- Inbunden, Svenska, 2024Spirometri är en självklar vid diagnostik och uppföljning av astma, KOL och andra lungsjukdomar. Men hur är vi säkra på att spirometrin görs på bästa sätt och att informationen blir maximal? Denna bok har ambitionen att ge svar på just detta genom att bidra med handfasta kunskaper och erfarenheter som är viktiga i det kliniska arbetet, ihop med vetenskaplig bakgrund som gör arbetet både mer intressant och begripligt. Varje avsnitt kan läsas fristående medan pärmens insidor och omslag används som en manual i vardagsarbetet. Syftet med bokens 12 patientfall är att utförligt beskriva och diskutera både vanliga och ovanliga tillstånd samtidigt som de visar nyttan som användningen av kompletterande mätmetoder kan ge. Boken riktar sig läkare, sjuksköterskor, BMA med inriktning fysiologi, dig under utbildning och alla andra som vill öka sina kunskaper i både teori och praktik!. Spirometri 3.0 är kurslitteratur på både högskolor och universitet

Det här är tredje upplagan av boken som nu bytt namn från Sjukgymnastik vid nedsatt lungfunktion till Fysioterapi vid nedsatt lungfunktion. Samtliga kapitel är uppdaterade och utvidgade. Kapitel om fysioterapi vid sensorisk hyperreaktivitet, restriktiv lungsjukdom, akut lungemboli och trauma har tillkommit liksom ett kapitel om radiologi.Syftet med boken är att ge grundläggande kunskaper om den fysioterapi som används vid behandling av patienter med olika typer av respiratoriska symtom, där fysioterapeuten, i samråd med patienten, lägger upp en individuellt anpassad behandling. För att kunna lägga upp behandling och instruera och inte minst motivera patienten krävs att fysioterapeuten är väl förtrogen med såväl mätmetoder som interventioner.Kunskap om hur de patofysiologiska förhållandena vid patientens sjukdom påverkar uppläggningen av behandlingen är väsentlig. I denna bok finns därför avsnitt om lungornas fysiologi och patofysiologi vid några olika lungsjukdomar. Dessa avsnitt är inte heltäckande inom sina områden, utan ska ses som en bakgrund till de avsnitt som behandlar fysioterapeutiska insatser vid specifika sjukdomstillstånd.Fysioterapi vid nedsatt lungfunktion vänder sig till fysioterapeuter under grundutbildning. Även fysioterapeuter verksamma i öppen och sluten vård som mer sporadiskt träffar patienter med nedsatt lungfunktion har behållning av boken. - Häftad, Svenska, 2023

Syftet med denna bok är att sprida kunskap om och väcka intresset för kroniskt obstruktiv lungsjukdom (KOL), en sjukdom som förekommer hos mer än en halv miljon människor i Sverige. Genom internationella och nationella riktlinjer från Socialstyrelsen och Läkemedelsverket har KOL tilldragit sig större uppmärksamhet under senare år. Förhoppningen är att boken ska bidra till att ytterligare öka intresset för KOL hos alla som på något sätt kommer i kontakt med sjukdomen.Boken går igenom basal lungfunktion, begrepp och definitioner, riskfaktorer och ger en kortfattad beskrivning av den inflammatoriska reaktionen vid KOL. Den kliniska bilden, sjukdomsuttryck och KOL-diagnostik beskrivs mer ingående, liksom samsjuklighet med andra sjukdomstillstånd. Behandlingsavsnittet tar upp rökavvänjning, fysioterapi, läkemedelsbehandling, arbetsterapi, nutritionsfrågor, omhändertagande vid akuta exacerbationer, behandling av respiratorisk insufficiens, volymreducerande behandling och utbildningsfrågor.Boken är en introduktion till KOL och riktar sig till de som studerar till eller arbetar som läkare, sjuksköterskor, fysioterapeuter, arbetsterapeuter, dietister samt till andra yrkeskategorier som arbetar med KOL-patienter inom primärvården. Boken kan även vara relevant för beslutsfattare inom svensk sjukvård. - Häftad, Engelska, 2025

Denna andra upplaga av Lungmedicin rymmer stora sjukdomsgrupper som astma, kroniskt obstruktiv lungsjukdom och lungcancer, men även en rad viktiga, men mindre välkända tillstånd som sarkoidos och lungparenkymsjukdomar. I boken förmedlar ett betydande antal av landets främsta experter patogenes, kliniska symtom, förslag till utredningsgång och behandling vid olika sjukdomar i lungorna på ett lättillgängligt sätt. Utredning och omhändertagande av sjukdomar i luftvägar och lungor kräver ofta multidisciplinär samverkan och ingående kännedom om bland annat radiologi, patologi, fysiologi och onkologi för att uppnå goda resultat. Därför riktas boken till hela teamet som arbetar med lungpatienter. Kapitlen är genomgående uppdaterade eller nyskrivna.Syftet med boken är att öka kunskapsnivån hos blivande och färdiga lungspecialister, internmedicinare och specialister i allmänmedicin. Den kan med fördel även läsas av andra yrkeskategorier verksamma inom området, liksom av studerande på grundläggande hälso- och sjukvårdsutbildningar. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2020

"A perfectly pitched medical mystery that will captivate you from page one."—Wes Ely, MD, MPH, author of Every Deep-Drawn Breath, winner of the 2022 Christopher Award for Literature.A suspenseful, authoritative account of how the battle against a mid-century polio epidemic sparked a revolution in medical care.Americans knew polio as the "summer plague." In countries further North, however, the virus arrived later in the year, slipping into the homes of healthy children as the summer waned and the equinox approached. It was described by one writer as "the autumn ghost."Intensive care units and mechanical ventilation are the crucial foundation of modern medical care: without them, the appalling death toll of the COVID-19 pandemic would be even higher. In The Autumn Ghost, Dr. Hannah Wunsch traces the origins of these two innovations back to a polio epidemic in the autumn of 1952. Drawing together compelling testimony from doctors, nurses, medical students, and patients, Wunsch relates a gripping tale of an epidemic that changed the world.In vivid, captivating chapters, Wunsch tells the dramatic true story of how insiders and iconoclasts came together in one overwhelmed hospital in Copenhagen to save the lives of many polio patients dying of respiratory failure. Their radical advances in care marked a turning point in the treatment of patients around the world—from the rise of life support and the creation of intensive care units to the evolution of rehabilitation medicine.Moving and informative, The Autumn Ghost will leave readers in awe of the courage of those who battled the polio epidemic, and grateful for the modern medical care they pioneered. - Häftad, Engelska, 2024

A practical application-based guide to adult mechanical ventilation
This trusted guide is written from the perspective of authors who have more than seventy-five years'' experience as clinicians, educators, researchers, and authors. Featuring chapters that are concise, focused, and practical, this book is unique. Unlike other references on the topic, this resource is about mechanical ventilation rather than mechanical ventilators. It is written to provide a solid understanding of the general principles and essential foundational knowledge of mechanical ventilation as required by respiratory therapists and critical care physicians. To make it clinically relevant, Essentials of Mechanical Ventilation includes disease-specific chapters related to mechanical ventilation in these conditions.
Essentials of Mechanical Ventilation is divided into four parts:
Part One, Principles of Mechanical Ventilation describes basic principles of mechanical ventilation and then continues with issues such as indications for mechanical ventilation, appropriate physiologic goals, and ventilator liberation.
Part Two, Ventilator Management, gives practical advice for ventilating patients with a variety of diseases.
Part Three, Monitoring During Mechanical Ventilation, discusses blood gases, hemodynamics, mechanics, and waveforms.
Part Four, Topics in Mechanical Ventilation, covers issues such as airway management, aerosol delivery, and extracorporeal life support.
Essentials of Mechanical Ventilation is a true “must read” for all clinicians caring for mechanically ventilated patients.
