Sleep Medicine (Cambridge Clinical Guides)

Sleep Medicine (Cambridge Clinical Guides) Review


See more picture


Sleep disorders exact a high toll on society in terms of diminished quality of life, reduced productivity and cost to medical services. This book guides the reader through the basic science of sleep and how to evaluate individuals suffering from sleep irregularities. Complex features of sleep disorders are then discussed, including parasomnias, sleep apnea, night terrors and restless legs syndrome. The book also looks at how these sleep abnormalities can affect individuals with other psychiatric disorders such as epilepsy, depression and anxiety disorders. Covering disorders from insomnia to narcolepsy, and specialty areas from pediatric to geriatric, this wide ranging and accessible guide allows non-sleep specialists to approach and understand important information that is clinically relevant in everyday practice. Illustrated with summary tables, figures and treatment algorithms, this book will be a useful guide for neurologists, psychiatrists, psychologists, pulmonologists and internists as well as health care professionals in training.

Multi-point Interaction with Real and Virtual Objects (Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics)

Multi-point Interaction with Real and Virtual Objects (Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics) Review


See more picture


The problem of robotic and virtual interaction with physical objects has been the subject of research for many years in both the robotic manipulation and haptics communities. Both communities have focused much attention on human touch-based perception and manipulation, modelling contact between real or virtual hands and objects, or mechanism design. However, as a whole, these problems have not yet been addressed from a unified perspective. This edited book is the outcome of a well-attended workshop which brought together leading scholars from various branches of the robotics, virtual-reality, and human studies communities during the 2004 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation. It covers some of the most challenging problems on the forefront of today’s research on physical interaction with real and virtual objects, with special emphasis on modelling contacts between objects, grasp planning algorithms, haptic perception, and advanced design of hands, devices and interfaces.

States of Consciousness: Experimental Insights into Meditation, Waking, Sleep and Dreams (The Frontiers Collection)

States of Consciousness: Experimental Insights into Meditation, Waking, Sleep and Dreams (The Frontiers Collection) Review


See more picture


In this accessible overview of current knowledge, an expert team of editors and authors describe experimental approaches to consciousness. These approaches are shedding light on some of the hitherto unknown aspects of the distinct states of human consciousness, including the waking state, different states of sleep and dreaming, meditation and more. The book presents the latest research studies by the contributing authors, whose specialities span neuroscience, neurology, biomedical engineering, clinical psychology and psychophysiology, psychosocial medicine and anthropology. Overall this anthology provides the reader with a clear picture of how different states of consciousness can be defined, experimentally measured and analysed. A future byproduct of this knowledge may be anticipated in the development of systematic corrective treatments for many disorders and pathological problems of consciousness.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Synthesis of Research and Clinical Practice

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Synthesis of Research and Clinical Practice Review


See more picture


Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, otherwise known as Lou Gehrig's Disease, is one of several degenerative diseases of the aging nervous system. This text neatly synthesizes the recent explosion of research into this particular condition to construct a detailed and comprehensive overview. Drs. Eisen and Krieger bring their research expertise and extensive clinical experience to provide this practical and thought-provoking account. Chapters cover the epidemiology, molecular biology, and pathophysiology of ALS, as well as issues pertinent to clinical assessment and care.

The Floppy Infant (Clinics in Developmental Medicine    ) Review


See more picture


The second edition of The Floppy Infant is devoted to the recognition and diagnosis of the floppy infant syndrome. It includes a review of some of the more important causes and provides a practical approach to the assessment and management such children require. The text of the first edition has been completely revised, but the emphasis has not changed: it remains an immensely practical handbook for the clinician.

This book contains the refereed proceedings with the best papers of the Second International Joint Conference on Biomedical Engineering Systems and Technologies (BIOSTEC 2009), held in Porto, Portugal, in January 2009.

The 29 revised full papers presented together with two invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected out of 380 paper submissions.

BIOSTEC was composed of three co-located conferences:

BIODEVICES (International Conference on Biomedical Electronics and Devices) focus on aspects related to electronics and mechanical engineering, especially equipments and materials inspired from biological systems and/or addressing biological requirements. Monitoring devices, instrumentation sensors and systems, biorobotics, micro-nanotechnologies and biomaterials are some of the technologies addressed at this conference.

BIOSIGNALS (International Conference on Bio-inspired Systems and Signal Processing) is a forum for those studying and using models and techniques inspired from or applied to biological systems. A diversity of signal types can be found in this area, including image, audio and other biological sources of information. The analysis and use of these signals is a multidisciplinary area including signal processing, pattern recognition and computational intelligence techniques, amongst others.

HEALTHINF (International Conference on Health Informatics) promotes research and development in the application of information and communication technologies (ICT) to healthcare and medicine in general and to the specialized support to persons with special needs in particular. Databases, networking, graphical interfaces, intelligent decision support systems and specialized programming languages are just a few of the technologies currently used in medical informatics. Mobility and ubiquity in healthcare systems, standardization of technologies and procedures, certification, privacy are some of the issues that medical informatics professionals and the ICT industry in general need to address in order to further promote ICT in healthcare.

Back Pain: How to Relieve Low Back Pain and Sciatica

Back Pain: How to Relieve Low Back Pain and Sciatica Review


See more picture


"This book is by far the best one I have read about back pain...a user-friendly, positive, helpful book on back pain that I will certainly recommend to all my patients."--C. B. Lewis, Ph.D.

Dr. Loren Fishman, a distinguished clinician and a trailblazer in the treatment of sciatica, believes there's only one road to relief: patients must become partners with their doctors in naming the cause of their pain and in making treatment decisions. Based on the latest research and on Dr. Fishman's fifteen years of experience in treating patients successfully, Back Pain is filled with pain-saving advice and instructional facts: so many adults suffer bouts of back pain that many doctors consider them normal occurrences; like a cold or flu more than four days of bed rest can make a back ache worse; patients who choose chiropractors visit them twice as often as those who choose medical doctors more than 25 percent of people who go to orthopedic surgeons have referred themselves; the initial treatment any doctor is likely to prescribe is aspirin; sciatica is one of the three major causes of back pain.
