Riassunto

Non-Invasive Ventilation and Weaning: Principles and Practice provides up-to-date, authoritative and comprehensive information from a prestigious range of worldwide key opinion leaders on different applications for non-invasive ventilation, and closely related techniques, both in hospital and at home.

Chapters cover the use of non-invasive ventilation in acute and chronic respiratory failure, plus paediatric and other specialty applications. Sections are devoted to conditions including COPD, cardiac failure and neuromuscular disease; in each case, there are detailed evaluations of current best practice regarding the science, diagnostics and management of the condition. Concise summaries of each chapter, plus generous use of tables and illustrations, ensure the reader gains rapid access to the wealth of information presented.

Non Invasive Ventilation and Weaning: Principles and Practice is the definitive reference work for all pulmonologists and critical care specialists working in the hospital or home setting.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

"(The authors) have delivered a book that covers a great deal more than its title would suggest, with physiology, common respiratory illnesses, equipment, and even the psychological aspects of illness all included in some detail. At 600 hardcopy pages and in an e-book format with links to PubMed references, this is an elegant book in terms of chapter organization, page layout, and clarity.... This is a book that can be read for pleasure and interest, and we will no doubt both do so many times again in the future."
―British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2011

"I have read with interest many... chapters and I have learnt so much, despite my experience. I would recommend this book not only to medical students but also to senior doctors, pulmonologists, intensivists, nurses and physiotherapists."
―N. Ambrosino
