Produktbeschreibung
Sleep related breathing disorders have been known for many years to be an important cause for daytime disability. This book supplies an overview of diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for this disease. A lecture on sleep in normal subjects, patients with obstructive pulmonary diseases with special emphasis on the combination of COPD with coexisting sleep apnea by J.N. Douglas is followed by an article about pulmo nary hemodynamics in sleep apnea by J. Kriegler. J.H. Peters gives a lecture on the epidemiology of sleep related breathing disorders, and H. Rauscher presents a stepwise diagnostic procedure to sleep apnea. J.R. Stradling makes some fairly controversal statements about current treatment and goes on to describe the nasal CPAP. The book is completed by Round table discussion about current and future perspectives in sleep apnea.
The Austrian Pneumological Society held its 33th Workshop on "Clinical Respiratory Physiology" at Graz, November 1st - 3rd, 1990. Sleep related breathing disorders have been known for many years to be an important cause of daytime disability I a huge amount of literature about this topic has been written in the last ten or fifteen years. Because of the practical relevance owing to the high competence of the authors we hope that the lectures and discussions we had at Graz will enjoy and inform the interested reader. I want to express my deep gratitude to all the authors for providing us with the manuscripts and graphs. I am especially grateful to Mrs. H. Weber for her secreterial work and to Mrs. Mag. A. Lahrmann-Ramharter for correcting the written version of the speeches and preparing a manuscript that was ready for the press. Prim. Dr. Hartmut Zwick Contents Douglas J.

Rezensionen
"... Jeder einzelne der Artikel ist lesenswert und bringt interessante und stimulierende Gesichtspunkte zum Thema ..." Klinische Pädiatrie "... Zusammenfassend kann dieses Doppelgespann von zwei Büchlein über die 33. Arbeitstagung der österreichischen Atemphysiologen als mehr als nur ein Tagungsbericht gewertet werden. Der Herausgeber H. Zwick hat es verstanden, eine äußerst aktuelle, hochinteressante und leicht lesbare Sammlung von Beiträgen internationaler Kapazitäten herauszubringen, die die wissenschaftlich interessierten Pneumologen genauso ansprechen werden wie Internisten, Allergo-Immunologen, aber auch Neurologen, Studenten und alle, die an jenen Befunden und Vorgängen interessiert sind, welche teilweise ganz an der Grenze zwischen 'gerade noch normal' (Hyperreaktivität der Bronchien, Schnarchen) oder 'gerade schon krankhaft' (Asthma, Schlafapnoesyndrom) angesiedelt sind".
