Originally published as a single volume, "The Heart of Listening" has been re-issued as two separate volumes because of public demand for a more concise, portable edition. Milne, a third generation Scottish osteopath, begins by explaining the visionary approach to healing, and how it may be applied to the realm of craniosacral work. He explains the importance of meditation, centering, and the cultivation of heartfulness in the development of compassionate practice. Milne introduces the reader to the story of visionary work--its genesis, evolution, philosophy, and practice--and explains how a grounding in meditation, sensitive touch, and intuitive perception can lead to a remarkable unfoldment in skill development.

This color atlas is a detailed guide on how to perform open, endoscopic, and robotic thyroidectomy techniques safely and effectively. Each chapter offers step-by-step descriptions of essential surgical procedures and techniques. Relevant information is included on surgical anatomy, and clear guidance is provided on preoperative set-up, draping, instrumentation, and complications and their treatment.

In each case, the evidence supporting the technique is carefully examined. In the closing chapter, the role of new energy sources in thyroid surgery is discussed. The lucid text is supported by more than 200 full-color illustrations clarifying surgical anatomy, instrumentation, and procedures, and surgical video clips are also available to readers via a website. This atlas will be invaluable in enabling surgeons to achieve optimal outcomes when performing thyroid surgery.

Pierre Pfutsch zeigt, dass mit dem Notfallsanitatergesetz aus dem Jahr 2014 die berufliche Tatigkeit im Rettungsdienst stark aufgewertet wurde. Den Berufsangehoerigen wurde eine dreijahrige Ausbildung, die Moeglichkeit zur akademischen Bildung und sogar die Ausubung bestimmter heilkundlicher Massnahmen zugestanden. Nach Ansicht des Autors wird seitdem die Frage nach Delegation bzw. Substitution arztlicher Leistungen verhandelt. Zu Beginn waren Rettungssanitater zum uberwiegenden Teil ehrenamtliche Mitarbeiter, die kaum mehr als eine Erste-Hilfe-Ausbildung besassen und lediglich fur den Transport zustandig waren. Aufgrund des medizinischen Fortschritts und der steigenden Unfallzahlen im Strassenverkehr setzte Ende der 1960er-Jahre eine Professionalisierung dieses Berufsfeldes ein. Treffen Notfallsanitater vor dem Notarzt am Unfallort ein und mussen bei lebensbedrohlichen Zustanden tatig werden, begeben sie sich in eine juristische Grauzone, die einige Unsicherheiten mit sich bringt. Der Autor: Dr. Pierre Pfutsch ist Historiker und wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter am Institut fur Geschichte der Medizin der Robert Bosch Stiftung in Stuttgart und forscht dort zur deutsch-deutschen Zeitgeschichte von Gesundheitsberufen.

This second edition of the Oxford Handbook of Key Clinical Evidence provides an alternative to the growing volumes of trial data for students, trainees and researchers looking for the key evidence affecting medical practice.

Essential Surgery is well-established as one of the leading textbooks of surgery for medical students, core surgical trainees and those in professions allied to medicine. Covering general surgery, trauma, orthopaedics, vascular surgery, urology, paediatric surgery, cardiothoracic surgery, neurosurgery, maxillofacial surgery and ENT, it also incorporates appropriate levels of basic science throughout. The book is ideal to accompany clinical courses, as well as being a practical manual for readers at more advanced levels requiring a revision aid for exams. Its main aim is to stimulate the reader to a greater enjoyment and understanding of the practice of surgery. The uniformity of the writing style and the clarity of elucidation will encourage continued reading, while the emphasis on the principles of surgery will enable a real understanding of the subject matter. The book incorporates a problem-solving approach wherever possible, emphasising how diagnoses are made and why particular treatments are used. The pathophysiological basis of surgical diseases is discussed in relation to their management, acting as a bridge between basic medical sciences and clinical problems. The book's extensive use of original illustrations, colour photographs, radiology images, boxes and tables emphasises important concepts and will promote easy revision of topics. The principles of operative surgery and pre-, peri- and postoperative care are explained together with outlines of common operations, enabling students and trainee surgeons to properly understand procedures and to participate intelligently in the operating department. A major and comprehensive revision of the text has taken full account of the progressive evolution of surgery and includes new scientific and clinical concepts that have advanced medical understanding. Ensuring the book's contents are aligned to the curriculum of the UK Intercollegiate MRCS examination has resulted in the addition of new topics including an emphasis on peri-operative care optimisation, enhanced recovery programmes, antibiotic use and resistance, updated cancer staging, minimally invasive surgery, and the evolving role of interventional radiology. Additional essential governance and management topics are covered, including patient safety, surgical ethics, communication, consent, clinical audit and principles of research. The broad experience of surgical teaching and training of two new editors and many new contributors, all with sub-specialist expertise, have brought a contemporary perspective on the book's contents and its presentation. New national and international guidelines for managing common disorders have been incorporated where appropriate, including major haemorrhage management pathways and trauma. There are new dedicated chapters on major trauma management and elective orthopaedics.

Dieses essential fasst die Grundlagen der Wundheilung und ihre Phaseneinteilung zusammen und bietet Praktikern einen UEberblick uber die ablaufenden Prozesse, um eine fundierte und an das jeweilige Wundheilungsstadium angepasste Behandlung zu ermoeglichen. Insbesondere wird die Rolle der Fibroblasten und ihrer Enzyme als wesentlicher Faktor der Gewebsneubildung, Gewebeanpassung und Kontrakturbildung dargestellt. Es wird gezeigt, dass Fibroblasten auf mechanische und chemische Reize reagieren und sich durch Therapie und Schienenversorgung positiv beeinflussen lassen. Die Autoren nehmen die Wirkung der Fibroblasten zum Ausgangspunkt und zeigen, wie der gezielte Einsatz von Orthesen die Range of Motion (ROM) erweitern kann. Zu diesem Zweck werden unterschiedlich intensiv wirkende Schienenformen vorgestellt.
