Questa seconda edizione del volume di Citologia e Istologia è stata revisionata, aggiornata e completata per offrire agli stud

Le cure palliative sono una disciplina clinica ed accademica della Medicina, ormai affermata e riconosciuta nel proprio ruolo,

IntroduzioneOgni libro ha una sua storia, che è utile condividere con i lettori.La necessità di rivedere appropriatezza, criteri di utilizzo, modalità prescrittive, contesti relazionali in neuropsicofarmacologia del paziente anziano è sentita da molti.Le risposte formative sistematiche e soprattutto multidisciplinari non sono frequenti; nasce così l’idea di un Corso Multidisciplinare di due giorni, organizzato dall’Associazione Italiana di Psicogeriatria, che ha ott enuto un significativo successo per numero di partecipanti, per il loro entusiasmo operativo, per l’alta competenza dei relatori intervenuti da tutta Italia.Da questo successo, l’idea di trasferire in un libro non gli atti del congresso, ma una nuova originale elaborazione dei contenuti, con qualche opportuno ampliamento e revisione. Gli autori si sono resi disponibili a sistematizzare ed aggiornare i loro contenuti; a loro riconosciamo la grande disponibilità e la notevole competenza, senza le quali questo libro non avrebbe visto la luce.Chi lo acquista vi trova condensate le informazioni criticamente riviste sulle principali strategie neuro-psico-farmacologiche nel paziente anziano: non è un libro solo per cultori in psicogeriatria, ma anche per chi desidera avere un riferimento operativo sulle principali aree che quotidianamente il medico si trova ad esplorare con il paziente anziano.Ci rendiamo perfettamente conto che non tutte le possibili aree d’intervento sono state coperte, ma questo risente delle storie personali (i libri di collaborazione sono frutto anche di amicizie) e di scelte strategiche. Allo stesso tempo, qualche possibile disomogeneità anche formale va letta come espressione del vivace dibattito culturale che caratterizza la vita dell’Associazione Italiana di Psicogeriatria, che costituisce di fatto l’incubatrice di questo volume.Siamo convinti che l’opera rappresenti un contributo originale con importanti ricadute nella pratica quotidiana e che potrà favorire il dibattito e la crescita culturale nell’ambito delle cure del paziente psicogeriatrico.Buona lettura!Carlo Serrati, Claudio Vampini, Marco Trabucchi e Diego de Leo
