The Oxford American Handbook of Pulmonary Medicine is an essential quick reference guide to all the major respiratory symptoms and diseases. Each topic is covered in a consistent format including practical tips for both inpatient and outpatient care settings. The handbook features a section on practical procedures plus useful pages on lung and bronchial anatomy, CT anatomy, lung function, and blood gas nomograms. Edited and written by pulmonologists from the respected National Jewish Medical Center in Denver, Colorado, this book will be an invaluable resource for students and residents, as well as a useful reference for practitioners. The Oxford American Handbook of Pulmonary Medicine is the indispensable, evidence-based source on the subject.
