Quelles sont les possibilités d'action lorsque l'on ne dispose que de ses mains et de matériel domestique rudimentaire ? Loin du confort de travail du cadre hospitalier, quelles techniques peuvent être applicables par les professionnels de santé au-delà des simples gestes de secourisme ? Rédigé en termes simples et volontairement concis pour être adapté au " terrain ", ce guide est tout simplement la deuxième édition des 100 gestes de médecine d'urgence sans matériel. Il décrit les techniques utilisables pour la plupart des urgences médicales. Chaque chapitre comprend un mini-scénario permettant la mise en situation réelle, un code de difficulté et une description des actions possibles avec un matériel minimal. Illustration renouvelée, clarté avec un classement par les gestes utiles, cette deuxième édition sera utile pour les personnes susceptibles d'être confrontées à l'urgence loin de tout secours, notamment pour les grands voyageurs, les sportifs d'aventure, le personnel militaire opérationnel et les professions médicales privées de leur équipement spécialisé.

Il s'adresse à ceux qui se retrouvent loin de tout secours, seuls ou en groupe, dans des lieux isolés ou en pays étranger, et en particulier aux médecins se trouvant dépourvus de leur trousse face à une situation d'urgence. En effet, l'absence de matériel place le professionnel au même niveau que le particulier seule la connaissance des techniques décrites permettra de faire la différence sur le terrain. Un petit scénario en tête de chapitre permet de mettre directement le lecteur in situ.

Un deuxième paragraphe décrit les gestes à effectuer et un dernier souligne quelques remarques importantes. Richement illustré et volontairement concis, ce guide de poche très pratique devrait se révéler indispensable, à domicile comme en voyage.

Download or read book Urological Emergencies written by Hunter Wessells and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-12 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Urological Emergencies: A Practical Approach, Second Edition provides a concise, evidence based review of common urgent and emergent urological conditions in children and adults. Descriptions of the appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic considerations on topics of traumatic, infectious, obstructive, hemorrhagic, iatrogenic, vascular and congenital urological emergencies in adults and children are provided. The text is organized by pathophysiology rather than organ system, allowing the reader to develop approaches to the care of patients with acute urological conditions based on mechanism of disease. Relevant pathophysiological background and epidemiology are reviewed, necessary diagnostic testing recommended, and detailed medical, surgical and endourological management approaches have been provided. All chapters incorporate published guidelines and best practice recommendations from appropriate organizations including the American Urological Association, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and various International Consultations on Urological Diseases. New or significantly revised chapters in each of the subsections address innovations in trauma care and prevention, new strategies in management of kidney stones, and special care needs of children with acute urological problems. Urological Emergencies: A Practical Approach, Second Edition is of great value to practicing urologists, urology residents, emergency medicine trainees and practitioners, and primary care providers including MD’s, PA’s, and NP’s without immediate access to urological consultation.
Download or read book Emergency Triage written by Advanced Life Support Group (ALSG) and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-09-08 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emergency Triage: Telephone Triage and Advice complements the highly successful Emergency Triage. The algorithms are rooted in the Manchester Triage System (MTS), which is used in hospitals around the world and which is acknowledged as an effective means of clinical prioritisation. This telephone iteration of a triage system which prioritises millions of patients each year provides a robust, safe, evidence-based system for managing the clinical risk in patients who are at a distance from health care providers. The basic principles that drive the MTS remain, but this book addresses the specific difficulties of assessment by telephone. The possible triage outcomes are "face-to-face now", "face-to-face soon" and "face-to-face later" together with a self-care option. Information and advice is suggested at every level. The advice ranges from life-saving interventions, which can be carried out until health care arrives, to self-care instructions. Emergency Triage: Telephone Triage and Advice provides all the necessary information that telephone triage staff must have to hand as well as including examples of questions to be asked. It will be a valuable resource for staff working in emergency departments, health centres and telephone triage organisations. Furthermore hospitals that are already using Emergency Triage will benefit from being linked with a telephone triage system that follows the same protocols. Updated to Version 1.7 in 2023.

Book excerpt: Given its characteristics and the complexity of its use and its environment, the helicopter is exposed to damage and a whole series of measures can be previewed to alientate this risk. The presentations concentrated on five main topics: 1. Crew training; 2. The different conditions of use; 3. The psycho-physiological component; 4. Survival equipment and methods; and 5. Accidents and their prevention. A careful reading of the papers presented at the symposium will enable both specialists and decision-makers to make a summary assessment of the constraints of the missions on the one hand, and on the other, of the new methods of protection and training and the new technologies which will enable aircrew to carry out their missions in a safer environment. In addition, they will perhaps discover that helicopter operation can be optimised by a series of different devices and above all by judicious matching of "type of helicopter-type of aircrew training-type of additional on-board equipment".

Download or read book Sickle Cell Pain written by Samir K. Ballas and published by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 1004 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sickle Cell Pain is a panoramic, in-depth exploration of every scientific, human, and social dimension of this cruel disease. This comprehensive, definitive work is unique in that it is the only book devoted to sickle cell pain, as opposed to general aspects of the disease. The 752-page book links sickle cell pain to basic, clinical, and translational research, addressing various aspects of sickle pain from molecular biology to the psychosocial aspects of the disease. Supplemented with patient narratives, case studies, and visual art, Sickle Cell Pain’s scientific rigor extends through its discussion of analgesic pharmacology, including abuse-deterrent formulations. The book also addresses in great detail inequities in access to care, stereotyping and stigmatization of patients, the implications of rapidly evolving models of care, and recent legislation and litigation and their consequences.
