Book Description
Antiplatelet therapy is the cornerstone of treatment of ischemic cardiovascular disease and over the last few years spectacular advancements in this field have been recorded. This is the first comprehensive handbook entirely dedicated to all the aspects of antiplatelet therapy. The book is divided into three main sections, pathophysiology, pharmacology and therapy, for a total of 23 chapters. A large group of leading experts from different European countries and from the USA, both from academia and industry, have contributed to the book. Besides a detailed overview on the pharmacology and clinical applications of all the currently used or of the novel antiplatelet agents, innovative approaches (e.g. intracellular signalling as an antiplatelet target, small RNAs as platelet therapeutics, etc.) or unconventional aspects (e.g. pharmacologic modulation of the inflammatory action of platelets are also treated. The book is oriented to both basic investigators and to clinicians involved with research on platelet inhibition or with the clinical use of antiplatelet therapies.

Book Description
Le recours à des anticoagulants est de plus en plus fréquent en France. Cette classe thérapeutique a permis de grandes avancées de prise en charge dans plusieurs domaines médicaux mais ce sont aussi des médicaments exposant fréquemment le patient à des effets indésirables potentiellement graves. Le pharmacien d'officine doit parfaitement connaître les caractéristiques spécifiques de ces thérapeutiques pour être en mesure de limiter la survenue de ces événements et pour optimiser l'efficacité du traitement utilisé. Le recours à un geste invasif chez cette population de patients doit se faire avec précaution. En effet, pendant toute la durée du traitement anticoagulant, les patients sont exposés à un sur-risque hémorragique en cas d'effraction de la paroi vasculaire. Un questionnement minutieux sur le type de geste à mettre en œuvre, sur le délai disponible, sur l'indication initiale du traitement anticoagulant doit donc être systématiquement effectué. Le pharmacien d'officine s'inscrit parfaitement dans cette démarche à plusieurs étapes de la prise en charge péri-opératoire, que ce soit en amont de cette dernière avec le suivi de l'observance du traitement, avec les conseils adaptés à chaque médicament nécessaire pour une efficacité optimale ou en aval avec la recherche des signes d'effets indésirables et avec la vérification de l'utilisation des thérapeutiques conformément aux recommandations. Ce travail de thèse propose de faire la synthèse de toutes les connaissances actuelles nécessaires aux pharmaciens d'officine pour suivre au mieux leurs patients.

Book Description
All anesthesiologists are confronted with patients who show bleeding disorders, whether congenital, acquired, or pharmacologically induced. Although many studies, meta-analyses, guidelines, and textbooks have been published on the subject, they mostly cover specific aspects or require a thorough knowledge of hemostasis. The goal of this book is to provide the anesthesiologist with an overview of hemostasis and the mechanisms underlying bleeding and coagulation in general and to assist in the understanding of specific coagulation disorders as they may occur in the various anesthesia subspecialties. It is hoped that, through the provision of practical information and tools, the book will help residents and trained anesthesiologists to manage one of the most frustrating challenges that they face: the bleeding patient. A full understanding of coagulation requires a lifelong career, and this book is not intended to replace the consulting hematologist, whose expert opinion should always be sought. The available procoagulant blood products and drugs all have potentially dangerous side-effects; furthermore, in bleeding disorders pitfalls are frequent and a misdiagnosis can have potentially catastrophic consequences. The aim of the editors is thus instead to enhance the collaboration between the disciplines of Anesthesiology and Hematology.

Book Description
"Written by the founders of The Difficult Airway Course: Anesthesia and utilizing an instructive case-based approach, this text/DVD presents all of the leading-edge principles, tools, and procedures of airway assessment and management. The scope of the book encompasses the many airway devices that have been developed since the publication of the first edition, many of which have the potential to markedly enhance airway management. Extensively revised and updated, the second edition of Management of the Difficult and Failed Airway emphasizes how airway management is context-sensitive: included are strategies for treating patients in a range of settings, from prehospital care to the ER, as well as proven techniques for special patient populations. In addition, new chapters have been added to further refresh the book's content and provide you with a solid grasp of the most critical topics in this fast-evolving area. The book's effective organization has been maintained, beginning with the first section's focus on the basic foundations of difficult and failed airway management. The second section reviews must-know airway devices and techniques, while the third part of the text introduces case studies that thoroughly examine the application of these techniques in complex clinical situations. A final section covers the practical considerations, such as difficult airway carts and teaching and simulation in airway management."--Publisher description

Book Description
This book comprehensively reviews the potential of focal therapy and discusses why the changing face of prostate cancer warrants a change in the way we treat men with the disease.
