Interprofessional Approaches for the Management of Chronic Diseases
Chronic diseases represent the leading causes of death and disability worldwide, with a subsequent enormous socioeconomic burden. The clinical management of these conditions often requires a multidisciplinary approach to treat the complex symptoms related to the disease and the associated problems. Different healthcare systems have been experimenting with interprofessional collaboration to enhance professional effectiveness and quality of practice among professionals, in an environment often constrained by resources. The optimum use of resources is made possible by interprofessional collaboration, which is described as an integrative cooperation of many health professions in different health...
Arthroplasty
New technologies, developments in implant design and advances in surgical technique have improved outcomes after joint replacement and decreased rate of complications. It is not a surprise that the number of arthroplasties increases steadily every year and nowadays more than one million patients undergo the procedure annually worldwide. This book is a sequel of a successful series dedicated to one of the fastest growing fields in orthopedics - arthroplasty. Aiming at dissemination of scientific research this book provides a profound overview of the recent evolution of technology and surgical techniques. New developments of implant design and current treatment strategies have been critically discussed by the contributing authors. The process of improving care for patients and standards of treatment requires straightforward access to up-to-date research and knowledge. The format of the publication allows easy and quick reference to shared ideas and concepts. We hope, that the current book will add significant contribution to the success of this endeavor.
Sensors for Gait, Posture, and Health Monitoring Volume 3
In recent years, many technologies for gait and posture assessments have emerged. Wearable sensors, active and passive in-house monitors, and many combinations thereof all promise to provide accurate measures of physical activity, gait, and posture parameters. Motivated by market projections for wearable technologies and driven by recent technological innovations in wearable sensors (MEMs, electronic textiles, wireless communications, etc.), wearable health/performance research is growing rapidly and has the potential to transform future healthcare from disease treatment to disease prevention. The objective of this Special Issue is to address and disseminate the latest gait, posture, and activity monitoring systems as well as various mathematical models/methods that characterize mobility functions. This Special Issue focuses on wearable monitoring systems and physical sensors, and its mathematical models can be utilized in varied environments under varied conditions to monitor health and performance
Fractures and Deformities of the Lower Extremity in Children and Adolescents: Etiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment
Lower extremity fractures and deformities in children and adolescents are a heterogeneous group of conditions caused by a variety of diseases, ranging from the hip joint to the foot. While some are caused by known trauma, others may be a consequence of developmental disorders or mutations in various genes. The presenting symptoms and signs may vary from cosmetic findings to the dysfunction of the limb, except fractures. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, there is still a lack of understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of many of these conditions. Furthermore, there are ongoing challenges in the diagnosis and treatment of rare or complex fractures and deformities of the lower extremity. To address these challenges, the present Research Topic aims to call for manuscripts describing unique cases with follow-up and treatment, as well as studies examining the outcome and prognosis. This will increase awareness of these conditions and lead to improved diagnosis and treatment for children and adolescents.
VIII Latin American Conference on Biomedical Engineering and XLII National Conference on Biomedical Engineering
This book gathers the joint proceedings of the VIII Latin American Conference on Biomedical Engineering (CLAIB 2019) and the XLII National Conference on Biomedical Engineering (CNIB 2019). It reports on the latest findings and technological outcomes in the biomedical engineering field. Topics include: biomedical signal and image processing; biosensors, bioinstrumentation and micro-nanotechnologies; biomaterials and tissue engineering. Advances in biomechanics, biorobotics, neurorehabilitation, medical physics and clinical engineering are also discussed. A special emphasis is given to practice-oriented research and to the implementation of new technologies in clinical settings. The book provides academics and professionals with extensive knowledge on and a timely snapshot of cutting-edge research and developments in the field of biomedical engineering.
Advances in Surgical and Medical Specialties
The pace and sophistication of advances in medicine in the past two decades have been truly breathtaking. This has necessitated a growing need for comprehensive references that highlight the current issues in specific sectors of medicine. Keeping this in mind, each volume in the Current Issues in Medicine series is a stand‐alone text that provides a broad survey of various critical topics in a focused area of medicine—all accomplished in a user-friendly yet interconnected format. However, unlike other series on medicine or medical texts, this series focuses on current trends, perspectives, and issues in medicine that are central to healthcare delivery in the 21st century. Medical practit...
The Neurobiology, Physiology, and Psychology of Pain
The Neurobiology, Physiology and Psychology of Pain focuses on bettering readers' understanding of acute and chronic pain. Featuring chapters on neurotransmitters, pharmacology, and brain imaging, this volume discusses, in detail, the mechanisms of pain and experimental studies undertaken to better understand the pathways involved. The translational work in this area has applicability for neurologists, anesthesiologists, pharmacologists, and anyone working in the intersection of these areas. This volume is integral for anyone interested in the molecular underpinnings of pain at every level. - Provides comprehensive coverage on a broad range of topics related to the neuroscience of pain - Contains an abstract, key facts, a mini dictionary of terms, and summary points to aid in understanding in each chapter - Features chapters on molecular pathways, imaging and a deep look at behavior associated with the experience of pain - Contains unique topics that will help readers navigate key areas for research and further clinical recommendations
