Download or read book Interventions in Infectious Disease Emergencies an Issue of Medical Clinics written by Nancy Khardori and published by Saunders. This book was released on 2012-10-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Preface: The most significant aspect of infectious diseases is that a majority of serious emergencies are curable if diagnosed early and managed appropriately rather than just treatable, contrary to most other emergent disease processes. Unfortunately, serious infectious disease manifestations are often not seen by patients, families, and health care providers in the same light as other emergencies. Delay in seeking medical attention and recognizing the urgency for intervention often result in a worse prognosis. Like other medical emergencies, the initial encounter for infectious disease emergencies is in the emergency department or outpatient setting. Noninfectious disease physicians, particularly general internists, are often the front-line providers for diagnostic workup and initial management. The reader should keep that in mind, as the first article in this issue has been compiled by 5 of my general internal medicine colleagues. Each section starts with a case vignette and is followed by articulation of questions about diagnosis and management at the very outset. They have very skillfully abstracted a few clinical pearls for each of the serious clinical presentations in their respective sections. The next 10 articles review in detail epidemiology, microbiology, clinical presentations, diagnostic workup, and management, including presumptive and definitive antimicrobial therapy for infectious disease emergencies involving various organ systems. They include articles on the role of molecular diagnosis and pharmacotherapy of infectious disease emergencies.

Growing forces for globalization have increased the interconnectedness of the world and our interdependency on other countries, economies, and cultures.

Global Health and the Future Role of the United States identifies global health priorities in light of current and emerging world threats. This report assesses the current global health landscape and how challenges, actions, and players have evolved over the last decade across a wide range of issues, and provides recommendations on how to increase responsiveness, coordination, and efficiency â€" both within the U.S. government and across the global health field.
