Blood Substitutes - Principles, Methods, Products & Clinical Trials: A Karger Landes Systems Publication

By T.M. Chang

This volume, the second in a two-volume series on blood substitutes, presents a continuation of the work of Dr. T.M.S. Chang, known to many as a true pioneer for his early research in blood substitutes. While the first volume was single-authored and explored the many problems associated with hemoglobin replacement, this book brings together the work of many experts in the field who offer solutions to these problems, giving an overview of all the blood substitutes currently in phase II or phase III clinical trials in patients. Chapters cover topics such as surgical indications of blood substitutes, perfluorochemicals, and hemoglobin lipid vesicles as blood substitutes.
