Book Sedation for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy

Download or read book Sedation for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy written by Spiros D. Ladas and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sedation for gastrointestinal endoscopy is routinely employed to relieve patients' anxiety and fear of the examination. In recent years, propofol has become a suitable alternative to the previously widely used benzodiazepine. However, as sedation is estimated to be responsible for about 50% of all gastrointestinal endoscopy complications, proper training how to administer sedation and monitor sedated patients is important. This publication contains a selection of short expert reviews presented at an international meeting held in Athens in September 2009, funded by OMED, the Hellenic Society of Gastroenterology, the ESGE and UEGF, and endorsed by the ASGE. An international faculty discussed recent advances in the field, focusing on indications as well the nature and safety of sedatives and analgesics, their administration, the required monitoring and issues related to training in their use. Furthermore, medico-legal issues related to the use of propofol by gastroenterologists were discussed. Containing up-to-date information on sedation for gastrointestinal endoscopy, the publication at hand is a most useful tool for the clinician working in the field.

Book Drug Induced Sleep Endoscopy

Download or read book Drug Induced Sleep Endoscopy written by Nico de Vries and published by Thieme. This book was released on 2020-11-11 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive resource on the innovative use of DISE for obstructive sleep apnea Obstructive sleep apnea is the most prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder, impacting an estimated 1.36 billion people worldwide. In the past, OSA was almost exclusively treated with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), however, dynamic assessment of upper airway obstruction with Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy (DISE) has been instrumental in developing efficacious alternatives. Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Applications by Nico de Vries, Ottavio Piccin, Olivier Vanderveken, and Claudio Vicini is the first textbook on DISE written by world-renowned sleep medicine pioneers. Twenty-four chapters feature contributions from an impressive group of multidisciplinary international experts. Foundational chapters encompass indications, contraindications, informed consent, organization and logistics, patient preparation, and drugs used in DISE. Subsequent chapters focus on treatment outcomes, the role of DISE in therapeutic decision making and upper airway stimulation, pediatric sleep endoscopy, craniofacial syndromes, advanced techniques, and more. Key Highlights Comprehensive video library highlights common and rare DISE findings A full spectrum of sleep disordered breathing and OSA topics, from historic to future perspectives Insightful clinical pearls on preventing errors and managing complications including concentric and epiglottis collapse Discussion of controversial DISE applications including oral appliances and positional and combination therapies This unique book is essential reading for otolaryngology residents, fellows, and surgeons. Clinicians in other specialties involved in sleep medicine will also benefit from this reference, including pulmonologists, neurologists, neurophysiologists, maxillofacial surgeons, and anesthesiologists.

Book The ASCRS Textbook of Colon and Rectal Surgery

Download or read book The ASCRS Textbook of Colon and Rectal Surgery written by Scott R. Steele and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-03-24 with total page 1269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third edition text provides a completely revised and updated new version of this unique, modern, practical text that covers the strategic evaluation, specific approaches, and detailed management techniques utilized by expert colorectal surgeons caring for patients with complex problems–whether they result from underlying colorectal disease or from complications arising from previous surgical therapy. The format follows that of both a “how to” manual as well as an algorithm-based guide to allow the reader to understand the thought process behind the proposed treatment strategy. By making use of evidence-based recommendations, each chapter includes not only background information and diagnostic/therapeutic guidelines, but also provides a narrative by the author on his/her operative technical details and perioperative “tips and tricks” that they utilize in the management of these complex surgical challenges. Distinctive to this book, is the reliance on experts in the field including past presidents of the ASCRS, as well as multiple other national and internationally recognized surgeons, to lend their personal insight into situations where data may be more sparse, but individual and collective experience is paramount to making sound decisions and thereby optimizing patient outcomes. The text includes chapters on the assessment of risk and methods utilized to minimize perioperative complications. In addition, it incorporates sections covering the medical and surgical therapies for abdominal, pelvic and anorectal disease. Moreover, the technical challenges of managing complications resulting from the original or subsequent operations is addressed. The underlying focus throughout the text is on providing pragmatic and understandable solutions that can be readily implemented by surgeons of varying experience to successfully treat complex colorectal problems. However, it also goes beyond the technical aspects of colorectal surgery and includes special sections highlighting the essence of a surgeon; covering aspects involving the medical-legal, ethical, and economic challenges confronting surgeons. Throughout the text, each author provides an ongoing narrative of his/her individual surgical techniques along with illustrations and diagrams to “personally” take the reader through the crucial steps of the procedure, and key points of patient care inherent to that topic. Additionally, where appropriate, links to online videos give the reader an up-front look into technical aspects of colorectal surgery.
