Cardiopulmonary Point of Care Ultrasound
This book is an illustration-rich practically focused resource on the use of cardiopulmonary point of care ultrasound (POCUS). It focuses on the applications of POCUS in a wide range of medical specialties especially critical care medicine, cardiology, emergency and respiratory medicine. Topics covered include the application of POCUS in diagnostics, monitoring of various cardiorespiratory conditions such as pulmonary edema, and the role it can perform in guiding interventions for pleural and pericardial effusion. Stunning illustrations and instructive accompanying video clips ensure that the reader can develop a deep understanding of how to properly apply the technology into day-to-day clin...
Ultrasound in the Critically Ill
This book provides a practically applicable guide to the use of ultrasound in the care of acutely and critically ill patients. It is laid out in two sections. The first section attempts to take a comprehensive approach to specific systems of examination taking an organ focused approach covering techniques including Focussed Assessment with Sonography for Trauma (FAST) scanning and venous sonography. The second section presents a range of specific cases enabling the reader to develop an understanding of how to apply these methodologies effectively into their day-to-day clinical practice. Ultrasound in the Critically Ill: A Practical Guide describes how to use ultrasound technologies in day-to-day clinical practice. Therefore, it is an ideal resource for all trainee and practicing physicians who utilize these technologies on a day-to-day basis.
Echography and Doppler of the Brain
The aim of this book is to educate and train practitioners in the safe and professional use of diagnostic ultrasound imaging in the visualization and interpretation of various cerebral conditions not only in neurointensive care, but also in the operating room and, in general, cardiothoracic and neurocritical care settings. It is chiefly intended for anaesthetists and intensivists with a basic knowledge of ultrasound physics, but also for neurosurgeons and neurologists. All chapters were coordinated by the Editors, with experiences in hands-on courses on Echography and Doppler of the Brain, and prepared by international experts. The book covers from basic principles to estimation of intracranial pressure and cerebral perfusion. The topics cover emergency department and prehospital brain US as part of POCUS and US multiorgan evaluation to general intensive care, neurointensive care and anesthesia, including special populations as pregnant and children and setting as LMIC. Clinical scenarios complete the book. An innovative and unique guide that equips readers to perform bedside and non-invasive assessments for a range of cerebrovascular diseases.
Chest Sonography
This book, widely regarded as the standard work in the field, presents the state of the art in chest sonography, enhanced by a wealth of excellent illustrations. It provides the reader with concise, easy-to-assimilate information on all aspects of the use of the modality, including indications, investigative techniques, diagnostic decision making, and imaging artifacts and pitfalls. Chapters offer numerous tips and tricks and highlight potential diagnostic error sources to aid in daily clinical practice. This sixth edition has been extensively revised to consider the latest techniques, study results, and meta-analyses and includes essential additional illustrative material. Chapter revisions include detailed guidance on contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and the use of thoracic point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) in emergency patients. As the technique's value and use continue to grow, readers will find Chest Sonography a valuable up-to-date resource and guide.
Imaging in Nephrology
This book is a wide-ranging guide to current and emerging applications of ultrasonography within nephrology that aims to provide readers with a sound understanding of the rationale for the use of ultrasound techniques in various disease settings, for example, complications following renal transplantation, arteriovenous fistulas, renal artery stenosis, nonstenotic renal artery pathology, renal vein pathology, aortic disease, and acute renal failure. Particular emphasis is placed on newer applications, such as those involving elastosonography, contrast-enhanced ultrasonography, and color Doppler imaging. There is no doubt that ultrasound techniques can improve the standard of care in nephrolog...
Perioperative Drill-Based Crisis Management
This manual provides medical professionals with a script to run, discuss, and evaluate effective emergency drills in the perioperative setting.
Basic Ultrasound Skills “Head to Toe” for General Intensivists
The aim of this book, part of the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) textbook series, is to educate and train practitioners in the safe and competent use of diagnostic ultrasound imaging in the visualization and interpretation of different conditions. Specifically, the program will train practitioners in the safe and accurate acquisition of ultrasound images in the examination and monitoring of patients in intensive care settings. The readers will be able to obtain knowledge on the use of ultrasound in a safe and effective manner and to learn how ultrasound examination can be used to optimize clinical management of patients. The chapters include ultrasound physics, ultrasoun...
Molecular and Cell Biology of Type 2 Diabetes and Its Complications
The present volume summarizes current research on type 2 diabetes, its etiology, pathogenesis and long-term vascular and neurological consequences, with special emphasis on molecular and biochemical mechanisms. Alterations in insulin secretion are comprehensively treated, focusing on the role of glucokinase as glucose sensor. Moreover, insulin action is analyzed with regard to both nonoxidative glucose utilization and glucose oxidation. Concerning the complications in chronic diabetes, topics covered include the effects of high glucose concentration on cellular and endothelial functions and on the glucose phosphorylation rate in non-insulin-sensitive tissues. Furthermore, the role of oxidati...
