    • English
    Endoscopic access to the small bowel has advanced significantly since the introduction of video capsule endoscopy and deep enteroscopy in early 2000. Other major advances have occurred in imaging modalities involving computed tomography and magnetic resonance studies. Due to these advances, the recent 2015 ACG guideline changed the terminology from “obscure” to “small bowel” bleeding because the majority of cases now can be found to have a small bowel source. The improvements in technology have advanced our ability to visualized vascular findings, inflammatory lesions, and small bowel neoplasms. Articles in this issue are devoted to these improvements in technology.

    • 2nd Edition
    • December 1, 2016
    • Anne-Marie Dubois
    • French
    L’art-thérapie connaît depuis une trentaine d’années un réel engouement, particulièrement au sein des institutions de soins. Des ateliers utilisant des médiations artistiques ne cessent de se multiplier dans différents champs, psychiatrique, éducatif et social notamment. Parallèlement, la demande des patients pour des approches de soins différenciées augmente considérablement dans de nombreux pays.L’art-thérapie recouvre des pratiques, des conceptualisations variées, parfois empiriques, et cette diversité rend complexes la définition, la pratique, mais aussi la formation des arts-thérapeutes. C’est pourquoi il est clairement question, dans cet ouvrage, de psychothérapies à médiation artistique comme d’un outil spécifique d’aide et de soin qu’il est indispensable de définir, référencer et comparer aux autres psychothérapies.Cett... deuxième édition fournit tous les repères nécessaires à la compréhension et à la pratique de l’art-thérapie. Elle expose dans un premier temps ses fondements historiques, conceptuels et théoriques, avant de présenter les différents types de médiations artistiques opérantes (arts plastiques, modelage, écriture, musique, théâtre et danse). La deuxième partie de l’ouvrage, réalisée avec la participation de spécialistes de chaque pratique artistique, présente des parcours cliniques nouveaux et emblématiques. Pour une pratique cohérente et professionnelle de l’art-thérapie, la troisième partie est consacrée à deux chapitres essentiels que sont les indications et les évaluations.
