Le malattie dell'apparato respiratorio e le complicanze respiratorie in corso di patologie sistemiche o successive a intervento chirurgico sono sempre più rappresentate nelle nostre realtà ospedaliere e, sempre più frequentemente, il personale medico e infermieristico/asistenziale si trova a doversi confrontare con pazienti, siano essi neonati, adulti o anziani, con problematiche respiratorie. Come per tutte le patologie è fondamentale il ruolo dell'anamnesi per poter comprendere se si tratta di evento acuto o di patologia cronica, così come per potersi orientare sulle procedure diagnostiche di primo e di secondo livello da richiedere e sull'urgenza degli interventi terapeutici da attuare.

Pneumo Notes si presenta come uno strumento prezioso e di grande aiuto sia per i medici che per gli operatori delle professioni sanitarie proprio per il suo taglio pratico, per la rapida e semplice consultazione e per l'esaustività delle informazioni contenute.
