دانلود کتاب عوارض و مدیریت پس از COVID-19

Even after 2 years, the COVID-19 pandemic continues globally with a waxing-waning course, already having caused considerable suffering and disease. Although initially thought of as an ailment limited to the respiratory tract, it is clear that the disease has a multisystem dimension. The extra-pulmonary manifestations have often resulted in unpredictable and unexpected adverse outcomes, such as cardio­vascular and thrombotic complications. As the experience with COVID-19 grows and we have longer follow-ups of patients after initial infection, numerous long-term sequelae have also been recognized affecting various organ systems to a vari­able degree. While most of these sequelae are fortunately not life-threatening, others, such as irreversible pulmonary fibrosis have caused significant morbidity and mortality.

It is now evident that post-COVID sequelae are likely to be an important new entity for medical professionals of all specialties. It is, therefore, essential that we keep ourselves informed regarding the numerous long-term manifestations of COVID-19. With this thought in mind, this book has been written to cover the vari­ous complications affecting different organ systems following COVID-19. Our attempt has been to cover all relevant systems and provides a comprehensive clini­cal reference. The book is intended not only for internists but also for various spe­cialties and sub-specialties who are likely to encounter COVID-19-related sequelae in their area of expertise. In addition, this will be a valuable sourcebook for post­graduates in various specialties. An attempt has been made to keep the text crisp but up to date with the currently available knowledge. Adequate referencing has been provided although the book is not meant to be an exhaustive source of references.

We gratefully acknowledge the support from the Springer (India) team and all the eminent faculty who contributed chapters of their specialty. We hope this book will benefit the readers and be enjoyed by them as much as we enjoyed bring­ing it out.
