    • Inglés
    In a health care climate where patients are ever more demanding and resources increasingly difficult to access, it is a truism that stress is an inevitable part of the profession of the medical practitioner. Stressed doctors become ill and dissatisfied, and in consequence patients may also suffer. Eliminating a source of stress is acknowledged as the most effective approach to stress control, but this is not always a realistic option for doctors. This invaluable guide shows doctors how to effectively manage their stress, before they become distressed. The authors also acknowledge that doctors do not work in a social vacuum, and address the management, business and social positions doctors are expected to fulfil, in addition to their clinical role.De-stressing Doctors: a Self-management Guide will help every doctor to become their own stress manager by integrating stress control techniques into the day-to-day profession of medical practitioner.

    • Inglés
    More than 50% of people with cancer have radiotherapy at some time during their illness, yet their needs for supportive care have received little attention compared with the needs of patients undergoing other types of cancer treatment. Unlike other texts, which concentrate on the planning and delivery of radiotherapy, this book addresses the impact of treatment on the individual and the issues facing health carers who provide clinical and supportive care. Supportive care in radiotherapy integrates key aspects of assessment, physical and psychosocial morbidity and toxicity management, placing these in the physical, psychosocial and organisational context in which they occur. Patients' perspectives are used throughout the text to illustrate the physical and emotional experience of radiotherapy and the difficulties facing patients who are in transition through the system. New and innovative approaches to patient care are discussed as well as challenges facing radiotherapy practitioners today. Practical advice on the assessment and clinical management of acute and late side effects is provided. Critical reviews of the current evidence base are included, along with future directions for clinical research and development.Written by a multi-professional group of authors, this book is aimed primarily at nurses and therapy radiographers but is also relevant to hospital and community doctors and nurses who encounter patients before, during and after radiotherapy. The book will be suitable for undergraduates and postgraduates, as it relates current research findings and theory to the clinical practice environment, within the context of cancer care delivery in the 21st century.

  • Mind Maps in Pathology

    • 1 Edición
    • Peter Dervan + 1 más
    • Inglés
    This invaluable pathology study aid adopts the proven concept of Mind Mapping - invented by Tony Buzan - which results in increased confidence, saves precious studying time and gives the student a sense of achievement.Conventi... textbooks present information in such a way that the key words are not always obvious to the student. Research shows that the key words are important in learning as they create and reinforce learning pathways.The key words in this book are presented in the context of pathways which connect to form maps of each topic. The information on each topic is thus connected to provide a framework for revision and learning.Studies show that revision of key words creates and strengthens words associations and helps the brain to process further information on the topic faster. Psychologists call this effect the 'semantic prime'.The Mind Maps provide an overview of the subjects and are designed to 'prime' the brain to remember the information.
