  • Viel zu viel und doch zu wenig

    Ãœber- und Unterversorgung in der Medizin / Choosing Wisely
    • 1st Edition
    • Raimund Schmid
    • German
    Unser Gesundheitssystem bietet nur scheinbar eine optimale Versorgung. Wie schnell es gehen kann, in eine Fehlversorgung hineinzuschlittern, wird an vielen Beispielen deutlich: So werden wir hierzulande von einer wahren Antibiotikawelle überrollt. Alten Menschen werden häufig mit 12 Arzneimitteln und mehr pro Tag wahre Medikamentencocktail... verabreicht, obwohl zumeist auch gut die Hälfte ausreichen würde. Die Deutschen sind auch noch Weltmeister beim Operieren: die Rate bei Schilddrüsen-OPs ist beispielsweise 4- bis 6-mal höher als in vergleichbaren westlichen Ländern. Was jedoch in Praxis und Klinik immer mehr fehlt, ist Zeit – Zeit für Gespräche mit den Patienten. Viel zu viel und doch zu wenig wendet sich an Experten und Patienten gleichermaßen. Ausgehend von konkreten und zum Teil aufrüttelnden Fallbeispielen wird faktenreich gezeigt, welchen Herausforderungen sich alle Beteiligten ‒ Ärzte, Patienten, aber auch die Politik ‒ stellen müssen, um einer solchen Fehlversorgung entgegenzuwirken.

  • Pharmacology and Pharmacotherapeutics, 26e

    • 26th Edition
    • RS Satoskar + 2 more
    • English
    This book strengthens the scientific knowledge base and promotes rational thinking among students The Medical Council of India (MCI) has introduced a competency-based curriculum in 2019, which not only lays emphasis on integration with clinical and pre-clinical subjects but also clearly states subject competencies and defines domains and levels to be achieved for each of them. In addition, it is clinically oriented and gives due importance to the self-directed learning. The duration of teaching for the subject of Pharmacology in the new curriculum has been reduced to one year with additional dedicated time to revisit it in the subsequent years. This 26th edition of Pharmacology and Pharmacotherapeutics has been revised considerably to match the demands of the new curriculum. Right from its conception, this book has used an integrated approach intertwining current knowledge of pathophysiology of the disease, pharmacology of available drugs and strategies for medical management of diseases. We have made every attempt to provide up-to-date information about the drugs while focussing on the aspects relevant to their use in clinical practice.
