Features, Transmission, Detection, and Case Studies in COVID-19

About this book

Features, Transmission, Detection, and Case Studies in COVID-19 examines the effects of the virus on the body, as well as its transmission and clinical profile. This volume begins with an introduction to the virus and its pathogenesis, transmission, and avoidance, followed by sections on pulmonary and cardiovascular effects, obesity, diabetes, the liver, detection issues, and biomarkers. Vaccines and treatment are also discussed. Specific case studies covered include hypoxia, acute kidney injury, pneumonia, and neurological effects. This volume is relevant for all clinicians and scientists working to ensure the best outcomes for patients with COVID-19. - Discusses COVID-19 biology, including pathogenesis and transmission - Describes systemic issues caused by COVID-19, including cardiovascular effects and loss of taste and smell - Outlines detection methods, biomarkers associated with severity, and disease outcomes - Features individual chapter introductions, summaries, and case studies to provide comprehensive descriptions of COVID-19 symptoms and effects - Contains chapters with key facts, dictionary of terms, summary points, applications to other areas pertinent to each chapter, and policies and procedures
