Booknews, Inc.
A comprehensive, practical, and current volume (updating the
third edition of 1999) for physiologists, physicians, and technicians
interested in exercise physiology, pathophysiology, and testing.
It describes how to evaluate patients with exercise intolerance
using the physiology and pathophysiology of gas exchange as frames
of reference. The final chapter consists of 79 case presentations,
serving as an atlas of disorders that result in exercise limitation.
Detailed practical information is provided in the appendices to
assist readers in setting up a laboratory, in testing subjects,
and in making necessary calculations. Annotation copyright Book

its applications. After background material on exercise physiology
and cardiopulmonary responses to exercise, coverage includes information
on calibration procedures, instrumentation, interpretation of gas
exchange data, and application of data to cardiovascular and pulmonary
disorders. Lists normal values for exercise capacity, and gives
instructions on specialized applications of invasive hemodynamic
measurements. Includes a list of equipment sources, organizations,
and journals, plus a glossary. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc.,

(April 1997)
Lippincott Williams &
Wilkins Publishers; ISBN: 0316262617
Book Description
This is a practical guide to the optimal clinical use of pulmonary
function tests. The focus of the book is on the clinical utility
of the most common tests--what the test measures, what the results
mean, what kinds of abnormalities the test can detect, and what
kinds of clinical questions the test can answer.Coverage includes
tests for measuring airway obstruction, response to bronchodilators,
diffusing capacity of the lungs, gas exchange, lung resistance and
compliance, distribution of ventilation, and maximal respiratory
pressures. Also included are chapters on preoperative pulmonary
function testing and tests of exercise capacity. The authors discuss
test patterns in various diseases, offer guidelines on when to test
and what to order, and explain how to interpret test results. The
concluding chapter presents illustrative cases. |

Booknews, Inc. , November 1, 1996
A pulmonary testing text written for health care students, but
also arranged as a reference for non-physicians performing the procedures.
Each testing discussion begins with a history and pertinent background
materials as well as physiology, instrumentation, technique, calculations,
and the basic elements of interpretation and infection control.
The test groups include spirometry, lung volumes, airway resistance,
diffusing capacity, exercise, and bronchial provocation. A new innovation
accompanying this edition is a computer assisted instruction disk
containing interactive software featuring a pretest, instruction,
self-assessment, and post-test. The nine appendices offer conversions,
the mathematics of Boyle's Law, pediatric information, procedure
manual instructions, and answers to the text questions. Includes
some photographs, charts, graphs, and equations. Annotation c. by
