The Central Nervous System Control of Respiration By: Holstege, Gert Publisher: Elsevier (S&T) Print ISBN: 9780444632746, 0444632743 eText ISBN: 9780444632746, 9780444632760, 044463276X Pages: 440 Format: EPUB Available from $ 288.00 USD SKU 9780444632746 Respiration is one of the most basic motor activities crucial for survival of the individual. It is under total control of the central nervous system, which adjusts respiratory depth and frequency depending on the circumstances the individual finds itself. For this reason this volume not only reviews the basic control systems of respiration, located in the caudal brainstem, but also the higher brain regions, that change depth and frequency of respiration. Scientific knowledge of these systems is crucial for understanding the problems in the many patients suffering from respiratory failure. This well-established international series examines major areas of basic and clinical research within neuroscience, as well as emerging subfields. Download eBook Free: https://ouo.io/RSPQhR
