Many patients with pulmonary complaints fail to improve despite
physicians' best efforts. Sometimes, we ascribe this failure to
lack of adherence with therapy, or to the severity of the
condition. What we often fail to appreciate, however, is that
sometimes the lack of improvement can be explained by the patients'
psychological states. The first section of Functional Respiratory
Disorders: When Respiratory Symptoms Do Not Respond to Pulmonary
Treatment will help clinicians recognize functional respiratory
symptoms that can arise as a result of both organic and
psychological causes. The second section of this book provides
detailed discussions of such disorders, links to video examples of
laryngoscopic evaluation of patients with vocal cord issues, case
studies and quizzes. Examples and exercises that should strengthen
the clinician's confidence in identifying and treating these
functional conditions are also provided. Finally, the third section
of the book will help the clinician differentiate the patients for
whom referral to a mental health provider is mandatory from those
for whom other approaches may be useful. For the latter group, the
book teaches clinicians to empower themselves by learning how to
incorporate various therapies for functional disorders into their
practice, including biofeedback, breathing techniques, basic
cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, and hypnosis. Links are
provided to instructive video examples of biofeedback, hypnosis,
and speech therapy. Practical strategies for obtaining training in
these modalities are provided in the appendix. Functional
Respiratory Disorders: When Respiratory Symptoms Do Not Respond to
Pulmonary Treatment is an important new book that will help
clinicians consider the possible impact of functional contributions
to the clinical presentation of every patient with respiratory
symptoms and identified respiratory disease.
