Download or read book WHO Global Report on Traditional and Complementary Medicine 2019 written by World Health Organization and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2019-05-16 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is structured in five parts: national framework for traditional and complementary medicine (T&CM); product regulation; practices and practitioners; the challenges faced by countries; and finally the country profiles. Apart from the section on practices and practitioners the report is consistent with the format of the report of the first global survey in order to provide a useful comparison. The section on practices and practitioners which covers providers education and health insurance is a new section incorporated to reflect the emerging trends in T&CM and to gather new information regarding these topics at a national level. All new information received has been incorporated into individual country profiles and data graphs. The report captures the three phases of progress made by Member States; that is before and after the first WHO Traditional Medicine Strategy (1999?2005) from the first global survey to the second global survey (2005?2012) and from the second survey to the most recent timeline (2012?2018).
Download or read book Marihuana written by E.L. Abel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the plants men have ever grown, none has been praised and denounced as often as marihuana (Cannabis sativa). Throughout the ages, marihuana has been extolled as one of man's greatest benefactors and cursed as one of his greatest scourges. Marihuana is undoubtedly a herb that has been many things to many people. Armies and navies have used it to make war, men and women to make love. Hunters and fishermen have snared the most ferocious creatures, from the tiger to the shark, in its herculean weave. Fashion designers have dressed the most elegant women in its supple knit. Hangmen have snapped the necks of thieves and murderers with its fiber. Obstetricians have eased the pain of childbirth with its leaves. Farmers have crushed its seeds and used the oil within to light their lamps. Mourners have thrown its seeds into blazing fires and have had their sorrow transformed into blissful ecstasy by the fumes that filled the air. Marihuana has been known by many names: hemp, hashish, dagga, bhang, loco weed, grass-the list is endless. Formally christened Cannabis sativa in 1753 by Carl Linnaeus, marihuana is one of nature's hardiest specimens. It needs little care to thrive. One need not talk to it, sing to it, or play soothing tranquil Brahms lullabies to coax it to grow. It is as vigorous as a weed. It is ubiquitous. It fluorishes under nearly every possible climatic condition.
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.

Download or read book Empires Nations and Natives written by Benoît de L'Estoile and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2005-09-22 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empires, Nations, and Natives is a groundbreaking comparative analysis of the interplay between the practice of anthropology and the politics of empires and nation-states in the colonial and postcolonial worlds. It brings together essays that demonstrate how the production of social-science knowledge about the “other” has been inextricably linked to the crafting of government policies. Subverting established boundaries between national and imperial anthropologies, the contributors explore the role of anthropology in the shifting categorizations of race in southern Africa, the identification of Indians in Brazil, the implementation of development plans in Africa and Latin America, the construction of Mexican and Portuguese nationalism, the genesis of “national character” studies in the United States during World War II, the modernizing efforts of the French colonial administration in Africa, and postcolonial architecture. The contributors—social and cultural anthropologists from the Americas and Europe—report on both historical and contemporary processes. Moving beyond controversies that cast the relationship between scholarship and politics in binary terms of complicity or autonomy, they bring into focus a dynamic process in which states, anthropological knowledge, and population groups themselves are mutually constructed. Such a reflexive endeavor is an essential contribution to a critical anthropological understanding of a changing world.

Download or read book Community Management of Opioid Overdose written by World Health Organization and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An estimated 69000 people die each year from opioid overdose. Opioid overdose is easily reversed with the opioid antidote naloxone and with basic life support. Such care is generally only available in medical settings, however. These guidelines recommend that people who are likely to witness an opioid overdose, including people who use opioids, and their family and friends should be given access to naloxone and training in its use so that they can respond to opioid overdose in an emergency if a medical response is not available. Naloxone can be injected or administered intra-nasally and has minimal effects in people who have not used opioids. While naloxone administered by bystanders is a potentially life-saving emergency interim response to opioid overdose, it should not be seen as a replacement for comprehensive medical care.
