Download or read book Hip Replacement a Patient s Journal What You Will Want to Know Before Deciding written by Dan Junot and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-28 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: YOU already have hip problems? You -- or someone you love? That's probably why you are reading this now. And you have a lot of hip pain. You're not sure what's causing it. And you're not really sure what, if anything, can be done about it. And because it's already pretty severe, you suspect it won't get better on its own. So you know that, sooner-or-later, you'll have to do something about it. But what? You've heard about hip surgery-but that whole idea seems kind-of scary. You don't even want to think about having surgery if you can help it. But how much longer can you "help it?" You know you will have to decide to do something. Perhaps you've stumbled onto this book for a good reason: inside is all you need to know to make the right decision. And it's not written by a surgeon, or a hospital, or a prosthesis company-or anyone else who will profit from your decision. It's written by a man, Dan Junot, a retired licensed mental health professional, and former clinical director for a hospital based urological clinic, who--himself--suffered seven years with severe hip pain before deciding to have total hip replacement surgery-not once, but twice (right and left hips). Dan wrote this short, easy to read text ... free of medical "big-words." What it is "big on" is truth. It is a realistic account of his actual experience-everything-both the good and the bad. Nothing is spared. What you need now is factual information to help you decide how to deal with your pain. Not sales tactics. Dan's account of his experiences are based upon his contemporaneous notes plus his own color illustrations of the surgical process, as well as a modestly depicted, photographic record of his incisions and healing. Armed with this knowledge, you will have the tools needed to make a sound decision as to whether or not total hip replacement surgery is for you. Don't kid yourself; don't think that you already know the answer, because you probably don't have enough factually based knowledge to make an informed decision, just yet. But, spend some time with this book, and you will learn the things that you will need to know to successfully plan your own future. Things that could determine whether your future ends up a painful or a pleasant one ... one with limited mobility or one with enhanced freedom of motion ... a future with a physically restricted lifestyle or one with almost no limitations. But, be sure to take time to consider your options now-before it's too late. If you wait ... your health could decline and treatment options along with it. Then you could be really stuck with hips that become progressively more painful and problematic. Let this journal be your personal guide, a handbook-if you will-to plotting a course of action towards eliminating your pain, taking back control of your life, and once again being able to enjoy simple, day-to-day, routine activities. All that you need to know to make the right decision, and rid yourself of that incessant pain, is an investment of a few hours reading. That sounds like a good deal-a mighty good deal! "I wish there had been something like this for me," says Dan. "But, there wasn't-so I wrote it. To help you! Now it's in your hands: the key to getting on with your future. Best Wishes!"

Download or read book My Journal for Anterior Hip Replacement written by Kathleen Smith and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-08-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My daily journal of hip pain and disability, which caused me to seek surgical intervention, guidance and post surgical recovery. Before surgery, I found either glowing or dismal reviews for hip replacement. I wanted to hear the stories of other hip replacement patients but found practically nothing. During my road to recovery, I recorded my daily exercises, problems, expectations and more. I hope this journal helps you decide what steps to take if you're considering hip replacement, how to find a doctor and what to expect during recovery. While everyone has a different experience based on several factors, these were MY experiences.
Download or read book Hip Hip Hooray written by Jerry Riemer and published by . This book was released on 2007-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wrote this book to let people who are living with chronic hip degeneration know there is a way to rid themselves from the pain. I call it a modern-day miracle, the hip replacement. This book takes the reader through the time leading up to the decision to have the surgery. It takes you through the surgery, and shows what the surgery actually entails. There is a diary of both stays in the hospital after my hip replacements. I tell you what to expect while convalescing, what financial burdens you need to think about, and finally, there is a complete section of exercises that I used to get back into shape for a new life. If I help just one person to decide to do this surgery, and he gets his life back, then this book will have served its purpose. Sincerely, Jerry Riemer

Download or read book Aging and Decision Making written by Thomas M. Hess and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2015-02-17 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decisions large and small play a fundamental role in shaping life course trajectories of health and well-being: decisions draw upon an individual's capacity for self-regulation and self-control, their ability to keep long-term goals in mind, and their willingness to place appropriate value on their future well-being. Aging and Decision Making addresses the specific cognitive and affective processes that account for age-related changes in decision making, targeting interventions to compensate for vulnerabilities and leverage strengths in the aging individual. This book focuses on four dominant approaches that characterize the current state of decision-making science and aging - neuroscience, behavioral mechanisms, competence models, and applied perspectives. Underscoring that choice is a ubiquitous component of everyday functioning, Aging and Decision Making examines the implications of how we invest our limited social, temporal, psychological, financial, and physical resources, and lays essential groundwork for the design of decision supportive interventions for adaptive aging that take into account individual capacities and context variables. Divided into four dominant approaches that characterize the current state of decision-making science and aging neuroscience Explores the impact of aging on the linkages between cortical structures/functions and the behavioral indices of decision-making Examines the themes associated with behavioral approaches that attempt integrations of methods, models, and theories of general decision-making with those derived from the study of aging Details the changes in underlying competencies in later life and the two prevailing themes that have emerged—one, the general individual differences perspective, and two, a more clinical focus

Download or read book Shared Decision Making in Health Care written by Glyn Elwyn and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-08-04 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade health care systems around the world have placed increasing importance on the relationship between patient choice and clinical decision-making. In the years since the publication of the second edition of Shared Decision Making in Health Care, there have been significant new developments in the field, most notably in the US where 'Obamacare' puts shared decision making (SDM) at the centre of the 2009 Affordable Care Act. This new edition explores shared decision making by examining, from practical and theoretical perspectives, what should comprise an effective decision-making process. It also looks at the benefits and potential difficulties that arise when patients and clinicians share health care decisions. Written by leading experts from around the world and utilizing high quality evidence, the book provides an up-to-date reference with real-word context to the topics discussed, and in-depth coverage of the practicalities of implementing and teaching SDM. The breadth of information in Shared Decision Making in Health Care makes it an essential resource for policy-makers and health care workers. As health care systems adapt to increasingly collaborative patient-clinician care frameworks, this will also prove a useful guide to SDM for clinicians of all disciplines.
