Book Description
"The NICU Primer for Pharmacists is a book for all pharmacists practicing in a facility with a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) or treating pediatric patients in an adult ICU. The purpose of this book would be to provide foundational knowledge for students or residents on a neonatal rotation or taking a pediatrics elective, as well as for those pharmacists caring for NICU patients without NICU specialty training, such as those staffing in an adult hospital that contains a NICU. This book includes topic areas that are often only minimally covered in pharmacy school, leading this subject to be a difficult practice area for individuals unfamiliar with the population. This book will be a go-to resource for individuals to better understand complex NICU topics"--

Languages : en
Pages : 1112
Book Description
'This new edition of Clinical Pharmacy and Therapeutics was really very helpful when I was doing an MSc course in Advancing Pharmacy Practice and it was really very helpful in all the clinical diseases I have to read for my PBL. I also used it as one of my most reliable reference books for the in-course simulation ward rounds and other clinical case studies. It is a great book to have as a practising clinical or hospital pharmacist or even community pharmacist. It will also be of great use to anyone doing a course in pharmacotherapy. This book will always be of use to you throughout your studentship or when practising after graduation. It is also more portable than most other pharmacotherapy textbooks with the same amount of information.' Now in its sixth edition, this best-selling, multi-disciplinary textbook continues to draw on the skills of pharmacists, clinicians and nurses to present optimal drug regimens. The authors integrate an understanding of the disease processes with an appreciation of the pathophysiological processes, clinical pharmacy and the evidence base. Each chapter is co-written by a pharmacist and a clinician, and each chapter begins with key points and ends with cases to test understanding. The sixth edition is now on StudentConsult for the first time, giving online access to the full text. - Key points boxes at the beginning of each chapter - Case-study boxes throughout the chapters - Each chapter co-written by a pharmacist and a clinician - In-depth treatment of therapeutics to support pharmaceutical prescribing - Logical order and format: key points, epidemiology, aetiology, disease, clinical manifestations, investigations and treatment, drugs used in treatment. - Dosage reference sources given where appropriate, along with useful websites and further reading for each chapter. - New co-editor, Karen Hodson - Over 10 new authors - Now in 4-colour - On StudentConsult for the first time - New chapter on Dementia - Many new and revised illustrations - Chapters revised to include advances in therapeutics and changes to dose regimens and licensed indications - Updated case studies

Best and Safe Practices in Different Contexts of Neonatal Care
Author: R. Mauricio Barría
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 0854660984
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
The field of neonatal care has been a long-standing concern within the broader field of child health, given the crucial role the neonatal stage plays in the development of individuals. While many of the most effective practices in neonatal care have been widely disseminated across maternal and childcare units globally, cultural and social differences, as well as the availability of resources, necessitate the adaptation of these practices to the specific contexts of each place. This book discusses a range of crucial topics related to neonatal care over two sections. It includes ten chapters that address pertinent issues in neonatal care. The book’s objective is to contribute to the clinical work of health teams in neonatal units by sharing content and lessons for efficient and safe care, both from the global context of the configuration of the therapeutic environment to specific topics of usual care. The chapters have been developed by specialists in neonatology from different countries, and through them, they hope to share part of their experience.

Publisher: Academic Press
ISBN: 0323914268
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 672
Book Description
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. - Provides multi-authored chapters by renowned experts in their field - Includes examples for pharmacy and health services and others that are transcendent of medical care - Covers key research points, valid and invalid assumptions, pitfalls to avoid, applications, and further inquiry
