  • Handbook of Equine Emergencies

    • 1st Edition
    • Debra Catherine Archer
    • English
    The Handbook of Equine Emergencies is a concise, easy-to-follow practical guide to how to deal with a range of equine emergencies likely to be encountered by clinicians both in the UK and abroad. It is primarily aimed at new graduates and veterinarians who do not deal with equine emergencies on a regular basis, but will also appeal to more experienced equine practitioners who want a quick update on a specific subject area or practical technique. The Handbook is highly portable and contains a large number of colour images, diagrams and tables as well as handy tips and key points to remember. An overview of the basics of dealing with equine emergencies is followed by a convenient organ-based approach. The book includes invaluable information on infectious diseases and specialized emergency situations such as trapped horses or stable fires, and a how-to section gives concise but detailed descriptions of how to perform a number of diagnostic investigations. The Handbook is accompanied by a mobile-optimized website that presents audio, video and text files for quick reprisal via phone or tablet while on-the-go. The website also includes additional colour images that are relevant to specific emergency situations covered in the book.

    • French
    Les risques psychosociaux sont devenus l'une des principales préoccupations des responsables et managers d'entreprise. Parmi ceux-ci, la dépression professionnelle est peu à peu sortie de l'ombre pour devenir une maladie professionnelle émergente, bien qu'il soit parfois difficile d'établir un lien entre travail et dépression tant les causes de cette maladie peuvent être multifactorielles. Cet ouvrage : - identifie la singularité de la dépression professionnelle, en analysant ses mécanismes psychologiques et biologiques puis en la différenciant des autres troubles psychosociaux, en particulier le stress et le burnout ; - propose des actions préventives et des aspects thérapeutiques grâce notamment aux thérapies cognitives et comportementales ; - apporte des solutions aux acteurs du monde de l'entreprise pour prévenir les facteurs de risques (harcèlement professionnel, violence, stress, risque suicidaire) en agissant en particulier sur le management et la formation. Illustré de situations concrètes, cet ouvrage propose aux praticiens de l'accompagnement professionnel, aux professionnels de la santé au travail, mais également aux managers et aux salariés, d'appréhender les enjeux spécifiques de la dépression au travail et suggère des pistes pour s'en prémunir.
