  • Pain Management in the Postpartum Period, An Issue of Clinics in Perinatology

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 40-3
    • Randall P. Flick + 1 more
    • English
    This issue of Clinics in Perinatology will carry the reader through the perinatal period and examine pain management throughout that continuum. Beginning with the genetics of obstetrical pain and opioid use in pregnancy, the discussion moves to the provision of anesthesia to the mother and fetus during fetal surgery – an area of intense concern and interest in many centers. There is an extensive discussion of both pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic management of pain during delivery. A discussion of regional anesthetic techniques is increasingly relevant in light of increasing evidence of adverse neurodevelopmental consequences of fetal exposure to general anesthetics and sedatives. Pain, its implications and management, are extensively covered including discussions of how to assess neonatal pain and how best to provide sedation and non-pharmacologic pain management, systemic pharmacologic, or regional techniques. Of particular interest are the reviews of the potential neurodevelopmental impact of both the treatment and the failure to adequately treat pain in the newborn. This topic is receiving an enormous amount of attention from all those who care for children as well as government and the media.

  • Complications et séquelles des traitements en cancérologie ORL

    Rapport SFORL 2013
    • 1st Edition
    • Frédéric Chabolle
    • French
    Un cancer ORL fait appel à des thérapeutiques carcinologiques lourdes et non dénuées de complications dont la connaissance est indispensable pour tous les intervenants de la cancérologie ORL. Les traitements laissent des séquelles plus ou moins importantes qui, par leur multiplicité, obèrent la qualité de vie des patients et sont au premier plan de leurs doléances. Il peut s'agir de séquelles esthétiques dans une région anatomique ayant une charge relationnelle et sociétale majeure, avec des cicatrices multiples, des défects de tissus osseux, musculaire, cutané ou dentaire. Les séquelles fonctionnelles par déficit musculaire, nerveux, cutané altèrent la reprise d'activité professionnelle ou personnelle. Les séquelles sensorielles telles que les atteintes du goût ou de l'odorat perturbent largement la qualité de vie des patients. Enfin, les séquelles dans le domaine de la communication par atteinte de l'élocution, de l'audition ou du toucher sont source d'isolement encore plus important. Aux séquelles locorégionales peuvent s'ajouter des séquelles générales liées aux traitements oncologiques médicaux. Ce rapport est destiné à tous les acteurs de la prise en charge de la cancérologie ORL, dans un esprit de multidisciplinarité. Il liste les complications et séquelles, fait des propositions thérapeutiques et envisage des voies de prévention, afin que réhabilitation rime systématiquement avec traitement du cancer.

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.

  • Dépressions difficiles et dépressions résistantes

    Optimisation des stratégies psychopharmacologiques
    • 1st Edition
    • David Gourion + 1 more
    • French
    Les patients souffrant de dépression sévère, suicidaire, résistante ou comorbide, sont rarement inclus dans les essais cliniques. De ce fait, les données scientifiques permettant d'aborder ces situations manquent cruellement, et leur prise en charge thérapeutique demeure mal codifiée. Face à des difficultés analogues, d'autres disciplines (cardiologie, cancérologie…) ont su repenser leurs modalités d'interventions, mais la psychiatrie a pris, dans ce domaine, un retard certain. L'objectif de cet ouvrage est de rendre accessibles, et utilisables avec une méthodologie clairement définie, certaines avancées dans le domaine du traitement de la dépression. Il propose ainsi aux professionnels, psychiatres hospitaliers et libéraux, une dizaine de stratégies d'optimisation du traitement antidépresseur, présentées de façon rigoureuse et systématique : efficacité de la stratégie ; données de tolérance ; modalités pratiques de mise en place ; exemples de cas cliniques ; évaluation globale du ratio bénéfice-risque et gestion du risque. Le CRED, collectif de recherche et d'étude sur la dépression, est une association loi 1901, indépendante, regroupant des psychiatres – universitaires, hospitaliers et libéraux –, des chercheurs en neurosciences et des juristes, tous bénévoles. L'objectif du CRED est de proposer aux cliniciens une réflexion indépendante et prospective, ainsi que des stratégies thérapeutiques pragmatiques et basées sur les données de la science.

    The field of Clinical Microbiology is evolving at a rapid pace, perhaps more so than any other arm of laboratory medicine. This can be attributed to new technology, including high throughput gene sequencing, multiplex molecular assays, rapid evolution of antimicrobial resistance, and discovery of new pathogens. In addition, modern medical procedures, such as solid organ and stem cell transplantation, have resulted in an explosion of infections with agents that historically have been considered to be of low virulence. This issue of Clinics in Laboratory Medicine will highlight some of the advances in diagnostic microbiology, including MALDI-TOF MS, pathogen discovery, and personalized antimicrobial chemotherapy. In addition, one of the papers will focus on implementation of new technologies and how to maximize patient impact of these new methods.

    While every facial plastic surgeon is trained in hair restoration, unless one does it frequently in practice, there are techniques, tips, and approaches to be learned from experts in this field who focus solely on hair transplantation and restoration. Techniques, Complications, Medical Treatment, and Medical Diagnosis are covered for Donor Harvesting and Management of the Donor Site; Hairline Design and Frontal Hairline Restoration; Management of Advanced Hair Loss Patterns; Repair of the Unsuccessful Hair Restoration; Tissue Expansion for Scalp Reconstruction; Imposters of Andogenetic Alopecia: Diagnostic Pearls for the Hair Restoration Surgeon; and more. This clinically focused information is intended for the facial plastic surgeon whose practice is not a majority of hair restoration and for surgeons who might want to grow their hair practice. Editors Raymond Konior and Steven Gabel lead this review in Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics. When asked why hair transplantation and restoration is of compelling interest, Dr Konior explains that he decided to limit his practice solely to hair restoration because it is a life altering procedure for patients: “People cannot believe the outcome - they come to me post-restoration and are so happy with their new appearance, telling me how much their lives are changed. Whether for job or career or personal reasons, this procedure has a positive outcome for them.”

    • English
    While cancers of the oral cavity and oropharynx were overwhelming found in smokers and drinkers, a dramatic shift is occurring with a dramatic rise in the incidence of HPV-associated oropharyngeal cancers while oral cavity cancers and HPV-negative oropharyngeal cancers appear to be declining in incidence, reflecting the reduction in cigarette smoking. These trends also have implications for how Otolaryngologists prevent, diagnose, workup, treat, and follow these patients. The focus of information in this issue is on oral cavity and oropharyngeal cancer and the implications of the HPV epidemic on this disease. Amongst the medical community during this period of trying to better grasp the association of HPV with oropharyngeal cancers, there are misconceptions and a lack of knowledge of these important shifts which are addressed by Guest Editors Jeffrey Myers and Erich Sturgis of the University of Texas, MD Anderson Cancer Center. Topics include: Epidemiology- Control of a tobacco epidemic? But emergence of a HPV epidemic?; Oral cavity and Oropharyngeal Cancer Genomics; Why Otolaryngologists need to be aware of Fanconi anemia; Impact on HPV on Orpharyngeal Cancer Biology and Response to Therapy-Implications for Treatment; Oral premalignancy- The roles of early detection and chemoprevention; Evaluation and staging- Limitations despite technological breakthroughs; 7) Surgical treatment innovations; Radiotherapy- The “Particle-rs” of energy, dose, and delivery method; Systemic Treatment- Its role before, during, and after definitive treatment; How to maximize functional assessment/rehabilit...
