Chronic Pain - Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy, Prevention, and Management (Hardcover, New): Hooshang Hooshmand Chronic Pain - Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy, Prevention, and Management (Hardcover, New)
Hooshang Hooshmand
R8,608 Discovery Miles 86 080 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The most misunderstood and complex subject in medicine is the hyperpathic pain of sympathetic dystrophy. More common than previously thought, it comprises between 10 and 20 percent of chronic pain patients. Understanding this self-perpetuating pain -- which "never stops" -- requires unbiased knowledge of physiology and pathology.
Chronic Pain: Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy, Prevention, and Management is devoted to the subject of Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD). The book classifies the different stages of RSD and describes the qualitative and quantitative differences between natural endorphins and synthetic narcotics. Included are long-term follow-ups on sympathectomy patients.
This important reference explains why sympathectomy fails, but nerve block and physiotherapy is successful in the treatment of RSD. In addition, the mechanism of development of RSD is clarified through an extensive collection of drawings and anatomical pictures as well. Other topics include thermographic methods for the diagnosis of RSD, the role of ACTH in the management of chronic pain, and comparisons between the effects of ACTH and those of corticosteroids.

Features
o Classifies the different stages of RSD

Biomarkers of Hip Implant Function (Paperback): Ilona Swiatkowska Biomarkers of Hip Implant Function (Paperback)
Ilona Swiatkowska
R4,107 Discovery Miles 41 070 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Biomarkers of Hip Implant Function brings together established and potential new biomarkers, critically evaluating their clinical usefulness based on recent evidence. Researchers will benefit from a comprehensive view of the topic to identify underexplored areas. Orthopedic surgeons and general practitioners will use the book to monitor implant performance and facilitate management of their patients. Additionally, the work will benefit engineers and joint implant manufacturers to guide improvements in design. This book will also be of interest to regulators and policymakers by helping them update their guidelines on follow-ups for hip implant recipients. Nearly all orthopedic surgeons have implanted a cobalt-chromium hip and most general practitioners have at least one patient with cobalt-chromium implant on their books. The recent worldwide controversy surrounding metal-on-metal hips means that advice on how to manage patients with these implants is of great interest to these professionals. Hence, this book is a welcomed addition to the conversation.

R5,406 Discovery Miles 54 060 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Outcome Measures in Orthopaedic Trauma is a combined new edition of the successful Outcome Measures in Orthopaedics and Outcome Measures in Trauma that were the first books devoted to the topic of outcome measures for orthopedic trauma surgeons and researchers. The ability to measure results is vital for effective medical practice, particularly in view of the increased emphasis on evidence-based medicine and the introduction of the NICE guidelines. Evaluation of the success of failure of treatment is not only of importance to the patient and practitioner, but also to the health administrator as health care costs increase. Orthopedic and orthopedic trauma are highly complex subjects that can prove difficult to quantify, but accurate measurement is required for setting standards of care and for assessing the severity of an injury. Outcome Measures in Orthopaedics and Orthopaedic Trauma helps the clinician fulfil his or her role in the outcome assessment by providing good references to sources of instruments and techniques used and assisting them in making an informed selection from the different scoring systems available. It will be of interest to orthopaedic and trauma surgeons as well as emergency personnel and lawyers, researchers and hospital administrators working in this area.
