    • 1st Edition
    • Gilles Péninou + 1 more
    • French
    L’objectif de cet ouvrage est d’exposer l’essentiel de la biomécanique fonctionnelle permettant de comprendre et de prendre en charge les troubles de la posture debout : réparer les troubles et dysfonctionnements de la posture liés aux « défauts » de la nature, corriger les troubles posturaux liés à l’usure du temps et au vieillissement, éduquer le comportement gestuel et postural, adapter le potentiel postural à des activités ludiques, sportives ou professionnelles. Cet ouvrage, illustré de plus d’une centaine de dessins, analyse dans un premier temps les notions d’équilibre et de posture puis s’intéresse à chacune des régions anatomiques qui entrent en jeu dans cette question.

  • Droits des patients

    Comprendre les textes pour bien les appliquer
    • 1st Edition
    • Christian Gilioli
    • French
    La reconnaissance des droits du malade régit désormais la relation soignant-soigné. Cet ouvrage, ancré dans la réalité et dans le quotidien du personnel soignant et dans celui des patients, permet de se poser les justes questions touchant à des sujets délicats (dignité, souffrance, bienêtre...). Après avoir déroulé le cheminement éthique et historique ayant conduit à l’élaboration progressive des droits du patient, l’auteur procède à une analyse critique des textes de loi, et explique ce que ces droits impliquent tant pour les soignants que pour les patients : que signifie exactement « consentir » quand on aborde la question du « consentement du patient » ? Quelles limites trouve-t-on à la déclaration des « directives anticipées » ? Quelles sont les limites d’un protocole dans la notion de « respect de la dignité d’un malade » (le respect de la dignité relevant surtout d’une attitude, d’un rapport particulier à l’humain) ? Cet ouvrage s’adresse aux étudiants en formation initiale (paramédicale et médicale), aux professionnels engagés dans les différentes formations universitaires (DU, Masters) ainsi qu’aux familles des patients et aux membres des associations de malades.

    Like many other medical and health-related professions, the speech-language pathology and audiology professions have been responding to the changes in the ways in which healthcare is delivered. These changes are occurring at the federal and state levels due to changes in legislative and regulatory policies. To this end and as a result of reports from the World Health Organization (2010, 2011, 2013) and the Institute of Medicine (2000, 2001, 2015), healthcare professionals are now addressing healthcare service delivery within an interprofessional, collaborative practice and patient outcomes context. This volume of Pediatric Clinics will present articles that address clinical care to a variety of pediatric speech and language clinical populations. While it will be the intent of each piece to address interprofessional perspectives of care, the opening and closing pieces, respectively, will introduce and then synthesize, all of the articles into a cogent volume. Articles are devoted to the following topics: The Journey to Interprofessional Practice: Are We There Yet; Late Talkers: Why the ‘Wait and See’ Approach is Outdated; A Pediatrician’s Guide to Cleft Palate Speech and Non-Cleft Causes of Velopharyngeal Insufficiency (VPi); Supporting Children with Autism and Their Families: A Model for Interprofessional Practice; Feeding Problems in Infants and Children: Assessment and Etiology; A Multidisciplinary Team Approach to the Differential Diagnosis of Children with Communication Disorders; Open Up and Let Us In: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Oral Health; Otitis Media: Beyond the Examining Room; Clinical Perspectives on Pre-Literacy Development in Young Children; Using the ICF Framework to Achieve Interprofessional Functional Outcomes for Young Children: A Speech-Language Pathology Perspective; Developmental Care of the Pre-Term Infant: From NICU Through High-Risk Infant Follow Up; Interprofessional Collaborative Practice: What That Means for Early Intervention Service Delivery; The Role of the Speech-Language Pathologist in Creating a Model for Interprofessional Practice in an Ambulatory Care Clinic; and Identification of Speech and Language Delays in Young Children: An Important Collaborative Role for the Pediatrician.

  • Les troubles liés aux traumatismes et aux facteurs de stress

    Le guide du clinicien
    • 1st Edition
    • Patricia CASEY + 3 more
    • French
    Le clinicien dispose enfin d’une aide au diagnostic et au traitement des troubles liés aux traumatismes et aux facteurs de stress, qui vont bien au-delà du stress post-traumatique. Fondé sur un haut niveau de connaissances scientifiques, cet ouvrage est le seul en langue française à aborder de manière pratique et clinique un large panel de ces troubles, illustrés par des cas cliniques. Le premier enjeu est de distinguer une réponse normale d’une réponse pathologique. Puis, le nouveau regroupement diagnostique introduit dans le DSM-5® permet l’explicitation des différents troubles et syndromes : - le trouble de l’adaptation, - le trouble stress aigu, - le trouble stress post-traumatique, - le vécu de désagrégation, - le deuil complexe persistant. Enfin les moyens pour surmonter et prendre en charge ces troubles sont exposés au clinicien, avec une analyse de la résilience et des thérapeutiques les plus actuelles, particulièrement de celles qui se sont avérées les plus efficaces dans des études contrôlées. Cette oeuvre se distingue par une étude fine des aspects médico-légaux des troubles liés aux traumatismes et aux facteurs de stress, et des nouveaux développements dans le DSM-5® et la CIM-11, qui succèdera à la CIM-10. L’ouvrage permet de se mettre à jour des recommandations internationales, en phase avec l’état actuel de la littérature scientifique internationale – notamment pour ce qui est des questions neuropsychologiques, pharmacologiques et cognitivo-comporteme... Il constitue un véritable outil de travail à destination des psychiatres, psychothérapeutes et psychologues cliniciens, qu’ils soient professionnels ou étudiants. Cet ouvrage a été publié dans sa version originale par l’American Psychiatric Association, sous le titre Trauma- and Stressor-Related Disorders. A handbook for clinicians.
