Medicina d'urgenza

I medici che si dedicano alla medicina di emergenza urgenza devono fornire ai pazienti una assistenza di alta qualità in minor tempo possibile.  La novità di questo testo è che gli argomenti rivisti alla luce delle ultime linee guida internazionali, possono essere consultati in pochi minuti. La sintesi metodologica permette al medico di medicina generale, a quello di guardia medica, di emergenza territoriale e ai medici che operano nelle medicine di urgenza e di pronto soccorso, di individuare velocemente i punti chiave clinicistrumentali e terapeutici di qualsiasi tipo di patologia o disturbo.  Spero che la lettura del testo sia un utile strumento per tutti coloro che iniziano un percorso di formazione, studenti e specializzandi in medicina e in medicina di urgenza.  Mi auguro che la semplicità di questo libro e la sua rapida lettura migliorino il ragionamento clinico e permettano una diagnosi più rapida dei pazienti.

Questo manuale tascabile racchiude i contenuti, clinicamente più rilevanti, del Tintinalli's - Medicina d'Emergenza, 8ª edizio

Il Compendio rappresenta, un’opera di taglio editoriale intermedio, un vero e proprio distillato che condensa le parti cliniche maggiormente rilevanti del Trattato di Medicina di Emergenza e di Pronto Soccorso, selezionate attentamente tra le sezioni ed i vari capitoli delle stesse, in modo da consentire al discente l’acquisizione di una “preparazione complessiva adeguata di base” in grado di favorire l’apprendimento dei criteri più appropriati dell’approccio metodologico-clinico ai vari quadri semeiologici acuti di presentazione e, di conseguenza, di garantire le risposte terapeutiche più immediate ed efficaci alle problematiche di più frequente riscontro nella gestione del paziente acuto e critico.Il Compendio è stato, quindi, elettivamente concepito per le esigenze specifiche di preparazione nella disciplina della Medicina di Emergenza - Urgenza e di Pronto Soccorso dello studente universitario della facoltà di medicina e chirurgia, del medico, specialista e non specialista, anche non direttamente impegnato in Area Critica ma comunque interessato all’Emergenza-Urgenza, così come, per le parti integrate di competenza, dell’infermiere di Area Critica.

Il nucleo fondamentale delle conoscenze e delle abilità pratiche del Primo Soccorso è rappresentato da un insieme di manovre salvavita, finalizzate elettivamente ad assicurare l’ossigenazione minimale di emergenza degli organi vitali, al primo posto cervello e cuore, quando sia presente un imminente pericolo di perdere la vita, che viene internazionalmente definito con la sigla “BLSD” (Basic Life Support Defibrillation). Un manuale pratico di BLSD in grado di fornire, in modo necessariamente contenuto e schematico, con approccio espositivo diretto ed il supporto didattico, inerente ogni manovra, ogni passaggio metodologico, ciascuno schema comportamentale, di un’iconografia dettagliata e curata, in grado di illustrare visivamente al discente, nel modo più chiaro possibile, tutti i passaggi essenziali delle varie sequenze rianimatorie, nel contesto di una visione complessiva essenziale mirata – costantemente – su “quando” intervenire, su “come” agire, sul “che cosa” si debba fare ed infine sul “perché” si debba farlo, ogni qualvolta incomba il pericolo di perdere la vita.
