Myocardial Protection



Myocardial protection is one of the most important aspects of cardiac surgery, and also one of the most dynamic. There have been considerable advances in myocardial protection strategies over recent years, accompanied by a variety of new approaches to the treatment of cardiac diseases, and this text is intended to embrace the state of the art in this field. This book aims to update physicians and surgeons involved in the field of cardiac surgery on the state of knowledge on all aspects of myocardial protection. This includes the latest in the treatment of cardiac diseases and cardiac failure, complemented by sections on robotic, valvular, pediatric, and coronary surgery, all of which are covered by distinguished experts. These combine to produce a comprehensive view of the field, with a forward-looking approach which should inspire future developments.

Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Cardiac Surgery



Cardiac surgery is associated with ischemia and reperfusion injury for most of the operations performed. During the last decades, major improvements have been done in reducing both ischemic and reperfusion injury and therefore improving the quality of the operation. This book summarizes the newest developments in this field. In addition, specific comments are made concerning the surgical application of the fields in all kinds of operation, including routine cases as well as complex procedures. The reader will gain a detailed insight regarding how to protect patients best during routine cardiac procedures (coronary artery revascularization and valve replacement) as well as prolonged, technically demanding operations

Acute pain management: scientific evidence


This publication summarises the evidence currently available to assist health professionals in the management of acute pain. The field of acute pain medicine is a rapidly changing one.
Acute Pain Management: Scientific Evidence1 was first published by the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) of Australia in 1999. An editorial2 published the same year in the British Journal of Anaesthesia assessed the importance of this document along with Guidelines on the Use of NSAIDs in the Perioperative Period.3 It was noted that ‘there is still a need for properly conducted controlled clinical studies evaluating most areas of therapy in acute pain’ and that ‘guidelines can only remain valid for a relatively short period’ as the field of pain management is a rapidly evolving one.

Pain: Handbook of Clinical Neurology


This volume in the Handbook of Clinical Neurology (Series Editors: Michael J. Aminoff, Department of Neurology, University of California, San Francisco, USA; François Boller, Bethesda, USA; Dick F. Swaab, Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience, Amsterdam, the Netherlands) gives a comprehensive account of pain mechanisms and pain syndromes of neurological interest. Sections address the physiological aspects of pain, the pathophysiological mechanisms, clinically relevant pain syndromes and the treatment of neuropathic pain. Disorders often kept separate from classical; neurology, such as complex regional pain, spinal pain and musculoskeletal pain are included. This volume will be invaluable for both the clinical neurologist and neuroscience researcher.
Comprehensive account of the clinical aspects of pain syndromes associated with neurological disease.
Tells neurologists what is currently known about pain mechanisms.
International list of contributors including the leading workers in the field.
Describes the advances which have occurred in both clinical neurology and the neurosciences and their impact on the understanding pain.

The Aetiology of Deep Venous Thrombosis: A Critical, Historical and Epistemological Survey


What we now call deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has been elucidated by a diversity of investigative approaches during the past four centuries. The authors of this book survey the history of the field and ask: why has one of these perspectives  the haematological/biochemical  come to dominate research into the causation of DVT during the past 50 years and to exclude alternatives? In answering this question, they show that the current consensus model is conceptually flawed. Building on the work of William Harvey, John Hunter, Rudolf Virchow, Ludwig Aschoff and a number of pathologists in the mid-20th century, they offer a revised account of the aetiology of this condition. In the process they retrace and review the 160-year-old philosophical and methodological schism in biomedical research and, using DVT as an example, propose how this schism might be bridged to the benefit of both research and clinical practice.
