Cardiothoracic Interrelationships in Clinical Practice

By Anthony M. Cosentino

"Dr. Anthony Cosentino and Dr. Richard Martin have formulated an intriguing textbook on cardiothoracic relations in health and disease, with major emphasis on the seldom addressed and often underappreciated influence of chest pressure and lung mechanics on the hemodynamic performance of the heart and pulmonary circulation. It is the purpose of this book to review what is known about cardiothoracic interrealtionships, both in normal and disease. The material will be informative and intellectually stimulating for those who manage patients with cardiopulmonary dysfunctions, including physicians in pulmonary, cardiac and critical care medicine. It should also be of interest to cardiac surgeons and anesethesiologists engaged in ventilator work." From the Preface by Dean T Mason MD
