Wound Healing and Wound Management - A Guide for Private Practice (Paperback): F.W. Schildberg Wound Healing and Wound Management - A Guide for Private Practice (Paperback)

Whenever the integrity of the skin is impaired, via trauma or surgical incision, wounds und wound healing are the natural consequences. Thus, every physician should be interested in the biological processes involved in wound healing. The physician does not usually interfere with these natural processes, knowing that the body heals itself (natura sanat). It is not until the natural wound healing process is disturbed, that we realize how little we know about this area. Our limited knowledge is not even available to most physicians. Advances in the areas of cell-and molecular biology have also resulted in substantial progress in the field of wound healing. Today, we know that the process of tissue repair occurs in three phases and is controlled by specific cells. These cells release potent mediators which in turn regulate the function of other cells surrounding the area. "Certain rules apply to the healing of wounds and injured tissue. You must follow nature for nature will never follow you," this sentence writen by Paracelsus in his book "Chirurgia magna" is still valid today. Current reseach in wound healing is exploring these rules and integrating them into new therapeutical concepts. The purpose of this book is to make current knowledge on basic healing processes, research in this area and on wound management available to most physicians. Due to the importance of wound healing and the successful combination of basic science and clinical aspects, I would like this book to be widely accepted.

Knowing Practice - The Clinical Encounter Of Chinese Medicine (Paperback, Revised): Judith Farquhar Knowing Practice - The Clinical Encounter Of Chinese Medicine (Paperback, Revised)
Judith Farquhar
R1,682 Discovery Miles 16 820 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book examines the theory and practice of traditional medicine in modern China. Farquhar describes the logic of diagnosis and treatment from the inside perspective of doctors and scholars. She demonstrates how theoretical and textual materials interweave with the practical requirements of the clinic. By showing how Chinese medical choices are made, she considers problems of agency in relation to different forms of knowledge. "Knowing Practice" will be of value not only to anthropologists interested in medical practice but also to historians and sociologists interested in the social life of technical expertise and traditional teachings.

Seit dem Beginn der Arbeiten zur ersten Auflage dieses Woerterbuchs sind mehr als 25 Jahre vergangen. Mein damals gehegter Wunsch, dass mit diesem Werk der botanischen Forschung und Praxis ein zuverlassigeres Mittel zur schnellen Orientierung uber Etymologie, Geschichte und Aussprache der botanischen Namen in die Hand gegeben werden koennte, ist uber Erwarten in Erfullung gegangen, wie die zahlreichen Zuschriften und Rezensionen gezeigt haben. Auf der anderen Seite sind aber im vergangenen Vierteljahrhundert gerade auf dem taxonomischen Gebiet Veranderungen in einer Groessenordnung von mehreren Tausenden eingetreten, die allein schon deswegen eine Neubearbeitung dieses Buches erforderlich machten. Es genugt hierfur, die von mir damals benutzte 9. Aufl. des ZANDER von 1964 mit der aktuellen 14. Aufl. von 1993 zu vergleichen, die insgesamt 27 308 Namen, darunter aber 8209 Synonyme, umfasst. Es war also zunachst angebracht, das taxonomische Material zu aktualisieren und die Synonyme bis auf wenige, in der Forschung noch diskutierte (z. B. Pritzelago = Hutchinsia) oder aus Gewohnheit beibehaltene Relikte (z. B. Ophrys fuciflora statt regelhaftem Ophrys holoserica) zu eliminieren. Zugleich habe ich die Mate- rialgrundlage durch die massenhafte Neuaufnahme von Gattungen und Arten der Bakterien, Algen, Flechten, Moose und Farne, aber auch der Gymnospermen und Angiospermen, erheblich erweitert. Aus konventionellen Grunden sind auch die mykologischen Taxa weiterhin in diesem Buch vertreten, selbst wenn nach neueren Erkenntnissen die Pilze nicht mehr dem Pflanzenreich zugeordnet werden koennen. Auf dieser Grundlage bietet das Woerterbuch jetzt mehr als 35 000 Taxa, die einer etymo- logischen Prufung zu unterziehen waren.

R2,869 Discovery Miles 28 690 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Closely geared to general practice yet without neglecting basic theory, this book has retained so much appeal among readers .as to warrant a third edition. We assume that the work has retained its place among the leading publications on psychosomatics because it embodies our strong interest in the 'here and now' of medical practice. The timing of this thoroughly revised and enlarged edition appears opportune as psychosomatic basic care and the medicine of dialogue acquire more meaning in daily routine practice, and as the need for basic information increases. We conceive psychosomatics to be an integral part of medicine. When we speak of 'psychosomatic disorders' in this book, our premise is that somatic and psychosocial aspects play an important role in their pathogenesis and course. This notion constitutes the very basis of what is understood as psychosomatic medical treatment. Such a point of departure calls for a consistent spirit of cooperation with regard to the problems involved. This alone satisfies the initial requirement of simultaneously considering both the somatic and psychosocial aspects of health and illness.

A workshop to look at strategies, methods of implementation and evaluation of vocational training and Continuing Medical Education in General Practice was held in June 1990 in London. This text represents papers written by contributors to the workshop and pre-circulated papers which describe health systems and educational realities in six countries: Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden and the UK. The first part of the books compares the structure care systems and General Practice education in the UK and Nordic countries. The second part reviews teaching under five headings, each introduced by a brief commmentary highlighting the main issues and indicating the consensus view. Of particular note is the last chapter which presents demography and health service organization, arrangements for General Practice and primary health care, vocational (specialists) training of GPs, and continuing medical education for each of the six countries.

The "Europe against Cancer" programme has, from its inception, emphasised the key role which general practitioners must play in the actions necessary to achieve its aim of reduc ing the incidence and the mortality from cancer in the European Community. General practitioners, because of their day-to-day direct and continuing contact with patients, playa role not only in primary prevention and education of patients, but also in motivating their patients to accept secondary prevention and screening, some of it carried out by general practitioners themselves. These preventive activities are in addition to their traditional role in the care and management of patients with cancer at home, and increas ingly, their role in active treatment. In view of the importance of the general practitioner in the "Europe against Cancer" pro gramme, the European Commission, with a view to providing general practitioners with up-to-date useful information, has sponsored the production of this series of publications on organ based cancers, especially written for general practitioners. MICHEL RICHONNIER Coordinator ofthe "Europe against Cancer" programme, Commission ofthe European Communities, Brussels Preface To decrease the death rate of lung cancer is today one of the major challenges of medical doctors all over the world. In Europe alone, one person is dying of lung cancer every two minutes. Accordingly, most physicians will regularly in their career be confronted with a patient being either suspect of or having a lung cancer.

The assessment of outcomes of medical interventions is a central concern of patients, physicians, nurses, and of individuals, groups and government agencies who pay for medical care. Outcome assessments are incomplete without measurements of functional status. Functional Status Measurement in Primary Care provides an indepth discussion of psychometric issues as applied to functional status assessment and details the practical experience of Family Physicians/General Practitioners in several countries with functional status measurements in their patient populations. International experience with the use of the Darthmouth COOP Charts is described along with their practical application in the daily practice of physicians and nurses of ambulatory patients.

R1,514 Discovery Miles 15 140 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

My practice life has spanned 36 years and during that time I have been involved in untangling countless mysterious maladies-or at least trying to do so. All of these efforts were without the benefit of any formal training about family systems. I am greatly encouraged by this book because it first draws attention to the intricate web that mankind has woven for itself. The family physician has often been caught up in this web, and therefore rendered impotent. Efforts to understand all of this are to be applauded. It has been my good fortune to know the editors, Leonard Roberts and Michael Crouch and, as a family physician, I feel that their "hearts are in the right place." They have grown up, medically speaking, in an era when society has become more complex, where life is not easy. Birth and its medical participants are suspect; childhood is complicated by divorce and loneliness; adolescence is a time of aimless searching; young adults are hard pressed to earn a living; the quality of life is being threatened somewhat by the overgrowth of high technology; dying with dignity is at a premium. The editors are to be commended for helping us clarify the role of the family physician in all of this.

"Conclusions are usually considered guesses" Henry S. Haskins, American writer in Meditations in Wall Street Students' minds, whether undergraduate or postgraduate, soon become stale when faced with lectures or even not so large textbooks. Supplementing lecture notes and textbooks with multiple-choice questions, therefore, attunes the mind to this style of examination which the student will certainly meet and yet also relieves the tedium and monotony of the conventional learning route. This multiple-choice textbook, therefore, should be used side by side with lecture notes, textbooks and clinical teaching material. The book covers a wide field of genitourinary medicine. This necessarily overlaps with general medicine, urology, bacteriology, virology, psychiatry, sexual medicine, im munology and proctology. With regard to immunology, a basic set of teaching questions are included so that HIV disease may be more easily understood without recourse to immunology textbooks. The answers to the questions are not given in a uniform style. This is partly to relieve monotony, and partly because some questions need no explanation, others need a prose answer and yet others are best answered by a point-by-point explanation. We also provide references for those interested. There is some overlap between questions but only enough, we hope, to facilitate learning but not produce somnolence."

R2,845 Discovery Miles 28 450 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

In this book East and West are united in a total vision which gives the reader an expansive view of inner lives and behaviors, some of which are healthy and some not. The author presents an analysis of contemporary social relationships and the attitudes associated with them. But he does far more than this. He also vividly describes the "primary" and "secondary" capabili ties of the psyche, capabilities that are valid for all times and all situations. Peseschkian draws on his experiences in the Middle Eastern homeland of his youth and also on the insights he has gained through his psychotherapeutic practice. He does not stop with special examples, but draws conclusions that are valid for people everywhere. He then molds these conclusions into an illustrative system. Uniquely interesting are the passages where the author describes errors in the development of a child and erroneous attitudes on the part of the educator, such as when he characterizes the punitive behavior of parents: "Right from the start a child must learn to obeYi" "There must be punishmenti" and "You have to break the child's wilL" Or when he shows how tensions between the parents are transferred to their children: "You're just like your father. He doesn't know what punctuality is either. " The author attempts to integrate his faith in psychotherapy with his vision of the world and also tries to understand the world's religions as an expression of their times."

R1,513 Discovery Miles 15 130 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The author's principal aim is to win over the patient through the development of the "positive" aspects of his psychopathology-a concern the significance of which I have also discovered, especially in schizophrenic therapy. It is in this specific sense that Peseschkian speaks of "positive" psychotherapy. His model is a notable synthesis of psychodynamic and behavior-therapeutic elements, making an essential contribution to unified relationships within psychotherapy. In this way Peseschkian is attempting not to directly confront the patient's resistances. The consultation takes place in a loving way through allusions to poetry, proverbs and oriental fairy tales and myths, to which Peseschkian, as a Persian, has direct access. His ability to offer his patient a great treasure of handed-down wisdom knows no bounds. Anyone who has personally experi enced the author's therapeutic enthusiasm and optimism will understand why this method of short psychotherapeutic procedure is highly successful in its effects.

R2,117 Discovery Miles 21 170 Ships in 9 - 17 working days

This volume addresses gaps in the existing literature of global mental health by focusing on the ethical considerations that are implicit in discussions of health policy. In line with trends in clinical education around the world today, this text is explicitly designed to draw out the principles and values by which programs can be designed and policy decisions enacted. It presents an ethical lens for understanding right and wrong in conditions of scarcity and crisis, and the common controversies that lead to conflict. Additionally, a focus on the mental health response in "post-conflict" settings, provides guidance for real-world matters facing clinicians and humanitarian workers today. Global Mental Health Ethics fills a crucial gap for students in psychiatry, psychology, addictions, public health, geriatric medicine, social work, nursing, humanitarian response, and other disciplines.

So folgte eine Kur der anderen. Aber schon bald vergass man die neuroti- sche Ursache meiner Krankheit ...Es war ja kaum anders moglich: ich brachte meinen behandelnden Arzten grosses Vertrauen entgegen und glaubte ihnen bedingungslos, wenn sie meine Schmerzen heute einem Feh- ler im Stoffwechsel oder Blutkreislauf zuschrieben und dann wieder der Tu- berkulose oder allerhand Infektionen, teils blamabler Art. Weiter muss ich bekennen, dass mir jede Behandlung eine Zeitlang Linderung verschaffte, was die neueste Diagnose wieder bestatigte. Fruher oder spater schien diese aber doch weniger zuzutreffen, aber niemals ganz falsch zu sein, weil bei mir kein Korperteil fehlerlos funktioniert.

He is a genuine (medical) "computernik." . I was asked as a favor to review his manuscript and suggest any needed changes before it was sent to a publisher. (He was not at that time planning to send it to Springer-Verlag.) Reading it was one of those pleasures I usually associate with a review article that finally explains those things about a subject that I was aware of but never really understood. I was familiar with practice billing, for example, but didn't really know the whys and hows of it all. Doctor's Office Com puter Prep Kit has filled the gaps in my knowledge with superb detail."
