{"product_id":"intra-abdominal-hypertension-manu-malbrain-9780521149396","title":"Intra-Abdominal Hypertension","description":"Despite increasing interest in intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) as causes of significant morbidity and mortality among the critically ill, unanswered questions cloud the understanding of the pathophysiology of these conditions: - Are IAH and ACS synonymous? - What are the ideal methods of measuring and lowering intra-abdominal pressure (IAP)? - When should we think of IAH? - Can IAH be prevented? - What level of IAP requires abdominal decompression? Written by two experts in critical care and IAP, Intra-Abdominal Hypertension is a distillation of the current literature and furthers the understanding of these complex critical conditions. Using a step-by-step approach and illustrative figures, this clinical handbook presents a concise overview of consensus definitions, measurement methods, organ assessment and treatment options. Intra-Abdominal Hypertension is essential reading for all members of the intensive care multidisciplinary team, including experienced and junior physicians, anesthetists and nurses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Manu Malbrain, Jan De Waele\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521149398\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521149396\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 253\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.20h x 4.70w x 0.40d","brand":"Manu Malbrain","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43946711908607,"sku":"9780521149396","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_f1ef1702-1e4e-4bd1-8730-f656cb3aadc3.jpg?v=1681514702","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/intra-abdominal-hypertension-manu-malbrain-9780521149396","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
