  • The Eight Roles of the Medical Teacher

    The Purpose and Function of a Teacher in the Healthcare Professions
    • 1st Edition
    • Ronald M. Harden + 1 more
    • English
    The Eight Roles of the Medical Teacher: The purpose and function of a teacher in the healthcare professions is an essential read for all new teachers or trainers in medicine and the healthcare professions, while encouraging the more experienced teacher to review their educational responsibilities. It looks at teaching from the perspective of the functions or roles of a teacher. While aiming to maintain both brevity and clarity it adopts a personal style and approach in order to provide a flavour of what it means to be a teacher.The authors describe the eight key roles for the teacher or trainer. For maximum effectiveness and job satisfaction it is important for every teacher to establish their roles in an education programme and to know how to contribute most effectively. This book is written to assist with these goals. All teachers should have an understanding of the eight roles but cannot be expected to be an expert in all of them. A consideration of these roles illuminates what is expected of a teacher and illustrates how to maximise potential.All the chapters contain brief overviews, key take-home messages, a summary of the role responsibilities of all teachers, ‘expert’ teachers and ‘master’ teachers, and suggestions for consideration by the teacher as to their personal role. At the end of each chapter is a list of references of the topics addressed in the chapter. The text includes short narratives from 38 teachers around the world as well as personal anecdotes to provide an additional insight into the roles a teacher fulfils.

    Cette encyclopédie est dédiée à l’imagerie cardiovasculaire ultrasonore du chien et du chat, domaine qui a connu, en trois décennies, une véritable révolution avec l’avènement de l’échocardiographie en modes bidimensionnel et temps-mouvement, complétée par l’examen Doppler conventionnel, et enrichie par le Doppler tissulaire myocardique ou tissue Doppler Imaging (TDI), les techniques dérivées du TDI, le speckle tracking imaging et l’échocardiographie tridimensionnelle (3D). Ces techniques, complémentaires les unes des autres, permettent une analyse cardiovasculaire extrêmement fine, non seulement par abord transthoracique, mais également transoesophagien et même, plus récemment, intracardiaque ! Afin de mettre son expérience de toutes ces techniques à la portée de tous, selon une méthodologie rigoureuse reposant sur plus de 1200 références bibliographiques, le Pr Valérie Chetboul connue internationalement pour ses publications et ouvrages dans le domaine, s’est alliée à une consoeur, le Dr Charlotte Taton, aux talents artistiques incontestables. Unique par son ampleur, son exhaustivité et son abondante iconographie de haute qualité enrichie de nombreuses données chiffrées, cet ouvrage de référence offre près de 1000 photos et 250 vidéos dont une trentaine d’animations partant d’un modèle de coeur 3D animé, fidèle représentation de la réalité anatomique et spécifiquement conçu pour l’occasion. Cette encyclopédie d’imagerie a également la grande originalité de présenter pour chacune des cardiopathies étudiées, une synthèse de leurs caractéristiques épidémiologiques, étiologiques, physiopathologiques, génétiques et cliniques, notions indispensables à connaître pour être un échocardiographiste de qualité. Cette encyclopédie s’adresse ainsi à tous ceux intéressés par la cardiologie vétérinaire : aussi bien ceux désireux de comprendre les cardiopathies et les modifications échocardiographiques associées, que ceux débutants souhaitant se former en échocardiographie de façon solide, rapide et agréable, qu’aux échocardiographistes avertis désirant se perfectionner ou encore aux étudiants et internes des écoles vétérinaires, dans le but de communiquer à ces derniers les bases de la spécialité. Les résidents et spécialistes y trouveront également toutes les données détaillées et actualisées concernant l’ensemble des techniques d’imagerie cardiovasculaire ultrasonore, conventionnelles et non conventionnelles, utilisées chez les carnivores domestiques.

  • Traité de réhabilitation psychosociale

    • 1st Edition
    • Nicolas FRANCK
    • French
    La réhabilitation psychosociale regroupe des pratiques destinées à favoriser le rétablissement des personnes ayant des troubles psychiques sévères (troubles du spectre de la schizophrénie, troubles du spectre de l’autisme, troubles bipolaires, troubles sévères de la personnalité, etc.). Elle s’appuie sur la mise en évidence de leurs ressources, y compris cognitives, et sur le renforcement de leurs capacités de décision et d’action. Ce traité témoigne de la pluralité et de l’ampleur des travaux engagés. Rassemblant une somme considérable de données, il permet d’embrasser la complexité, la diversité et la richesse de cette discipline porteuse d’espoir pour ses usagers comme pour ses professionnels. Il fait le lien entre, d’une part, les aspects théoriques et, d’autre part, les programmes d’évaluation et de soin et les organisations pratiques. Il a été rédigé sous la direction du professeur Nicolas Franck par plus de 150 auteurs. Chacun d’entre eux, qu’il s’agisse d’un professionnel (enseignant-chercheu... psychiatre, psychologue spécialisé en neuropsychologie, psychologue clinicien, ergothérapeute, infirmier ou coordonnateur de réseau), d’une personne concernée par la maladie psychique ou d’un proche, est particulièrement représentatif et reconnu dans son domaine propre. Il fait un inventaire quasi exhaustif des réflexions, des recherches et des procédés thérapeutiques (psychoéducation, remédiation cognitive, entraînement de la cognition sociale, accompagnement vers l’emploi, entraide entre pairs, etc.) déployés dans le champ de la réhabilitation psychosociale. Celle-ci devrait représenter la norme en termes de prise en charge des troubles psychiques sévères, dans la mesure où elle constitue un facteur crucial de continuité des parcours, de prévention des rechutes et d’inclusion sociale.

    Tout geste chirurgical génère un stress qui peut être responsable de profondes modifications hormonales, métaboliques et physiologiques. La convalescence postopératoire est donc un processus complexe propre à chaque patient. L’implémentation de programmes de récupération ou réhabilitation améliorée après chirurgie (RAC), l’émergence croissante de données de la littérature, et l’intérêt des différents acteurs de santé sont au cœur des questions abordées dans cet ouvrage de synthèse. Cet ouvrage aborde à la fois les aspects techniques mais aussi organisationnels de la RAC, avec en question de fond une chirurgie moins agressive grâce à un environnement péri-opératoire adapté et une gestion optimale de la sortie du patient. Afin d’avoir une vision d’ensemble de la RAC, les fondements scientifiques, les indications du programme, les aspects médico-économiques et les perspectives avec le développement de la e-santé sont très largement développés, et viennent éclairer les chapitres dédiés à la mise en place du programme dans un service ou dans un établissement. La mise en place de la RAC implique une cohésion et un travail multidisciplinaire. L’ouvrage s’adresse à tous les praticiens : chirurgiens, anesthésistes, infirmiers et kinésithérapeutes ; mais aussi aux cadres de santé et aux administratifs.
