Hutchison's Clinical Methods: An Integrated Approach to Clinical Practice, 22/e 2007


Michael Swash, Michael Glynn,
Hutchison's Clinical Methods: An Integrated Approach to Clinical Practice, 22/e 2007
Publisher:Saunders Ltd | Pages:560 | 2007-04-20 | ISBN:0702027995 | 0702027995 CHM | 157 MB

Hutchison's Clinical Methods, first published over a century ago, is the classic textbook on clinical examination. It provides an outstanding source of learning and reference for undergraduate medical students and postgraduate doctors. It seeks to teach an integrated approach to clinical practice, so that new methods and investigations are grafted onto established patterns of clinical practice, rather than added on as something extra. The text is organised so that both system-related and problem-oriented chapters are included. Particular emphasis is placed on the importance of the doctor-patient relationship, the essential skills needed for clinical examination, and for planning the appropriate choice of investigations in diagnosis and management.

Book Description:
As with all the books in the At a Glance series, the aim of the approach is to reduce frills to zero, to condense words to the absolute minimum and to make the illustrations the primary tool of communication. The text repeats some of what is in the drawings and adds further basic information. It is not intended to try to replace existing textbooks of endocrinology, but to provide students with a tool with which they can revise rapidly, economically and with confidence. It will also serve as a useful introductory book for those who do not need a great deal of detail about endocrinology. It is therefore aimed at the student who wants essential information available literally at a glance.

Book Description:
Metabolism at a Glance is a complete review course of metabolism in health and disease and offers a unique approach to the study of this difficult discipline.Metabolism is a complicated subject involving complex molecules and interrelated pathways. These metabolic pathways are usually taught separately with the result that the student develops a detailed but compartmentalised approach to metabolism and frequently fails to see the overall picture and its physiological significance.Using the at a Glance format, the book takes the student through a complete course in intermediary metabolism in an integrated manner. The same chart is repeated throughout the book with the individual pathway under study highlighted.The book is an ideal text for introductory biochemistry courses and has established itself as an enormously popular book amongst lecturers and students alike. This third edition is fully updated and includes five new chapters:1. Metabolic Channelling2. Glucose homeostasis and Reyes Disease3. Pentose phosphate pathway and the prodcution of NADPH4. Tryptophan metabolism in health and disease5. Tyrosine metabolism in health and disease

Transfixation: Atlas of Anatomical Sections for the External Fixation of Limbs

Transfixation: Atlas of Anatomical Sections for the External Fixation of Limbs

By Claude Faure, Philippe Merloz
  • Publisher: Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG

  • Number Of Pages:

  • Publication Date: 1987-12-31

  • Sales Rank: 4270099

  • ISBN / ASIN: 3540171274

  • EAN: 9783540171270

This book, translated from the French original, is intended as a reference manual for othopaedic
surgeons using external fixation devices and consists of a series of photographs of cross sections
of fixed specimens of the limbs (excluding the hand and foot) matched with labelled diagrams
identifying the structures present and indicating the 'safe zones' though which a fixation pin may
transfix the limb (hence 'transfixation'). There are some rather poor CT scans together with
additional notes on the levels of the sections and on reference lines for defining the safe zones.
Unfortunately the book falls between two approaches without completely satisfying either. If it is
intended simply to present the anatomical information and let the surgeon work out for himself
the best position and direction to insert his pins, then there are not enough sections (particularly
in the arm) to provide the detail required. If, on the other hand, the authors expect the surgeon
to follow their instructions for safe zones directly, then there should be more discussion of the
identification of hazards by surface landmarks, some mention of the range of variation and, above
all, correction of the potentially dangerous omission of any mention of the radial nerve in the
spiral groove passing across the middle of one of the 'safe zones'. There are other minor criticisms;
one section is described as being 'above the insertion of the deltoid' but there is no sign of the
deltoid or its tendon in the section; the axillary vessels and cords of the brachial plexus are twice
described as 'some distance apart' when it is clear from the photographs and diagrams that they
are not.For an anatomist, the usefulness of the book is further limited by the photographs which,
although well presented and printed, show only a fraction of the detail which must have been
present in the original. It is often difficult to distinguish muscle from muscle, artery from vein and
nerve from tendon or fat. Many of the nerves, even though localised from the diagrams, are not
visible in the photographs. Most of the joints are not illustrated (they must not be transfixed by
the surgeon) but there are some useful views of the shoulder and elbow. The book is attractive in
concept and is very well printed and presented. In spite of its limitations it would be of value for
consolidation and testing of knowledge. For the surgeon, it provides a different perspective on the
anatomy of the limbs but contains at least one potential danger and so must be used with care and
a good basic knowledge of anatomy

Cognitive Rehabilitation in Old Age

Cognitive Rehabilitation in Old Age


Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA
Number Of Pages: 312

Sales Rank: 932207

Cognitive deficits are part of the normal aging process and are exacerbated by various diseases that affect adults in old age, such as dementia, depression, and stroke. A significant scientific and social effort has been expended to evaluate whether cognitive deficits can be remedied through systematic interventions. The editors, as well as the chapter authors, represent a variety of viewpoints that span theory as well as practice. Overall, they aim to address concepts in cognitive rehabilitation that are useful in intervention research -- research which examines problems and issues in normal and pathological aging -- and focusing on the application of cognitive training strategies in natural settings. Thus, the book is grounded in contemporary theory in cognitive aging and is applicable to both the practicing clinician as well as the researcher. It is organized into four sections. The first highlights prominent theoretical principles; the second looks at cognitive rehabilitation strategies in normal aging; the third examines the interplay between lifestyle patterns and cognitive function through applying a broad definition of lifestyle choices; and the fourth focuses on rehabilitation strategies that address issues in pathological (or diseased) aging.
