"Covers a broad range of subjects in the field of hemostasis and thrombosis. It is organized into six sections. Part I includes an introduction to the consultative process, laboratory testing, and the overall approach to the patient with bleeding. Part II covers various conditions leading to bleeding: hemophilia, von Willebrand's disease, immune thrombocytopenic purpura, disseminated intravascular coagulation, and platelet dysfunction. Part III deals with thrombotic processes, including deep venous thrombosis, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, and the antiphospholipid antibody syndrome. Part IV covers pharmacologic agents. It deals with the usual anticoagulants and antifibrinolytic agents but also includes some succinct information on transfusion. A brief, but valuable, final chapter deals with topical hematostatic agents. The last two sections of the book cover special areas. Problems specific to women are covered in chapters on the thrombotic risks of contraceptive and postmenopausal hormone therapy. The authors of this chapter did not have the final results of the Women's Health Initiative available, but the discussion presages its conclusions. Other chapters cover bleeding disorders and thrombophilic states in pregnancy. Part VI includes what the editors call "special considerations" and covers a diverse range of topics from outpatient anticoagulant therapy to hemostasis and thrombosis in the intensive care unit."
