Download or read book Rationing Health Care written by André den Exter and published by Maklu. This book was released on 2012 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Medical need' is a factor in health care access decision-making, but merit-considerations are becoming important too. In the shortening of waiting time, priority arrangements are considered and/or introduced, based on non-medical criteria. Simultaneously, in terms of financing, health status has become important due to payment arrangements, limited insurance package options, etc. At the same time, health status disparities, due to socioeconomic inequalities, seem to be increasing. Under these circumstances, confronted with increased health spending, it is expected that rationing will become more eminent. Due to this, the emerging relevant questions are: Who will be responsible for rationing (the market, governments, bureaucrats, physicians, or others)? * How does it function (explicit or implicit)? * What are relevant and acceptable selection criteria (QUALYs, DALYs, health status, sex, age, etc.)? * To what extent is current rationing just? * What can be done to make it more just? *

Download or read book Unparalyzed written by Danielle M Bryan and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2024-01-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unparalyzed is a deeply personal memoir about grit. It is about refusal to give up. To allow adversity and difficult circumstances to win. But victory is one of its lessons too. It is the book that the late Toni Morrison inspired me to write. The book I wanted to read so I could see myself in another woman whose experiences were like my own. A 30-something divorced, professional woman of color with an invisible and incurable chronic illness and insatiable determination. To accompany similarly situated women as they stumble along the paths of their own journeys and to live the type of big colorful life that her son will be proud of and inspired by. It was a book that was not yet written and so, I wrote it.

Download or read book Neurobiology of Cerebrospinal Fluid 1 written by James H. Wood and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 771 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physiologic compartmentalization effectively isolates the central nervous system from the rest of the body. This isolation not only provides protection of its delicate function from aberrant peripheral influences but also impedes its diagnostic evaluation. Cerebro spinal fluid (CSF) bathes the brain and spinal cord, is in dynamic equilibrium with its extracellular fluid, and tends to reflect the state of health and activity of the central nervous system. CSF examination is the most direct and popular method of assessing the central chemical and cellular environment in the living patient or mammal. The purpose of this multidisciplined reference text is to provide the sophisticated knowledge of CSF physiology and pathology necessary for the meaningful interpretation of data obtained by various types of CSF analysis. The methodology for reliable CSF collection, storage, preparation, and analysis is discussed with respect to individual, somatotropic, chronologic, endorcinologic, pharmacologic, and possible artifactual var iations in CSF composition. These essential aspects, which ensure the validity of CSF data, are presented to aid the investigator in clinical and experimental protocol formu lation and in elimination of possible sources of error.

Book excerpt: Neuroanesthesia contains the edited presentations of the 42nd Annual Postgraduate Course in Anesthesiology given by the Department of Anesthesiology at the University of Utah School of Medicine, February 1997. The chapters reflect recent advances in neurophysiology, pharmacology and monitoring related to the practice of neuroanesthesiology. The sections on central nervous system trauma, intraoperative management, brain protection and postoperative care provide a conceptual framework for current clinical practices. This textbook is the fifteenth in a continuing series documenting the proceedings of the Postgraduate Course of the Department of Anesthesiology of the University of Utah School of Medicine. It reflects, as well as past and future volumes, the rapid and continuing evolution of anesthesia in the last years of the twentieth century.

Download or read book Epilepsy written by David W. McCandless and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-02 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume is intended to be a synopsis of seizure disorders with a goal of describing key studies in animals and humans. The translation of pertinent findings from animal studies to human studies, and to potential human studies will be emphasized. Specific cogent animal studies/results which deserve exploration in human seizure disorders will be detailed. The current rate of translation is estimated to be from 7‐9 years, and the “success” rate of translation was very recently listed as less than one half. The success rate is defined as results in human studies which were predicted in advance by animal studies. Both the time between animal and human attempts plus the success rate need improvement.

This book was released on 2014-12-11 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Because of its direct clinical applications, this is a good purchase for any neurological and neurosurgical library.” – Doody’s Reviews “I would certainly recommend [this book] to any technologist who monitors in the operating room.” – American Journal of Electroneurodiagnostic Technology This is a fundamental resource for physicians, technologists, and other health professionals who need to acquire state-of-the-art skills in neurophysiologic intraoperative monitoring (NIOM). It covers basic aspects of monitoring, describes the clinical and technical requirements for monitoring specific types of surgeries, and addresses the administrative aspects of running an NIOM service. The second edition has been updated to incorporate the vast amount of new information and techniques that have evolved since the publication of the first edition. This includes expanded coverage of each of the modalities used in monitoring (SEP, MEP, BAEP, EEG, and EMG) which are now discussed in individual chapters, training curriculum for neurophysiologists and technologists, policies and procedures for NIOM labs, and accreditation and certification. New applications and clinical innovations are interwoven throughout, and there is a completely new chapter on the use of NIOM in movement disorders surgery. Of value to practitioners at any level of experience, the book is now divided into three sections. The first section, Basic Principles, introduces the reader to the operating room environment, anesthetic considerations, and the various monitoring modalities. The second section, Clinical Methods, reviews the use of NIOM in specific types of surgeries. Many of these chapters are co-written by a neurophysiologist and technologist and present an overview of the particular surgery, relevant anatomy, monitoring modalities, data interpretation, warning criteria and technical considerations. A unique third section, Administrative Issues, has been added to this edition to address technical aspects of NIOM machines, remote monitoring, billing, ethical and legal issues, and training requirements for physicians and technologists. The final two chapters are devoted to setting up and maintaining an NIOM service and include sample policies and procedures. Key Features: Provides a wealth of current information on NIOM for day-to-day case management Covers all modalities and practical applications of NIOM for specific surgeries Contains detailed information on training, setup, billing, equipment, lab protocols, and running a service Appeals to NIOM providers at every level Combines the perspectives of physicians and technologists who together author surgical chapters
