Introducción a la medicina clínica + Web
Author: F. Javier Laso Guzmán
Publisher: Elsevier España
ISBN: 8445821040
Category : Medical
Languages : es
Pages : 623
Book Description
Segunda edición totalmente actualizada de esta obra en la que se exponen todos los aspectos teóricos que contempla la Fisiopatología y Semiología, con un enfoque especialmente didáctico para que el alumno pueda iniciarse en la actividad clínica acorde con la reforma de Bolonia. En el nuevo título, que refleja mejor los contenidos de la obra, se ha eliminado la denominación de Patología General, ya que es un concepto en desuso y confuso en relación a la bibliografía internacional. Se mantiene el título "Introducción a la medicina clínica". Actualmente, no existe ningún texto en el que se estudien los problemas clínicos más habituales en la práctica médica siguiendo un enfoque razonado dirigido a alumnos de pregrado. La obra consta de diez partes: la primera comprende los conocimientos generales aplicables a cualquiera de los apartados y sistemas del organismo; en las nueve partes restantes, se aplican los conocimientos básicos a la patología específica de los diversos órganos y sistemas, tomando como referencia fundamental los síndromes, no enfermedades concretas. La bibliografía se presenta al final de cada sección en dos apartados: lecturas recomendadas y recursos en Internet. Lo más destacado de cada capítulo se resume al final del mismo en un conjunto de puntos clave. Entre las novedades de esta edición, se incluye una nueva parte acerca de los problemas clínicos ejemplares, en la que el autor introduce al lector y alumno en la medicina y la práctica clínicas, exponiéndose 30 de los problemas clínicos más habituales junto con su explicación razonada. Asimismo, se ha actualizado la iconografía, incluyéndose nuevas figuras y tablas. El libro dará acceso a contenidos complementarios online enfocados a la práctica del estudiante en habilidades clínicas: un capítulo electrónico en el que se exponen nociones básicas de biología celular y molecular, pilares de la medicina actual; interpretación de los 30 casos clínicos ejemplares; 275 preguntas de autoevaluación de elección múltiple, con razonamiento de la respuesta correcta; 15 algoritmos de diagnóstico diferencial acompañados de una introducción; recursos en Internet, cuyo objetivo es aportar una ayuda para ampliar conocimientos y resolver dudas concretas; y una selección actualizada de la bibliografía fundamental referida a cada parte del texto. La obra se dirige fundamentalmente al alumno de Medicina, dado que aborda los aspectos preclínicos imprescindibles impartidos en el primer ciclo de la carrera y que permitirán al estudiante introducirse en la medicina clínica. Texto actualizado con un enfoque didáctico/práctico para la iniciación en la actividad clínica. Se estudian los problemas clínicos habituales en la práctica médica, siguiendo un enfoque razonado. Como novedad, incorpora 30 problemas clínicos ejemplares y totalmente razonados. Incluye acceso online a contenidos complementarios para la adquisición de habilidades clínicas.

Nutrition Education in U.S. Medical Schools
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309035872
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 152
Book Description
As the general public has become more aware of advances in nutrition, consumer demands for advice on matters of diet and disease have grown. This book offers recommendations to upgrade what were found to be largely inadequate nutrition programs in U.S. medical schools in order that health professionals be better qualified to advise and treat their patients. A comprehensive study of one-third of American 4-year undergraduate medical schools provided information on the current status of nutrition programs at each school. Conclusions were drawn and recommendations made from analysis of this gathered information. Questions examined in this volume include: Has medical education kept pace with advances in nutrition science? Are medical students equipped to convey sound nutritional advice to their patients? What strategies are needed to initiate and sustain adequate teaching of nutrition in medical schools?

International Handbook of Research in Medical Education
Author: Geoffrey R. Norman
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9781402004667
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 492
Book Description
The International Handbook of Research in Medical Education is a review of current research findings and contemporary issues in health sciences education. The orientation is towards research evidence as a basis for informing policy and practice in education. Although most of the research findings have accrued from the study of medical education, the Handbook will be useful to teachers and researchers in all health professions and others concerned with professional education. The Handbook comprises 33 chapters organized into six sections: Research Traditions, Issues in Learning, The Educational Continuum, Instructional Strategies, Assessment, and Implementing the Curriculum. The authors are internationally recognized authorities in medical education, who have all made substantial contributions to this literature. The research orientation of the Handbook makes this work an invaluable resource to researchers and scholars, and should help practitioners to identify research to place their educational decisions on a sound empirical footing.
