Ménière's Disease

Autor Helmut Schaaf
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 sep 2021

This book puts the focus on Ménière’s disease regarding actual questions and a pragmatic approach to the illness, which is characterized by spasmodic rotatory vertigo, hearing loss and tinnitus. The aim of this book is to offer perspectives and guidance for persons affected by Ménière’s disease and their relatives as well as members of medical and psychotherapeutic staff. In case of Ménière’s disease the suffering may result in an anxious observation of an increasingly limited movement space combined with insecurity and helplessness in addition to the organic impairment (hearing difficulties). Moreover an occupational disability and depressive developments may occur. Nonetheless, as this work will show, help and support are possible and available. Sidenote: This book is the 1st edition in English based on the translation of the updated 8th edition published in German.

Content:

Information about recent findings dealing with the illness – Refined medical possibilies and boundaries – Improved psychosomatic approach and handling of the illness

The Author:

Dr. med. Helmut Schaaf had worked as an anaesthesiologist, until he fell ill from Ménière’s disease himself. He had to stop working in his original profession. Since 1994 Dr. med. Helmut Schaaf has worked as senior physician in charge and head of the otolaryngology department at the „Tinnitus-Klinik Dr. Hesse" in Bad Arolsen (Germany). He has already published several books and scientific essays on topics like vertigo, tinnitus, dizziness e.g. rotatory vertigo and Ménière’s disease. This book is a translation of the original German 1st edition Morbus Menière by Helmut Schaaf published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2017.The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.

Notă biografică

Dr. med. Helmut Schaaf arbeitete als Facharzt für Anästhesie, bevor er selbst an Morbus Menière erkrankte. Er musste deshalb seine ursprüngliche Tätigkeit aufgeben. Seit 1994 ist er Ltd. Oberarzt in Bad Arolsen, jetzt in der Tinnitus-Klinik Dr. Hesse und der dortigen Gleichgewichtsambulanz. Er hat mehrere Bücher und wissenschaftliche Beiträge zu den Themen Morbus Menière, Schwindel, Tinnitus und Hyperakusis geschrieben.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

This book summarizes the concrete, practical issues surrounding Ménière’s  disease with vertigo, hearing loss, tinnitus, and offers perspectives and recommendations for affected persons, relatives, and medical and psychotherapeutic practitioners.In the course of Ménière’s  disease, in addition to the organic impairment anxious observation with increasing restriction of movement space, insecurity and helplessness, and even occupational disability and depressive development may occur. Nevertheless, help and support are possible, how is shown in this first English edition.
This book is a translation of the original German 8th edition Morbus Menière by Helmut Schaaf published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2017.The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors. Even though book was subsequently carefully proofread and adjusted by the author, it may be that much of it sounds "bumpy" - perhaps as is fitting for the disorder, certainly as is fitting for the fact that the author is not a native speaker of English. Nevertheless, the facts are described accurately..
The contents
