Download or read book Douleurs thoraciques en urgence written by Jean-Louis Ducassé and published by Elsevier Masson. This book was released on 2005 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Par le retentissement sur la qualité de vie du patient et son étiologie multiple, la douleur thoracique est une cause majeure de consultation en soins d'urgences. De diagnostic parfois simple quand il s'agit de traumatismes qui font suite à un accident, elle peut également être la symptomatologie révélatrice de pathologies graves. Cette monographie fait le point sur l'épidémiologie, la physiopathologie, la clinique et l'usage de l'imagerie aux urgences sur ces symptômes douloureux. Les auteurs considèrent également les situations fréquemment rencontrées aux urgences (coronaropathie, embolie pulmonaire, pneumothorax, douleur d'origine digestive, etc.) en donnant la prise en charge la plus efficace pour chaque situation et la stratégie thérapeutique à mettre en place. Ces derniers développements sont traités de façon très didactique, reprenant pour chaque pathologie, les premiers gestes, les stratégies des examens complémentaires et les interventions des spécialistes. Les auteurs - urgentistes, pneumologues, psychologues, cardiologues, radiologues et pédiatres - font de cet ouvrage un outil dont la transdisciplinarité est le reflet de la pratique quotidienne du personnel des services d'urgence. Ainsi, les praticiens et les soignants des structures d'urgence trouveront dans cette monographie une aide précieuse en matière de stratégie de prise en charge des douleurs thoraciques.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses all important aspects of emergency medicine in older people, identifying the particular care needs of this population, which all too often remain unmet. The up-to-date and in-depth coverage will assist emergency physicians in identifying patients at risk for adverse outcomes, in conducting appropriate assessment,and in providing timely and adequate care. Particular attention is paid to the commonpitfalls in emergency management andmeans of avoiding them. Between 1980 and 2013, the number of older patients in emergency departmentsworldwide doubled. Compared with younger patients, older people suffer from more comorbidities, a higher mortality rate, require more complex assessment and diagnostic testing, and tend to stay longer in the emergency department. This book, written by internationally recognized experts in emergency medicine and geriatrics, not only presents the state of the art in the care of this population but also underlines the increasing need for adequate training and development in the field.

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.
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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le Dr Fidèle Ngo Njom Binam nous offre un très intéressant ouvrage sur la prise en charge des urgences médicales individuelles et collectives dans les pays en voie de développement. Il s’agit d’une approche totalement originale de ce sujet d’importance capitale, véritable problème de santé publique. L’ouvrage a le mérite de proposer une approche inhabituelle mais combien capitale : la prise en charge des mêmes urgences et des mêmes malades dans des pays où l’accès aux soins est beaucoup plus difficile et où la prise en charge hospitalière a des limites en personnel et en moyens techniques, imposées par les conditions d’environnement et par de nombreuses contraintes budgétaires. Dans de telles circonstances, il faut trouver un difficile équilibre entre les moyens que l’on peut mobiliser en personnel, en matériel et en techniques de soins et ce que l’on trouve à disposition, qui n’est jamais aussi adapté qu’on le voudrait. Le médecin urgentiste, l’anesthésiste-réanimateur ou le chirurgien ne peuvent s’extraire des contraintes de l’environnement où ils travaillent. Leur stratégie de prise en charge doit être économe des deniers publics mais efficace pour le patient. On se trouve face à une double obligation : la première est relative au patient qui se confie en urgence à un médecin : il attend de lui qu’il lui donne le meilleur traitement possible ; la deuxième obligation concerne la communauté des patients à venir : il faut conserver des moyens pour qu’ils puissent eux aussi bénéficier de la meilleure prise en charge possible, sans dépenser pour quelques-uns seulement ce qui devrait profiter à beaucoup. Le présent ouvrage sera le parfait compagnon pour tout professionnel de santé qui doit prendre en charge en urgence des patients dans des pays aux ressources financières limitées. Professeur Claude Martin, anesthésiste-réanimateur, Marseille (France)Fidèle Ngo Njom Binam Bikoi est agrégée des Facultés de médecine et professeur titulaire d’anesthésie-réanimation à la Faculté de médecine et de sciences biomédicales de l’Université de Yaoundé 1 au Cameroun. Elle a publié en 2011 aux mêmes éditions Les premiers secours en milieu africain.
Download or read book Philosophy in a Time of Terror written by Giovanna Borradori and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for Philosophy in a Time of Terror was born hours after the attacks on 9/11 and was realized just weeks later when Giovanna Borradori sat down with Jürgen Habermas and Jacques Derrida in New York City, in separate interviews, to evaluate the significance of the most destructive terrorist act ever perpetrated. This book marks an unprecedented encounter between two of the most influential thinkers of our age as here, for the first time, Habermas and Derrida overcome their mutual antagonism and agree to appear side by side. As the two philosophers disassemble and reassemble what we think we know about terrorism, they break from the familiar social and political rhetoric increasingly polarized between good and evil. In this process, we watch two of the greatest intellects of the century at work.
Download or read book War Surgery 1914 18 written by Steven Heys and published by Helion. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A fascinating study of war surgery in World War I, where huge medical developments were made and the foundations of modern war surgery were laid World War I resulted in an enormous number of casualties who had sustained filthy contaminated wounds from high explosive shellfire, bomb and mortar blast, and from rifle and machine gun bullets. Such wounds were frequently multiple and severe, and almost invariably became infected. Surgical experience from previous conflicts was of little value, and it became quickly apparent that early surgical intervention with radical removal of all dead and revitalised tissue was absolutely vital to help reduce the chances of infections, especially the lethal gas gangrene, from developing. War Surgery 1914-18 explains how medical services responded to deal with the casualties. It discusses the evacuation pathway, and explains how facilities, particularly casualty clearing stations, evolved to cope with major, multiple wounds to help reduce mortality. There are chapters dealing with the advances made in anaesthesia, resuscitation and blood transfusion, the pathology and microbiology of wounding and diagnostic radiology. There are also chapters dealing with the development of orthopaedic surgery, both on the Western Front and in the United Kingdom, the treatment of abdominal wounds, chest wounds, wounds of the skull and brain, and the development of plastic and reconstructive surgery for those with terribly mutilating facial wounds. War Surgery 1914-18 contributes greatly to our understanding of the surgery of warfare. Surgeons working in Casualty Clearing Stations during the years 1914-1918 laid the foundations for modern war surgery as practised today in Afghanistan and elsewhere."--Publisher.

Gender really does matter, to women, to men, to young people - to all of us. This manual serves to explore these human rights issues and act upon them."--Book jacket.
