Michael Lavelle-Jones
editore: Churchill Livingstone
pagine: 248
This book is a one-volume core revision text covering general surgery and the minor surgical specialties, designed to stimulate the student into assessing his/her own knowledge during self-directed learning and exam preparation. The book assumes the student has had some teaching in surgery and has acquired some basic core knowledge. The book promotes self-directed learning with motivation coming from self-identification of strengths and weaknesses leading to an assessment of needs. The structure of the book is as follows: division into the main sections: general surgery, urology, cardiothoracic surgery, vascular surgery, plastic surgery and neurosurgery. This book is a core text examining the main surgical diseases in a synoptic text and a self-assessment section at the end allows the student to assess the progress in the application of the facts to common clinical problems.

pagine: 592
The incidence of chronic pancreatitis continues to increase in the Western world. Its pathophysiology is still controversial, but in recent years knowledge of its etiological aspects has increased and new pathophysiological concepts have been presented. There have been new developments in diagnosing the disease, especially through improvements in imaging techniques such as endosonography, CT and MRI and MRCP. It is generally agreed that the primary approach to treatment of chronic pancreatitis should be conservative. The treatment of complications, however, is still a matter of debate between physicians, gastroenterologists and surgeons. This book contains contributions by leading pancreatologists from around the world summarizing the latest developments in the fields of chronic pancreatitis: Etiology; Pathophysiology; Diagnostics; and, Conservative, interventional and surgical treatment. Students, general practitioners and clinicians will all benefit from this presentation.

Multidisciplinary Approaches to Breathing Pattern Disorders

e altri
editore: Churchill Livingstone
pagine: 288
Functional breathing pattern disorders (BPD - the extreme of which is hyperventilation) disturb the biochemistry of the body, often leading to respiratory alkalosis. They are extremely common, mainly affecting women and frequently go unrecognized by clinicians. Research shows that BPDs can be responsible for causing, or helping to maintain, a vast range of symptoms including muscular pain (particularly involving the thorax and neck area), inefficient motor control, reduced core stability, tremors, and tetany, feelings of anxiety, easy fatiguability, sleep disturbances, dysphagia, epigastric pain, IBS, parasthesia, palpitations, dizziness, disturbed vision, and a variety of circulatory symptoms resulting from smooth muscle constriction. BPDs are easily tested for and - with patient cooperation - are commonly correctable via a combination of manual therapy and breathing rehabilitation strategies.
