Pulmonary Rehabilitation: A Multidisciplinary Approach by Rachel Garrod
Comprehensive chapters address pulmonary rehabilitation from the perspective of the patient, nursing, physio, occupational and medical therapists. Recent evaluations concern nutritional implications in COPD, selection criteria and specificity of exercise.
The book examines psycho-social influences on COPD and provides practical best evidence treatment advice. An exciting and promising look to the future by Professor Calverley concludes the book. Pulmonary Rehabilitation: An Interdisciplinary Approach is an integrated evaluation of the effect of pulmonary rehabilitation on patient care, with critical assessment of outcome tools and the important contribution of an interdisciplinary approach.
