Product Description

Product Description

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is growing in recognition as a major chronic disease and a key cause of acute medical admissions. It kills approximately 30,000 patients each year in England and Wales alone, and is set to be the third commonest cause of death by 2020 globally. This pocketbook is a concise companion for all health care professionals who come into contact with patients with COPD. It covers the full spectrum of COPD management ranging from smoking cessation to advanced COPD, bridging both the primary and secondary care aspects of treatment and discussing the latest advances in our understanding of the pathophysiology and new drug treatments of this disease. This compact volume of the Oxford Respiratory Medicine Library summarises up-to-date literature in a style that will have direct clinical application to busy healthcare professionals.

Informative 28 Feb 2010
By Sue J
Format:Paperback
An informative text; puts all the issues around diagnosis & aetiology clearly; very heavy on the science but one chapter only. The chapters on spirometry & treatment were ok but were from a medical perspective & only looked at COPD. There was little except brief description of the many non medical problems associated with COPD.
All in all an informative text.
