Description - Blood: Hemostasis, Transfusion and Alternatives in the Perioperative Period by Carol L. Lake

This text is intended to be of use to anaesthesiologists, surgeons, obstetricians and specialists in transfusion medicine who must manage patients with pre-existing or acquired coagulopathies, using blood or blood products as well as other therapeutic modalities. This book presents a broad, global approach to each specific disease or pathophysiologic process, avoiding specific institutional or individual viewpoints. It also offers critical analyses of equipment and methods used to monitor haemostasis and haemotherapy. Topics covered include: clinical application of haemostasis, anticoagulation, blood and blood product transfusion; approaches for avoiding transfusion; pharmacological methods for reducing blood loss in the perioperative period (preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative); perioperative evaluation and management of anaemia; and blood coagulation during liver, kidney and pancreas transplantation.
