Orofacial Pain and Headache
Rafael Benoliel , Yair Sharav
editore: Mosby
pagine: 432
This title was highly commended at BMA Medical Book Competition 2009. "Orofacial Pain and Headache" is a timely, comprehensive and instructive addition to the pain literature; in particular the important and truly multidisciplinary area of orofacial pain. Based on their extensive clinical experience and a thorough understanding of pain mechanisms specific to the trigeminal system, the editors, Yair Sharav and Rafael Benoliel, have integrated knowledge from the areas of headache and orofacial pain and have succinctly explained common mechanisms involved in the two phenomena, with important implications for pain diagnosis and management. This book is an invaluable and unique resource for dental practitioners - both qualified and in training - and pain specialists from all fields, and for basic and clinical pain scientists who are interested in an up-to-date and comprehensive review of the diagnostic and management issues in the field of orofacial pain.

Pain Management in Interventional Radiology
Charles E. Ray
editore: Cambridge
pagine: 344
As interventionalists become more involved with patients as care providers rather than solely as proceduralists, understanding and treating pain is a vital part of daily practice. This book provides an overview of the multiple techniques used in the management of pain in interventional radiology suites. Topics include techniques for the treatment and prevention of pain caused by interventional procedures, as well as minimally invasive techniques used to treat patients with chronic pain symptoms. Approximately half of the book is dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of spinal pain; other chapters focus on intraprocedural and post-procedural pain management, embolization and ablation techniques used to treat patients with uncontrollable pain, and alternative treatments for pain relief. This book is a practical resource for anyone looking to acquire skills in locoregional or systemic pain control and wishing to improve the quality of life for patients undergoing procedures or suffering from disease-related pain.
Pain Management
From Basics to Clinical Practice
John Hughes
editore: Churchill Livingstone
pagine: 320
This book describes the underlying mechanisms and management of pain. It is aimed primarily at undergraduates who traditionally have received somewhat fragment teaching of this important problem within their curriculum. This text would bring the elements of pain training together in one place and improve their understanding. It would also help anybody in the healthcare profession to develop an understanding of pain before moving on to clinical practice or more advanced training. The chapters have a logical sequence building from the basic sciences, introducing possible interventions before addressing assessment and more detailed therapeutic interventions. There are scenarios later in the book to bring together the earlier concepts. This will allow the text to be revisited as appropriate throughout the training years or be used as a reference later on.
Mechanical Ventilation
Neil R. MacIntyre , Richard D. Branson
editore: Saunders
pagine: 528

Principles and Practice of Pharmacology for Anaesthetists
Norman Calvey , Norton Williams
editore: Wiley-Blackwell (an imprint of John Wiley & Sons Ltd)
pagine: 376
This fifth edition of Principles and Practice of Pharmacology for Anaesthetists continues to provide a comprehensive scientific basis and a readable account of the principles of pharmacology, as well as practical guidance in the use of drugs that is relevant to clinical anaesthesia. With these concepts in mind:* Every chapter in this new edition has been thoroughly revised and updated* An additional chapter on Adverse Drug Reactions is included* For ease of reference, the structures of many commonly used agents are featured, with their sites of isomerism, when appropriate* Recommended International Non-proprietary Names (rINNs) are generally used for generic agents, although preference has been given to the current nomenclature for adrenaline and noradrenaline As in previous editions, a comprehensive glossary covering abbreviations and acronyms is included to aid the reader. Principles and Practice of Pharmacology for Anaesthetists is an invaluable resource, both for candidates of professional examinations in anaesthesia and the practising anaesthetist wishing to refresh their pharmacological knowledge.

Tecniche di anestesia loco-regionale in ortopedia e traumatologia
M. Michael
editore: Minerva Medica
pagine: 112
In questi ultimi decenni si è registrato un enorme sviluppo delle tecniche di anestesia loco-regionale, soprattutto nell'ambito della chirurgia ortopedica, con crescente interesse per i blocchi nervosi periferici. Una cospicua mole di evidenze scientifiche, infatti, ha dimostrato che i blocchi periferici sono in grado di garantire la stessa efficacia analgesica dei blocchi centrali, durante e dopo l'intervento chirurgico, ma con un controllo del dolore più specifico e selettivo e, soprattutto, con minori sequele indesiderate o complicanze. L'anestesista di oggi dovrebbe considerare come elemento professionalizzante indispensabile l'acquisizione dell'abilità necessaria per eseguire i blocchi nervosi periferici che gli autori di questo testo hanno saputo illustrare con particolare efficacia didattica, anche per le specifiche richieste da parte dei colleghi Ortopedici, che hanno potuto apprezzare i vantaggi derivanti da queste tecniche, e da parte dei pazienti stessi, sempre più informati sulle nuove metodiche a disposizione. Questo volume, per la concezione generale dell'opera, la strutturazione dei singoli capitoli e l'originale iconografia rappresenta, un importante contributo allo sviluppo della disciplina negli ambiti sopraconsiderati.

For many years, there has been a great deal of work done on chronic congestive heart failure while acute heart failure has been considered a difficult to handle and hopeless syndrome. However, in recent years acute heart failure has become a growing area of study and this is the first book to cover extensively the diagnosis and management of this complex condition. The book reflects the considerable amounts of new data reported and many new concepts which have been proposed in the last 3-4 years looking at the epidemiology, diagnostic and treatment of acute heart failure.

Atlas of Ultrasound and Nerve Stimulation Guided Regional Anesthesia
Ban Tsui
editore: Springer Verlag New York Inc.
pagine: 325
The Atlas of Ultrasound and Nerve Stimulation-Guided Regional Anesthesia shows how to use ultrasound technology and how to master guided nerve stimulation techniques to achieve consistently good results. Throughout the book, ultrasound images are correlated with MRIs to enhance anatomic identification. In addition, peripheral nerve block techniques for upper and lower extremities and the trunk are demonstrated step by step. With visualized needle placement and the ability to see the nerves, ultrasound and nerve stimulation-guided techniques instill confidence in the anesthesiologist, offer safety to patients, and enhance the efficient use of time in the operating room.
