The SAGES Manual on the Fundamental Use of Surgical Energy (FUSE) emphasizes good communication and promotes best practice for the use of electrosurgical, ultrasonic, and microwave energy sources in the operating theatre. This manual describes the basic technology of energy sources in the operating room and demonstrates the correct use and indications of energy sources in clinical practice. It also addresses the potential complications, hazards, and errors in the use of surgical energy sources and evaluates the potential interactions of energy sources with other medical devices. Any healthcare professional who has ever picked up an energy device in the OR such as a “Bovie” , Ultrasonic or bipolar instrument will better understand how it works, when to apply it, and what are the possible hazards and errors in its use. The SAGES Manual on the Fundamental Use of Surgical Energy (FUSE) is the first volume of its kind to provide such guidance and will be of great value to surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses, endoscopists, and allied health care professionals who use these devices.

The SAGES Manual of Quality, Outcomes and Safety concisely summarizes important concepts to improve patient care at a systems level. While the focus is on advanced laparoscopy and innovative technology, the principles and examples in this book can be useful across disciplines and subspecialties. The volume sheds light on issues and behaviors both pre-op, intra- op and post-op that will decrease adverse outcomes and improve quality of care. No other book in General Surgery promotes team work, communication and better practices like The SAGES Manual for Quality, Outcomes and Safety.
