Medical Sleep Medicine: A Guide to Sleep and Its Disorders

Sleep Medicine: A Guide to Sleep and Its Disorders Publisher: Blackwell Publishing Limited
Number Of Pages: 325 Publication Date: 2005-09-01 Sales Rank: 921945 ISBN / ASIN: 1405123931 EAN: 9781405123938 Binding: Hardcover Manufacturer: Blackwell Publishing Limited Studio: Blackwell Publishing Limited Average Rating: 5 SUBJECT: On average people spend one third of their lifetime sleeping. An understanding of the physiology and pathophysiological changes that take place during this time is, therefore, essential to the medical care of patients. Sleep disorders can arise from a variety of causes including respiratory, psychiatric and neurological conditions, as well as pain and lifestyle changes. Consequently, they present to a wide range of clinicians who require an overview of their diagnosis and treatment.NEED: There is now the need for an updated edition of this handbook, as sleep medicine has become part of a clinician''s daily practice. Under the leadership of respiratory specialists and neurologists, sleep laboratories have flourished in western countries. There has been a great deal of progress in the knowledge of the multiple interactions between the different sleep stages and respiration. Sleep apnoea-hypopnoea syndrome, upper airway resistance syndrome, respiratory pump disorders and periodic limb movement syndrome are now familiar diseases.COMPETITION: The handbooks that exist are either now out-of-date or mulit-authored, resulting in a lack of consistency between chapters.FORMAT: The book is divided into three sections. The first group of chapters consider the fundamentals of sleep, the effects of drugs on sleep and how to assess sleep complaints. The main body of the book consists of chapters on individual sleep disorders. Each of these has a structured approach, outlining both assessment and treatment. Insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, awareness during sleep and behavioural abnormalities are covered. The final chapters deal with the important respiratory consequences of upper airway dysfunction, changes in the control of breathing during sleep and the social implications of sleep problems. There will be a major revision on the chapter on the physiological basis of sleep and medicine in view of advances in the understanding of the neurochemistry, and philosophy of sleep. The chapter on insomnia will be expanded to take into account the approach in primary care, self-help techniques for patients and advances in behavioural and psychological treatments. In addition, there will be greater coverage of the social effects of daytime sleepiness, particularly road traffic accidents and a major review of narcolepsy in view of the latest knowledge of genetic and chemical underlying abnormalities.CONTENT & ORGANISATION: See Contents list below.FEATURES:Essential practical manual for those encountering patients with sleep disordersRevised and expanded sections on insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness and new drugsNew information on medical complications of sleep apnoeas and guidance on investigations and treatmentsKey points to highlight clinical features of the different sleep-related diseasesMARKETING: We should target all those working in the field of sleep medicine, particularly respiratory physicians, neurologists and psychiatrists. The author was a valuable source of information of key societies to approach for the last edition.PAST HISTORY: The first edition of this book was published in April 2000 and achieved trade sales of nearly 1300 copies. The current price is £55 and we have 10 copies in stock. The extent will increase to 320 pages compared to 250 pages in the previous edition and the price will be £65. The geographical breakdown is as follows:UK - 383Europe - 203USA - 540Australia - 24India - 6Asia - 79South America - 6Middle East - 9Africa - 7SUPPORT: Shneerson is one of the world''s leading authorities on sleep medicine. He is the Director of the Respiratory Support and Sleep Centre in Cambridge, UK and lectures on the topic frequently. As an experienced author and teacher, he has the ability to write concisely and present information in an accessible way.REVIEWS:Thorax, January 2001, No. 56 : This excellent book, written by one of the pioneers of sleep disordered breathing in the UK, provides a broad coverage of disorde
