Download or read book Humanistic Asthma Outcomes in Patients Recieving Pharmaceutical Care written by Nadir Kheir and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the first researchers to specifically use the term 'outcome' in the context of health care was Donabedian, who defined health outcomes as 'a change in patients' current and future health status that can be attributed to antecedent health care' (Donabedian,1980). Until recently, methods adopted to assess quality of life as an outcome of health were described in non-specific terms, and reflect superficial understanding of this vital outcome. Fortunately, a great deal of advancement has been made in constructing instruments with emphasis on their accuracy as outcome measurement tools. This dissertation describes the work conducted to asses the psychometric performance and measurement properties (in terms of validity, reliability and responsiveness) of an asthma-specific outcome measure in New Zealand (the Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (AQLQ)). The validation process was conducted using pharmaceutical care provided by trained pharmacists as an intervention aiming at improving asthma outcomes, specifically the patients' quality of life.

Download or read book Asthma written by Sebastian L. Johnston and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asthma is one of the most important diseases affecting our society. It is an extremely common condition that reduces quality of life, and acute exacerbations can be life-threatening. It affects a disproportionate number of children. With the overwhelming volume of research being carried out in this field specialists need a method of keeping up-to-date with current opinion. As with the other 'Challenges' books, 'Challenges in Asthma' is aimed at hospital specialists and therefore assumes a certain level of knowledge about the disease. It builds on this by discussing only areas of controversy and uncertainty in both the basic understanding of asthma and its management. An international author list will provide stimulating debate with, and ultimately draw some conclusions from, existing data which will benefit readers in their day-to-day practice.

Download or read book Asthma in the Workplace, Fourth Edition written by Jean-Luc Malo and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-05-10 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Occupational factors are responsible for a large percentage of cases of asthma in adults of working age. Any irritant generated at high concentrations can cause occupational asthma, and early diagnosis is critical because cure is still possible at this stage. This latest edition of Asthma in the Workplace reflects the rapid pace of discovery and research in workplace asthma that has taken place in recent years. This Fourth Edition retains the international flavor of prior editions, with contributions from editors and contributors from around the world. Several chapters commence with clinical histories and workplace scenarios relevant to the focus of the chapter, making it particularly germane for primary care providers to develop skills in early recognition of the disease. Topics discussed include: Definitions, historical background, epidemiology, genetics, pathophysiology, and animal models Guidelines for assessing the worker and the workplace, and proposed guidelines for management, including compensation aspects Medicolegal aspects, prevention, and surveillance Detailed information about specific agents, including a variety of high- and low-molecular weight agents Other types of work-related asthma conditions, such as irritant-induced asthma, eosinophilic bronchitis, and occupational rhinitis This new edition has been significantly restructured and places a greater emphasis on the clinical aspects of management and treatment. This heightened focus on practical considerations makes it a truly comprehensive, hands-on resource for practitioners and researchers in this fast-moving field.

Download or read book Asthma and Rhinitis written by William W. Busse and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-30 with total page 1021 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of this highly acclaimed text has been extensively revised and greatly expanded to reflect the considerable advances made in our understanding of the mechanisms of asthma and rhinitis. Containing the contributions of 242 experts of international standing, presented in 133 chapters, Asthma and Rhinitis provides an up-to-date, authoritative reference for both the clinician and scientist. The global approach given in this book mirrors the universal approach to the understanding of allergic disease. The editors have carried out a thorough and radical revision of the content by adding 6 new sections and 44 new chapters. Most of this expansion is due to greatly increased coverage of the clinical aspects of asthma, with new sections on childhood asthma and on drug treatment (each drug class has its own chapter). Also, the expansion of research into the genetic basis of asthma has necessitated a whole new section on Genetics, comprising some six chapters. There are also new chapters on adult-onset asthma and the relationship of asthma to sinusitis. A new section on Asthma in Special Circumstances includes chapters on asthma in pregnancy, asthma and surgery, asthma in the elderly and asthma in the context of critical care. In bringing the Second Edition fully up to date, the book has inevitably increased in size, and is now presented in two volumes. The second edition of Asthma and Rhinitis will continue the tradition of its predecessor of providing an up-to-the-minute reference for all those involved in the management of, and research into, asthma and rhinitis.

This book was released on 2022-05-10 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging methods, as well as best practices in well-used methods, in pharmacy are of great benefit to researchers, graduate students, graduate programs, residents and fellows also in other health science areas. Researchers require a text to assist in the design of experiments to address seemingly age-old problems. New interventions are needed to improve medication adherence, patients’ lived experiences in health care, provider-patient relationships, and even various facets of pharmacogenomics. Advances in systems re-engineering can optimize health care practitioners’ roles. Contemporary Research Methods in Pharmacy and Health Services includes multi-authored chapters by renowned experts in their field. Chapters cover examples in pharmacy, health services and others transcendent of medical care, following a standardized format, including key research points; valid and invalid assumptions; pitfalls to avoid; applications; and further inquiry. This is a valuable resource for researchers both in academia and corporate R&D, primarily in pharmacy but also in health services, and other health disciplines. Social science researchers and government scientists can also benefit from the reading.
