Inhaltsangabe

This comprehensive revision of the well-received first edition provides everything that a clinician treating patients with cystic fibrosis will need in a single volume. A substantial amount of new information has accumulated during the last five years, ranging from advances in the basic scientific understanding of the condition, through novel treatment options to improvements in the delivery of care both in the hospital and the home. To reflect these developments, new chapters have been added on diagnostic genotype/phenotype correlations, screening, reproductive issues, surgery, quality of life and health economics, while other areas such as the organization of home care have been expanded. Edited by two senior physicians from one of the largest cystic fibrosis centers in the world (London's Brompton Hospital) and with increased input from leading authorities in North America, Europe and Australia presenting a truly international perspective, and will establish the book as the essential reference in the field.
