Onderbeenklachten: In de praktijk van (sport)fysiotherapeuten, trainers en verzorgers (Orthopedische casuïstiek)
by Koos Van NugterenOnderbeenpijn is vaak moeilijk te diagnosticeren. Er kan sprake zijn van een orthopedische aandoening bijvoorbeeld door overbelasting. Er zijn echter veel andere oorzaken bekend van onderbeenpijn zoals vasculaire of reumatische afwijkingen. Daar komt nog bij dat de achterliggende pathologie zich niet altijd in het onderbeen bevindt maar meer naar proximaal. Dit alles kan voor de orthopedisch georiënteerde (para)medicus verraderlijke valkuilen opleveren. Daarom worden er in deze uitgave van ‘Orthopedische Casuïstiek’ naast orthopedische letsels/blessures ook enkele andere vormen van pathologie besproken die onderbeenpijn kunnen veroorzaken.Aan bod komen: stressfracturen, compartimentsyndroom, mediaal tibiaal stresssyndroom, spierscheur, claudicatio intermittens, a. poplitea compressiesyndroom, diepe veneuze trombose, paralyse van onderbeenspieren door lumbale pathologie, fibrose in de kuit, syndesmoseletsel van de enkel, peesrupturen, proximale tibiofibulaire artritis, tendinopathieën van de achillespees en de mm. peronei, en verschillende enkelfracturen.Zoals gebruikelijk in de boekenreeks van Orthopedische Casuïstiek wordt ieder onderwerp besproken aan de hand van patiëntencasuïstiek uit de dagelijkse praktijk.De tekst is rijk geïllustreerd met educatieve tekeningen en foto’s. Bijlage I achterin het boek toont een handige tabel van moeilijk te differentiëren aandoeningen met hun symptomen. Bijlage II toont twee oefenprogramma’s ter behandeling van de mid-portion achillespeestendinopathie en bijlage III geeft een overzicht van de innervatie en segmentatie van het onderbeen.Het boek is in het bijzonder bestemd voor (sport)fysiotherapeuten, kinesitherapeuten, verzorgers van een sportvereniging, (sport)artsen en orthopeden.

Ondernemen in de zorg: Kennis en kunde bij het opzetten van een paramedische praktijk
by Henny Lienden Marije PoelWanneer je als paramedicus een praktijk begint, is er veel om over na te denken en veel te om over te beslissen. Hoe je klanten krijgt, bijvoorbeeld. En of je het financieel rond kunt krijgen.In deze tweede druk van Ondernemen in de zorg, die geheel is geactualiseerd, worden acht competenties besproken die je nodig hebt om als ondernemer eengoede kans van slagen te hebben. De drie pijlers hiervan zijn het analyseren van de omgeving (omgevingsanalyse), het afstemmen van vraag en aanbod (marketing) en het formuleren en realiseren van financiële verwachtingen.Deze drie pijlers zijn zeer nauw met elkaar verbonden. Je kunt pas succesvol zijn als je weet wat er in de samenleving leeft, als je weet hoe de voorkeur van klanten bepaald is, en als je kans ziet voldoende klanten te krijgen die voldoende omzet opleveren. Daarnaast zijn er de competenties die randvoorwaardelijk zijn voor ondernemerschap: het werken aan kwaliteit en het toepassen van het juridisch kader horen daarbij. Evenals het kiezen en actueel houden van een rechtsvorm, het adequaat voeren van een administratie en het werken aan ethisch besef. En als basis voor het ondernemerschap geldt de persoonlijkheid van de ondernemer zelf.De onderlinge samenhang tussen de competenties is groot. Verandert er bijvoorbeeld iets in de omgeving, dan kan dat gevolgen hebben voor de financiële, juridische of administratieve situatie. Ondernemen in de zorg toont deze samenhang aan en leert de startende ondernemer op een proactieve manier met de competenties om te gaan.

One Doctor
by Brendan ReillyReminiscent of the eloquent writings of physicians Abraham Verghese, Atul Gawande, and Siddhartha Mukherjee, this compelling story is told by a unique voice in American medicine, Brendan Reilly, a distinguished internist whose work was profiled at length by Malcolm Gladwell in his bestselling book Blink.Only One Doctor is a riveting first-person narrative--a true story that reads like a novel and recreates Dr. Reilly's present-day, moment-to-moment "E.R."-like dramas with patients, families, and medical staff at the Medical Center. At the heart of Only One Doctor is an unsolved medical mystery that haunts Reilly: the loss of a legendary engineer friend and patient, Fred, who died suddenly after he began to see angels and hear voices. Fred was renowned for many inventions, including a navigational device that was removed from Amelia Earhart's plane before she took off on her last flight. As Fred sought to learn Earhart's fate, Reilly searches for the reason behind Fred's death, piecing together his last days to arrive at a chilling revelation. Lessons learned from Fred's case resonate throughout Reilly's experiences with other patients in the book, ultimately leading to the saving of thousands of lives. From the cases in Only One Doctor, patients and caretakers learn what works and what doesn't in today's health care and how to avoid falling through the cracks. As compelling as an episode of House, written with the skill of How We Die and My Own Country, Only One Doctor is a wrenching, brilliant, inspiring read.
One Doctor: Close Calls, Cold Cases, and the Mysteries of Medicine
by Brendan ReillyAn epic story told by a unique voice in American medicine, One Doctor describes life-changing experiences in the career of a distinguished physician.An epic story told by a unique voice in American medicine, One Doctor describes life-changing experiences in the career of a distinguished physician. In riveting first-person prose, Dr. Brendan Reilly takes us to the front lines of medicine today. Whipsawed by daily crises and frustrations, Reilly must deal with several daunting challenges simultaneously: the extraordinary patients under his care on the teeming wards of a renowned teaching hospital; the life-threatening illnesses of both of his ninety-year-old parents; and the tragic memory of a cold case from long ago that haunts him still. As Reilly's patients and their families survive close calls, struggle with heartrending decisions, and confront the limits of medicine's power to cure, One Doctor lays bare a fragmented, depersonalized, business-driven health-care system where real caring is hard to find. Every day, Reilly sees patients who fall through the cracks and suffer harm because they lack one doctor who knows them well and relentlessly advocates for their best interests. Filled with fascinating characters in New York City and rural New England--people with dark secrets, mysterious illnesses, impossible dreams, and many kinds of courage--One Doctor tells their stories with sensitivity and empathy, reminding us of professional values once held dear by all physicians. But medicine has changed enormously during Reilly's career, for both better and worse, and One Doctor is a cautionary tale about those changes. It is also a hopeful, inspiring account of medicine's potential to improve people's lives, Reilly's quest to understand the "truth" about doctoring, and a moving testament to the difference one doctor can make.
One Drop of Blood: A Novel
by Thomas HollandAs the director of the Department of the Army's Central Identification Laboratory, Robert Dean "Kel" McKelvey has made a career solving some of the country's most complex identification cases. The CIL is responsible for identifying all U.S. war dead from battlefields old and new around the world. The caseload is endless, the endgame invaluable. Kel's work -- the examination of a bone or bone fragment -- may bring blessed closure to thousands of military families and loved ones left behind. But after fifteen years at the CIL, Kel is fast approaching emotional meltdown. And that's when he encounters his thorniest case yet: the recovery of Jimmie Carl Trimble, a soldier from Arkansas who died a hero's death during the Vietnam War. When a rare DNA sequence turns up at both the Army and FBI labs, it points to the unthinkable: a link between Trimble and a forty-year-old unsolved racial killing in the Arkansas delta. Partnered uneasily with the volatile FBI Special Agent Michael Levine, Kel must peel back decades of silence to reveal a complex web of stolen identity, betrayal, patriotism, collusion, and lies. Taking readers deep inside the fascinating world of military and civilian forensic science, One Drop of Blood is a pitch-perfect thriller by a talented new author who knows the terrain better than anyone.

One Health and the Politics of Antimicrobial Resistance
by Laura H. KahnDoes the use of low-dose antibiotics in livestock put human health at risk?Zoonoses—infectious diseases, such as SARS and mad cow, that originate in animals and spread to humans—reveal how intimately animal and human health are linked. Complicating this relationship further, when livestock are given antibiotics to increase growth, it can lead to resistant bacteria. Unfortunately, there are few formal channels for practitioners of human medicine and veterinary medicine to communicate about threats to public health. To address this problem, Dr. Laura H. Kahn and her colleagues are promoting the One Health concept, which seeks to increase communication and collaboration between professionals in human, animal, and environmental health.In One Health and the Politics of Antimicrobial Resistance, Dr. Kahn investigates the use of antibiotics and the surge in antimicrobial resistance in food animals and humans from a One Health perspective. Although the medical community has blamed the problem on agricultural practices, the agricultural community insists that antibiotic resistance is the result of indiscriminate use of antibiotics in human medicine. Dr. Kahn argues that this blame game has fueled the politics of antibiotic resistance and hindered the development of effective policies to address the worsening crisis.Combining painstaking research with unprecedented access to international data, the book analyzes the surprising outcomes of differing policy approaches to antibiotic resistance around the globe. By integrating the perspectives of both medicine and agriculture and exploring the history and science behind the widespread use of growth-promoting antibiotics, One Health and the Politics of Antimicrobial Resistance examines the controversy in a unique way while offering policy recommendations that all sides can accept.

Sixty per cent of these human deaths occur in Asia. The number of animals, especially dogs, who die of rabies is uncalculated. To work towards the global target of eliminating dog-mediated human rabies deaths, the rabies community is applying the One Health approach by jointly focusing on humans and dogs. Written by a multidisciplinary group of scholars and rabies control programme specialists, this book is a collection of experiences and observations on the challenges and successes along the path to rabies control and prevention in Asia. The book: -grounds chapters in solid scientific theory, but retains a direct, practice-focused and inspirational approach; -provides numerous examples of lessons learned and experience-based knowledge gained across countries at different levels of rabies elimination; -brings together and highlights the practices of a strong, international rabies network that works according to the One Health concept. Covering perspectives from almost a dozen Asian countries and a wide range of sectors and disciplines, such as healthcare facilities, veterinary services, laboratories, public health institutes, wildlife research centres and academia, this book is an invaluable resource for rabies practitioners and scholars, but also those working in the wider fields of disease control and cross-sectoral One Health.
One Health for Veterinary Nurses and Technicians: An Introduction
by Helen Ballantyne Emi Barker Paula Boyden Hayley Burdge Kirsty Cavill Marta Costa Carla Finzel Joanna Hockenhull Nicola Lakeman Robyn Lowe Ellie WestThe One Health concept recognizes that the health of humans, animals and the environment are interlinked, and that maintaining optimal health for all is dependent on a collaborative and multidisciplinary approach at a local, national and global level. This book provides information and guidance for veterinary nurses in understanding both the scope of this concept and their role within it. Beginning with an overview of the global issues faced, One Health for Veterinary Nurses and Technicians focuses on providing an insight into how One Health can be applied within a veterinary practice and in the local community. Translating this important concept and making it relevant for veterinary nurses and their clients, this book: - Covers both communicable and non-communicable disease, as well as public health, climate change, sustainability and the importance of the human-animal bond. - Includes case studies to help to translate theory into practice. - Provides questions to help promote discussion and implement change. Reviewing the interrelations between humans, animals and their environment, this book is an approachable and useable introduction to One Health and is suitable for veterinary nurses and students in the clinical and non-clinical environment One Health for Veterinary Nurses and Technicians has been written by contributors based within the United Kingdom. However, the content is applicable to those working internationally within a veterinary environment and will also be of interest to other allied healthcare professionals.
One Health: Food Safety and Security, and International and National Plans for Implementation of One Health Activities (Current Topics in Microbiology and Immunology #366)
by John S. Mackenzie, Martyn Jeggo, Peter Daszak and Juergen A. RichtOne Health is an emerging concept that aims to bring together human, animal, and environmental health. Achieving harmonized approaches for disease detection and prevention is difficult because traditional boundaries of medical and veterinary practice must be crossed. In the 19th and early 20th centuries this was not the case—then researchers like Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch and physicians like William Osler and Rudolph Virchow crossed the boundaries between animal and human health. More recently Calvin Schwabe revised the concept of One Medicine. This was critical for the advancement of the field of epidemiology, especially as applied to zoonotic diseases. The future of One Health is at a crossroads with a need to more clearly define its boundaries and demonstrate its benefits. Interestingly the greatest acceptance of One Health is seen in the developing world where it is having significant impacts on control of infectious diseases.
One Health: People, Animals, and the Environment (ASM Books)
by Stanley Maloy Ronald AtlasEmerging infectious diseases are often due to environmental disruption, which exposes microbes to a different niche that selects for new virulence traits and facilitates transmission between animals and humans. Thus, health of humans also depends upon health of animals and the environment – a concept called One Health. This book presents core concepts, compelling evidence, successful applications, and remaining challenges of One Health approaches to thwarting the threat of emerging infectious disease. Written by scientists working in the field, this book will provide a series of "stories" about how disruption of the environment and transmission from animal hosts is responsible for emerging human and animal diseases. Explains the concept of One Health and the history of the One Health paradigm shift. Traces the emergence of devastating new diseases in both animals and humans. Presents case histories of notable, new zoonoses, including West Nile virus, hantavirus, Lyme disease, SARS, and salmonella. Links several epidemic zoonoses with the environmental factors that promote them. Offers insight into the mechanisms of microbial evolution toward pathogenicity. Discusses the many causes behind the emergence of antibiotic resistance. Presents new technologies and approaches for public health disease surveillance. Offers political and bureaucratic strategies for promoting the global acceptance of One Health.
