Achieving Effective Integrated E-Care Beyond the Silos
Recent global and national debates have shown that demographic change, the rising incidence of chronic disease, and the unmet need for more personalized care are trends demanding a new, integrated approach to health and social care. The advancement and adoption of technology in both health and social care settings is a valuable tool for encouraging change and improving the quality and efficiency of care provided to patients and care clients.Achieving Effective Integrated E-Care Beyond the Silos presents a collection of real-life examples, frameworks, business models, financial implications, and methods of evaluating the technological tools that are enabling a more human-centered approach to health and social care. Based on relevant research in the field of integrated e-care, this publication is ideally designed for use by practitioners, researchers, and decision-makers in the care field.
Burnout, Fatigue, Exhaustion
This interdisciplinary book explores both the connections and the tensions between sociological, psychological, and biological theories of exhaustion. It examines how the prevalence of exhaustion – both as an individual experience and as a broader socio-cultural phenomenon – is manifest in the epidemic rise of burnout, depression, and chronic fatigue. It provides innovative analyses of the complex interplay between the processes involved in the production of mental health diagnoses, socio-cultural transformations, and subjective illness experiences. Using many of the existing ideologically charged exhaustion theories as case studies, the authors investigate how individual discomfort and wider social dynamics are interrelated. Covering a broad range of topics, this book will appeal to those working in the fields of psychology, sociology, medicine, psychiatry, literature, and history.

Gesundheitsförderung und Versorgung im ländlichen Raum
Laut Bundesinstitut für Bau-, Stadt- und Raumforschung sind in Deutschland 70 % der Fläche als ländlich ausgewiesen, rund 30 % der deutschen Bevölkerung lebt in diesem Raum. Der Anteil an älteren Menschen ist hier deutlich höher als im städtischen Raum und damit auch die Prävalenzen vieler chronischer Erkrankungen. Gleichzeitig steht jedoch die Sicherung einer adäquaten ärztlichen, pflegerischen und therapeutischen Versorgung vor großen Herausforderungen. Die Verbesserung der gesundheitlichen Versorgung von Menschen im Sozialraum "Land" ist im Hochschulbereich und bei Entscheidungsträger_Innen verschiedener förderaler Ebenen, stärker denn je im Fokus. Die Nachfrage nach erfolgr...
The Lancet: Stillbirths
Around 2·6 million stillbirths (the death of a baby at 28 weeks’ gestation or more) occur each year. Although 98% of these deaths take place in low-income and middle-income countries, stillbirths also continue to affect wealthier nations, with around 1 in every 300 babies stillborn in high-income countries. This book highlights the rates and causes of stillbirth globally, explores cost-effective interventions to prevent stillbirths (as well as maternal and neonatal deaths), and sets key actions to halve stillbirth rates by 2020. Also included are Comments from professional organisations and parent groups, the latter demonstrating the unique tragedy for families of the birth of a baby bearing no signs of life. This research was launched in London, New York, Hobart, Geneva, New Delhi, Florence, and Cape Town on April 14, 2011.
Choosing Cesarean
Obstetrician and gynecologist Magnus Murphy, MD, and journalist/advocate Pauline McDonagh Hull offer a compelling case for surgical delivery as a legitimate birth choice for informed women. By offering a wealth of medical evidence from around the world and thoughtfully countering the many objections detractors have lodged against it, the authors convincingly demonstrate that a planned cesarean birth at thirty-nine- plus weeks is a safe and often preferred alternative to a planned vaginal delivery. An indispensable guide for women, their families, and medical professionals.
Assistive Gesellschaft
Die Beiträge des Buches befassen sich mit der Frage, was ‚Gesellschaft‘ bedeutet, wenn nahezu alle Lebensbereiche assistiert werden. Ob Blindenhund, Butler oder Assistent der Geschäftsführung, Herzschrittmacher oder Navigationssystem, Pflegeroboter oder Ambient Assisted Living - wir werden assistiert von anderen Personen und Lebewesen, und immer häufiger auch von Technologien und Artefakten. Diesen Assistenten kommt eine spezifische und neue Rolle zu: sie beschützen, sie helfen, sie steuern uns. Prozesse der Assistierung in Lebens- und Arbeitswelt werden oft im Einklang mit sich steigernden Kompensations- und Effizienzversprechen vorangetrieben. Aber wie gestaltet sich Assistenz konkret? Welche Wechselwirkungen entstehen zwischen den beteiligten Instanzen? Und welche gesellschaftlichen Dynamiken und unbeabsichtigten Folgen sind damit verbunden? Darauf versucht der Sammelband Antworten zu geben.
