Alon Y Avidan: Review of Sleep Medicine, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Designed as both a rigorous review textbook and a trusted clinical reference, Review of Sleep Medicine, 5th Edition, edited by Dr. Alon Avidan, provides a comprehensive and structured synthesis of the rapidly evolving field of sleep medicine. Whether the goal is board preparation, fellowship training, or enhancing day-to-day clinical decision-making , this authoritative resource equips clinicians and trainees with the knowledge framework needed to excel.

Organized for efficient learning and high-yield review , the text is divided into two complementary sections: Part One delivers concise yet academically robust review chapters that distill the essential science and clinical principles underlying sleep medicine-from foundational neurobiology and circadian physiology to complex diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Part Two features 24 carefully constructed practice examinations , each accompanied by detailed answer explanations that not only identify the correct response but also illuminate the clinical reasoning, evidence base, and diagnostic logic behind each question.

Written and curated by internationally recognized leaders in sleep medicine, the Fifth Edition reflects a multidisciplinary and globally informed perspective, integrating insights from neurology, pulmonary medicine, psychiatry, psychology, internal medicine, pediatrics, and sleep technology.
