Respiratory outcomes in preterm infants : from infancy through adulthood( )

3 editions published in 2017 in English and held by 181 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

This book presents pulmonary outcomes of prematurity, from their emergence in infancy through to their consequences in adulthood. With an increasing number of preterm births and more infants surviving, there is now a larger population of adults with lung disease originating in infancy requiring specialized care. Looking at the whole group of preterm infants, not just those with bronchopulmonary dysplasia, this text covers a wide spectrum of pulmonary outcomes, including: pulmonary hypertension, wheezing, and alterations in sleep. The chapter authors focus on critically appraising what is and is not known about each outcome and suggest key questions that still need to be answered. Respiratory Outcomes in Preterm Infants: Sequelae from Infancy through Adulthood is an ideal reference for the multidisciplinary group that cares for these preterm infants and the adults they become, including: neonatologists, pediatric pulmonologists, pediatricians, adult pulmonologists, primary care physicians, nurses, and fellows

Interpretation of blood gases by Allen Latimer( Visual )

2 editions published in 1975 in English and held by 30 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

(Producer) This program approaches the interpretation of clinical blood gas measurements from the physiologic viewpoint. It emphasizes the abnormal mechanisms that produce hypoxemia and hypercapnia, and stresses the importance of understanding the underlying physiology. Actual examples of the application of blood gas analysis to patients in a variety of situations are used to teach the viewer how to distinguish between the various causes of hypoxemia. The viewer learns to detect hypoxemia due to decreased ventilation, shunting, and abnormal matching of ventilation and blood flow. The physiologic principles of oxygen therapy are included in the discussion of case material
