Este livro parte da história de vida de uma paciente renal crônica, a própria autora, que com suas experiências durante as seções de hemodiálise, percebeu a necessidade de trazer à luz do conhecimento o tema, com a abordagem dos cuidados paliativos e a espiritualidade, demostrando que é possível tornar as jornadas do tratamento mais humanas, auxiliando os pacientes e familiares a enfrentar o sofrimento e as limitações impostas pela enfermidade e pelo próprio tratamento. No transcorrer das pesquisas e entrevistas que ajudam a estruturar o conteúdo, ela versa sobre os medos e anseios dos pacientes renais crônicos, que precisam se preparar física e psicologicamente para o início do tratamento em clínicas especializadas de hemodiálise. A tese é também um instrumento questionador, que visa a responder à questão que a autora coloca: "Qual a produção científica existente no cenário nacional ou internacional acerca do tema: cuidados paliativos ofertados a pacientes com doença renal crônica em tratamento dialítico?"
Written by leading orthopaedists and rehabilitation specialists, this volume presents sequential treatment and rehabilitation plans for fractures of the upper extremity, lower extremity, and spine. The book shows how to treat each fracture--from both an orthopaedic and a rehabilitation standpoint--at each stage of healing. Each chapter on an individual fracture is organized by weekly postfracture time zones. For each time zone, the text discusses bone healing, physical examination, dangers, x-rays, weight bearing, range of motion, strength, functional activities, and gait/ambulation. Specific treatment strategies and rehabilitation protocols are then presented. More than 500 illustrations complement the text.
