Download or read book The general practitioner s bible written by Enrique Mendoza Sierra and published by Enrique Mendoza Sierra. This book was released on 2020-05-06 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the diseases that are most frequently encountered during general medical consultation. The discussion of each condition includes the following: Introductory paragraph. This section summarizes the condition, its definition, main clinical characteristics, and epidemiology, as a quick guide for the doctor regarding the specific disease, the type of people who may suffer from it, and its prognosis. Etiopathogenesis. Here, the causes of the disease are explained in a simple and concrete manner to give the doctor a clearer picture of the pathology of the disease. Signs and symptoms. In this section the most significant characteristics of the disease are described, which makes it possible to identify and differentiate the disease from other similar ones. Diagnosis. This section provides the key information to establish the diagnosis of each condition. In most cases, the clinical information is explained in such a way that neither laboratory nor office testing will be required. Treatment. This section contains a concise listing of the most effective, current, accessible, and least toxic drugs to treat the disease, together with dosages for adults and children (where applicable), in addition to the length of time that the drug should be taken. Almost all of the drugs described are available in generic form, which is an important economic consideration for the patient. In Mexico and many other countries, the quality of these products is verified by bioequivalence tests to compare the activity of the patent drug with the generic one. Most physicians need to prescribe fewer than 100 different drugs for their various patients. Therefore, it is much more important, especially in terms of patient safety, that the doctor have in-depth prescription information about a few drugs, than to know a little about a wide range of drugs that he/she may never have the opportunity to prescribe.
Download or read book Being Christian in Your Medical Practice written by Dr. Jim Halla and published by Ambassador International. This book was released on 2002-06-01 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being a doctor and going to the doctor are theological issues. A major thesis of the book is that a de-medicalization of physicians is necessary and should be replaced by a Scripto-centric approach to life in the practice of medicine. This call is radical, humanly speaking, but we have a God Who has given much to us as Christian physicians and expects much of us. There is a biblical view of the practice of medicine, and it is the major avenue that patients have for reaching true comfort and help. Each physician must be able to articulate it and the book is written for that purpose. A rightly understood biblical view of medicine is the only way that doctors have for giving genuine hope to hurting people and for the advancement of God s kingdom.

It is so well translated that no one would know that it is a translation. Dr Tournier's mastery of Scripture is astonishing.' Alasdair Maclntyre wrote in The Guardian: `A book of many virtues. Dr Tournier faces the questions whicfi so many avoid. "Just how is divine power active in the world? Is not belief in such a power simply a retreat from science into magic?".' And the Church Times described the book as one 'of exceptional interest to all who are concerned with the problems of healing . . . a work of the deepest spiritual insight'.

Book excerpt: Now thoroughly revised and updated, the new edition of this popular book ensures that GPs and practice managers alike have a practical guide to the financial issues affecting medical practice.

Sound financial management is vital if these pitfalls are to be avoided. Written by specialists in the increasingly complex area of practice finance, this is an accessible guide for non-specialists, providing answers to routine queries and illustrating typical situations with worked examples.

Download or read book Reading the Bible in the Strange World of Medicine written by Allen Verhey and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2003-12-11 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author of such major books as Remembering Jesus: Christian Community, Scripture, and the Moral Life, Allen Verhey has become one of today's most trusted Christian voices in contemporary ethics, including the moral challenges that new medical technologies pose to Christian faith and decision-making. With this new book Verhey brings the biblical tradition to bear on contemporary bioethical concerns. Drawing on an unmatched depth of insight in these two realms, Verhey explores how the Bible can illuminate and guide medical ethics. He argues that churches are called to think and speak clearly about bioethical concerns, and he lays out here the scriptural tools for them to do so. After firmly grounding Christian ethical discourse in Scripture, Verhey shows how the Bible can be applied to such pressing questions as suffering, genetic intervention, abortion, reproductive technologies, end-of-life care, physician-assisted suicide, and more. Filled with faith-based wisdom and apt illustrations of the moral dilemmas discussed, this book is a must-read for Christians grappling with the ethical dimensions of medicine today.

Download or read book Heirs of General Practice written by John McPhee and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heirs of General Practice is a frieze of glimpses of young doctors with patients of every age—about a dozen physicians in all, who belong to the new medical specialty called family practice. They are people who have addressed themselves to a need for a unifying generalism in a world that has become greatly subdivided by specialization, physicians who work with the "unquantifiable idea that a doctor who treats your grandmother, your father, your niece, and your daughter will be more adroit in treating you." These young men and women are seen in their examining rooms in various rural communities in Maine, but Maine is only the example. Their medical objectives, their successes, the professional obstacles they do and do not overcome are representative of any place family practitioners are working. While essential medical background is provided, McPhee's masterful approach to a trend significant to all of us is replete with affecting, and often amusing, stories about both doctors and their charges.
Download or read book Biblical Theology written by Ben Witherington, III and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-04 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Biblical Theology, Ben Witherington, III, examines the theology of the Old and New Testaments as a totality. Going beyond an account of carefully crafted Old and New Testament theologies, he demonstrates the ideas that make the Bible a sacred book with a unified theology. Witherington brings a distinctive methodology to this study. Taking a constructive approach, he first examines the foundations of the writers' symbolic universe - what they thought and presupposed about God - and how they revealed those thoughts through the narratives of the Old and New Testaments. He also shows how the historical contexts and intellectual worlds of the Old and New Testaments conditioned their narratives, and, in the process, created a large coherent Biblical world view, one that progressively reveals the character and action of God. Thus, the Yahweh of the Old Testament, the Son in the Gospels, and the Father, Son, and Spirit in the New Testament writings are viewed as persons who are part of the singular divine identity. Witherington's progressive revelation approach allows each part of the canon to be read in its original context and with its original meaning.
