About the Book

This handbook features the elements of the "Textbook of Diabetes" which are of relevance to general medicine, family practice and allied healthcare professionals. Although complications of diabetes can be fatal, they are seldom uppermost in the mind of the GP or patient when the condition is first presented. A keen eye is required to spot their insidious onset in the community setting. Furthermore, it is the responsibility of the GP to embrace the needs and problems of special groups of conditions, ethnic minorities, children and expectant mothers who have special requirements. The book contains 24 chapters of clinical relevance covering all important aspects of aetiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, management and complications. The visual emphasis makes access to important information quick and easy, a necessity in the context of general practice, and gives this book a clear role alongside the parent volume.

Table of Contents:
Diagnosis and classification of diabetes mellitus; the clinical problems of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus; the clinical problems of non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus; the causes of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus; the causes of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus; other types of diabetes; diabetic control and its management; the metabolic importance of endogenous B-cell function and C-peptide; treatment of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus; treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus; hypoglycaemia and diabetes; diabetic ketoacidosis, non-ketoic hyperosmolar coma and lactic acidosis; diabetic microvascular disease - its nature and causes; special groups; living with diabetes - intercurrent events (surgery in diabetic patients); drugs and diabetes mellitus; the diabetic foot; the skin in diabetes mellitus; sexual function in diabetic men spreading the load - the roles of the general practitioner and the diabetic specialist nurse.

Review :
."the book is packed with facts, well-written and beautifully illustrated, with many excellent diagrams and illustrations......it certainly makes compelling reading as a source of additional reading for those who want a little more "in-depth" knowledge, and can be thoroughly recommended for this purpose." Practical Diabetes January/February 1994 Vol. 11 No. 1
