The sixth edition provides practical, concise information on all aspects of intensive care. Written in a clear and accessible style and now for the first time presented in colour throughout, this book enables the user to manage a patient in an ICU setting effectively without recourse to large text/reference works or specialized monographs. This thoroughly revised and updated edition reflects the best and most current practice from leading centres in Australia, the UK and Western Europe. Information on management and treatment of conditions is balanced by pathophysiological and pharmacological background. This is not just a "cook book" of procedures. It provides all of the essential information for candidates wishing to pass professional examinations. Addition of colour throughout to highlight summary boxes, tables, charts and flow diagrams.Will make key information more accessible, easier and faster to retrieve. Pitfalls in treatment and management emphasized in each chapter.Providers the user with expert advice on practical issues that will be encountered on a day-to-day basis in the ICU. Keeps the user abreast of the latest developments in diagnosis and management.
Die Veränderungen im Gesundheitswesen bewirken einen enormen Druck auf die Krankenhäuser, so effizient wie möglich zu arbeiten. Das Praxishandbuch für die Funktionsdienste OP und Anästhesie unterstützt Pflegende, damit sie den neuen Anforderungen gerecht werden können. Die Operationsabteilung ist mit Personaleinsatz und kostenintensivem Materialbedarf der betriebswirtschaftlich teuerste Bereich der Krankenhäuser. Bei einem chirurgisch versorgten Patienten entstehen allein 30% der Gesamtkosten im OP. Damit entscheidet die Leistungsfähigkeit des OP-Bereiches wesentlich den finanziellen Erfolg eines Krankenhauses im DRG-System. Um Kosten zu senken, müssen Schnittstellen zu "Nahtstellen" werden. Dies ist besonders im Bereich der standardisierten Operationen möglich – und OP- und Anästhesiepflegepersonal muss sich daher interdisziplinär weiterbilden.
This monograph will bring out the state-of-the-art advances in the dynamics of cholesterol transport and will address several important issues that pertain to oxidative stress and inflammation. The book is divided into three major sections. The book will offer insights into the roles of specific cytokines, inflammation, and oxidative stress in atherosclerosis and is intended for new researchers who are curious about atherosclerosis as well as for established senior researchers and clinicians who would be interested in novel findings that may link various aspects of the disease.
This book marries stem cell biology, tissue engineering, and regenerative biology into a single, interdisciplinary volume. The chapters also explore embryonic stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, cardiovascular regeneration, skeletal development, inflammation, polymeric biomaterials, neural injury, cartilage regeneration, regeneration in ambystoma, models for regeneration using salamander and zebrafish, and more. The volume also discusses recent advances and their potential in developing future therapies. Innovations in Molecular Mechanisms and Tissue Engineering combines perspectives from the biomedical, bioengineering, and medical fields to present a cutting-edge, multifaceted picture of the tissue engineering and regenerative medicine fields. This installment of Springer’s Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine series is ideal for scientists, clinicians, and researchers in the fields of stem cell biology, regenerative medicine, biomedical engineering, and tissue engineering.
Für eine erfolgreiche Vorbereitung auf die Prüfung! Das Buch führt Prüflinge der Fachweiterbildung im Operationsdienst und Operationstechnische Assistenten (OTA) durch eine strukturierte und zeiteffektive Prüfungsvorbereitung. Zu allen prüfungsrelevanten Themen werden Fragen gestellt. Durch die Vielfalt an Übungen z.B. Lückentexte, Bildbeschriftungen, Definitionen, Beschreibungen, Wahr/Falsch-Fragen und Multiple Choice-Fragen erhält der Leser Abwechslung im Lernen und Wiederholen. Die Fragen sind nach den Kapiteln des „OP-Handbuch“, dem Standardwerk der OP-Fachpflege, geordnet. Dadurch wird das langfristige Behalten des Wissens gefördert. Außerdem ist ein gezieltes Lernen zu einzelnen Themengebieten möglich, die vertieft oder nachgeschlagen werden möchten. Der Lösungsteil umfasst alle Antworten und bietet eine schnelle Lernkontrolle. Das „Prüfungswissen“ und das „OP-Handbuch“ sind als Duo unschlagbar in der Begleitung zum erfolgreichen Abschluss für Fachpflegekräfte und OTAs. Aber auch erfahrenen Fachpflegenden ist es für einen Wissenscheck, den Wiedereinstieg oder die Praxisanleitung bestens geeignet.
It has become amply clear that all live forms on Earth are the products of the constituent genes expressed under the influence of continuously changing natural environment. By the same token, gene expression is known to be modified by our (or by the modern) environment inclusive of factors such as gravity, altitude, temperature, atmospheric pressure and air quality, physical conditioning as well as nutrition and/or lifestyle. Life would not survive without recruiting endogenous adaptive mechanisms responsive to challenging environmnetal factors, Biology of adaptation as well as application of this knowledge has been discussed in both health and disease conditions such as cardiac ischemia and cardiomyopathies, stroke, dementia, Alzheimer's, cancer, metal toxicity, etc. The book will be of great interest to experimental biologists and health professionals dealing with benefits and failures of physiological and pathophysiological adaptations. It will also serve as an important source of information for young scientists, postdocs and students.
