Schizophrenie und Gewalt (Wiener Schriftenreihe für Forensische Psychiatrie)

für 37.69€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Schizophrenie ist wohl die psychische Erkrankung, die in der Bevölkerung unter anderem aufgrund der medialen Berichterstattung am häufigsten mit dem Thema Gewalt assoziiert wird. Deutlich weniger präsent ist jedoch die Tatsache, dass Schizophreniekranke häufiger Opfer der Aggression Dritter werden oder durch die eigene Hand den Tod finden. Der neue Band der Wiener Schriftenreihe für Forensische Psychiatrie gibt einen breiten Überblick über alle Bereiche der Gewalt von und gegen schizophrene Menschen sowie über die gesellschaftlichen und gesundheitspolitischen Rahmenbedingungen, die in den letzten 20 Jahren zu einem deutlichen Anstieg der Einweisungen dieser Patienten in den Maßregelvollzug geführt haben. ····· 101761190

Trattato di Dermoscopia

für 83.35€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
La dermoscopia ha senza dubbio spalancato una nuova dimensione nella diagnostica per immagini dermatologica, che si pone tra la macroscopia e la microscopia vera e propria. Metodica valida e, in mani esperte, affidabile, essa permette di superare i limiti fisici della tradizionale esplorazione della cute ad occhio nudo. Rispetto a quest`ultima, la dermoscopia è infatti in grado di incrementare significativamente l`accuratezza diagnostica nei confronti delle lesioni pigmentate cutanee e, segnatamente, del melanoma maligno, specie nelle fasi precoci del suo sviluppo. Tuttavia, sia il complesso corpo dottrinario, agitato da continui tentativi di revisione critica, sia lo strumentario tecnico, che paga inevitabilmente il delicato passaggio alla digitalizzazione dell`immagine, fanno di questa metodica una disciplina ancora in piena fase di sviluppo, della quale non è pertanto possibile delineare definitivamente limiti e potenzialità. Questo Trattato di Dermoscopia si prefigge il compito di fornire, delle tante nozioni sin qui raccolte, una lettura quanto più coerente ed univoca, che sappia armonizzare le molteplici, talvolta contrastanti interpretazioni fornite da Autori e Scuole diverse, alla luce di un`esperienza personale più che decennale. Oltre 200 tra immagini e rappresentazioni schematiche fanno da corollario ad una trattazione approfondita e speculativa delle tematiche affrontate. Particolare spazio viene riservato ai fondamenti biofisici della metodica, la cui conoscenza si rivela indispensabile per un`intima comprensione dei fenomeni che determinano le molteplici espressioni della semeiotica dermoscopica. Grande risalto viene conferito anche agli aspetti istologici, che trovano in particolari sezioni tangenziali la rappresentazione più suggestiva delle correlazioni tra rilievi dermoscopici ed istomorfologici. Pressoché inedita ed estremamente attuale, infine, la disamina dei problemi medico-legali relativi ad una metodica diagnostica sempre più diffusa negli ambulatori dermatologici. ····· 1017676389

Handbook of Laboratory Health and Safety Measures

für 87.22€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
During the past two decades, many books, governmental reports and regu lations on safety measures against chemieals, fire, microbiological and radioactive hazards in laboratories have been published from various coun tries. These topics have also been briefly discussed in books on laboratory planning and management. The application ofvarious scientific instruments based on different ionizing and non-ionizing radiations have brought new safety problems to the laboratory workers of today, irrespective of their scientific disciplines, be they medicine, natural or life sciences. However, no comprehensive laboratory handbook dealing with aIl these hazards, some of which are recently introduced, had so far been available in a single volume. Therefore, it was thought worthwhile to publish this Handbook on safety and health measures for laboratories, with contributions from several experts on these subjects. As this second edition of the Handbook, like the first edition, is a multiauthor volume, some duplication in conte nt among chapters is unavoidable in order to maintain the context of a chapter as weIl as make each chapter complete. An attempt has also been made to maintain the central theme, which is how to work in a laboratory with maximum possible environmental safety. ····· 1017675886

Alexia: Diagnosis, Treatment and Theory

für 75.75€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This book is a comprehensive review of the main acquired disorders of reading: hemianopic, pure and central alexia. The authors review the diagnostic criteria for each of the different types of disorder, and the efficacy of the therapeutic studies that have attempted to remediate them.

Focal brain injury caused by stroke and brain tumors are discussed in depth as are the effects of dementia on reading. This book starts with a chapter on normal reading, followed by chapters on hemianopic alexia, pure alexia and central alexia, each structured in the same way, with: a description of the condition a historical review of cases to date psychophysics consideration of the causative lesions evidence from functional imaging studies on patients and, most importantly, a review of the evidence base for treating each condition. Finally, there is a chapter on how patient data has informed how we think about reading. Alexia: Diagnosis, Treatment and Theory is aimed at neuropsychologists (both experimental and clinical), neurologists, speech therapists and others who deal with patients whose reading has been affected by an acquired brain injury, as well as interested students studying language disorders. ····· 1017675808

Practical Approach to Peripheral Arterial Chronic Total Occlusions

für 66.15€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
A practical, highly illustrative and easy to read reference for interventional cardiologists, vascular surgeons, cardiac/endovascular catheterization laboratory personnel, interventional radiologists, technical staff, industry professionals, investigators, and researchers on peripheral arterial CTO interventions. Peripheral CTO lesions are present in nearly 50% of all peripheral arterial disease (PAD) endovascular interventions. There is tremendous growth in the performance and learning of peripheral arterial CTO procedures. There are several ongoing physician courses and many others that are being prepared however, there is a significant lack of standardized selection, strategies, techniques and equipment necessary to achieve a high degree of reproducible success with low complication rates during the performance of these complex and technically challenging endovascular procedures. The book is not an academic `tour de force` description of the topic but rather a practical one with many illustrations and step-by-step explanations of the various procedure steps, what can go wrong, and troubleshooting. Heavy use of illustrations throughout limit the text to what is necessary to convey the message, and the book is supported by online case catalogues and board review questions. The book also includes never-before-published information on new technology. ····· 1017675719

A Pattern Approach to Lymph Node Diagnosis

für 159.51€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
While a pattern approach to diagnosis is taught and practiced with almost every other tissue or organ in the body, the lymph node remains a mystery to most residents starting out in pathology and those pathologists with limited experience in the area.A Pattern Approach to Lymph Node Diagnosis demonstrates that a systematic approach to lymph node examination can be achieved through recognition of morphological patterns produced by different disease processes. It presents a combination of knowledge-based assessment and pattern recognition for diagnosis covering the major primary neoplastic and non neoplastic diseases and metastatic tumors in lymph nodes. This volume demonstrates that lymph node compartments can be recognized histologically especially with the aid of immunohistological markers and how this knowledge can be employed effectively to localize and identify pathological changes in the different compartments in order to facilitate histological diagnosis. It also defines histological features that, because of their pathological occurrence in lymph nodes, are useful pointers to specific diagnoses or disease processes. The volume is organized in accordance with the primary pattern of presentation of each diagnostic entity. Differential diagnosis is discussed and each diagnostic entity is accompanied by color illustrations that highlight the diagnostic features. Immunohistochemistry, clinical aspects, relevant cytogenetics and molecular information of each entity is provided by authors who are experts in lymphoproliferative diseases. An algorithmic approach to diagnosis is adopted at the end of each section by listing a set of questions that help to consider diagnostic entities that can present with the morphological features observed. A Pattern Approach to Lymph Node Diagnosis will be of great utility to residents and fellows in pathology and general pathologists making first hand lymph node diagnoses as well as to hematologists and physicians who treat patients with lymphoprolifeative diseases. ····· 1017674019

Economics and Preventing Healthcare Acquired Infection

für 29.93€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Reasons for Writing This Book The published literature on the economic appraisal of healthcare acquired infection (HAI) is described by phrases such as: `With so many virtues of the cost-benefit approach identified, it is perhaps puzzling why greater use of economic appraisal has not been made in the area of infection control` [1]`Clinicians should partner with economists and policy analysts to expand and improve the economic evidence available` [2]`the quality of economic evaluations should be increased to inform decision makers and clinicians` [3]`The economics of preventing hospital-acquired infections is most often described in general terms. The underlying concepts and mechanisms are rarely made explicit but should be understood for research and policy-making` [4] The aim of this book is to describe how economics should be used to inform decisi- making about infection control. Our motivation stems from the previous quotes which show economics is being used within the infection control community, but not to its full potential. Our expectation is that you do not have any formal training in economic analyses. Economic analyses have been used for many decades to argue for increased funding for hospital infection-control. In 1957, Clarke [5] investigated bed wastage in British hospitals due to Staphylococcus aureus in patient`s wounds. She concluded .... `the average length of stay in hospital of patients whose wounds were infected with Staph. ····· 1017673971
