About this book

New edition of a concise, comprehensive, easy-to-read pocket book distilling the most clinically up-to-date information on thrombotic and bleeding disorders

In a concise manner, Blombäck's Essential Guide to Blood Coagulation distills the most clinically up-to-date information on thrombotic and bleeding disorders, including the latest treatment strategies for key conditions and diseases. This book covers both the stable and the acute stages of hereditary and acquired bleeding and thrombotic disorders in adults, children, and geriatric patients. It also highlights the laboratory tests that can aid in diagnosing and identifying the cause of bleeding and/or thrombosis in a patient.

The book is organized into four main sections, each featuring numerous updates in this new edition. The first part introduces the reader to laboratory hemostasis and hemostasis physiology. The second part covers bleeding disorders, including a new chapter on bleeding disorders and aging. The third part discusses thromboembolic disorders, with a new chapter on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). The final section addresses special issues in hemostasis, with new chapters on hemostasis in renal disease, liver disorders, and cancer, as well as updated information on thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.

This edition of Blombäck's Essential Guide to Blood Coagulation also includes updates on:

Hemostasis in COVID-19 and vaccine-induced thrombotic thrombocytopenia (VITT), a rare condition observed during pandemic
Critical bleeding in different clinical situations and hemostasis in obstetrics and gynecology
Platelet disorders, and rare coagulation factor deficiencies, cerebral vein and splanchnic vein thrombosis
The greater paradigm shift in the treatment of hereditary bleeding disorders since the last edition was published
Laboratory issues in hemostasis, including nomenclature and sampling
Specific issues of hemostasis in children

Compact enough to fit into a coat pocket, Blombäck's Essential Guide to Blood Coagulation is a valuable guide for all those treating patients to expand their knowledge of hemostatic disorders. This text fills a void for the residents, fellow doctors, and practicing physicians who need rapid access to up-to-date information.
