Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -In the ever-increasingly demanding scenarios of critical care, the diagnosis of brain death stands as one of the most sensitive and essential decisions that physicians are asked to make. It is a concept surrounded by mysteries and still needs…to be better understood. The book Coma and Brain Death - Facts, Myths, and Mysteries tries to identify the complexities of concepts, criteria, standards, and ethical considerations that surround the diagnosis of brain death. The book also explores the intricate and mysterious world of human consciousness and tries to explain the misunderstood concepts related to coma and brain death. There are many questions we face, including: What defines brain death What irreversible stages or changes lead to coma and, subsequently, brain death How can we prevent these irreversible changes And in cases where brain death is impending, how do we determine the irretrievability of events This book combines the related elements of diagnosing and managing brain death, essential components, challenges, and the various policies and ethical considerations that hospitals and healthcare professionals must adopt while handling these challenging scenarios. It explores the critical distinctions between coma, vegetative states, and brain death, unravelling the nuances of diagnosis, from advanced imaging to the apnoea test, the standard in assessing irreversible brain failure in adults. Readers will gain a deep understanding of how diagnostic criteria differ in children, where additional precautions and guidelines are essential, and why certain protocols are followed for organ donation candidates and pregnant patients.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 82 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Talking about fire safety engineering is relatively common for many different reasons. Motivation can be easily found in the various tasks that fall under such a general expression. Fire safety engineering denotes, in fact, the well-known prac…tice of designing and installing systems, building components and/or structures that are able to prevent and reduce the risk of fire, minimizing the hazard for people and property. This primary goal necessarily requires a multidisciplinary strategy and competence to find optimal solutions in the case of a fire. Some experts could be, in fact, involved in fire safety policy measures, others could be asked to provide robust communication technology in case of a fire emergency, while some could give major feedback and innovative technical skills at the level of building materials and systems. All in all, multiple ways and approaches - based on scientific and engineering principles - are implicitly involved in a fire safety engineering task. Five different research contributions are presented in this book project, focusing on communication technologies in the case of a fire emergency, fire safety policy strategies, and design strategies for mitigating the effects of fire in buildings. Their research methodology and results clearly show the relevance and variety of fire safety engineering issues and contribute to a continuously innovating field.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 126 pp. Englisch.

Neuware -Fibrinolysis, the process of breaking down the fibrin network, was reported in 1925 by Fischer, who demonstrated that explants of virally induced chicken tumors rapidly caused lysis of plasma clots, whereas explants of normal tissue did not. T…his observation provided evidence for the importance of fibrinolysis in cancer. Then, in 1933, Tillett and Garner observed the liquefaction of a fibrin clot by the plasma of many patients who had recovered from acute hemolytic streptococcal infections. These investigators showed that broth cultures of hemolytic streptococci derived from patients could rapidly liquefy normal human fibrin clots. This suggested that fibrinolysis might play a key role in homeostasis, although its regulation mechanism was unknown. Fibrinolysis is now known to be regulated by four components, namely the plasminogen activators that function to convert plasminogen into plasmin to initiate fibrin degradation, such as tissue-type and urokinase-type plasminogen activators, the plasminogen activator inhibitors that block the plasminogen activators, the plasmin inhibitors such as alpha2-antiplasmin, and finally the enzymes that block plasminogen binding sites on fibrin or the endothelial cell surface, such as the thrombin activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor. Originally, fibrinolysis was thought to be only responsible for promoting vascular patency, the failure of which resulted in myocardial infarction and stroke. However, recent studies from multiple laboratories have identified the key role of fibrinolysis in a host of physiological and pathophysiological processes. Most recently, fibrinolysis has been suggested to play a role in forming the premetastatic niche, a hospitable site for future metastases in distal tissues, which is formed by secretions from the primary tumor before the departure of metastatic cancer cells. This book explores the multifaceted and intriguing role of fibrinolysis in several processes, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, neuroinflammation, and infection. The latest advances in fibrinolytic therapies are also discussed, which illustrates the complexity and depth of the field.Books on Demand GmbH, Überseering 33, 22297 Hamburg 124 pp. Englisch.
