Download or read book V cu des patients en fibrillation auriculaire sous anticoagulants oraux written by Béatrix Bonnamour and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction : Les anticoagulants oraux directs (AOD) ont démontré leur non-infériorité par rapport aux antivitamines K (AVK) dans la prévention des accidents vasculaires cérébraux (AVC) chez les patients en fibrillation auriculaire (FA). Ils sont potentiellement moins contraignants que les AVK et devraient améliorer le vécu des patients. Aucune étude ne s'est intéressée à ce jour, en France, au vécu des patients anticoagulés pour une FA en ambulatoire. Méthodes : Étude épidémiologique observationnelle et descriptive "en vie réelle", ayant évaluée par 3 questionnaires validés (EQ-5D, PACT-Q2 et MMAS 8) la qualité de vie, la satisfaction et l'observance rapportées par 200 patients suivis en ambulatoire pour une FA, anticoagulés par AVK ou AOD depuis au moins trois mois. Les patients étaient répartis en 4 groupes: AVK, switchés AVK vers AOD (S-AOD), nouvellement sous AOD (N-AOD) et switchés AOD vers AVK (S-AVK). Résultats : Au total 200 patients ont répondu aux questionnaires : respectivement 89, 50, 52 et 9 dans les groupes AVK, S-AOD, N-AOD et S-AVK. Seuls les 3 premiers groupes ont été comparés en raison du faible effectif S-AVK. La qualité de vie (QDV) et la satisfaction du traitement étaient bonnes dans les 3 groupes sans différence significative de QDV, mais avec une satisfaction du traitement significativement meilleure sous AOD que sous AVK, dans la dimension « commodité » (S-AOD et N-AOD vs AVK, p

Book excerpt: The scope is not simply labor and delivery, but integrated management of patient care in labor and delivery units as they are utilized today. Thirty-four contributed chapters give an overview, followed by discussion of normal labor and delivery management (induction, multiple gestations, malpresentations); labor and delivery as an intensive care unit (tocolysis, preterm labor, asthma, sickle cell disease); controversies (e.g. electronic fetal monitoring, delivery of the very-low-birth-weight infant); and social obstetrics (e.g. medicolegal issues, conflicts between maternal and fetal well-being, perinatal loss).

Download or read book Classification Manual for Voice Disorders I written by Katherine Verdolini and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-04-08 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To date, there are 300 disorders associated with voice, but until now there has never been a published reference manual that classifies these disorders. Borrowing from the successful organization schema of the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic Statistical Manual (DSM), the Classification Manual for Voice Disorders-I provides the framework for classifying voice disorders using the following criteria for each disorder: essential and associated features; vocal impairment; clinical history and demographic profile; course and complications; medical and voice differential diagnosis; and severity criteria. Classification Manual for Voice Disorders-I is a project of ASHA’s Special Interest Division 3, Voice and Voice Disorders (DIV 3), originally directed by contributing authors Moya Andrews, Diane Bless, Daniel Boone, Janina Casper, Leslie Glaze, Mike Karnell, Christy Ludlow, and Joe Stemple. The text was edited over a period of several years by the authoritative group of voice disorders professionals, including Katherine Verdolini, Clark Rosen, and Ryan Branski. This version represents the fields of speech-language pathology, voice science, and otolaryngology. CMVD-I lists most conditions that may negatively affect the ability to produce voice, based on the most current knowledge. These conditions comprise 30 structural pathologies, 25 neurological disorders, 20 aerodigestive conditions, 13 psychological disturbances, 15 systemic diseases, four inflammatory processes, four traumatic conditions, and five miscellaneous voice disorders. CMVD-I is a must-have resource for professionals who specialize in voice disorders, especially speech-language pathologists and otolaryngologists. The handy organization of this reference makes it a convenient and accessible resource for voice coaches and teachers of singing. It will also be invaluable as a textbook in master’s-level communication sciences programs throughout the world. Proceeds received by Division 3 will be used to support the mission of Special Interest Division 3, which provides continuing education and networking opportunities to promote leadership and advocacy for voice issues from professional, clinical, educational, and scientific perspectives.
