Fisiologia della respirazione. L'essenziale

John B. West, Andrew M. Luks

editore: Piccin-Nuova Libraria

pagine: 280

Dalla prefazione Questo libro è stato pubblicato per la prima volta più di quaranta anni fa ed è stato al servizio di parecchie generazioni di studenti. È stato tradotto in quindici lingue. Questa nuova undicesima edizione comprende numerose innovazioni. Prima di tutto ci sono molte più domande a scelta multipla, impostate in modo da mettere alla prova più il ragionamento che dati mnemonici. Un’ampia appendice fornisce risposte dettagliate alle domande. Ad ogni capitolo sono stati aggiunti gli obiettivi formativi e vari punti nel testo sono stati estesi per spiegarne meglio il signifi cato. Le quattordici lezioni da 50 minuti su You-Tube sono tratte dal materiale presentato in questo testo e hanno riscontrato il favore degli studenti. La URL è: http://meded.ucsd.edu/ifp/jwest/resp_phys/index.html.Nonostante queste nuove caratteristiche, gli obiettivi del libro non sono cambiati. Per prima cosa, il libro è destinato agli studenti di medicina e di materie sanitarie. Come tale sarà normalmente usato insieme a un corso di lezioni, come avviene all’UCSD. Infatti, la prima edizione è stata scritta perché ritenevo che allora non ci fosse alcun libro adatto per il primo anno del corso di fi siologia.In secondo luogo, il libro è stato scritto come un ripasso per i medici interni e per i colleghi di pneumologia, anestesiologia e medicina interna, specialmente per prepararli agli esami di abilitazione e ad altri esami. Qui le esigenze sono piuttosto diverse. Il lettore ha familiarità con l’argomento generale, ma ha bisogno di rinfrescarsi la memoria su vari argomenti e i molteplici diagrammi didattici sono particolarmente importanti.Può essere utile aggiungere qualche parola su come il libro si integri con le lezioni per gli studenti del primo anno di medicina alla UCSD. Le lezioni di fi siologia respiratoria sono solo dodici di circa 50 minuti, integrate da due esercitazioni, tre discussioni a piccoli gruppi e una sessione di revisione con l’intera classe. Le lezioni seguono strettamente i singoli capitoli del libro, con la maggior parte dei capitoli che corrispondono a una sola lezione. Le eccezioni sono il Capitolo 5, che ha due lezioni (una su scambio normale di gas, ipoventilazione e shunt; un’altra sul diffi cile argomento del rapporto tra ventilazione e perfusione); il Capitolo 6, che ha due lezioni (una sul trasporto di gas nel sangue e un’altra sull’equilibrio acido-base); il Capitolo 7, che ha due lezioni (sulla statica e sulla dinamica). Non ci sono lezioni sul Capitolo 10, “Prove di funzionalità polmonare”, perché questo non fa parte del tema centrale del corso. È incluso in parte per il suo interesse e in parte per la sua importanza per chi lavora nei laboratori di funzionalità respiratoria.Questa edizione è stata aggiornata in numerose aree, compresi scambi di gas tra sangue e tessuto, meccanica, controllo della ventilazione e sistema respiratorio sotto stress. Oltre alle risposte alle domande a scelta multipla, l’appendice B contiene le discussioni delle risposte alle domande, comprendendo le nuove domande aggiunte ai casi clinici. Sono stati fatti grandi sforzi per mantenere il libro snello, nonostante le tentazioni enormi di renderlo più corposo. Qualche volta gli studenti di medicina si chiedono se il libro è troppo superfi ciale. Non è così. Se gli specializzandi in pneumologia che iniziano il loro tirocinio in un’unità di terapia intensiva capissero completamente tutto il materiale sullo scambio dei gas e sulla meccanica respiratoria, il mondo sarebbe un posto migliore.Molti studenti e insegnanti hanno scritto per chiedere spiegazioni su enunciazioni del libro o per suggerire miglioramenti. Noi rispondiamo personalmente a ogni punto che è stato sollevato e apprezziamo molto questi contributi. John B. Westjwest@health.ucsd.eduAndrew M. Luksaluks@uw.edu

Multidisciplinary Approaches to Breathing Pattern Disorders

Christopher Gilbert, Dinah Bradley
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.

Exercise Testing

New Concepts for the New Century

Ezra A. Amsterdam, Myrvin H. Ellestad

editore: Kluwer Academic Publishers

pagine: 183

Since it was introduced less than 100 years ago, analysis of the circulatory response to exercise as a measure of cardiac function has undergone remarkable development. Most recently this approach has incorporated the burgeoning technology of the last half of the 20th century to meet the physiological and diagnostic needs of scientist and clinicians. The ease of administration, economy and abundant data that characterize exercise testing for its relative staying power as the most frequently utilized noninvasive method of cardiovascular evaluation. The basic modalities of exercise electrocardiography of treadmill and bicycle have been extended by noninvasive cardiac imaging techniques, including scintigraphy and echocardiography, that have provided new insights in myocardial function during exertion and pharmacologic stress. At the same time, traditional exercise electrocardiography has also been refined by innovations that have broadened its applications. Exercise Testing: Current Concepts and Recent Advances affords the reader a state-of-the-art presentation of the diverse and expanding methods of exercise testing and their roles in patient management. The contributors to this volume include individuals who have made seminal contributions to the field during the last several decades. Indeed, it is legitimate to designate this group as a 'Who's Who of Exercise Testing'. It is our hope that this book will enhance the reader's understanding of contemporary methods of exercise testing, as well as provide a glimpse into future directions of this science, that this knowledge is applied to optimal diagnosis and management of our patients.
