Download or read book Handbook of Psychotherapy in Cancer Care written by Maggie Watson and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-05-03 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book by international experts in psycho-oncology has arisen from the teaching academies offered by the International Psycho-oncology Society. It distills the wisdom and experience from the training manuals dedicated to individual psychological therapies and combines them into an accessible handbook for clinicians in cancer care today. The editors have brought together leading researchers and therapists, who provide accounts of the prominent models of psychotherapy currently being used in cancer care, the key themes they address and the essential techniques needed to apply each approach successfully. Helpful clinical illustrations are woven throughout the book to make overt the strategies found in each model. Provides practical guidance about how to deliver a range of individual, group, couple and family interventions that have proven utility in cancer care. Describes comprehensively each model of psychotherapy as taught by experts delivering the International Psycho-Oncology Society’s Educational Academy on cancer care for patients and their families. Features practical suggestions on therapy delivery from the world’s leading proponents of each therapy. Serves as a valuable tool to assist teaching and to facilitate research into psychological interventions in oncology, palliative care and bereavement. Functions as a readily accessible resource for clinicians struggling to support someone effectively, through its provision of insight into the common challenges and traps that arise when providing patients with emotional support. This practical handbook will help not only psychiatrists, psychologists and social workers but also physicians, surgeons, general practitioners and nurses interested in better understanding and supporting the patients and families they care for.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The outstanding success of the First Edition and the expansion of our knowledge about cancer over the 5 years since its publication have led to the decision to publish a Second Edition which has been fully revised, rewritten and enlarged by the addition of several sections. The First Edition was translated into Italian, Japanese, Polish, and Serbo-Croat and it is expected that additional translations (French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, etc. ) will make this Second Edition a truly international basic cancer Manual. The Revision Committee is convinced that all students and general physicians should know: (a) the important basic aspects of cancer; (b) some details of the most common cancers; and ( c) a few important points about the less common cancers. An attempt has been made to strengthen Part I, General Aspects, which is considered to be the most important part of the Manual for the world's physicians. However, the most common cancers in one part of the world are not necessarily the same in other parts and it is planned to work with local groups to produce adaptations and translations as seem appropriate. In particular, the UICC is anxious to work with local, national, and international committees to help improve the educational experience of students and general physicians in the geographic areas in question. Regional Conferences held by the UICC in Latin America, Asia and the Middle East have resulted in initial plans to accomplish this aim.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There can be no doubt that a knowledge of cancer is becoming of increasing importance to doctors throughout the world. The changing patterns of disease incidence, following changes in living standards and public health services and in medical diagnosis and treatment, reveal the importance of neoplastic disorders as causes of morbidity and mortality. If doctors are to recognise these conditions at the earliest opportunity and advise on the treatment, they must be familiar not only with clinical appearances but with the scientific principles on which the management is based. These are so important that they must be assimilated during undergraduate medical education and become an integral part of the doctor's professional equipment. The clinical study of a neoplastic disorder has usually been related to its site of appearance in the body, and its treatment has been the concern of organ- or system-specialists. This has tended to obscure the fundamental principles of growth-disorder which are common to many varieties of tumor. A unified approach of clinical oncology can recognise common features and high-light diversity as a stimulus to further investigation. It is at the same time becoming increasingly recognised that neoplasia is a multidisciplinary problem, requiring the collaboration of many specialists: physicians, surgeons, radiotherapists, chemotherapists, pathologists, immunologists, epidemiologists, and many varieties of research worker. But the fate of the individual patient with cancer is often determined by the first doctor he consults, and this further emphasises the importance of sufficient education in oncology at all stages of medical training.

Modern care of those with blood or malignant disorders is very much a team effort. This book is designed to help our colleagues who have chosen to be Nurse Practitioners to have a quick reference guide to many of the common clinical conundrums encountered in clinical practice. It is supposed to help not only with the technical nuts and bolts but also to help handle the emotional trauma of this field as well.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Co-Authors Jack Saux M.D., Margaret Saux, Pilar Martinez Morrison R.Ph., & Melissa Pennebaker C.R.N.P. New Hematology/Oncology Nurse Practitioners are only expected to work like 12 people at once and only be one step at most behind their physician partners. While this is a ridiculous example it is all too often all too true. For better or for worse most Hematologists and Oncologists are way too busy. We really need the help of Nurse Practitioners to help our patients. Please do not think this belittles or under rates the help we need from our other staff. Modern care of those with blood or malignant disorders is very much a team effort. This book is published to help our colleagues who have chosen to be Nurse Practitioners to have a quick reference guide to many of the common clinical conundrums encountered in clinical practice. It is supposed to help not only with the technical nuts and bolts but also to help handle the emotional trauma of this field as well. It is not to replace the input of collaborating physicians.
