Download or read book La r habilitation respiratoire des patients BPCO long terme written by Romain Abela and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La prise en charge du patient BPCO est actuellement un enjeu majeur de santé publique, ceci du fait de la fréquence de cette pathologie chronique, de sa prévalence en constante augmentation et de l'important coût de santé généré. Le traitement médicamenteux s'avère insuffisant. Ainsi, il est proposé des programmes de réhabilitation respiratoire qui apportent d'importants bénéfices, en améliorant la dyspnée, la tolérance à l'exercice, la qualité de vie et le recours aux soins. Mais aujourd'hui se pose la question du devenir des patients à la fin des programmes de réhabilitation menés dans les structures spécialisées. Il semble alors nécessaire de proposer des réhabilitations à long terme afin qu'un maximum de patients puisse poursuivre un programme d'éducation physique qui leur soit adapté pour leur permettre de maintenir leurs acquis, voire de les augmenter. Les programmes de maintien à long terme de réentraînement à l'effort sont recommandés par la SPLF. Il a été possible de créer en Haute-Vienne un club " Poumon et Santé ". Celui-ci permettra en partenariat avec la FFEPGV la mise en place d'un programme de réentraînement à l'effort au long cours, suite à une réhabilitation respiratoire. Dans un avenir proche, un autre club " Poumon et Santé " devrait être créé en Creuse, pour faire suite au réentraînement mis en œuvre dans la structure hospitalière de Sainte Feyre, et son programme de réhabilitation respiratoire hospitalière. Nous espérons aussi que d'autres départements en France utiliseront ces clubs. Le but dans l'avenir est de créer un réseau de réhabilitation respiratoire en région limousine, associant la prise en charge en centre, en ambulatoire, à domicile et au sein d'associations sportives et ludiques représentées par la FFEPGV. Ceci afin de permettre une prise en charge optimale des patients tout au long de leur maladie et de coordonner le travail des médecins généralistes, des pneumologues, des pharmaciens, des kinésithérapeutes de ville et de structure et des infirmières, qui devront tous être parties prenantes du réseau.

Book excerpt: Geosimulation is hailed as ‘the next big thing’ in geographic modelling for urban studies. This book presents readers with an overview of this new and innovative field by introducing the spatial modelling environment and describing the latest research and development using cellular automata and multi-agent systems. Extensive case studies and working code is available from an associated website which demonstrate the technicalities of geosimulation, and provide readers with the tools to carry out their own modelling and testing. The first book to treat urban geosimulation explicitly, integrating socio-economic and environmental modelling approaches Provides the reader with a sound theoretical base in the science of geosimulation as well as applied material on the construction of geosimulation models Cross-references to an author-maintained associated website with downloadable working code for readers to apply the models presented in the book Visit the Author's Website for further information on Geosimulation, Geographic Automata Systems and Geographic Automata Software http://www.geosimulationbook.com

Download or read book Simplexity written by Alain Berthoz and published by Odile Jacob. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Simplexity, as I understand it, is the range of solutions living organisms have found, despite the complexity of natural processes, to enable the brain to prepare an action and plan for the consequences of it. These solutions are simplifying principles that enable the processing of information or situations, by taking into account past experience and anticipating the future. They are neither caricatures, shortcuts, or summaries. They are new ways of asking questions, sometimes at the cost of occasional detours, in order to achieve faster, more elegant, more effective actions.” A. B. As Alain Berthoz demonstrates in this profoundly original book, simplicity is never easy; it requires suppressing, selecting, connecting, thinking, in order to then act in the best way possible. And what if we, in turn, are inspired by the living world to process the complexity that surrounds us? Alain Berthoz is professor at the Collège de France where he is co-director of the Laboratoire de physiologie de la perception et de l’action. [Laboratory for the physiology of perception and action]. He is a member of the French Academy of Sciences, and is the author of Le Sens du mouvement [The Brain's Sense of Movement] and La Décision [Emotion and Reason].

Download or read book Virtual Geographic Environments written by Hui Lin and published by ESRI Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virtual Geographic Environments, edited by Hui Lin and Michael Batty, collects key papers that define the current momentum in GIS and "virtual geographies." Contributions by leading members of the geospatial community to Virtual Geographic Environments illustrate the cutting edge of GIScience, as well as new applications of GIS with the processing and delivery of geographic information through the Web and handheld devices, forming two major directions to these developments. The four-part organization leads from a primer on VGEs to virtual cities and landscapes, interface design and public participation, and finally mobile and networked VGEs. Current topics, such as crowd sourcing and related services, point to the development of new business models that merge proprietary and nonproprietary systems.
