Book Synopsis Social Lives of Medicines by : Susan Reynolds Whyte
Download or read book Social Lives of Medicines written by Susan Reynolds Whyte and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medicines are the core of treatment in biomedicine, as in many other medical traditions. As material things, they have social as well as pharmacological lives, with people and between people. They are tokens of healing and hope, as well as valuable commodities. Each chapter of this book shows drugs in the hands of particular actors: mothers in Manila, villagers in Burkina Faso, women in the Netherlands, consumers in London, market traders in Cameroon, pharmacists in Mexico, injectionists in Uganda, doctors in Sri Lanka, industrialists in India, and policymakers in Geneva. Each example is used to explore a different problem in the study of medicines, such as social efficacy, experiences of control, skepticism and cultural politics, commodification of health, the attraction of technology and the marketing of images and values. The book shows how anthropologists deal with the sociality of medicines, through their ethnography, their theorizing, and their uses of knowledge.

Download or read book The Hamilton Scales written by Per Bech and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ECNP) is a scientific and educational association which represents a variety of disciplines. The first ECNP congress took place in Copenhagen, May 1985, where a working group of European scientists within the field of psychopharmacology was elected to prepare a constituent ECNP congress in Brussels, 1987. Among the most active members of this group was Max Hamilton. At the second ECNP congress in Brussels Max Hamilton was elected as the first honorary member of the ECNP. When we received the message of his death we decided at once to arrange a Max Hamilton memorial symposium at the third ECNP congress, May 1989, in Gothenburg, Sweden. This monograph contains the proceedings of the Max Hamilton symposium which was chaired by the editors. The opening lecture of the third ECNP congress was a Max Hamilton lecture: "A life devoted to science in psychiatry" which was presented by Sir Martin Roth. It seemed obvious to include Sir Martin's lecture as the opening article of this monograph. Although G .E. Berrios was unable to participate in the ECNP congress we have found it logical to include his manuscript on "The Hamilton Depression Scale and the Numerical Description of the Symptoms of Depression" as another personal contribution to Max Hamilton and his rating scales.
Book Synopsis L'outil "mon traitement" pour améliorer l'observance médicamenteuse de la personne âgée by : Amandine Crocfer
Download or read book L'outil "mon traitement" pour améliorer l'observance médicamenteuse de la personne âgée written by Amandine Crocfer and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La prescription médicamenteuse chez la personne âgée est un enjeu de santé publique. La polymédication liée à la polypathologie est le premier facteur de risque de la iatrogénie médicamenteuse, qui est responsable de plus de 10% des hospitalisations du sujet âgé. Le mésusage des médicaments et le manque d'adhésion au traitement peuvent favoriser la survenue d'effets indésirables. Ils sont fréquents et graves chez la personne âgée mais sont en grande partie évitables. Afin d'améliorer l'observance des personnes âgées fragiles prises en charge par le RSG de Lille Hellemmes Lomme, un outil de présentation du traitement médicamenteux a été mis au point en partenariat avec un groupe de médecins généralistes du Nord Pas de Calais. Cet outil « Mon Traitement » récapitule la liste des médicaments ainsi que les données utiles à une prescription optimisée. Il est envoyé avec le courrier du RSG au médecin traitant qui, après validation, le remet au patient ou à son aidant au domicile pour la préparation et l'administration des médicaments. L'étude a pour objectif principal d'analyser la revue d'ordonnance faite par le RSG et secondairement d'évaluer la qualité de remplissage et d'établir un profil sociodémographique des patients pris en charge par le RSG. En deux ans, 244 outils « Mon Traitement » ont été complétés par les gériatres du RSG et adressés aux médecins traitants. Il apparaît que 72% des patients sont polymédiqués, dont 37% de médicaments prescrits inadaptés ; 98% présentent des facteurs de mauvaise observance. La population prise en charge par le RSG est représentative des patients fragiles, à risque d'effets iatrogènes médicamenteux. 57,8% des ordonnances contiennent une prescription de psychotropes (de 10,6% avec plus de 2 psychotropes). Après la revue d'ordonnance, on observe une baisse de prescription de 12% de médicaments inappropriés et de 2% de psychotropes. 63,5% des fiches sont considérées suffisamment remplies avec l'ensemble des données utiles. Cette étude révèle aussi que la démarche est difficile à poursuivre au long cours : le temps de remplissage est important, l'outil sous forme papier ne permet pas de mises à jour régulières et les fiches sont rarement retrouvées au domicile. Un logiciel informatisé intégrant l'outil est en cours de développement pour optimiser le partage d'informations entre les intervenants.
Download or read book World Malaria Report 2010 written by and published by . This book was released on 2011-04-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes information received from 106 malaria-endemic countries and from malaria control partners. It highlights continued progress made towards meeting international targets for malaria control to be achieved by 2010 and by 2015. International funds disbursed for malaria control increased from $200 million in 2004 to $1.5 billion in 2009. Since 2008, more than 289 million insecticide-treated mosquito nets have been delivered to sub-Saharan Africa, enough to protect three quarters of the 765 million persons at risk of the disease. Over the last decade, 11 countries in the Africa Region and 32 countries in other regions showed reductions of 50% or greater in either confirmed malaria cases or malaria admissions and deaths. Malaria control is making a major contribution to reducing mortality in children less than 5 years old and to attaining the health-related Millennium Development Goals.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Présentation de l'éditeur : "The interactions between law and culture in addressing the legal problems at the end of a life are currently being discussed in many countries. The discourse on this issue should be multidisciplinary, taking into account its legal, medical, ethical, philosophical and anthropological aspects. The concepts designed to manage the legal problems that occur when a life comes to an end are closely linked to the culture of each country. For this reason, countries with different cultural backgrounds have been selected for this comparative end-of-life study. In France, Germany and Italy, which have a continental legal system, the United Kingdom, which has a common law system, and India, the various religions and cultures exert an important influence on the modernisation of the legislation in this respect. The book deals with recent legislative changes and developments in the countries surveyed."
