Kinderfysiotherapie
by R. Van Empelen Ria Nijhuis-Van Der Sanden Annelies HartmanIn deze druk wordt een beeld gegeven van vernieuwingen in visie, werkwijze en inzichten in de Nederlandse kinderfysiotherapie. Zowel wetenschappers als praktisch georiënteerde kinderfysiotherapeuten en andere bij kinderen betrokken behandelaars belichten hun invalshoeken op de diverse indicatiegebieden. In het boek wordt achtereenvolgens beschreven hoe het methodisch systematisch handelen, het gebruik van de International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health for Children and Youth (ICF-CY) als classificatiesysteem en het Hypothesis-Oriented Algorithm for Clinicians II (HOAC-II) als model voor klinisch redeneren verhelderend werken en de transparantie vergroten. Hierdoor is het boek niet alleen geschikt als studieboek voor de opleiding, maar is het zeker ook onmisbaar voor reeds praktiserende kinderfysiotherapeuten. Daarnaast is het boek waardevol voor kindergeneeskundigen, kinderartsen, (kinder)revalidatieartsen, huisartsen, consultatiebureauartsen, ergotherapeuten, orthopedagogen, logopedisten, psychologen en vele andere professionele hulpverleners in de kinder- en jeugdgezondheidszorg. De redactie was ook deze keer in handen van Ron van Empelen, Ria Nijhuis-van der Sanden en Annelies Hartman.
Kinderneurologie: van symptoom naar diagnose
by Dewi Bakker Oebo Brouwer Nynke Doornebal Elisa Hamer Karina Kersbergen Jolanda SchievingDit is geen standaard leerboek over de kinderneurologie. Zoals de titel reeds suggereert, zijn in dit boek niet ziektebeelden leidend, maar klachten en symptomen. Daarbij ligt de nadruk op aanwijzingen in de anamnese en neurologisch onderzoek die leiden naar een differentiële diagnose en aanvullend onderzoek. Na enkele algemene hoofdstukken over anamnese, onderzoek, aanvullend onderzoek en revalidatiegeneeskunde volgt de bespreking van een groot aantal klinische problemen waarmee kinderen zich kunnen presenteren op de polikliniek en de spoedeisende hulp. Er is daarbij niet gestreefd naar volledigheid, maar gekozen voor thema’s die voor de alledaags klinische praktijk het meest relevant zijn. De hoofdstukken zijn geschreven door een groot aantal jonge en meer ervaren kinderneurologen uit heel Nederland, waarbij rekening is gehouden met hun specifieke expertise op een bepaald gebied. Online is ook het ebook beschikbaar met extra informatie; er zijn verwijzingen naar overzichtsartikelen en adressen van nuttige websites opgenomen. Bij elk hoofdstuk hoort een module met oefenvragen waarmee de eigen kennis getest en uitgebreid kan worden. De belangrijkste doelgroep vormen artsen in opleiding tot neuroloog of kinderarts en kinderneurologen in opleiding, maar het boek is ook geschikt voor medici en paramedici die regelmatig contact hebben met kinderen met neurologische aandoeningen, zoals neurologen, kinderartsen, revalidatieartsen, psychologen en fysiotherapeuten.

Kinderorthopedie voor de huisarts: Rode vlaggen en witte raven
by Joost Van Linge Christiaan Van Bergen Melinda WitbreukHuisartsen krijgen geregeld vragen op het spreekuur over klachten van het bewegingsapparaat bij kinderen. Zoals vragen over de stand van de benen en voeten of de manier van lopen. De fysiologische range is breed. Maar wanneer is er toch iets meer aan de hand met een x-been? En kun je met volle overtuiging ouders geruststellen dat het wel goed komt met die platvoeten? Dit boek is praktisch en visueel ingesteld om de huisarts tijdens een consult snel wegwijs te maken in de kinderorthopedie. Hierbij wordt zowel de scheiding tussen fysiologie en pathologie als de meest voorkomende kinderorthopedische problemen besproken. Rode vlaggen die niet gemist mogen worden en witte raven die zich in de eerste lijn kunnen presenteren zijn in de tekst goed herkenbaar weergegeven. De hoofdstukken starten met een overzichtstabel met incidenties, typische leeftijd van presentatie en mogelijke symptomen. Zo blijven in één oogopslag nog maar een paar diagnoses in de differentiaaldiagnose (DD) staan. Met veel beeldmateriaal en illustraties en praktische informatie geeft dit boek de handvatten om tot de juiste diagnose te komen en de patiënt uitleg te geven. Ook geeft de redactie advies of aanvullend onderzoek zinvol is, welke behandeling in de eerste lijn gestart kan worden en wanneer verwijzing naar de tweede lijn nodig is. Kinderorthopedie voor de huisarts, rode vlaggen en witte raven is in eerste instantie interessant voor de huisarts. Maar ook alle (para)medici die in aanraking komen met de kinder ortho pedische pathologie zullen in dit boek terug kunnen vinden waar ze in hun spreekkamer mee in aanraking komen. De redactie bestaat uit Joost van Linge, orthopedisch chirurg voor kinderen in het Juliana Kinderziekenhuis en Reinier de Graaf Gasthuis. Christiaan van Bergen, orthopedisch chirurg in het Amphia Breda en Erasmus MC – Sophia Kinderziekenhuis Rotterdam. Melinda Witbreuk, orthopedisch chirurg in het OLVG en het Amsterdam UMC in Amsterdam.
Kindertraumachirurgie
by W.L.M. Kramer A. T. Besselaar J.H.J.M. Bessems M.J.R. Edwards J. C. Goslings M. Heeg P. Kloen L.P.H. Leenen R.M.H. WijnenHet hoort bij de ontwikkeling van kinderen van iedere leeftijd. In hun spel en dynamiek proberen ze altijd hun grenzen uit. Een ongeluk zit dan in een klein hoekje. Kleine of juist zeer ernstige letsels kunnen op ieder moment optreden, op elke leeftijd, van klein tot groot. Juist dat maakt kinderen uniek: zó zijn ze doodziek en zó zijn ze weer springlevend. Zó huilen ze en zó lachen ze.Deze kenmerken bepalen bij kinderen sterk de presentatie van de klachten en de verschijnselen na letsel . Daarom vergt het behandelen van kinderen specifieke kennis en ervaring. Het is voor de behandelaar essentieel deze dynamiek te onderkennen en het kind weer vrolijk en speels aan het lachen te krijgen.Kinderen zijn fantastisch, ze verdienen optimale traumazorg en preventie. In het boek Kindertraumachirurgie vindt de behandelaar specifiek de noodzakelijke kennis. Onze missie is: ‘Laat kinderen met letsels zo optimaal mogelijk behandeld worden, door kennis en kunnen over de kindertraumatologie door Nederlandse specialisten naar internationale maatstaven weer te geven’.In zestig hoofdstukken wordt door meer dan honderd specialisten een gedetailleerd en actueel overzicht gegeven over de preventie, diagnostiek en behandeling van ongevalsletsels bij kinderen.Dit boek is bestemd voor iedereen die met kinderongevallen te maken heeft: chirurgen, orthopedisch chirurgen, traumatologen, kinderartsen, intensivisten, (kinder)neurologen, revalidatieartsen, (kinder)fysiotherapeuten, SEH-artsen, huisartsen, verpleegkundigen en andere (kinder)specialisten.

Kinesins and Cancer
by Frank KozielskiThis interdisciplinary volume collates research work on kinesins and cancer. Authors attempt to validate members of the kinesin superfamily as potential targets for drug development in cancer chemotherapy. The work begins by highlighting the importance of kinesins, summarising current knowledge and how they are shown to be crucial for mitosis. Chapters go on to explore how this family of proteins are emerging as a novel target for chemotherapeutic intervention and drug development. Readers will learn how kinesins travel along microtubules to fulfill their many roles in intracellular transport or cell division. Several compounds that inhibit two mitotic kinesins (called Eg5 and CENP-E) have entered Phase I and II clinical trials and are explored in these chapters. Additional mitotic kinesins are currently being validated as drug targets, raising the possibility that the repertoire of kinesin-based drug targets may expand in the future. The book is suitable as a reference standard for the field of kinesins and cancer. It will interest those in academia and pharmaceutical companies, and anyone with an interest in the medical relevance of these proteins, which cutting edge methodologies are now enabling us to understand in astonishing detail.

Kinesiology Taping for Dogs
by Katja Bredlau-MorichDo-it-yourself physical therapy techniques for keeping your dog happy, active, and pain-free-now and for years to come.Kinesiology taping on humans is now commonplace—it is widely used by physical therapists, chiropractors, and personal trainers. The idea behind taping is that it provides incredible support and stabilization of ligaments and tendons while simultaneously stretching and flexing like a &“second skin&” to allow full range of motion. It can also activate or relax muscles, depending on its application.Taping is now also being successfully applied to other animals. Canine and equine physiotherapist Katja Bredlau-Morich, author ofKinesiology Taping for Horses,is a pioneer in bringing the method to the dog world. She believes that dogs can benefit hugely from taping techniques, and even better, dog owners and trainers can learn practical steps to using kinesiology tape themselves. In her terrific guidebook, Bredlau-Morich provides the ultimate reference for understanding both the uses of kinesiology tape and its numerous canine applications. With hundreds of color photographs and step-by-step instructions for the do-it-yourselfer, her book explains the following forms of kinesiology taping:MuscleScarFasciaIn addition, numerous case studies demonstrate how taping can change a dog's life, keeping him a happy, active, pain-free companion for years to come.

Kinetic Anatomy (Third Edition)
by Robert BehnkeCreated primarily for those who will work in physical activity fields, the third edition of Kinetic Anatomy continues to building on its previous editions to assert itself as the ideal resource for learning structural anatomy and how it affects movement. The text gives students a firm concept of musculoskeletal anatomy by systematically assembling each component of the human body. Layer by layer, readers will study bones, ligaments, joints, and muscles on the bones, as well as the nerves and blood vessels that supply these muscles that are essential for movement. Kinetic Anatomy, Third Edition, includes coverage of three major structures that are not often considered when studying the anatomy of movement: the brain, heart, and lungs. As the centerpieces for the nervous, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems, these structures are essential to human movement and are highlighted throughout the text where appropriate. In addition, other fundamental features make this resource a valuable tool for learning and teaching human anatomy: - A one-year subscription to Musculoskeletal Anatomy Review, an online anatomy program, provides an interactive forum for reviewing regional structural anatomy. - A new chapter on the head completes the regional approach followed in the text. - More information on muscle and motor units helps broaden information on movement potential in selected sport activities. - Expanded discussion on joint strength and movement and the function of muscles (agonists, antagonists, stabilizers, and synergists), levers, and exercise supports understanding of how the human body is constructed. - Full-color photos and illustrations enhance the learning experience. - New Functional Movement Exercises provide students with the opportunity for practical application of their studies by asking them to identify the prime mover, antagonist, fixator, and synergist muscle in a particular movement. - Hands On exercises throughout the book offer students practice in physically identifying anatomical structures on themselves or on a partner. Included with each new text is a key code allowing students one-year access to the online anatomy program Musculoskeletal Anatomy Review. This engaging supplement to the text offers a regional review of structural anatomy with exceptionally detailed, high-quality graphic images--the majority provided by Primal Pictures. Students can mouse over muscles and click for muscle identification, and each chapter features a pretest and posttest evaluation to help students pinpoint knowledge gaps and test their retention. The pretest can be taken multiple times and is generated randomly so it will never be the same, but the posttest may be taken only once. Test results can be printed and turned in so instructors have the option to use the tests as a grading tool. To further facilitate learning, each chapter in the book concludes with a review of the key terms referred to in the chapter, suggested learning activities, and review questions in multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank formats. The answers to the questions are provided at the end of the book. For instructors, a new image bank accompanies the updated instructor guide and test package to aid in delivering the course content. Kinetic Anatomy, Third Edition, is an outstanding introductory resource for those who plan to specialize in any field related to physical activity. Readers will learn what structures are involved in movement and how those structures should function, allowing them to identify problems and correct them to enhance physical activity.
