  • Soyez réhab

    Depuis quelques années maintenant, les termes de rétablissement et de réhabilitation psychosociale se sont fait une place de plus en plus grande dans le paysage de la psychiatrie. L’application de ces principes, le développement de nombreux outils et les changements de paradigme modifient un peu plus chaque jour la manière d’appréhender les collaborations avec les personnes atteintes de maladies psychiques et leurs proches. Se démarquant des nombreux ouvrages qui détaillent les concepts et les procédés thérapeutiques (remédiation cognitive, TCC, habiletés sociales, etc.), Soyez réhab illustre leur mise en pratique concrète avec l’envie simple de répondre à cette question : c’est quoi faire de la réhab au quotidien ?Véritable « mode d’emploi », cet ouvrage aborde les questions fondamentales de l’identité, de la coordination et de la prise en compte du positionnement de chaque protagoniste. Il donne les clés pour favoriser un environnement propice à l’espoir, à la demande d’aide et à la réalisation des projets. Invitation à la réflexion, il nous encourage à faire ce pas de côté qui nous fera ouvrir et choisir la bonne porte vers la collaboration. Enfin, il nous alerte sur les éventuels freins, organisations et phénomènes d’accommodation qui nous font faire fausse route.Très illustré et volontairement pratique, l’ouvrage aborde ces problématiques au travers d’analyse de vignettes exposant des situations de vie précises. Ainsi le lecteur peut s’exercer au fur et à mesure que les chapitres avancent.

  • Physiopathologie du diabète

    Mécanismes d’une pandémie silencieuse
    • 1st Edition
    • Bernard Portha
    • French
    Avec cinq millions de personnes souffrant de diabète en France, et 1 personne sur 11 à l’échelle mondiale, le diabète est passé en quelques années au rang de pandémie. Initialement une maladie qui touchait les enfants (diabète de type 1), le diabète est devenu une maladie de l’adulte, avec l’augmentation de la prévalence du type 2, qui devrait continuer à croître dans les prochaines décennies. Si la découverte de l’insuline il y a cent ans a constitué une révolution dans la prise en charge, le diabète s’accompagne toujours de nombreuses complications, parfois graves (insuffisance rénale, atteinte rétinienne, neuropathie des membres inférieurs, stéatohépatite, accident vasculaire cérébral, insuffisance cardiaque, dépression, maladie d’Alzheimer, surpoids et cancer) et constitue depuis longtemps le prototype des maladies chroniques.Cet ouvrage, richement illustré par la main de l’auteur, expose les mécanismes physiopathologiques à l’origine du diabète, mais aussi de son évolution et de la survenue des différentes complications. En effet, leur compréhension fine est essentielle :• pour le développement de nouveaux traitements efficaces, et donc la recherche ; • mais aussi en pratique clinique pour surveiller, dépister voire prévenir les complications, assurer les traitements les plus adaptés car bien ciblés ; • et également pour éduquer le patient sur sa maladie car celui-ci peut jouer un rôle actif et important dans l’évolution de sa maladie.Articulé autour de grandes questions, cet ouvrage réussit à rendre accessibles et claires les connaissances fondamentales actuelles sur la physiologie humaine et le diabète. Elles sont utiles et nécessaires à tous ceux qui travaillent sur le diabète ou prennent en charge les patients diabétiques.Cet ouvrage s’adresse aux diabétologues et endocrinologues, ainsi qu’aux étudiants dans ces spécialités et en biologie et physiologie (niveau L2-L3-M1). Il s’adresse également aux professionnels prenant en charge les complications du diabète : cardiologues, néphrologues, neurologues et ophtalmologistes.
