pagine: 528
Le Cure Palliative sono un ambito della Medicina ormai affermato e riconosciuto nel proprio ruolo, con una significativa diffusione in tutta Italia dei servizi di cure palliative domiciliari e degli hospice. Gli Autori, dopo molti anni di lavoro in questa disciplina, hanno maturato l’esigenza di pubblicare questo libro dedicandolo, in particolare, ai futuri medici affinché, già nel loro percorso verso la laurea, possano prepararsi ad un efficace approccio al dolore e alla sofferenza. Il giovane medico potrà così apprendere che la risposta alla sofferenza è raggiungibile non solo controllando i sintomi ma affrontando i problemi psicologici, sociali e spirituali della persona malata con la collaborazione di un’equipe multiprofessionale e il coinvolgimento ed il sostegno della famiglia del paziente. Troverà nel testo le indicazioni cliniche dei principali sintomi e quadri clinici e le modalità di accompagnamento del morente, fino ad esplorare la natura complessa della sofferenza e a riflettere sulle risposte ai dilemmi etici della fase finale della vita.

Paediatric Palliative Medicine

editore: Oxford University Press
pagine: 352
Looking after children with life-limiting conditions is very difficult for both parents and health care professionals. This second edition of Paediatric Palliative Medicine is full of easily-accessible, detailed information , and covers all aspects of the care of children with life-limiting illnesses. It is designed to equip clinicians with the knowledge, and its evidence base, to improve clinical care. Using the bestselling Oxford Specialist Handbook format to deliver practical and concise information, this handbook facilitates bedside delivery of effective palliative medicine to children. It includes a quick reference drug formulary and detailed information on medical conditions and symptom control. There are also specific management plans to guide professionals, whether the child is in their own home, in a hospital, or a hospice. Many children with long term conditions have symptoms which need management, and the principles of palliative care for children need to be known by all who are involved in their care. The unique significance of this handbook is its capacity to guide professionals who have not trained or had experience of caring for the dying child, as well as for students and trainees interested in paediatric palliative care. Children's palliative medicine encompasses symptom control but is not limited to it. This handbook also provides a wealth of information on the philosophy and models that support delivery of palliative medicine to children, as well as the learning and coping skills required in palliative care. Fully updated with an expanded formulary and a new chapter on the intensive care unit, this new edition continues to be the authoritative reference tool in paediatric palliative care.

Cure palliative pediatriche: la gestione del dolore
a cura di S. Baroncini
editore: Editori Vari
pagine: 404
In particolare, in ambito pediatrico, il controllo del dolore richiede un approccio scientifico ma al tempo stesso personalizzato per rispondere ai bisogni specifici dei bambini di età differenti e con patologie di svariata natura e complessità. Garantire la qualità della vita, obiettivo primario delle cure palliative, richiede che tutti coloro che si prendono cura del bambino e della sua famiglia siano consapevoli della necessità di mantenere attiva e aggiornata la cultura del dolore, diffondendola per non negare opportunità terapeutiche, farmacologiche e non farmacologiche, limitando così la sofferenza legata all'esperienza della malattia cronico-degenerativa. Questo volume può essere un valido strumento di approfondimento e aggiornamento non solo per tutti coloro che operano nell'ambito delle cure palliative pediatriche, ma anche per i professionisti di altri settori che si impegnano quotidianamente per contrastare la sofferenza inutile dei bambini.

The care of patients with advanced and terminal illness can be extremely rewarding but often causes professionals a considerable amount of discomfort. This is especially so when you feel under confident in your abilities to provide a high quality of symptom management and relief from distress and to communicate appropriately with patients. Patients with advanced disease present some of the most challenging ethical, physical, psychological and social issues to clinicians and indeed to society. Patients need us to be knowledgeable, skilful and understanding. The fully revised and updated new edition of Palliative Care outlines the fundamental principles and facts which will enable you to make a very real difference to your patients and their families. Information is provided in an accessible, user-friendly way and covers a wide range of physical and non-physical symptom management. Multi-professional team work is addressed, as is the role and support of families. There is also a consideration of the dilemmas and decisions that may be encountered by doctors around the end of a patient's life.
This practical resource, designed to provoke contemplative professional development, and enhance learning will be essential reading for nursing and medical practitioners, and other professionals who support patients in their homes, in care homes, and in hospital.
