Product Description
Management of Acute Pulmonary Embolism highlights traditional, novel, and evolving aspects of the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary embolism (PE). The contributors comprise an international team of experts, who have each made noteworthy contributions in this exciting field. Important aspects of diagnosis, risk stratification, and differential treatment of patients with PE are presented in a concise, yet comprehensive manner. Emphasis is placed on specific issues related to PE, including pregnancy, cancer, thrombophilia, and air travel. The authors critically review and interpret available data, and provide clear recommendations for diagnosis and therapeutic concerns in clinical management of PE patients. Management of Acute Pulmonary Embolism is organized in three precise sections - diagnosis, treatment, and special topics. Each section is up-to-date and detailed, and provides clear recommendations for diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to patients with PE in clinical practice. This practical volume is an essential starting point for future study for both medical students and established investigators. |

Review for Acute Pulmonary Embolism by M. Cuneyt Tetikkurt (Turkey;,Istanbul)  3 Stars
October 29, 2007
This book may be useful for students and residents.But it does not contain the details for clinicians.Although the name of the book is Management of Acute Pulmonary Embolism it mainly concerns the cardiologists.For pulmonologists and the internists the book is inadequate.The diagnosis and the treatment sections are short.The treatment section does not contain the details which the clinicians come across in every day practice.
