Produktbeschreibung
According to Peter Macklem 'Between the crystals and weather a sudden phase transition occurs over a small range of energy consumption. It is only there where life can flourish'.In this respect, the term 'homeokinesis' instead of homeostasis has been proposed, as a basic property of living systems that 'describes the ability of an organism to utilize external energy sources to maintain a highly organized internal environment fluctuating within acceptable limits in a far from equilibrium state' Critical illness alters complexity in both time and space, leading to a 'decomplexification'. This effect signals early development of septic shock and multiple organ failure. Personalised care through extracting information from biosignals in the ICU migh unmask hidden information within a signal, which may improve understanding of the pathophysiology of the diseases, promting a pro-active rather than a reactive approach by the caring physician.

Autorenporträt
Dr Papaioannou is an academic Anesthesiologist and Intensive Care Physician and his postgraduate studies in biomedical engineering have led him to analyse complexity loss of different biosignals from patients during severe illness. He has been awarded with many European and American awards and has published more than 60 peer-reviewed articles.
