Sommario/riassunto

This pocket atlas explains how to use pulmonary graphics as a valuable adjunct for patient management.  Actual patterns commonly encountered in neonatal practice are presented side-by-side with schematic illustrations that take apart the graphic and identify its key features, accompanied by brief explanatory text.    The book addresses the principles of real-time pulmonary graphics, discusses waveforms and loops, and examines how both are affected by mechanical ventilation and disease states.  A series of clinical cases brings key points to life. .
