Replacement Therapies in Adrenal Insufficiency provides a thorough understanding of the conditions which result in adrenal insufficiency. Never before has one source of information combined all updates on current causes and mechanisms of adrenal sufficiency to allow for quick reference and subsequent treatment decisions. Scientific data on this broad condition includes specific disease coverage of Addison's disease, hypopituitarism, congenital adrenal hypoplasia and adrenalectomy. Practical points in diagnosis, dosing, drug interactions, replacement therapies and emergency situations are also provided as guidance for overall management.…mehr

Peter Hindmarsh is Professor of Pediatric Endocrinology at University College London and Consultant in Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes at University College London Hospitals and Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children. Currently, he is applying Chronic Care Models to the delivery of care for patients with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia. His research interests are in the physiology and pharmacology of drugs used to manage Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia and novel ways of delivery Hydrocortisone using pump therapy to mimic the circadian rhythm.
