Download or read book Cerebrovascular Diseases in Children written by Anthony J. Raimondi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is estimated that the functionally significant body of knowledge for a given medical specialty changes radically every 8 years. New special ties and "sub-specialization" are occurring at approximately an equal rate. Historically, established journals have not been able either to absorb this increase in publishable material or to extend their reader ship to the new specialists. International and national meetings, sympo sia and seminars, workshops, and newsletters successfully bring to the attention of physicians within developing specialties wh at is occur ring, but generally only in demonstration form without providing historical perspective, pathoanatomical correlates, or extensive discus sion. Page and time limitations oblige the authors to present only the essence of their material. Pediatric neurosurgery is an example of a specialty that has devel oped during the past 15 years. Over this period neurosurgeons have obtained special training in pediatric neurosurgery and then dedicated themselves primarily to its practice. Centers, Chairs, and educational programs have been established as groups of neurosurgeons in different countries throughout the world organized themselves respectively into national and international societies for pediatric neurosurgery. These events were both preceded and followed by specialized courses, national and international journals, and ever-increasing clinical and invest igative studies into all aspects of surgically treatable diseases of the child's nervous system.

Download or read book Vessel Health and Preservation The Right Approach for Vascular Access written by Nancy L. Moureau and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-06-10 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Open access book offers updated and revised information on vessel health and preservation (VHP), a model concept first published in poster form in 2008 and in JVA in 2012, which has received a great deal of attention, especially in the US, UK and Australia. The book presents a model and a new way of thinking applied to vascular access and administration of intravenous treatment, and shows how establishing and maintaining a route of access to the bloodstream is essential for patients in acute care today. Until now, little thought has been given to an intentional process to guide selection, insertion and management of vascular access devices (VADs) and by default actions are based on crisis management when a quickly selected VAD fails. The book details how VHP establishes a framework or pathway model for each step of the patient experience, intentionally guiding, improving and eliminating risk when possible. The evidence points to the fact that reducing fragmentation, establishing a pathway, and teaching the process to all stakeholders reduces complications with intravenous therapy, improves efficiency and diminishes cost. As such this book appeals to bedside nurses, physicians and other health professionals.
Download or read book Hypertension Heredity and Stroke written by Cristina Moratinos and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers the latest research from around the world on hypertension and stroke. While it is widely known how raised heart rate adversely affects ischaemic heart disease and congestive heart failure, it has not been clearly shown how low heart rate increases tendency to stroke. Thus the influence of heart rate on development of stroke is examined in this book. The etiology of paediatric stroke, a potentially devastating condition, is also discussed, since it is an important condition that often remains unknown in a considerable number of patients. Furthermore, arterial hypertension and cardiovascular complications in patients with glomerular kidney disease are also explored in this book. The progress that has been made towards identifying the genetics of risk factors in polygenic and multifactorial intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is presented and data regarding monogenic conditions associated with ICH is summarised. Other chapters in this book include the examination of the association between blood pressure (BP) and bone mineral content (BMC) in paediatrics; arterial hypertension as one of the main clinical symptoms of aortic coarctation in children, and a review of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) as a non-invasive method of blood pressure assessment, which is considered to be a very useful tool in the diagnosis of arterial hypertension in adults, teenagers and children.

Bridging science and practice, the book reviews the scientific literature, research on clinical implications, and evidence-based treatment of such disorders as: Dyslexia and Dyscalculia Specific Language Impairment/Dysphasia Autism Spectrum Disorders Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Tourette Syndrome Traumatic Brain Injury Childhood Cancer Epilepsy Cerebrovascular Disease Low Birth Weight Environmental Toxin Exposure Neurotoxins, Pregnancy, and Subsequent Disorders Chromosomal Anomalies Neurocutaneous Disorders Metabolic Disorders Each case study complements the content of each chapter by illustrating how the assessment process can inform intervention efforts for children. In addition, the cases humanize the effects of various disorders and demonstrate the usefulness of neuropsychological information in treatment and intervention planning, especially within children's educational and social contexts.
