    Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the diffusion of hydrogen and helium through various mediums, including thin rubber fabrics, soap films, and cotton fabrics. The author, an accomplished scientist, set out to contribute to the understanding of gas transfusion through membranes. They conducted a series of experiments using a variety of techniques, including a katharometer and a Jamin Interferometer, to measure the rate of gas diffusion. By comparing their results with previous studies, they were able to determine the permeability of the different materials to hydrogen and helium. The book also discusses the implications of these findings for understanding the process of gas transfusion in biological systems and highlights the importance of this research in furthering our knowledge of membrane science. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

    Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'The Elderly' is the third monograph in a series on management and treatment in major patient groups and subspecialties. Each book is complete in its own right. The whole series, however, has fill a gap between standard text-books of medicine been prepared to and therapeutics and research reviews, symposia and original arti cles in specialist fields. The aim of the series is to present up-to-date authoritative advice on patient management with particular refer ence to drug treatment. The first two volumes in the series, on gastrointestinal diseases and rheumatic diseases, were addressed to major therapeutic areas or subspecialties. The present volume, 'The Elderly', is intended to provide overall guidance on the manage ment of a range of medical problems in elderly patients. The elderly make up an increasing proportion of the population and require a substantial proportion of health care resources. The management of elderly patients falls not only upon specialist geriatricians but also upon a range of others, including general practitioners, general physicians and almost all other medical specialists with the excep tion of paediatricians. It has become apparent in recent years that the management of disease in the elderly in general and drug treatment in particular presents new problems and challenges. Some of these relate to the wide spectrum of disease in elderly patients, in whom there is often multiple pathology, while others concern age-induced changes in drug handling or drug effect.…

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -'The Elderly' is the third monograph in a series on management and treatment in major patient groups and subspecialties. Each book is complete in its own right. The whole series, however, has fill a gap between standard text-books of medicine been prepared to and therapeutics and research reviews, symposia and original arti cles in specialist fields. The aim of the series is to present up-to-date authoritative advice on patient management with particular refer ence to drug treatment. The first two volumes in the series, on gastrointestinal diseases and rheumatic diseases, were addressed to major therapeutic areas or subspecialties. The present volume, 'The Elderly', is intended to provide overall guidance on the manage ment of a range of medical problems in elderly patients. The elderly make up an increasing proportion of the population and require a substantial proportion of health care resources. The management of elderly patients falls not only upon specialist geriatricians but also upon a range of others, including general practitioners, general physicians and almost all other medical specialists with the excep tion of paediatricians. It has become apparent in recent years that the management of disease in the elderly in general and drug treatment in particular presents new problems and challenges. Some of these relate to the wide spectrum of disease in elderly patients, in whom there is often multiple pathology, while others concern age-induced changes in drug handling or drug effect. 192 pp. Englisch.…
