This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contexte : 3,2 millions de décès seraient attribuables à la sédentarité, chaque année dans le monde. La promotion de l'activité physique (AP) est devenue un objectif de santé publique, et peut être réalisée sous forme de prescription structurée chez des patients à risque cardio-vasculaire. L'impact de ces interventions nécessite cependant l'établissement d'un référentiel pour leurs modes d'évaluation, souvent variés dans la littérature. Méthode : Cette revue opportuniste de la littérature a été réalisée par deux investigateurs indépendants sur les bases de données PubMed, Cochrane et Google Scholar. Les articles traitant de la prescription structurée d'AP chez le patient à risque cardio-vasculaire ont été analysés, à la recherche des différentes méthodes de mesures employées et au moyen d'une grille d'évaluation innovante. Résultats : 28 articles se démarquant par leur rigueur scientifique ont été inclus, dont presque la moitié portaient sur des populations exclusivement féminines. Un article sur deux évaluait également des populations accumulant plusieurs facteurs de risque cardio-vasculaires. Différents types de mesures étaient employés, et influencés significativement par la pratique régulière d'une AP. Anthropométriques, l'indice de masse corporelle, la fréquence cardiaque, la pression artérielle ainsi que la composition corporelle graisseuse étaient des indicateurs fiables, plus que le poids seul. Sérologiques, ressortaient le calcul de l'insulino-résistance ainsi que le dosage des fractions du cholestérol. Ces résultats pouvaient être combinés dans un calcul du risque cardiovasculaire à 10 ans, pertinent. Enfin, la capacité aérobie avec le calcul de la consommation maximale d'oxygène, ainsi que la mesure de la dépense énergétique par questionnaires, représentaient des alternatives efficaces. Accéléromètre et podomètre étaient surtout réservés à l'évaluation de l'observance de la prescription, ou comme outils motivationnels. Conclusion : Le choix de la bonne méthode d'évaluation doit être réfléchi. Reproductible, fiable et acceptable par le patient, elle représente un élément essentiel à l'accompagnement dans les changements de comportement. Standardisée, elle offre une meilleure comparabilité des interventions de promotion à l'AP.

Book excerpt: INTRODUCTION Au cours du XXème siècle, la sédentarité se développe au détriment de la pratique d’une activité physique. Les bénéfices d’une activité physique régulière sont connus, surtout chez les patients à risque cardiovasculaire (2ème cause de mortalité en France). La prescription d’une activité physique appartient aux traitements non-médicamenteux, encore difficilement acceptable par les patients et les médecins. Ce travail évalue la prescription d’une activité physique régulière en soins primaires chez les patients cardiovasculaires et recherche les freins et les difficultés associés. MATERIEL ET METHODES Les 38 médecins participants ont inclus 197 patients présentant un moins un facteur de risque cardiovasculaire, entre janvier et octobre 2010. Les réponses aux différentes questions mettent en évidence les freins et difficultés de la prescription par les médecins et de la réalisation par les patients. L’analyse des données est réalisée sur les logiciels Access® et Excel®. RESULTATS La non-prescription d’activité physique était minoritaire (26%). Les freins sont d’origine mixte : patient et médecin. Les freins des patients sont majoritairement le résultat d’un manque de temps (au niveau professionnel et/ou personnel), d’un défaut de motivation et d’une absence d’infrastructure. Les freins des médecins sont les supposées du patient (inobservance, manque de motivation) ainsi que leurs propres limites à la prescription d’une activité physique. Ces difficultés sont marquées par le manque de temps en consultation, la priorité d’équilibrer les facteurs de risque cardiovasculaires, les échecs antérieurs de cette prescription. CONCLUSION Les freins à la prescription d’une activité physique sont l’association des limites propres au patient et des représentations du médecin

This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Objectifs : mesurer, en soins primaires, à l'aide d'un questionnaire d'activité physique validé, l'évolution de la pratique d'activité physique par des patients à risque cardio-vasculaire, sur une période de 3 mois. Étudier les facteurs associés à l'évolution de la pratique d'activité physique après prescription. Méthodes : étude quantitative interventionnelle par suivi de cohorte. Des patients hypertendus et / ou diabétiques non insulino-dépendants et / ou hypercholestérolémiques ont été inclus par un échantillon de médecins généralistes et se sont vus remettre une prescription écrite d'activité physique. Leur niveau d'activité physique a été mesuré à l'inclusion, puis à 1 mois et 3 mois de suivi par le questionnaire IPAQ version courte. Le score IPAQ moyen à 1 mois et à 3 mois a été comparé au score IPAQ à l'inclusion. Une analyse bivariée a été réalisée pour déterminer les facteurs associés à l'évolution du score IPAQ après prescription. Résultats : l'activité physique n'augmentait pas significativement à 1 mois (médiane +566 METmin/semaine, IQR 25-75 : -921 - 1640 p = 0,12), ni à 3 mois (+436 MET-min/semaine (IQR 25-75 : -789 - 1960), p = 0,073) après prescription sur la totalité de l'échantillon. Néanmoins, elle augmentait significativement chez les patients initialement évalués comme « sédentaires » (+833 MET-min/semaine, IQR 25-75 : 421 - 1897 p = 0,007) ou « modérément actifs » (+482 METmin/semaine (IQR 25-75 : -314 - 2674, p = 0,005) Conclusion : la prescription d'activité physique augmente le niveau d'activité physique à 3 mois des patients initialement sédentaires et modérément actifs. La création d'un outil simple de repérage des patients très actifs permettrait d'optimiser la prescription d'activité physique en médecine générale.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contexte : Le manque d'activité physique (AP) régulière en France est en constante croissance et constitue un problème majeur de santé publique. Ce comportement de santé peut être modifiable avec l'établissement de stratégies de promotion à l'AP comme peuvent l'être les conseils délivrés par les médecins. L'évaluation de leur efficacité est un temps important mais la multiplication d'outils disponibles rend celle-ci plus difficile. Méthode : Une revue de littérature réalisée par deux investigateurs indépendants sur la base de trois banques de données PubMed, Google Scholar et Cochrane Library a été menée de juillet à novembre 2013. L'objectif principal était de répertorier l'ensemble des méthodes d'évaluation des conseils d'AP, chez le patient à risque cardio-vasculaire, grâce à l'élaboration d'une grille de sélection et d'une grille composite adaptée des grilles de Jadad et de Newcastle-Ottawa. Résultats : Au total, 1914 articles ont été sélectionnés mais seulement 32 articles portants sur les conseils simples ont été inclus. Les populations étudiées étaient sédentaires pour la plupart, présentant un ou plusieurs facteurs de risque cardio-vasculaire. Vingt-trois études utilisaient les questionnaires comme outil d'évaluation. Parmi celles-ci, 19 s'en servaient pour évaluer l'activité physique en tant que critère principal. Si l'utilisation des questionnaires était fréquente car d'utilisation simple, les résultats concernant l'AP pouvaient varier d'une étude à l'autre. Les mesures anthropométriques constituaient le second outil le plus utilisé avec en premier lieu la pression artérielle, le poids, le tour de taille et enfin l'indice de masse corporelle. Les mesures biologiques moins fréquemment utilisées dans cette sélection étaient tout de même privilégiées lorsqu'il s'agissait de patients dyslipidémiques (statut lipidique) ou diabétiques (glycémie, hémoglobine glyquée). Les moins utilisés étaient les calculs de dépenses d'énergie, l'accéléromètre ainsi que le calcul du score de Framingham. Enfin, il faut souligner qu'une seule étude choisissait le podomètre dans un but spécifique d'augmenter l'AP, alors que les autres l'utilisaient pour favoriser l'adhésion du patient. Conclusion : Plusieurs outils de mesure ont été identifiés dans cette revue de littérature. Pour leur utilisation en pratique courante, et en médecine générale, une hiérarchisation semble nécessaire en tenant compte de leur pertinence, et de leur faisabilité.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L’importance de l’activité physique régulière pour notre santé a clairement été démontrée dans différentes études, comme le montre le rapport de l’INSERM de mars 2008[28], et notamment dans le cadre des maladies cardio-vasculaires que ce soit en prévention primaire ou secondaire. Ceci est d’autant plus important que les maladies cardio-vasculaires sont la première cause de mortalité dans les pays développés. Or, dans ces pays, l’évolution des modes de vie fait qu’on observe une diminution de l’activité physique que ce soit dans le milieu professionnel ou dans la vie courante. Ainsi, moins de la moitié des Français pratique une activité physique favorable à la santé[9]. La lutte contre la sédentarité est donc un problème de santé publique et entre dans le cadre de la prescription médicale. Ainsi, dans le cadre du projet APSP (Activité Physique en Soins Primaires) mis en place par le département universitaire d’enseignement et de recherche de médecine générale de Créteil, une étude pilote, menée à l’aide d’un questionnaire-test (visant à explorer les freins et les difficultés à la prescription d’une activité physique régulière en soins primaires), a été testée en situation réelle sur un petit échantillon de patients. Cette étude préliminaire a donc permis d’apporter quelques résultats permettant d’appréhender les obstacles au suivi d’une activité physique régulière mais aussi d’évaluer l’impact immédiat sur la motivation des patients. Elle a permis de créer deux autres questionnaires (questionnaire à 1 mois et questionnaire à 3 mois) afin d’évaluer l’impact de la consultation à court et à moyen terme.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Go beyond aging theories and examine the physiological and physical impacts of aging. Exercise and Physical Activity for Older Adults takes a close look at the physical implications of the aging process and how health, physical activity, and exercise interact in aging adults. With an international team of contributors composed of leading experts from across the field of gerontology, Exercise and Physical Activity for Older Adults delivers comprehensive, interdisciplinary coverage of the physical aging process and its effects on movement and exercise. Research on the physiological and physical implications of aging is presented, focusing on study outcomes and their practical application in optimizing healthy aging. Presented in an integrated and cohesive manner, this text is organized into four parts. Part I covers the theoretical foundations of biological aging, the implications of aging theories on medical research, and the social and economic impacts of demographic shifts due to population aging and global population size. Part II addresses age-related changes to the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, pulmonary, and endocrine systems. Part III covers the physical effects of aging on other dimensions of life, including balance, motor control, and physical functions. Part IV focuses on exercise and older adults, taking an in-depth look at exercise measurements and the main barriers to regular exercise. One full chapter is devoted to recommendations for optimizing health for the general public, while another chapter is focused on performance by elite older athletes who exercise beyond functional fitness. Chapter objectives, end-of-chapter summaries, and review questions highlight key concepts and promote learning retention. Behavior Check sidebars look at the impacts of aging on behavior, how behavior affects physical health and activity, and how changes in behavior can improve everyday living. Functional Fitness Checkup sidebars focus on the performance of daily movements that are vital for older adults who want to maintain their physical independence. Putting It Into Practice elements provide examples of real-life application of the concepts presented, facilitating a practical understanding of how to use the content to benefit clients. A definitive resource for students and health care professionals who study physical aging, conduct clinical research, or work with older adults as clients and patients, Exercise and Physical Activity for Older Adults helps readers understand the aging process and its effects on movement, exercise, and other dimensions of life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biosocialities, Genetics and the Social Sciences explores the social, cultural and economic transformations that result from innovations in genomic knowledge and technology. This pioneering collection uses Paul Rabinow’s concept of biosociality to chart the shifts in social relations and ideas about nature, biology and identity brought about by developments in biomedicine. Based on new empirical research, it contains chapters on genomic research into embryonic stem cell therapy, breast cancer, autism, Parkinson’s and IVF treatment, as well as on the expectations and education surrounding genomic research. It covers four main themes: novel modes of identity and identification, such as genetic citizenship the role of institutions, ranging from disease advocacy organizations and voluntary organizations to the state the production of biological knowledge, novel life-forms, and technologies the generation of wealth and commercial interests in biology. Including an afterword by Paul Rabinow and case studies on the UK, US, Canada, Germany, India and Israel, this book is key reading for students and researchers of the new genetics and the social sciences – particularly medical sociologists, medical anthropologists and those involved with science and technology studies.

Book excerpt: "Written by the founders of The Difficult Airway Course: Anesthesia and utilizing an instructive case-based approach, this text/DVD presents all of the leading-edge principles, tools, and procedures of airway assessment and management. The scope of the book encompasses the many airway devices that have been developed since the publication of the first edition, many of which have the potential to markedly enhance airway management. Extensively revised and updated, the second edition of Management of the Difficult and Failed Airway emphasizes how airway management is context-sensitive: included are strategies for treating patients in a range of settings, from prehospital care to the ER, as well as proven techniques for special patient populations. In addition, new chapters have been added to further refresh the book's content and provide you with a solid grasp of the most critical topics in this fast-evolving area. The book's effective organization has been maintained, beginning with the first section's focus on the basic foundations of difficult and failed airway management. The second section reviews must-know airway devices and techniques, while the third part of the text introduces case studies that thoroughly examine the application of these techniques in complex clinical situations. A final section covers the practical considerations, such as difficult airway carts and teaching and simulation in airway management."--Publisher description
Download or read book Computers and Games for Mental Health and Well Being written by Yasser Khazaal and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-07-12 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen important developments in the computer and game industry, including the emergence of the concept of serious games. It is hypothesized that tools such as games, virtual reality, or applications for smartphones may foster learning, enhance motivation, promote behavioral change, support psychotherapy, favor empowerment, and improve some cognitive functions. Computers and games may create supports for training or help people with cognitive, emotional, or behavioral change. Games take various formats, from board games to informatics to games with interactive rules of play. Similarly, computer tools may vary widely in format, from self-help or assisted computerized training to virtual reality or applications for smartphones. Some tools that may be helpful for mental health were specifically designed for that goal, whereas others were not. Gamification of computer-related products and games with a numeric format tend to reduce the gap between games and computers tools and increase the conceptual synergy in such fields. Games and computer design share an opportunity for creativity and innovation to help create, specifically design, and assess preventive or therapeutic tools. Computers and games share a design conception that allows innovative approaches to overcome barriers of the real world by creating their own rules. Yet, despite the potential interest in such tools to improve treatment of mental disorders and to help prevent them, the field remains understudied and information is under-disseminated in clinical practice. Some studies have shown, however, that there is potential interest and acceptability of tools that support various vehicles, rationales, objectives, and formats. These tools include traditional games (e.g., chess games), popular electronic games, board games, computer-based interventions specifically designed for psychotherapy or cognitive training, virtual reality, apps for smartphones, and so forth. Computers and games may offer a true opportunity to develop, assess, and disseminate new prevention and treatment tools for mental health and well-being. Currently, there is a strong need for state-of-the-art information to answer questions such as the following: Why develop such tools for mental health and well-being? What are the potential additions to traditional treatments? What are the best strategies or formats to improve the possible impact of these tools? Are such tools useful as a first treatment step? What is the potential of a hybrid model of care that combines traditional approaches with games and/or computers as tools? What games and applications have already been designed and studied? What is the evidence from previous studies? How can such tools be successfully designed for mental health and well-being? What is rewarding or attractive for patients in using such treatments? What are the worldwide developments in the field? Are some protocols under development? What are the barriers and challenges related to such developments? How can these tools be assessed, and how can the way that they work, and for whom, be measured? Are the potential benefits of such products specific, or can these additions be attributed to nonspecific factors? What are the users’ views on such tools? What are the possible links between such tools and social networks? Is there a gap between evidence-based results and market development? Are there any quality challenges? What future developments and studies are needed in the field?

Download or read book The UNESCO Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights written by H. ten Have and published by UNESCO. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 2005, UNESCO Member States adopted by acclamation the Universal Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights. For the first time in the history of bioethics, some 190 countries committed themselves and the international community to respect and apply fundamental ethical principles related to medicine, the life sciences and associated technologies. This publication provides a new impetus to the dissemination of the Declaration, and is part of the organisation's continuous effort to contribute to the understanding of its principles worldwide. The authors, who were almost all involved in the elaboration of the text of the Declaration, were asked to respond on each article: Why was it included? What does it mean? How can it be applied? Their responses shed light on the historical background of the text and its evolution throughout the drafting process. They also provide a reflection on its relevance to previous declarations and bioethical literature, and its potential interpretation and application in challenging and complex bioethical debates.
Download or read book The Great Cholesterol Con written by Dr Malcolm Kendrick and published by Kings Road Publishing. This book was released on 2008-07-07 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Statins are widely prescribed to lower blood cholesterol levels and claim to offer unparalleled protection against heart disease. Believed to be completely safe and capable of preventing a whole series of other conditions, they are the most profitable drug in the history of medicine. In this groundbreaking book, GP Malcolm Kendrick exposes the truth behind the hype. He will change the way we think about cholesterol forever. Rubbishing the diet-heart hypothesis, in which clinical trials 'prove' that high cholesterol causes heart disease and a high-fat diet leads to heart disease, Kendrick lambastes a powerful pharmaceutical industry and unquestioning medical profession, who, he claims, perpetuate the madcap concepts of 'good' and 'bad' cholesterol and cholesterol levels to convince millions of people to unnecessarily spend billions of pounds on statins. Clearly and comprehensively debunking assumptions on what constitute a healthy lifestyle and diet, "The Great Cholesterol Con" is the accessible, indispensable and absorbing case against statins and for a more common-sense approach to heart disease and general wellbeing. No more over-hyped miracle drugs; no more garlic, red wine, anti-oxidants, fruit or vegetables; even a vegetarian diet is rejected in this controversial yet authoritative critique of how we have been mislead over how food and drugs affect our coronary health. Here, for the first time, is the invaluable guide for anyone who though there was a miracle cure for heart disease, "The Great Cholesterol Con" is a fascinating breakthrough that will set dynamite under the whole area.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Yosephs have written the most stunning expose. In plain language they reveal the science, the corruption and the enormous conspiracy it took to bring statins to market. As fast paced as a Mickey Spillane novel they report the research, the fraud and the facts like a detective in hot pursuit of a Nazi war criminal. It is riveting. They have accomplished the impossible: they have made both complex science and medical history fascinating to read. What could not be done in an expose they accomplished with almost unbelievablable ease. It will change your paradigms about medicine forever."--p.[4] of cover.
