This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on the proceedings of the fourth Medical Microcomputer Workshop held at the Middlesex Hospital Medical School on 3-5 September 1986. The workshop was attended by clinicians and computer scientists with an interest in applying computer technology to current medical practice. The problems ranged from audit and patient management through to the more complex applications of data analysis obtained from current diagnos tic techniques. The choice of microcomputers has never been greater with low cost making them readily available. A single microcomputer has limita tions in clinical practice and the use of networks for multi-user tasks has expanded its capability but increased the complexity both in terms of hardware and the software needed to run it. Although comprehensive commercial packages are available, none of these are entirely suitable for medical applications without modification. Many of the chapters presented in this book describe the problems encountered and the solutions achieved by configuring and modifying applications software.
Download or read book Medical Applications of Microcomputers written by Philip D. Coleridge-Smith and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical Applications of Microcomputers deals with microcomputer applications in a wide area of clinical medicine. Recent developments are discussed in several clinical specialties including medicine, surgery, urology, anaesthesia and oncology. Topics include the storage of analysis of clinical audit data, the display of processing of data from direct physiological measurements and computers in control of therapy. The authors draw on their practical experience and knowledge of specific areas to which they have applied modern microcomputer techniques and give detailed descriptions of the means by which the problems that may be encountered may be overcome. Those wishing to implement their own computer systems will find this book a useful further source of ideas and techniques which add to those described in the earlier volume "Microcomputers in Medicine" by the same editors.

Download or read book Cognitive Retraining Using Microcomputers written by Veronica A. Bradley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-03 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1993, the previous decade had seen considerable development in the field of neuropsychological rehabilitation following brain damage, and the use of computerized methods attracted attention and stimulated controversy. This practically-oriented text reviews representative examples from the literature at the time relating to the training of cognitive systems with the emphasis on studies describing the use of computerized methods. The topic is discussed in context and the contents include sections on cognitive change in neurological disorders, assessment techniques, the interaction between cognition and behaviour and the advantages and disadvantages of the use of microcomputers. The authors describe the evaluation of a computerized cognitive retraining programme run at the Regional Neurological Centre in Newcastle-upon-Tyne and draw on their experience of running such programmes to give practical guidance to those wishing to set up cognitive retraining programmes.

Book excerpt: Abstract This volume of Innovations in clinical practice: A 21st century sourcebook is organized into five sections that reflect the diversity of contributions to the series. The first section, Clinical Issues and Applications, deals primarily with therapeutic concerns. The various contributions, however, go beyond traditional therapeutic issues and also address important questions of assessment, as well as treatment. Issues that relate to a number of different types of clients and situations are covered. The second section addresses Practice Management and Professional Development. This section is included because of the increasing number of clinicians who work independently and require a source of information on practice management, ethical concerns, and professional development issues. We remain in a period of dramatic changes that affect the nature of our practices. New risks as well as opportunities are constantly emerging in this era of health care reform. In this section, we try to address relevant issues that we believe will be of interest to our readers. Some of our discussions here also should be of interest to students and clinicians who practice in organizations or agencies. The third section includes Assessment Instruments and Client Handouts. The assessment instruments are primarily informal and designed to assist clinicians in collecting information about clients. Our goal is to publish screening instruments and forms that aid in the organization of data rather than the making of formal inferences. There are some exceptions to this rule; however, we believe all fall within the bounds of accepted professional practice in the format in which they are presented. The materials presented here should be useful to psychologists and other professionals, with minimal potential for misuse. We assume that readers will be thoroughly familiar with any disorders or processes that they attempt to evaluate, and readers are advised to carefully review the introductory materials that accompany contributions to this section. We also have included in this section two handouts for use with your clients. The fourth section on Community Interventions reflects our view that mental health practitioners have much to offer in the community beyond traditional clinical services. We trust that the material in this section will be of assistance to those who are interested in mental health consultation, education, prevention, and expanding their services to reach new and broader populations. The fifth section, Selected Topics, includes a variety of contributions that do not fit neatly into one of the other sections. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2019 APA, all rights reserved).

Download or read book Use and Impact of Computers in Clinical Medicine written by James G. Anderson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer technology has impacted the practice of medicine in dramatic ways. Imaging techniques provide noninvasive tools which alter the diag nostic process. Sophisticated monitoring equipment presents new levels of detail for both patient management and research. In most of these high technology applications, the computer is embedded in the device; its presence is transparent to the user. There is also a growing number of applications in which the health care provider directly interacts with a computer. In many cases, these applica tions are limited to administrative functions, e.g., office practice manage ment, location of hospital patients, appointments, and scheduling. Nev ertheless, there also are instances of patient care functions such as results reporting, decision support, surveillance, and reminders. This series, Computers and Medicine, focuses upon the direct use of information systems as it relates to the medical community. After twenty five years of experimentation and experience, there are many tested ap plications which can be implemented economically using the current gen eration of computers. Moreover, the falling cost of computers suggests that there will be even more extensive use in the near future. Yet there is a gap between current practice and the state-of-the-art.
