Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the drug abuse epidemic evolves, so do the tools needed to understand and treat it. Accordingly, Epidemiology of Drug Abuse takes the long view, cogently outlining what the book calls "the natural history of drug abuse" and redefining its complex phenomena to reflect our present-day knowledge. Twenty-six eminent contributors discuss the state and future of the field, balancing the practical concerns involved in gathering drug abuse data with the ethics of using the information. - Current thinking on pathways and etiology, as well as medical, psychological, and social sequelae of drug abuse - Proven, up-to-date methodologies for assessment - Challenges of gathering data from high-risk and other user populations - Sampling and application issues - Uses, sources, and limitations of treatment data - Analytical papers applying the methodologies to specific and global studies - The role of epidemiology studies in developing prevention strategies With this multifaceted approach to the subject, Epidemiology of Drug Abuse provides researchers and educators with a reference that sheds significant light on infrequently covered areas. In addition, its breadth and accessibility of coverage make it a teaching text suitable to courses in epidemiology, public health, and drug abuse.
Download or read book What Works In Drug Abuse Epidemiology written by Blanche Frank and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1992-01-20 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This excellent overview of the state-of-the-art drug abuse epidemiology provides the necessary information to approach the first step in solving the drug abuse problem--describing and identifying all the elements that contribute to it. These lively and descriptive accounts of drug abuse epidemiology guide drug abuse researchers, public health experts, and social scientists as they gather and evaluate critical drug abuse information for the particular population they serve. Authoritative contributors offer practical advice regarding what works in drug abuse epidemiology, what doesn’t work, and the reasons why. First-hand knowledge on ethnographic strategies, surveillance techniques, and practical approaches for professionals, previously with few resources and little expertise, will keep them on the cutting edge of this field. What Works in Drug Abuse Epidemiology provides a variety of examples of epidemiologic research methods concentrating on three major themes. The approaches and findings of epidemiological efforts nationally and internationally are presented, demonstrating the adaptability of methods under the varying cultural and political climates of the United States, Mexico, Great Britain, and European countries. Chapters are included which offer strategies for studying hard-to-reach populations that are especially at risk, specifically black youth living in ghettos and homeless people in public shelters. Particularly useful to professionals developing epidemiological strategies are discussions of creative, non-traditional studies for such problems as designer drugs, and drug use on the streets of New York City which assist drug abuse epidemiologists in developing strategies to get at the heart of specific drug abuse problems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public Health and Epidemiology for Pharmacy provides students with a concise overview of concepts relevant to public health and epidemiology through the lens of pharmacy practice. The text focuses on topics including health determinants, study design, health literacy, cultural competency, health promotion, and drug safety. Pharmacists are increasingly being called to integrate public health into their practice across community, health systems, and other settings. This text is designed to provide learners with a survey of topics relevant to this intersection of professions. Chapters discuss the history and structure of public health within the United States, basic aspects of the underlying science of epidemiology and study design, and the contributions of biology, behaviors, environment, and healthcare as key determinants of health. Further sections provide learners with an exploration of the impact of cultural influences and health literacy, social and behavioral aspects of health promotion, and mechanisms to enhance drug safety and reduce harm from adverse drug reactions, medication errors, overdoses, and shortages. Designed to provide learners with practical, approachable information, Public Health and Epidemiology for Pharmacy is an ideal text for introductory courses in pharmacy and public health. Jordan R.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a summary of material presented in the course given in the International School of Phannacology on "Drug Epidemiology and Post-Marketing Surveillance" between September 27 and October 8, 1990, at the "Ettore Majorana Center for Scientific Culture" in Erice, Sicily. The course, which was a NATO Advanced Study Institute, included lectures and workshops presented by experts in the new field of phannacoepidemiology. The material covered includes various approaches to spontaneous reporting of adverse drug reactions, including aggregate approaches, such as those used in France, and detailed analyses of individual reports, such as that done in The Netherlands and in Sweden. Also, included are studies using traditional epidemiology methods. In addition, modern pharmacoepidemiology makes considerable use of automated databases. As such, information is presented on their use as well. Phannacoepidemiology started in hospitals and some of the newest work in the field is returning to the hospital as a site for studies. Material on these topics was presented as well. Finally, selected new methodologic developments were outlined in specific examples presented that were of regulatory and commercial importance. This new field of phannacoepidemiology is exploding in interest internationally. Evidence of this is the increasing development of pharmacoepidemiology programs in industry, medical schools, pharmacy schools, and schools of public health. Also, there is a new International Society ofPhannacoepidemiology. Practitioners in this field tend to specialize in either analyses of spontaneous reporting or the use of formal epidemiologic techniques.
