Substance Abuse and Addiction Research: Methodology, Mechanisms,
and Therapeutics is an up-to-date, comprehensive, practical book on
research methodologies for substance abuse and addiction that is
intended for researchers and consumers of research information at
all levels. The book is divided into four major sections, including
an Introduction, Research Methodology for clinical trials, animal
research and retrospective studies, Mechanisms of Abuse and
Addiction, and Investigative Therapeutics: Designing and Measuring
Outcomes. It serves a source for addressing all aspects of research
design, methods and analysis within the context of the field of
opioids, alcohol and other substances. The book covers what is
known in the field of quantitative and qualitative research
methods, provides future directions, and introduces new models for
investigation. It is organized around a translational science
framework, with the contents addressing substance use/addiction
research in the context of epidemiology, etiology, intervention
efficacy and effectiveness, and implementation of evidence-informed
interventions.
For years the administrative of anesthesia was extremely dangerous
and risky. Because of this the surgeon and anesthesiologist had to
balance the risks and benefits for each patient before proceeding
with surgery. In the last two decades the care of the surgical
patient has changed dramatically. New equipment, monitors and
pharmacologic agents have transformed surgical technique and
improved outcomes. Patients once deemed "too sick" for the
operating room are found frequently on operating room schedules
nationwide. Today, anesthesiology for the healthy patient in most
developed countries is extremely safe. However, perioperative
complications still occur. These events can be catastrophic for
patients and may have serious implications for residents, surgical
and anesthesiology staff and nurses. Prompt recognition and
management of these incidents may reduce or negate complications.
This is based on a fundamental base of knowledge acquired through
several avenues and practiced with other team members to maximize
outcomes. Engagement of all caregivers impacts outcomes. Many
organizations do not have the structural components or education to
recognize or manage these catastrophic events. This textbook will
provide educational material for the many students, as well as
nurses, residents or attending physicians who participate in
perioperative medicine. It will focus on the most serious
perioperative complications and include a discussion of the
pathophysiologic and pharmacologic implications unique to each.
Additionally, it will provide medicolegal information pertinent to
those providing care to these patients. All chapters will be
written with the most current and relevant information by leading
experts in each field.The layout and format is designed to be
purposeful, logical and visually effective. Other features include
review questions and answers, chapter summaries and shaded call-out
boxes to facilitate learning. Catastrophic Perioperative
Complications and Management will be of great utility for medical
and nursing students, anesthesiology residents, student nurse
anesthestists, surgical residents, nurses involved in perioperative
medicine as well as surgical and anesthesiology attending
physicians.
