Mustard Lung: Diagnosis and Treatment of Respiratory Disorders in Sulfur-Mustard Injured Patients brings together the details regarding pathophysiology, medication, and protective issues to provide a comprehensive look at health problems associated with sulfur mustard injury. It provides a bench-to-bedside look at the long term complications of vesicant exposure in humans as well as how mustard gas exposure affects lung function. By providing guidelines and approaches for the diagnosis, pathogenesis, and treatment of SM injury cases, this book is helpful for a wide range of medical researchers and clinicians. For decades, chemical respiratory disorders were diagnosed and managed traditionally similar to other chronic respiratory diseases. However, the exact nature of chemical respiratory disorders is different and needs to be treated as such.

This book offers scientific information and a practical guide to the clinical management of sulfur and nitrogen mustard exposure, including information on the history, pharmacology and toxicology of mustard compounds. Basic and Clinical Toxicology of Mustard Compounds details actute, late and long term effects of sulfur mustard exposure, particularly the respiratory, dermatological, ophthalmological immunological and psychiatric complications. This volume is a key resource for clinical toxicologists, military and emergency physicians who are involved in teaching and research of toxic compounds and for all regulatory, security, military, medical and health professions who are responsible for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the chemical warfare poisonings.
