Managing Innovation In Healthcare

Managing Innovation In Healthcare

By: James Barlow

The book would be a great text for advanced healthcare students, as it is chock-full of fair-minded and complete discussions of different scholarly views. The book contains the musts of excellent text books too: ample caselets, boxes and figures that illustrate key concepts; chapter summaries; and a distillation of key concepts and further reading suggestions stud every chapter. It is useful for practitioners too, with excellent text and case examples of how different nations approach innovation and quality measurement — e.g. pay for performance models — and full discussions of regulations of drugs and devices. All in all, a terrific book for those of us frustrated by the plethora of ‘shoulds’ and the shortages of ‘how tos’ in healthcare innovations.'Regina HerzlingerHarvard Business SchoolAcross the world, the demands placed on health systems are growing rapidly. Developed countries face the challenge of providing services to an ageing population with changing health needs, while countries with developing health systems must find ways of ensuring their populations are provided with access to healthcare. Innovative thinking is essential to meet these twin challenges, but innovation is both a cause and cure of many struggles in healthcare — we need it, but it is hard to manage and the introduction of new technology can lead to higher costs.Using real-life examples and case studies from around the world, this book introduces the latest thinking on understanding and managing healthcare innovation more effectively. It does this from the perspective of governments responsible for shaping health policy, healthcare organisations providing services and juggling competing demands, and from the perspective of the industries that supply the new drugs, devices and other technologies.Managing Innovation in Healthcare is the perfect accompaniment for MSc, PhD and MBA students on health policy, management and public health courses, as well as managers, consultants and policy makers involved in healthcare services in both the public and private sector.

Workbook of Diagnostics for Cardiac Implantable Devices

By: David L. Hayes, MD,James D. Ryan, RN,Siva K. Mulpuru, MD,Nora E. Olson, RN,Tracy L. Webster, RN,Yong-Mei Cha, MD,Mark J. Henrich, RN,Jon M. Meyer, RN,Michael J. Hillestad, RN

To understand cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) management, the clinician requires a foundation of information regarding CIED purpose, design and function, as well as experience in interpreting CIED output, i.e., electrical assessment of the system, programmed parameters, electrograms, and markers. In addition, one must be able to correlate and interpret the accompanying electrocardiographic tracing with the patient’s clinical presentation. For students of CIED management, be they beginners in the field or more advanced, there is always an appreciation for case studies, i.e., real-world examples of managing a specific device-related issue. To this end, this workbook of 61 device management case studies has been prepared by six talented RN Device Specialists and three physicians involved in the Heart Rhythm Service practice at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Included in the case studies are examples from pacemakers, ICDs and CRT devices, illustrating interpretation and management of a variety of device behaviors, some with abnormal function that requires diagnosis and management approach, and others that display appropriate behavior of a specific device algorithm that may be confusing for the CIED student. ~David L. Hayes, MD, and the contributors – adapted from the Preface. -Perfect for exam prep, training across CIED devices, and as a reference to keep on hand in the lab. -Real-world examples of managing a specific device-related issue. -Includes straightforward clinical management issues to more complex issues that may be related to a specific device algorithm.

Integrative Mental Health Care: A Therapist's Handbook

By: James Lake

Making sense of complementary and alternative treatments in mental health care. In mental health care, as in medical care, more and more clinicians are turning to unconventional assessment and treatment approaches to evaluate and treat their patients in the most effective way possible. But how is a clinician to makes sense of the range of complementary and alternative treatments (CAM), and when is it appropriate and safe to use conventional therapies alongside them? In this practical resource, Dr. Lake, a pioneer in the field of integrative mental healthcare, teaches readers how to integrate conventional mental healthcare—drugs and psychotherapy—with complementary and alternative approaches, including vitamins, minerals, amino acids, essential fatty acids and other natural products, mind-body practices, light therapy, music, biofeedback, energy therapies, acupuncture, and others. This is a concise, evidence-based guide to the day-to-day management of common mental health problems using an integrative approach.

Adelson's The Pathology of Homicide: A Guide for Forensic Pathologists and Homicide Investigators (2nd Edition)

By: James R. Gill

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Adelson's The Pathology of Homicide: A Guide for Forensic Pathologists and Homicide Investigators (2nd Edition)

By: James R. Gill

Dr. Lester Adelson's original The Pathology of Homicide has been described as a "superb textbook" and "without doubt…the best written book of its type in the English language" by Dr. Charles Hirsch. This new, revised edition preserves Dr. Adelson's eloquent and articulate voice, while bringing the subject matter up to date. Since the first edition was published in 1974, Dr. Adelson’s book was a treasured text among many forensic pathologists. The “aging” of the book, however, made it less appealing to the new generation of forensic pathologists, and Dr. Adelson’s important contribution to forensic pathology was at risk of being lost. Although much has changed in forensic pathology in the ensuing nearly fifty years since it was first written, much also has stayed the same. In this new edition, the author, Dr. James Gill—Chief Medical Examiner of the State of Connecticut and past president of the National Association of Medical Examiners—preserves the voice, vision, and wisdom of Dr. Adelson while updating the forensic pathology material. The author has included nearly 700 all new color images. In addition, the references have been updated with over 4,400 citations. Six new chapters and sections have been added, including death certification, elder abuse, pediatric head injury, drugs of misuse, histopathology, and bereavement. Other updates are included on DNA technology, CT scans, and novel drugs. Although primarily concerned with homicides, there is the need to be able to recognize natural, accidental, and suicidal deaths; therefore, these topics are interspersed in the text to give the appropriate context. This book will help the reader understand the details of injuries and how a person was injured, why they died, and how these injuries, perhaps at first blush seemingly insignificant, can shed new light on a death investigation. It is the author’s hope to get this book to the next generation of forensic pathologists.
