| Summary |
The new edition of the ERS Handbook of Respiratory Sleep Medicine is truly reflective of this diversity, covering everything from neurobiology to digital health. Broad in scope but easy to use, the book is broken down into 17 sections, including diagnosis and management, neuromuscular disorders, hypoventilation syndromes, nonrespiratory sleep disorders, and paediatrics |
