  • Paediatric Clinical Examination Made Easy

    • 6th Edition
    • Denis Gill + 1 more
    • English
    Fully revised, this is an updated new edition of a much-loved book which has built a reputation for pithy, entertaining good sense over the course of six editions. ‘Children are different. Paediatrics is much more than medicine miniaturised.’ From reviews of the previous edition: ‘All in all a very handy book for the student, the resident or other professionals working with children. I had a lot of fun reading it.’ ‘The book is full of wonderful illustrations, and funny and profound advice with quotations, like the words of Sir Dominic Corrigan (1853): "The trouble with many doctors is not that they do not know enough but that they do not see enough", or the advice to teach thy tongue to say" "I do not know" (Rabbi Moses Maimonides or Rambam, 1135-1204). I have used this book for my final medical year paediatrics exams, the DCH and the MRCP and it has been a great help. It reminds us of the most important and basic things - history and examination, and of course a friendly demeanour.’

  • TCC dans l'autisme et le retard mental

    Aider l'adulte à s'épanouir
    • 1st Edition
    • Ayman MURAD
    • French
    Les personnes ayant un trouble du spectre autistique (TSA) avec retard mental, ou un retard mental isolé, souffrent plus fréquemment que le reste de la population de désordres psychiques caractérisés, tels que l’anxiété, la dépression et les colères explosives, ou de difficultés liées au handicap. Ces situations entraînent une souffrance psychique face à laquelle les professionnels se trouvent souvent démunis, ne sachant comment utiliser leurs connaissances en psychothérapie pour soulager leurs patients. En effet, cette population éprouve fréquemment des difficultés dans l’échange, notamment pour exprimer ses émotions. Après avoir présenté les notions cliniques propres aux TSA et au retard mental à l’âge adulte, l’auteur expose les principes généraux des thérapies comportementales et cognitives, puis il détaille les TCC appliquées aux champs prédéfinis. Le procédé de l’analyse fonctionnelle et de la conceptualisation est ensuite explicité à travers ses phases successives, depuis les premières observations, jusqu’au choix des objectifs et des techniques thérapeutiques. Une dernière partie s’attache aux différentes interventions à mettre en place selon les cas. Cet ouvrage s’adresse aux professionnels, formés ou non à ce modèle, afin de leur permettre de recourir aux meilleurs outils pour soulager la détresse des sujets handicapés. Basé sur les sciences du comportement, ce livre fait de l’apprentissage son maître-mot et révèle une vision active et optimiste des interactions entre l’humain et son environnement. Ayman Murad est psychiatre, praticien hospitalier au centre hospitalier de Rouffach et au Centre de ressources Autisme Alsace, et chargé d’enseignement à l’Université de Strasbourg. Il est également membre et enseignant à l’AFTCC (Association française de thérapie comportementale et cognitive).

    • French
    La remédiation cognitive est un outil de soin destiné à renforcer les ressources cognitives afin de restaurer la capacité à percevoir, à comprendre, à décider et à agir. Elle vise à réduire les conséquences de troubles cognitifs pouvant avoir un fort retentissement négatif sur la capacité des personnes à affronter leur quotidien, leurs relations interpersonnelles et à s’insérer professionnellement. Des altérations de l’attention, de la mémoire, des fonctions exécutives et visuospatiales et de la cognition sociale sont associées aux troubles mentaux sévères (dont la schizophrénie et les troubles bipolaires), à la dépression, aux troubles neurodéveloppementau... (dont les troubles du spectre autistique et les déficits de l’attention avec ou sans hyperactivité), aux lésions cérébrales (consécutives en particulier à un traumatisme, à un accident vasculaire ou à une alcoolo-dépendance) et aux affections neurodégénératives. La remédiation cognitive intervient après un bilan neuropsychologique préalable, lorsque la pathologie est stabilisée et que le traitement médicamenteux a été réduit à la posologie minimale efficace. Les compétences acquises en séances sont destinées à se généraliser et à permettre d’affronter avec plus de succès les situations quotidiennes, favorisant ainsi le rétablissement. Les programmes de remédiation cognitive reposent sur la réalisation d’exercices spécifiques verbaux, écrits ou informatisés, dans le cadre de séances groupales ou individuelles. Cet ouvrage est destiné aux professionnels − et futurs professionnels − de santé (notamment les psychiatres, psychologues, infirmiers et ergothérapeutes). Le contenu de cette seconde édition a été totalement revu et actualisé. De nouveaux chapitres concernant le traitement des personnes alcoolo-dépendantes ou souffrant de lésions cérébrales acquises ont été ajoutés.
