In January 1980, the First Symposium on the Measurement of Tis sue
Oxygen Pressure in Patients was held in Frankfurt. After a 4-year
"rest period," the organizers of the 1984 symposium, Profes sor R.
Huch of Zurich and Dr. J. Hauss of Munster, together with myself,
extended another invitation to come to Frankfurt to find out what
had gone on in the field of oxygen pressure measurement and its
application in clinical medicine. As the following presentations
will show, the application of oxygen pressure measurements has been
broadened considerably. Furthermore, technological advances have
been made, particularly with the increased use of computers. For
various reasons, including technical ones, these methods have not
been adapted as widely as one would want. Although con gresses on
tissue oxygen pressure have been held in the last few years, the
clinical aspect of tissue P0 measurement has not been 2 dealt with
in such a concentrated and comprehensive way since 1980. It
therefore seemed necessary to hold such a symposium, not only for
scientific reasons, but also to enable a larger group of clini
cians to gain insight into the importance of the possibilities
these methods offer."
Hemorheologic therapy has gained considerably in importance in
recent years. This detailed and comprehensive book enumerates,
discusses, and critically evaluates those treatment methods in
which therapeutic success rests essentially on achieving an
improvement in hemodynamics. After a general account of clinical
hemorheology, fundamental aspects of hemorheologic methods and the
eval- uation and assessment of hemorheologic parameters are
discussed and the pathophysiology is described in detail. The
treatment methods and substances that bring about improvement of
the hemodynamics are described in chronologic order of first
publication, and in each case all known later publications are also
discussed in the order in which they appeared. This topical account
of hemorheologic therapy - the results reported to date and the
spectrum of applications - will be a valuable addition to the
library both of the specialist and of all interested doctors in
hospital and general practice.
