Almen praksis

101 almenmedicinske patienter er en samling karakteristiske og repræsentative patienthistorier fra almen praksis, som alle har deres oprindelse i forfatternes egne oplevelser med virkelige patienter. Samlingen giver dermed et realistisk billede af den kliniske hverdag i almen praksis og af det arbejde, de praktiserende læger udfører. Bogen lægger sig tæt op ad lærebogen Almen medicin, hvor man kan læse den grundlæggende sygdomslære, der relaterer sig til patienthistorierne. Målgruppen er især medicinstuderende og yngre læger, der gennem arbejdet med bogens sygehistorier kan blive forberedt på henholdsvis eksamen og det kliniske arbejde i almen praksis. Bogen omsætter teoretisk viden til faglig handling ud fra: en systematisk tilgang til kommunikation med patienten en systematisk tilgang til konsultationsprocessen fokus på, hvordan man spænder et sikkerhedsnet ud under patienten præsentation af håndteringsvalg ved typiske almenmedicinske problemstillinger og forløb klare læringsmål for hver enkelt sygehistorie. For andre faggrupper, fx speciallæger, praksissygeplejersker og sekretærer, kan bogen give et spændende indblik i almenmedicinske problemstillinger og en forståelse for specialets rolle i sundhedsvæsenet. Alle bogens sygehistorier præsenteres i en almenmedicinsk konsensus med konsultationsprocessen som refleksionsramme og PSOAP (Problem, Subjektivt, Objektivt, Analyse, Plan) som overordnet struktur.Forfatterne har bevidst valgt lidt forskellige formuleringer og spørgsmålstyper fra patient til patient for at afspejle den variation, der findes i almen praksis generelt, og individuelt fra læge til læge. Forfatterne til 101 almenmedicinske patienter er alle aktive praktiserende læger og samtidig centralt placeret i forhold til både præ- og postgraduat undervisning og forskning inden for specialet.

Jane McLelland blev hårdt ramt af livmoderhalskræft og herefter af spredning til lungekræft stadie 4. Hun gennemgik adskillige konventionelle tilbud, men først da hun satte sig ind i kroppens evne til at bekæmpe kræft og fandt ud og gik i gang med en udsultnings diæt bestående af kosttilskud og en række ældre medicintyper lykkede det hende at blive kræftfri. Hun beretter om den modstand hun mødte fra det officielle sundhedsvæsen, som i stedet for at hjælpe hende modarbejdede hende. Men 15 år efter den første kræftdiagnose, er hun stadig her stadigvæk. Bogen fortæller og beskriver teoretisk, hvordan og hvad man selv skal gøre, hvis man vil tage sagen i egen hånd. Det gælderom at stoppe mulighederne for, at kræftcellerne kan overleve i kroppen. Der er vejledninger i, hvordan man kan bruge hendes metoder. Hun bruger både konventionelle og komplementære tiltag. Specielt inddrager hun kombinationer af medicin, der allerede er opfundet og godkendt til en anden sygdom. De kaldes Repurposed Drugs/ off label (genanvendt medicin) og undersøgelser har godtgjort, at de har kræfthæmmende virkning. Så de burde inddrages i kampen mod en kræftsygdom.

Hvis New Public Management er kommet til kort, og evidensbølgen er på retur, hvad kommer så nu? Bedre begrundet praksis stiller sig på kanten af denne udvikling og giver en række opbyggelige bud på, hvordan velfærdsprofessionelle kan arbejde med udvikling og forbedringer af kvalitet i praksis uden at forfalde til tavs viden eller kontekstløse manualiseringer. I en række kapitler præsenteres modeller, greb og metoder, der kan bruges, når socialrådgivere, lærere, beskæftigelseskonsulenter, pædagoger, sundhedspersonale m.fl. skal bedømme og forbedre hinandens arbejde i en lokalt forankret praksis.Bogen henvender sig dels til praktikere, ledere og fagkoordinatorer med ansvar for daglig kvalitetssikring i ovennævnte felter, og dels til studerende og forskere inden for samme områder.

This book analyzes the factors that have sparked pandemics over the past 2000 years, from the Antonine Plague to COVID-19.It is noteworthy that the frequency of pandemics has increased over the past 2000 years. The authors identify three main drivers for the development of pandemics: transportation, human development, and changes in natural ecosystems. It is important to note that with the advent of the industrial age, the length of time it takes for a pandemic to develop has decreased. COVID-19 is certainly not the last pandemic we will face. Therefore, it is of paramount importance to learn from the past 2000 years to help educate general community and public health officials about pandemic risks and help governments prepare for the next pandemic.The book is also very useful in low and middle-income countries where, in the last several decades, viruses with potential for pandemics have originated. It's comprehensiveness and didactic style make this book a valuable read for government health agencies, private organizations, health care professionals and students.

Mein Freund Beuys - Das Buch zum Film¿Ich schreibe meine Biografie selbst, um Lügen und Täuschungen aus dem Weg zu gehen.Ich dachte ein Maler ohne Biografie gibt es nicht.¿ ¿ Claude Jaté.Claude Jaté wurde 1955 unter seinem bürgerlichen Namen Klaus-Dieter Schneider geboren und schon relativ früh entdeckte er die Kunst für sich. Wie er sagt, ist er bereits mit 14 oder 15 Jahren nach Paris gefahren und hat sich in ein Künstlerviertel gestellt, etwas gekritzelt und seine ersten Werke an Passanten für ein paar Franc verkauft. Nach angefangenen Ausbildungen und einer Phase, in der er sich viel ausprobiert hat, wurde er schließlich Taxifahrer in St. Ingbert. Das war auch die Zeit, in der seine Psychosen immer stärker wurden und er schließlich in die Psychiatrie eingewiesen wurde. Da sein Herz schon immer an Kunst hing und seine Kreativität ein wichtiges Ventil war, um sich ausdrücken und seinen Gefühlen sowie Gedanken einen Freiraum geben zu können, wurden Maltherapien ein wichtiger Bestandteil während seinem Aufenthalt in der Psychiatrie. Seine Gemälde waren Ausgangspunkt der therapeutischen Gespräche, die als Visualisierungen von Unbewusstem, als ¿Urbilder¿ der menschlichen Seele, gelten. In dieser Zeit nahm er auch mit Briefen Kontakt zum deutschen Aktionskünstler Joseph Beuys auf, von dem er schließlich seinen Künstlernamen ¿Claude Jaté¿ erhielt. In den folgenden Jahren musste er immer wieder in Psychiatrien behandelt werden, da ihn auch immer weitere Persönlichkeiten ausgemacht haben. Doch die Kunst wurde zur zentralen Liebe in seinem Leben, die ihn festigte.

Patients often seek advice in the doctor's office whose complaints are of a functional nature and cannot be directly assigned to an organ disease via laboratory or imaging. Many of these disorders such as pain, dizziness, tinnitus, lumpiness or the "heel spur" originate from the fascial organ, which is only now slowly being understood as such.Fascia connects all parts of our body mechanically but more important, all our receptors for intro-and extroception and for the regulation of homeostasis are embedded in fascia. If you take this system into account in the differential diagnosis, you can spare your patients invasive, stressful diagnostics and offer an accurate and successful therapy.Understand causes of fascial pain and dysfunction: fascial knots, principals of fascial disorders, flash tests, fascial chains, trigger points, interaction between cause and location of pain or other symptoms like fixed eczema and othersUnderstand causes of myofascial pain and dysfunction: myofascial knots, fascial chains, trigger points, interaction between cause and location of pain. fascial slackness and blockages Clinic, symptoms Recognize fascial syndromes and pain patterns correctly Causal and permanently effective treatment approaches Therapy of the fascial system Causes of fascial disorders Cooperation doctor - physiotherapistThe authors - a general practitioner and a physiotherapist - complement each other perfectly in their knowledge and skills.

The book discusses about 45 cases of maternal autopsies. These maternal mortalities are related to pregnancy-related diseases, pre-existing diseases that worsen or manifest during pregnancy and diseases for which pregnant patient has increased risk. As the study of maternal mortality is a healthcare quality indicator and plays an important role in the improvement of obstetric care, the book aims at discussing autopsy findings, which is the gold standard for establishing not only the causes of death, but also to uncover the various pathological lesions produced by the physiologic phenomenon of pregnancy. This helps in identifying the direct and indirect causes, which can be reviewed at multidisciplinary review meetings.The chapters are arranged according to direct and indirect causes of maternal death, involving varied target organ systems i.e. central nervous system, cardiovascular system, respiratory system, gastro-intestinal tract, hepato-biliary system and pancreas, urinary system, female genital tract and others. However, it does not include diseases coincidental in pregnancy.Each case begins with the complete case history (age, duration of pregnancy, clinical presentation, investigations, clinical diagnosis, therapy, and course during ward stay, if any), autopsy findings, followed by a clinico-pathological discussion and includes appropriate gross organ and microscopic images. The book caters to the specialists in pathology, obstetrics, general medicine, critical care, surgery, pulmonologists, cardiology and all those involved in the care of pregnant women.

Wie hängen Herzinfarkte mit Karies zusammen?Wie ein kaputtes Knie mit dem knirschenden Kiefer?Für so ziemlich jedes Organ unseres Körpers gibt es irgendeinen speziellen Arzt. Der Zahnarzt wird so nur aufgesucht, wenn es um Zähne oder Kiefer geht. Doch wer schon mal chronisch krank war ¿ oder einfach nur vom ¿falschen Arzt¿ behandelt wurde ¿ weiß, dass unser Körper mehr als die Summe seiner Teile ist. Die heutige (westliche) Medizin wird leider von Ärzten dominiert, die zu wenig über den eigenen ¿Tellerrand¿ hinaus schauen. Daher bleiben ganzkörperliche Zusammenhänge oft auf der Strecke. Da hilft auch der Fachjargon nicht, mit dem so mancher Mediziner über diesen Umstand hinweg täuschen will. Aber kann ein einzelner Arzt überhaupt ganzkörperlichen Zusammenhängen gerecht werden? Eine einfache Darstellung solcher komplexen Zusammenhänge war jedenfalls dringend nötig. Fand zumindest der Münchner Zahnarzt Michael Riedel, der sich seit Jahrzehnten kontinuierlich weiterbildet ¿ unter anderem mit Schwerpunkt CMD (Craniomanibuläre Dysfunktion). Weil sich in unserem Mund eben doch der ganze Körper spiegelt und die Wissenschaft nicht stillsteht. Daher dieses Buch! Es ist der Versuch, der thematischen Komplexität zum Trotz, einer bloß eindimensionalen Betrachtung unserer Körperfunktionen die Stirn zu bieten. Manche Zusammenhänge sind einfach verblüffend! Wenn wir sie kennen, können wir Probleme unseres Körpers besser verstehen, und sie lösen! Der Zahnarzt Michael Riedel, der Buchautor Ulrich Pfeiffer (eigentlich ein Zahnarzt-Hasser). Zwei alte Schulfreunde. Was dieses Duo stark macht, ist der Balanceakt zwischen medizinischem Fachgesimpel und unbedarfter Patientensicht. Versüßt wird das Buch mit zahlreichen Illustrationen.
