, neonatal surgery and anesthesia have rapidly advanced, and this updated edition is now the leading resource for both trainees and experienced clinicians. Dr. Lerman, with four decades of experience, collaborated with international experts to cover essential topics including neonatal resuscitation, regional anesthesia and the latest perinatal procedures. This guide is an invaluable reference for all professionals involved in neonatal and pediatric care! On #WorldAnesthesiaDay we're extremely proud to recognize Dr. Lerman for this achievement and all of the dedicated anesthesia providers at OCH contributing so much to their community and field! #NeonatalAnesthesia #PediatricCare
