This new book is dedicated entirely to understanding the complex and unique characteristics of patients suffering from neuromuscular pathology. Renowned specialists in neuromuscular patient care have contributed their expertise to discuss numerous key points. One of the critical aspects of care is respiratory support, as it is often indispensable to sustain the patient's life. Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has assumed an increasingly important role in the management of patients with chronic respiratory failure secondary to neuromuscular disease. The NIV approach, along with complementary techniques, is thoroughly described. Special attention is given to the management of airways and clearance of secretions, with a dedicated session addressing these critical aspects. Additionally, a novel theme, the laryngeal response pattern during NIV and cough assist techniques, is explored. The timing of tracheostomy and choice of cannula play pivotal roles in the management of neuromuscular patients, necessitating the use of invasive mechanical ventilation. Other topics of interest include perioperative respiratory management, weaning from mechanical ventilation, and extubation. The utilization of imaging techniques, such as videofluoroscopy of swallowing and sonography, aids clinicians in diagnosing complications. Today, pulmonary rehabilitation has become an integral and indispensable part of patient care. This comprehensive text, developed with the invaluable contributions of experts dedicated to the daily care of patients with neuromuscular disorders, represents an ambitious project aimed at providing an extensive discussion of the topic and supporting those already engaged in this field, as well as those embarking on it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1286g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781536198904\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":45224302346490,"sku":"9781536198904","price":229.06,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1708689205299_book.jpg?v=1708717884","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/respiratory-disorders-in-neuromuscular-disease-management-and-practice-principles-9781536198904","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
