  • 9780323553698
Subject(s): LOC classification:

Contents:
Assessment of cardiopulmonary disease Bedside diagnosis The patient interview The physical examination The pathophysiologic basis for common clinical manifestations Clinical data obtained from laboratory tests and special procedures-objective findings Pulmonary function testing Blood gas assessment Assessment of oxygenation Assessment of the cardiovascular system Radiologic examination of the chest Other important tests and procedures The therapist-driven protocol program-the essentials The therapist-driven protocol program Respiratory insufficiency, respiratory failure, and ventilatory management protocols Recording skills and intraprofessional communication Obstructive lung disease Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema Asthma Cystic fibrosis Bronchiectasis Loss of alveolar volume Atelectasis Infectious pulmonary diseases Pneumonia, lung abscess formation, and important fungal diseases Tuberculosis Pulmonary vascular disease Pulmonary edema Pulmonary vascular disease: pulmonary embolism and pulmonary hypertension Chest and pleural trauma Flail chest Pneumothorax Disorders of the pleura and the chest wall Pleural effusion and empyema Kyphoscoliosis Lung cancer Cancer of the lung Environmental lung diseases Interstitial lung diseases Diffuse alveolar disease Acute respiratory distress syndrome Neuro-respiratory disorders Guillain-barre syndrome Myasthenia gravis Cardiopulmonary assessment and care of patients with neuromuscular disease Sleep-related breathing disorders Sleep apnea Newborn and early childhood cardiopulmonary disorders Newborn assessment and management Pediatric assessment and management Meconium aspiration syndrome Transient tachypnea of the newborn Respiratory distress syndrome Pulmonary air leak syndrome Respiratory syncytial virus infection (bronchitiolitis) Chronic lung disease of infancy Congenital diaphragmatic hernia Congenital heart diseases Croup and croup-like syndromes: laryngotracheobronchitis, bacterial tracheitis, and acute epiglottitis Other important topics Near drowning/wet drowning Smoke inhalation, thermal lung injuries, and carbon monoxide intoxication
Summary: Gives you a fundamental knowledge and understanding that is required to successfully assess and treat patients with respiratory diseases. Using a unique organization of material, this full-color text is divided into three distinct areas which show you how to first gather clinical data, then formulate assessments, make objective evaluations, identify desired outcomes, design a safe and effective treatment plan, and finally document all steps. With easy-to-follow language and relevant clinical scenarios, you will gain a firm understanding of why certain treatment modalities are applied. New to this edition is a chapter detailing Respiratory Insufficiency in the Patient with Neuro-Respiratory Disease, along with revised content which takes a deeper dive into latest developments, research, and practices and protocols in the treatment of respiratory disease -- Provided by the publisher
