A practical, sectioned reference to pulmonary medicine

Edward Ringel’s handbook organizes pulmonary medicine into three working areas: patient assessment, diagnostic tests and procedures, and diseases affecting the lungs. Its bulleted format, tables, figures, references, and evaluation algorithms support quick consultation across topics ranging from respiratory symptoms and test interpretation to pulmonary infectious and vascular disease. The description also highlights lung health in pregnancy and guidance on judging when procedures are appropriate, their limitations, and how to counsel patients. Published in 2009, the book presents professional recommendations and research as part of its clinical reference material.

Book overview

This succinct, bulleted handbook is the ultimate resource for pulmonary and respiratory specialists. Throughout the book, tables and figures summarize important clinical data and current professional society recommendations, while salient references provide readers with the latest, evidence-based research. Divided into three sections, section one reviews the assessment process and provides practical guidance and algorithms for the evaluation of the cardinal signs of respiratory disease. Section two outlines tests and procedures that are unique to pulmonary medicine and helps the reader to determine when a test or procedure is appropriate, the limitations of the procedure, how to interpret test results correctly, and advice on counseling the patient. The final section contains in-depth coverage of both common and uncommon diseases that affect the lungs. Key Topics in the Little Black Book of Pulmonary Medicine: - Approach to the Patient - Pulmonary Infectious Disease - The Lung and Pregnancy - Pulmonary Vascular Disease
