Rome IV Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders for Primary Care and Non-Gi Clinicians
As noted, one of the Rome IV initiatives was that of reaching a larger audience of non-gastroenterologists. We have partnered with leaders in the primary care field to create a primary care book, co-edited by Joel Heidelbaugh, MD, and Pali Hungin, MD.For many years, the Rome Foundation has heard from primary care physicians that our educational materials are ?too complex, cumbersome, and not efficient? for practical day-to-day use. Taking this as a challenge, in 2010 the Board of Directors prioritized the effort to find ways to learn more about how primary care physicians understand and approach diagnosis and treatment of FGIDs. We approached Pali Hungin, MD, a leading expert in the primary ...
Chronicity : Care and Complexity
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. Chronicity is about people rather than medical conditions. It may best be understood as a complex phenomenon in which multiple elements interact with each other in unpredictable ways to bring about unanticipated changes. Making sense of chronicity, therefore, requires that we not only pay attention to all aspects of experiencing the condition, but also think about the relationships between them.
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the most common disorders with an increasing prevalence and incidence in the last two decades. This book, edited by two experienced surgeons and a clinical psychologist in cooperation with numerous worldwide leading experts, presents clinically relevant information for gastroenterologists, internists, surgeons, residents and also nurses, who frequently care for GERD patients. Focusing on different treatment concepts – medical, endoscopic as well as surgical – the chapters include the basics of symptomatology and epidemiology, pathophysiology, GERD among different age groups, complications and its treatment, hiatal hernia or H. pylori and GERD, NERD and functional heartburn, diagnostic procedures and also presurgical examination. In addition, the patient's perspectives of disease, diagnostics and treatment are included, the same as economic aspects of GERD, and the impact of disease on quality of life or patient-reported outcomes after treatment.

LIFE
LIFE: A Transdisciplinary Inquiry examines nature, cognition and society as an interwoven tapestry across disciplinary boundaries. This volume explores how information and communication are instrumental in and for living systems, acknowledging an integrative account of media as environments and technologies. The aim of the collection is a fuller and richer account of everyday life through a spectrum of insights from internationally known scholars of the natural sciences (physical and life sciences), social sciences and the arts. How or should life be defined? If life is a medium, how is it mediated? Viewed as interactions, transactions and contexts of ecosystems, life can be recognized throu...
A Practical Guide to Heart Failure in Older People
Heart failure is effectively a disease of older people. Eighty percent of patients are over 65 years old, and the majority of these are over 75. This figure is likely to increase significantly in the next two decades. The prognosis is worse than that of most cancers and heart failure is the commonest reason for hospital admission in the over 65s. The problems associated with treating heart failure in older patients are more diverse and complex than in those who are younger. The diagnosis in older patients is easily overlooked and as they were excluded from most heart failure treatment trials there has been a reluctance to treat them optimally (fewer than 20% are prescribed conventional medic...
