Featuring a comprehensive analysis of gas exchange in healthy and diseased states and addressing functions of peripheral gas delivery, this detailed reference presents an interdisciplinary approach to understanding and studying oxygen transport throughout the body. More than 30 internationally renowned experts combine techniques from clinical medicine, pathophysiology, and therapy to deliver the latest research in an integrative manner on pulmonary gas exchange in the body. Pulmonary and Peripheral Gas Exchange in Health and Disease examines the effects of damaged lungs and the abnormal functions of body tissues and organs on pulmonary circulation reviews the behavior and mechanisms of gas exchange in the heart, skeletal muscle, gut, brain, and kidneys describes the requirements and behavior of homeostasis investigates conditions in normal physiology-during exercise, and at sea level, high altitude, and microgravity analyzes the performance of gas exchange in bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary fibrosis, and acute respiratory disease syndrome highlights peripheral transport of oxygen from the capillaries into the mitochondria targets prescient directions for future research and more! Containing over 2800 literature references, drawings, photographs, and equations, Pulmonary and Peripheral Gas Exchange in Health and Disease makes an excellent reference for pulmonologists; physiologists; anesthesiologists; chest, intensive care, thoracic, and emergency room physicians; and medical school students in these disciplines.
