Opere di carattere generale

La medicina ambulatoriale è una disciplina nella quale il medico opera molto spesso  da solo, senza l’ausilio di una equipe medica, come invece avviene nelle corsie ospedaliere.  Quasi sempre egli si trova a dover operare e decidere rapidamente, senza potersi consultare con colleghi, prendendo decisioni che potrebbero rivelarsi importanti per il paziente e delle quali d’altra parte potrebbe essere chiamato a rispondere. In questa situazione il carico di responsabilità è legato non solo alle capacità professionali, alle conoscenze cliniche, all’applicazione di protocolli validati ma anche alla conoscenza di norme che in genere non vengono apprese durante il corso di studi universitari né durante il tirocinio ospedaliero.Questo volume si propone di far sentire meno solo il medico che pratica la Medicina Ambulatoriale, fornendogli alcuni strumenti necessari per operare: strumenti normativi, strumenti clinici e consigli pratici. Gli strumenti normativi sono non soltanto le leggi e le norme che regolano questa attività ma anche i consigli  su come si stilano tipi particolari di ricette, prestazioni, esenzioni, certificazioni ed atti dovuti. Gli strumenti professionali sono invece costituiti da un ampio prontuario di medicina ambulatoriale con schemi di diagnostica e di terapia per le patologie più comuni, che segue i protocolli di trattamento internazionalmente accettati. Infine tanti consigli su errori che è facile commettere, su cosa fare o cosa evitare di fare in tante situazioni rischiose.  Insomma un aiuto per questa tipologia di professione medica niente affatto facile.Questa  nuova edizione del Manuale di Medicina Ambulatoriale viene pubblicata durante quello che sembra il crepuscolo della pandemia da SARS-CoV-2. Una  pandemia che ha mietuto milioni di vittime e che ha richiesto un terribile tributo da parte dei medici e del personale sanitario. Solo dopo grandi e ripetute vaccinazioni di massa il virus è diventato meno virulento e gestibile più agevolmente. Tante nuove conoscenze e tanti nuovi farmaci si sono aggiunte di giorno in giorno al nostro armamentario e sono succintamente descritte nel volume. Altri nuovi argomenti arricchiscono la VI edizione del volume  come la malattia infiammatoria pelvica, la celiachia, la malnutrizione proteico calorica, gli aneurismi dell’aorta addominale e dell’aorta toracica, la sindrome del Q-T lungo, la febbre West Nile.
