    Les désordres hydro-électrolytique... et les anomalies que l’on peut découvrir sur des examens sanguins et urinaires de routine sont fréquemment rencontrés en pratique clinique et parfois en situation d’urgence. Leur description clinique et l’analyse de leur mécanisme, avec l’aide de quelques examens simples – tels que ionogrammes sanguin et urinaire, gazométrie – permettent leur approche diagnostique. Les multiples facteurs à l’origine de ces troubles rendent le diagnostic et le traitement parfois difficiles à déterminer. Peu d’ouvrages francophones récents ont pour thème central l’analyse de ces désordres hydro-électrolytique... et acido-basiques. L’objectif de ce livre est de rappeler tout ce qu’il convient de savoir sur ces anomalies pour une meilleure prise en charge clinique et une orientation thérapeutique adaptée. Pour chaque trouble, on trouvera :- les bases physiologiques ; - des exercices d’application clinique ; - des explications physiopathologiques ; - le traitement.
