Questo testo raccoglie un’accurata selezione di contenuti che descrivono la medicina osteopatica come una disciplina sanitaria completa, coerente, basata su saldi principi e con dimostrata efficacia per un’ampia gamma di disturbi della salute, che vanno ben al di là dei dolori e delle disfunzioni a carico del sistema muscoloscheletrico. Il Manuale di Medicina Osteopatica considera la pratica osteopatica includendo differenti visioni filosofico-scientifiche e abbraccia quella diversità professionale che a tutt’oggi caratterizza la professione dell’osteopatia nel mondo. Tra i numerosi autori che hanno dato il loro contributo all’opera, infatti, figurano i più importanti osteopati clinici e accademici a livello internazionale (solo per citarne alcuni: Barral, Comeaux, Fossum, Hartmann, King, Kuchera, Raab, Schleip, Tyreman, Willard) la cui provenienza da differenti continenti sottolinea il fatto che si tratta di un tentativo “di amalgama” che tiene conto di differenti punti di vista e sapientemente li include all’interno di una visione complessa dell’osteopatia. Il Manuale di Medicina Osteopatica si apre con una prima parte storica e filosofica introduttiva, alla quale seguono alcuni capitoli sulle basi scientifiche dell’osteopatia,capitoli rilevanti perché includono le ricerche più avanzate riguardo alla fascia, all’embriologia, al sistema nervoso, alla meccanotrasduzione, alla neurobiologia, che danno interessanti spunti di riflessione sulla competenza sociale e psicoterapica e sulla prospettiva antropo-ecologica. Segue una parte dedicata alla ricerca, con capitoli sulla storia della ricerca in ambito osteopatico, sui principi statistici, sui principi dei metodi qualitativi e quantitativi e su come questi elementi possano essere fondamento di riflessione per ottimizzare la valutazione dell’efficacia del trattamento, cosi come la diagnosi e i fondamenti del trattamento osteopatico. Inoltre sono presenti capitoli su anamnesi, visita e diagnosi e sul trattamento. La parte successiva verte sulle strategie terapeutiche e chiarisce le eventuali differenze tra visioni di osteopati differenti. Seguono poi alcuni capitoli specifici sulle diverse regioni del corpo mentre l’ultima parte del testo prende in considerazione alcuni «rami dell’osteopatia» tra i quali, per esempio, l’osteopatia pediatrica, geriatrica, nel campo della psicologia, della reumatologia, della medicina dello sport, della terapia del dolore, della neurologia.

Acute Care Casebook provides a case-based approach to the broad practice of acute care medicine, covering a variety of common patient presentations and clinical environments. This book features over 70 illustrated cases, including presentations of trauma and medical illness in wilderness medicine, military and prehospital environments, pediatrics, emergency medicine, and intensive care unit and floor emergencies. Designed for students and trainees in medicine, nursing, EMS, and other acute care specialties, this text guides readers through not only symptom evaluation and treatment, but also the thought process and priorities of experienced clinicians. Each chapter features key diagnoses and management pearls from leading experts that will help prepare readers for any event, from stabilizing and transporting a trauma patient in the field, to managing post-operative complications in the ICU.

The perioperative care of individuals with neurologic compromise is critically important, yet it is only one dimension of the rich relationship between anaesthesiology and the neurosciences. The mechanism of everyday therapeutic interventions such as anaesthesia and analgesia is exciting neuroscience in its own right. At the new frontier of outcomes studies lies the question of how the perioperative period might impact the brain. For example, questions related to anaesthetic neurotoxicity, delirium, and cognitive dysfunction pose critical challenges for the field. The Oxford Textbook in Neuroscience and Anaesthesiology addresses the exciting field of neuroanaesthesiology in a new and stimulating way. In twenty eight chapters, the neuroscientific basis of anaesthesiology, the full spectrum of clinical neuroanaesthesia, and the care of neurologic patients undergoing non-neurologic surgery are explored in one comprehensive textbook for the first time. The first section considers the neural mechanisms of general anaesthetics, cerebral physiology, the neurobiology of pain, and more. The second section explores the care of patients with neurologic disease in the operating room or intensive care unit. These clinical chapters systematically treat the perioperative considerations of both brain and spine surgery, and provide introductions to neurocritical care and pediatric neuroanaesthesia. The final section outlines the care of neurologic patients undergoing non-neurologic surgery. It examines key connections of neurology and anaesthesiology, examining how conditions such as dementia, stroke, or epilepsy interface with the perioperative period. Each chapter has been carefully crafted to be concise yet highly informative, reflecting the cutting edge of neuroscience and neuroanaesthesiology. This international textbook gathers the best available expertise of authors and leaders worldwide. Includes access to online-only content, including more than 20 cases and more than 90 questions that can be used in presentations and teaching sessions.
