Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Diagnosis using Electromyography (EMG) presents a new and innovative method of COPD diagnosis using EMG to analyze sternomastoid muscle activity using features extraction and classification. The book describes the methodology of EMG analysis, the slope-based onset detection algorithm and SEMG analysis in time, frequency and time frequency domain analyses. It also explores the identification of frequencies for single frequency Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) analysis and feature extraction and selection for successful classification COPD into its severity grades. The book provides a compilation of all techniques used in the literatures and emphasizes newly proposed techniques for the early detection of COPD. Fully comprehensive, the book includes discussion of limitations of existing methods for COPD diagnosis and introduces new efficient methods for COPD identification, classification and early diagnosis.

This book presents the best practice, indications and drugs most used in the practice of noninvasive ventilation (NIV). In the last two decades NIV has made a lot of progress in different scenarios and etiologies of respiratory failure. The treatment of these patients frequently involves the use of drugs to control patient's symptoms such as dyspnea, discomfort and some of them can have direct or indirect effects on lung function. The volume is organized into various sections - dedicated both to adults as well as pediatrics - where the most frequent clinical conditions requiring for the use of a pharmacological support are described. Furthermore, this book is conceived as a quick reference guide including an analysis of the indications of drugs dosage and the pharmacological interactions that can be observed in lung function in patients undergoing NIV. Thanks to its contents, readers can quickly consult indications, contraindications, doses, the most suitable treatments to achieve the maximum NIV as well as the most important side effects reported by clinicians. In this book specialists in critical care and pharmacology, managing both adult and pediatric population, shed a light to the proper medication management and best drugs choice in patients with indications for NIV.
