Clinical Melioidosis

A Practical Guide to Diagnosis and Management

About this book

Melioidosis is an endemic tropical disease and is fast becoming an emerging global concern. Its clinical mimicry with several other common diseases has made its diagnosis and treatment difficult. This book identifies a gap in the literature and represents the management and diagnosis of this fatal but curable disease. It provides detailed coverage of its history, epidemiology, the latency of the agent, pathogenesis, manifestations, clinical clues for detection, microbiological diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and environmental aspects. This book is for clinicians, infectious disease specialists, microbiologists, and public health professionals in countries where melioidosis is endemic.

Key Features:
• Provides practical guidance on clinical diagnosis, management, and prevention of melioidosis.
• Features high-quality radiological and clinical photographs for clinicians and professionals.
• Explores the latest techniques and advancements in laboratory diagnosis.
