Download or read book Pourquoi des patients possiblement ambulatoires consultent aux urgences hospitali res written by Pascal Bergerot and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contexte : Comme partout en France, le service des urgences des Hospices de Beaune est confronté à une affluence croissante (+ 49% de passages en 15 ans), et cela malgré la création d'une maison médicale de garde. Objectifs: Comprendre les raisons amenant les patients à consulter préférentiellement aux urgences. Méthode: Enquête prospective au service des urgences des Hospices de Beaune, par questionnaire directif soumis à chaque patient, et n'incluant que les patients côtés CCMU 1 et 2. Résultats: Echantillon de 242 patients. 67% se présentent aux urgences sans avis médical préalable, recherchant une prise en charge complète en un lieu unique (81 %), et rapide (65%). En dehors de la permanence des soins, 31 % des patients n'ont pas pu être reçus par leur médecin traitant, et 19 % ne l'ont pas contacté, estimant que leur problème ne relevait pas de ses soins. Pendant la permanence des soins, un patient sur deux dit ne pas avoir connaissance de la maison médicale de garde, et parmi les patients se présentant spontanément, un sur cinq y est réadressé. Conclusion: L'amélioration de la prise en charge des patients "urgents" par leur médecin traitant (en réservant par exemple des créneaux spécifiques de consultation dans les cabinets), ainsi qu'une meilleure information des patients concernant l'organisation actuelle de la permanence des soins ambulatoires pourraient constituer des pistes d'amélioration du parcours de soins des patients en cas d'urgence ressentie.

Download or read book Orchestration Graphs written by Pierre Dillenbourg and published by Epfl Press. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By modeling pedagogical scenarios as directed geometrical graphs and proposing an associated modeling language, this book describes how rich learning activities, often designed for small classes, can be scaled up for use with thousands of participants. With the vertices of these graphs representing learning activities and the edges capturing the pedagogical relationship between activities, individual, team, and class-wide activities are integrated into a consistent whole. The workflow mechanisms modeled in the graphs enable the construction of scenarios that are richer than those currently implemented in MOOCs. The cognitive states of learners in two consecutive activities feed a transition matrix, which encapsulates the probability of succeeding in the second activity, based on success in the former. This transition matrix is summarized by a numerical value, which is used as the weight of the edge. This pedagogical framework is connected to stochastic models, with the goal of making learning analytics more appealing for data scientists. However, the proposed modeling language is not only useful in learning technologies, it also allows researchers in learning sciences to formally describe the structure of any lesson, from an elementary school lesson with 20 students to an online course with 20,000 participants.
Download or read book The Great Cholesterol Con written by Dr Malcolm Kendrick and published by Kings Road Publishing. This book was released on 2008-07-07 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Statins are widely prescribed to lower blood cholesterol levels and claim to offer unparalleled protection against heart disease. Believed to be completely safe and capable of preventing a whole series of other conditions, they are the most profitable drug in the history of medicine. In this groundbreaking book, GP Malcolm Kendrick exposes the truth behind the hype. He will change the way we think about cholesterol forever. Rubbishing the diet-heart hypothesis, in which clinical trials 'prove' that high cholesterol causes heart disease and a high-fat diet leads to heart disease, Kendrick lambastes a powerful pharmaceutical industry and unquestioning medical profession, who, he claims, perpetuate the madcap concepts of 'good' and 'bad' cholesterol and cholesterol levels to convince millions of people to unnecessarily spend billions of pounds on statins. Clearly and comprehensively debunking assumptions on what constitute a healthy lifestyle and diet, "The Great Cholesterol Con" is the accessible, indispensable and absorbing case against statins and for a more common-sense approach to heart disease and general wellbeing. No more over-hyped miracle drugs; no more garlic, red wine, anti-oxidants, fruit or vegetables; even a vegetarian diet is rejected in this controversial yet authoritative critique of how we have been mislead over how food and drugs affect our coronary health. Here, for the first time, is the invaluable guide for anyone who though there was a miracle cure for heart disease, "The Great Cholesterol Con" is a fascinating breakthrough that will set dynamite under the whole area.
Download or read book How Statin Drugs Really Lower Cholesterol and Kill You One Cell at a Time written by James B. Yoseph and published by Hannah Yoseph. This book was released on 2012 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Yosephs have written the most stunning expose. In plain language they reveal the science, the corruption and the enormous conspiracy it took to bring statins to market. As fast paced as a Mickey Spillane novel they report the research, the fraud and the facts like a detective in hot pursuit of a Nazi war criminal. It is riveting. They have accomplished the impossible: they have made both complex science and medical history fascinating to read. What could not be done in an expose they accomplished with almost unbelievablable ease. It will change your paradigms about medicine forever."--p.[4] of cover.
