This textbook provides comprehensive coverage of the equipment, physics, and clinical techniques used in respiratory care. Topics include basic physics, infection control, manufacture and administration of medical gases, detailed airway management devices, humidity and aerosol therapy, lung expansion devices, and assessment of pulmonary and cardiovascular function, including blood gas monitoring and capnography.
A comprehensive textbook detailing the principles, physiological concepts, clinical applications, and management protocols for mechanical ventilation. Topics include ventilator function (power source, control systems), setting initial parameters, selecting ventilation modes (including noninvasive and invasive PPV), establishing the need for support, and managing specific patient conditions such as ARDS, COPD, Asthma, and neuromuscular disorders.
This study validates a standard point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) protocol for locating central venous catheter (CVC) position in preterm infants, comparing POCUS findings with radiographs. The aim was to validate the accuracy of the protocol in locating the central catheter position. The study assessed 35 central line placements in premature babies (β€30 weeks gestation). The POCUS protocol was found to be a reliable tool for assessing central line positions, showing high interpreter reliability (ΞΊ=0.778), sensitivity of 0.83, and specificity of 0.96.
This book explores the future challenges of modern dentistry, focusing on regenerative medicine, with a particular interest in stem cells (MSCs and dental-derived stem cells) and innovative biomaterials, autologous biomatrices, and injectable biomaterials.
A comprehensive revision of the classic textbook focusing on essential techniques and principles for managing common dentoalveolar surgical procedures, extractions, and minor pathology within the general dental practice setting.
A comprehensive, first-edition guide focused on the rapid recognition, stabilization, and initial management of critical and life-threatening medical conditions encountered in general clinical practice and hospital settings.
This research article evaluates the clinical characteristics and treatment options for neonates requiring prolonged hospitalization due to persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (HH). The study, which includes infants diagnosed between 2018 and 2021, analyzes baseline characteristics, treatment options (including diazoxide resistance), and genetic mutation analysis in both transient HH and congenital hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia (CHI) cases.

This comprehensive literature review delves into the intricacies of Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), covering primary injury biomechanics (impact loading, blast overpressure, impulsive loading) and the molecular pathophysiology of the secondary injury cascade. It analyzes molecular and cellular responses, including altered ion concentrations, neurotransmitter dysfunction, oxidative stress, cellular energy disturbances, and neuroinflammatory responses, aiming to bridge the knowledge gap between mechanical forces and molecular consequences for targeted therapeutic development.
