Book Description
La respirazione meccanica è una procedura con cui ogni medico che si occupi di medicina intensiva, di discipline chirurgiche e di medicina generale deve quotidianamente confrontarsi. Questo volume si propone di fornire ai lettori le più aggiornate conoscenze necessarie all’applicazione di questa procedura, insieme a una valutazione critica dei relativi vantaggi e svantaggi basata sull’evidenza. La prima versione in lingua italiana del volume, pubblicata nel 2007, ha ottenuto un grande successo ed è diventata un importante riferimento per tutti i professionisti che si trovano a utilizzare questa pratica clinica. Per questo motivo è stato deciso di realizzare questa seconda edizione, nella quale i più recenti progressi in ambito clinico e terapeutico, così come l’eliminazione di concetti oggi superati, vanno ad aggiornare la struttura originaria: partendo dalle basi anatomiche e fisiologiche della respirazione meccanica e dalle varie forme di insufficienza respiratoria, vengono prese in considerazione le indicazioni a questo tipo di intervento, le complicazioni ad esso legate, oltre che i metodi alternativi e i suggerimenti sulla gestione delle malattie specifiche dell’apparato respiratorio. Le più recenti tecniche di terapia respiratoria e di respirazione meccanica non invasiva completano questo trattato.

Book Description
A strong grounding in basic histology is essential for all pathologists. However, there had always been a gap between histology and pathology in which histologic information specifically for the pathologist was often lacking. Histology for Pathologists deals with the microscopic features of normal human tissues, from the perspective of the surgical pathologist. This is the only text that uses human (vs. animal) tissues for the histology. It is the best reference in the literature for information on normal histology, and, as such, is essential for all clinical pathologists. Written by pathologists for pathologists, the new edition updates the pathologist's understanding of normal histology up to date with the incremental advances made in the last five years. The 3rd edition has become a "classic" purchased by virtually all residents beginning their pathology training, as well as pathologists in practice. The 4th edition builds on that substantial foundation. The table of contents remains essentially the same with the exception of some changes in authorship.

Book Description
Written by an international team of physicians experienced in all aspects of asthma care, this opportune work defines, with exceptional clarity, the atopic and environmental risk factors attributable to fatal asthma-recommending means of lowering the incidence of life-threatening episodes through timely prognosis and the start of treatment with drugs that reduce and prohibit the remodeling process. Establishes the criteria for fatality-prone asthma individuals! Exploring elements that contribute to fatal asthma attacks, such as socioeconomic deprivation inadequate medical care genetic susceptibility to serious asthma delayed recognition and introduction of suitable treatment, and early airway remodeling not treated with anti-inflammatory drugs Fatal Asthma outlines the epidemiological characteristics of fatal asthma in inner cities and specific countries, as well as in seasons worldwide details the circumstances surrounding pathogenic alterations concurring with asthma-related fatalities reviews therapeutic interventions designed to check or reverse near-fatal attacks discusses the molecular implications of ß2-adrenergic receptor physiology and much more! With over 1800 references, drawings, and photographs, this authoritative and up-to-date book is ideal for respiratory specialists, clinical immunologists, allergists, physiologists, pulmonologists, occupational health physicians, environmental toxicologists, otolaryngologists, and graduate and medical school students in these disciplines.
