This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over the years, the life expectancy of patients with neuromuscular disease has improved thanks to new knowledge and technological innovations. This new book is entirely dedicated to the knowledge of the complex and unique profile of patients suffering from neuromuscular pathology. Many key points are discussed by specialists dedicated to neuromuscular patient care. Respiratory support is often indispensable to sustain the patient's life. Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has taken on an increasingly important role in the care of patients with chronic respiratory failure secondary to neuromuscular disease. The NIV approach and complementary techniques are described. The management of airways and clearance of secretions are important aspects which are dealt with in a dedicated session, and a new theme - laryngeal response pattern during NIV and cough assist techniques - is also addressed. The timing of the tracheostomy and choice of cannula are decisive in the management of the neuromuscular patient, thus the use of invasive mechanical ventilation. Topics of interest also include perioperative respiratory management, weaning from mechanical ventilation and extubation. The use of imaging techniques, such as videofluoroscopy of swallowing and sonography can support the clinician in the diagnosis of complications. Today, even pulmonary rehabilitation is an integral and indispensable part of patient care. The text - developed with the contribution of experts dedicated to the daily care of patients with neuromuscular disorders - is an ambitious project which aims to provide an extensive discussion of the topic and support for those who already work with this type of patient, as well as for those who are starting to engage in this type of patient care"--

Download or read book Decision Algorithms for Emergency Neurology written by Giuseppe Micieli and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-24 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book adopts a novel approach: procedures: instead of discussing the diagnostic categories of neurological syndromes, it focuses on the symptoms of common neurological presentations (especially in the emergency room or on the ward), and the diagnostic hypotheses that can be validated or rejected case by case as a result. Each chapter covers one of the main symptoms of emergencies in neurology – from transient consciousness disturbances to focal deficits, acute muscular disorders, respiratory insufficiency in neurological disorders, headaches, delirium, seizures and epileptic status, para-and tetraplegia, and head trauma, to acute functional disorders – and includes tables and figures to allow readers to gain a quick and easy, yet comprehensive overview of the topic. The book guides readers through various scenarios generated by the onset of symptoms, the clinical tools for differential diagnostics, and the principles of acute and post-acute phase therapy, managed by decision algorithms supported by the most recent scientific evidence. The resulting precedural profile – created through the collaboration of over 80 specialists in neurology or other disciplines – makes this text a valuable tool for neurologists, neurology residents and allied professionals in their daily clinical practice, as well as medical students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As our population continues to grow, more and more patients are becoming dependent on long-term ventilatory support. Therefore, the need for quality options such as home mechanical ventilation is fast becoming a necessity.
