Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il manuale completo di Cure Palliative Molti obiettivi terapeutici sono stati conseguiti nello scorso decennio grazie ai progressi compiuti dalla medicina palliativa. Essa è considerata una disciplina integrativa, che non viene applicata solo alla fine dell'esistenza, non combatte solo i dolori, non è a disposizione unicamente dei malati oncologici e non è esercitata soltanto da medici ma da un team multiprofessionale. Le "Cure Palliative" non sono più compito esclusivo di specialisti coinvolti quando la storia personale dei pazienti volge al termine ma rappresentano un patrimonio di pensiero e di comportamenti da integrare anche nella medicina curativa, nell'assistenza di base e nelle cure infermieristiche. Esse tendono a modellare in misura globale e preventiva la qualità di vita del paziente, a rafforzare la sua autonomia e a tutelare la dignità della persona nell'ora della maggiore vulnerabilità. Questo manuale contribuisce all'applicazione delle più recenti conoscenze della medicina palliativa nella pratica clinica quotidiana. Si orienta sia sui sintomi che influiscono sulla qualità di vita che sull'approccio essenziale alle situazioni che rendono necessario l'intervento della medicina palliativa. Quale terza edizione totalmente rielaborata e ampliata per incarico della Lega svizzera contro il cancro e di palliative ch, il manuale rappresenta il compendio delle esperienze della medicina palliativa svizzera.

Book excerpt: Series Editors: Moira Stewart, Judith Belle Brown and Thomas R Freeman As the population in western cultures ages, more people suffer chronic, ultimately life-limiting diseases and medical professionals need to be equipped to cope with the ever growing pressure of palliative care.

With international, evidence-based contributions, the book suggests practical and challenging ways to care for the dying. It is ideal for all healthcare professionals working in palliative care, General Practitioners and medicine and healthcare students.

Information is provided in an accessible, user-friendly way and covers a wide range of physical and non-physical symptom management.

This practical resource, designed to provoke contemplative professional development, and enhance learning will be essential reading for nursing and medical practitioners, and other professionals who support patients in their homes, in care homes, and in hospital.

Book Synopsis Research methods in palliative care by : Julia M Addington-Hall
Download or read book Research methods in palliative care written by Julia M Addington-Hall and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-06-07 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palliative and end of life care are concerned with the physical, social, psychological and spiritual care of people with advanced disease. It currently has a poorly developed research base, but the need to improve this is increasingly recognised. One of the reasons for the lack of research - and the variable quality of the research that is undertaken - is the difficulty of conducting research with very ill and bereaved people. Standard and well-established research methods may need to be adapted to work in this context. This means that existing research methods textbooks may be of limited use to palliative care practitioners seeking to do research for the first time, or to more experienced researchers wanting to apply their knowledge in palliative care settings. This research methods textbook is the first to be written specifically for palliative care. It has been edited by four experienced palliative care academics with acknowledged expertise and international reputations in this field. It encompasses methods used in both clinical and health services research in palliative care, with sections on clinical, epidemiological, survey and qualitative research, as well as a section covering skills needed in any research project. Each chapter provides readers with an up to date overview of the research method in question, an understanding of its applicability to palliative care and of the particular challenges of using it in this setting. It is essential reading for all palliative care researchers.

Book excerpt: "Textbook of Palliative Care is a comprehensive, clinically relevant and state-of-the art book, aimed at advancing palliative care as a science, a clinical practice and as an art. Palliative care has been part of healthcare for over fifty years but we still find ourselves having to explain its nature and practice to colleagues and to the public in general. Healthcare education and training has been slow to recognize the vital importance of ensuring that all practitioners have a good understanding of what is involved in the care of people with serious or advanced illnesses and their families. However, the science of palliative care is advancing and our understanding concerning many aspects of palliative care is developing rapidly. The book is divided into separate sections for ease of use. Over 100 chapters written by experts in their given fields provide up-to-date information on a wide range of topics of relevance to those providing care towards the end of life no matter what the disease may be. We present a global perspective on contemporary and classic issues in palliative care with authors from a wide range of disciplines involved in this essential aspect of care. The Textbook includes sections addressing aspects such as symptom management and care provision, organization of care in different settings, care in specific disease groups, palliative care emergencies, ethics, public health approaches and research in palliative care. This Textbook will be of value to practitioners in all disciplines and professions where the care of people approaching death is important, specialists as well as non-specialists, in any setting where people with serious advanced illnesses are residing. It is also an important resource for researchers, policy-and decision-makers at national or regional levels. Neither the science nor the art of palliative care will stand still so we aim to keep this Textbook updated as the authors find new evidence and approaches to care. ." - Prové de l'editor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A la préoccupation de traiter la maladie, la médecine se soucie aujourd'hui d'apporter des soins aux mourants, à partir d'unités spécialisées en Soins Palliatifs. L'intérêt scientifique pour les moyens de guérir s'est déplacé vers la recherche des voies les moins traumatisantes du mourir. Parmi elle, l'euthanasie et l'assistance au suicide se sont révélées les plus sujettes à réflexions et débats. Ainsi se posent les questions de la "méthodologie" du mourir et celle de l'organisme ou de la personne chargée d'exécuter cette décision. [Ed.].
