Orthopaedic Knowledge Update®: Musculoskeletal Infection
Part of the popular Orthopaedic Knowledge Update® series, this comprehensive orthopaedic resource covers all aspects of the identification, prevention, and treatment of bone, joint, and soft- tissue infections in a single, convenient volume. Developed in partnership with the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) and edited by M. Daniel Wongworawat, MD, FAAOS, Orthopaedic Knowledge Update®: Musculoskeletal Infection 2, presents relevant, evidence-based information, discusses its practical application, and provides supporting references, all tailored to the needs of today’s practicing orthopaedists and trainees. Volume 2 of OKU®: Musculoskeletal Infection is an entirely new work that addresses a significant gap in the literature since the first volume was published in 2009.
Electrodiagnostic Medicine
This easily readable book describes a practical approach to electrodiagnostic medicine. Replete with well-curated figures, the relevant principles and procedures are clearly described and portrayed, including the anatomical details needed for successful nerve conduction studies and needle electrode examination. Numerous summary tables also convey key information in a concise and easily accessible manner. The reader is also able to reinforce understanding of the various topics through high-yield sample cases which are presented and discussed at the end of chapters. Electrodiagnostic Medicine, A Practical Approach is ideal reading for budding, junior as well as more experienced electrodiagnosticians, particularly those in the field neurology and physiatry.
Biology of C-reactive Protein
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a component of the innate immune system. CRP is synthesized by the liver in response to pro-inflammatory cytokines and the biosynthesis of CRP increases dramatically during acute inflammation. CRP is considered to be a non-specific serum biomarker for inflammatory diseases. The functions of CRP during the inflammatory state, however, have not been defined yet.
Periprosthetic Joint Infection of the Hip and Knee
Periprosthetic Joint Infection of the Hip and Knee is a practical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of total joint infections following hip and knee arthroplasty. In addition to useful chapters presenting common tests and algorithms used for diagnosis, the book gives background on the epidemiology, risk factors, and prevention strategies of periprosthetic joint infection. Additionally, practical clinical information is given, including antibiotic treatment strategies and delivery methods and medical optimization techniques for physicians to follow for patient care and follow-up. Covering a topic that is currently underrepresented in the medical literature, Periprosthetic Joint Infection of the Hip and Knee will be useful to orthopedic surgeons, rheumatologists, and other physicians involved in the care of patients with hip and knee prosthetic implants.
Prosthetic Joint Infections
This book outlines the most updated clinical guidelines that are vital for the prevention infections and care of patients with joint infections following a replacement surgery, one of the highest volume medical interventions globally. Sections address the diagnosis, management approaches and prevention of prosthetic joint infections. Written by experts in the field, this text provides a brief overview of the literature and current recommendations in each of the specified areas. Given the rapidly evolving state-of-play in this clinical area, this compendium grows increasingly important to clinicians in their management decisions. Prosthetic Joint Infections is a valuable resource for infectious disease specialists, epidemiologists, surgeons, and orthopedic specialists who may work with patients with prosthetic joint infections.
