Produktbeschreibung

The First Wiggers Bernard Conference on Shock, Sepsis and Organ Failure, named after two outstanding scientists in shock research and experimental medicine, took an interdisciplinary approach, in hopes of gaining new perspective in understanding the development of the multi-organ failure. This book updates basic and clinical information on the state-of-the-art of the pathophysiology of multi-organ failure. Both clinicians and scientists concerned with basic research will find it to be a valuable source.
