Download or read book The Patient Will See You Now written by Eric Topol and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essential guide by one of America's leading doctors to how digital technology enables all of us to take charge of our health A trip to the doctor is almost a guarantee of misery. You'll make an appointment months in advance. You'll probably wait for several hours until you hear "the doctor will see you now"-but only for fifteen minutes! Then you'll wait even longer for lab tests, the results of which you'll likely never see, unless they indicate further (and more invasive) tests, most of which will probably prove unnecessary (much like physicals themselves). And your bill will be astronomical. In The Patient Will See You Now, Eric Topol, one of the nation's top physicians, shows why medicine does not have to be that way. Instead, you could use your smartphone to get rapid test results from one drop of blood, monitor your vital signs both day and night, and use an artificially intelligent algorithm to receive a diagnosis without having to see a doctor, all at a small fraction of the cost imposed by our modern healthcare system. The change is powered by what Topol calls medicine's "Gutenberg moment." Much as the printing press took learning out of the hands of a priestly class, the mobile internet is doing the same for medicine, giving us unprecedented control over our healthcare. With smartphones in hand, we are no longer beholden to an impersonal and paternalistic system in which "doctor knows best." Medicine has been digitized, Topol argues; now it will be democratized. Computers will replace physicians for many diagnostic tasks, citizen science will give rise to citizen medicine, and enormous data sets will give us new means to attack conditions that have long been incurable. Massive, open, online medicine, where diagnostics are done by Facebook-like comparisons of medical profiles, will enable real-time, real-world research on massive populations. There's no doubt the path forward will be complicated: the medical establishment will resist these changes, and digitized medicine inevitably raises serious issues surrounding privacy. Nevertheless, the result-better, cheaper, and more human health care-will be worth it. Provocative and engrossing, The Patient Will See You Now is essential reading for anyone who thinks they deserve better health care. That is, for all of us.

Download or read book Prise en charge pharmaceutique des patients canc reux written by Brigitte Bonan and published by John Libbey Eurotext. This book was released on 2008 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les liens entre pharmaciens et médecins, hospitaliers ou libéraux, doivent se renforcer afin d'optimiser la prise en charge des patients cancéreux, réalisée largement "en dehors des murs de l'hôpital". Il est en effet nécessaire de construire l'interface ville-hôpital et de mobiliser et former les acteurs de "ville". Le progrès majeur porté par le Plan cancer a été de placer réellement le patient au coeur du dispositif et d'articuler les différentes actions en matière d'accès aux traitements et de prise en charge autour des trois principes fondamentaux: l'information du patient et son libre choix, la qualité et la sécurité des soins, une prise en charge pluridisciplinaire globale et continue. Après avoir précisé les rôles des pharmaciens hospitaliers et officinaux dans la prise en charge des patients atteints de cancer, l'ouvrage présente la sécurisation du circuit des chimiothérapies au sein des établissements hospitaliers ainsi qu'à travers l'hospitalisation à domicile. Puis, l'exemple d'un réseau régional de cancérologie est analysé avec sa mise en place, son organisation et la définition de ses missions. Les rôles et implications attendus des pharmaciens hospitaliers et officinaux dans ces réseaux ville-hôpital indiquent la nécessité d'une collaboration étroite. Les auteurs insistent enfin sur la spécificité des traitements antitumoraux par voie orale ainsi que sur les soins de support en oncologie, qui nécessitent un accompagnement et une compétence pharmaceutiques auprès des patients afin d'assurer une continuité de la qualité de leur prise en charge. Cet ouvrage, coordonné par Brigitte Bonan pharmacienne à l'hôpital européen Georges Pompidou de Paris, s'adresse à l'ensemble des pharmaciens officinaux et hospitaliers, mais aussi aux responsables des réseaux de cancérologie ou de structures d'hospitalisation à domicile.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce manuscrit se focalise sur le rôle du pharmacien d'officine dans la prise en charge des escarres. Il aborde l'importance des escarres comme enjeu de santé publique, particulièrement chez les personnes âgées et alitées. La thèse explique la physiopathologie des escarres, identifie les facteurs de risque, et discute de l'impact significatif de cette pathologie sur la qualité de vie des patients ainsi que sur le système de soins. L'approche préventive, qui est essentielle pour limiter la survenue des escarres, est détaillée en présentant les méthodes d'évaluation des risques, de surveillance de l'évolution des escarres, et les bonnes pratiques en matière de soins et d'utilisation des supports appropriés. La thèse souligne le rôle crucial du pharmacien dans l'éducation thérapeutique des patients et de leur entourage, la délivrance de matériel médical, et le choix des pansements adaptés. Elle explore également les divers traitements disponibles en fonction des différents stades de l'escarre, mettant en avant les pansements et autres dispositifs médicaux disponibles. En parallèle, elle argumente les aspects économiques liés à la prise en charge des escarres, soulignant l'importance de la prévention pour réduire les coûts. Cette thèse sert de guide pour les pharmaciens, enrichissant leur rôle consultatif et thérapeutique dans la gestion des escarres, un aspect souvent sous-estimé de leur profession en milieu communautaire.

Download or read book Unidentified written by Robert Salas and published by Career Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1969 the U.S. Air Force issued a statement that read' "No UFO reported, investigated and evaluated by the Air Force was ever an indication of threat to our national security." This statement is patently false. It has been proven untrue by the testimony of many military officers and airmen and documentation of incidents involving UFOs and nuclear weapons, testimonies of which the U.S. Air Force was fully aware. Unidentified details many of these testimonies, some for the first time. As partial justification for its position, the Air Force cites a University of Colorado study that was contracted and paid for by federal funds. Unidentified reveals how this study was actually just another part of the plan to cover up the reality of the UFO phenomenon. For the first time, Unidentified publishes evidence that the investigators for the Colorado study knew about the UFO-related missile shutdown incidents but did not investigate them or include them in their final report.

Book excerpt: An Apollo 11 astronaut and the Nebula Award–nominated author of Directive 51 present a novel that “conveys the wonder and promise of space” (Publishers Weekly). Born the year of the Moon landing, Chris Terence spends his life fighting to return humanity to that pinnacle. An engineering student with dreams of spaceflight, he finds upon graduation that the United States no longer has need for astronauts. Years of bureaucratic meddling have reduced the space program to a shell of itself, and it will take the greatest scientific find in history to send humanity skyward once more. After years battling budget hawks, Chris finally gets his chance to walk on the Moon. While there, he finds evidence of an ancient alien civilization, the Tiberians, who visited Earth’s satellite eight thousand years before. Understanding what happened to those long-forgotten travelers will define the lives of Chris and his son, as they fight against all odds to unlock the secrets of the universe. “The collaboration of the first man to pilot a moon lander (Aldrin) with a major voice in contemporary science fiction (Barnes) has produced a fascinating chronicle of man’s first encounter with alien intelligence” (Booklist).

Download or read book Le r le du pharmacien dans la prise en charge et pr vention des infections urinaires simples l officine written by Oussama Fayoumi and published by . This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Au cours de cette exercice, nous avons étudié l'importance du pharmacien dans la prise en charge et la prévention des infections urinaires à l'officine. Après avoir établi un rappel anatomique sur l'arbre urinaire, nous avons étudié le mode de contamination. La bactérie la plus souvent incriminée est E. Coli. Quand le corps n'a pas eu la capacité d'éliminer le pathogène grâce à ses mécanismes de défense, il faudra avoir recours à l'antibiothérapie. Son rôle est d'accompagner la patiente, d'assurer la délivrance de l'antibiotique, s'assurer de sa compatibilité, prendre en compte les pathologies sous-jacentes et informer des effets indésirables potentiels. Le pharmacien dispose de compléments alimentaires utilisés dans la prise en charge et la prophylaxie. De nouveaux outils sont en cours d'étude pour une prise en charge optimale et notamment pour limiter le recours aux antibiotiques. La profession évoluant et se diversifiant, le pharmacien est de plus en plus sollicité aux nouvelles missions. En atteste la crise sanitaire du COVID-19, notamment face à la désertification du milieu médical et le manque de médecins. Le pharmacien a désormais un rôle important dans la prise en charge des IUs à l'officine. Grâce aux nouvelles missions, les patientes pourront se rendre directement en pharmacie pour être prises en charge. Le pharmacien pourra, après avoir suivi une formation, prendre en charge la patiente au sein de la pharmacie. A l'heure actuelle, il peut délivrer l'antibiotique adapté uniquement en cas de travail coordonné avec un médecin au sein d'un structure de santé. Cependant, d'ici peu, il pourra prescrire et délivrer l'antibiotique lui-même au sein de l'officine.
