Category : Medical
Languages : fr
Pages : 252
Book Description
Dans le monde actuel, les situations stressantes sont innombrables. Le stress se situe non seulement dans les évènements traumatiques et les catastrophes naturelles mais aussi dans les tensions de la vie quotidienne et de l'environnement. Prenant leur origine dans le cerveau, les réactions aux stress libèrent une cascade de neuromédiateurs stimulant des systèmes neuro-hormonaux actifs sur l'appareil cardio-circulatoire. Cet ouvrage fait le point sur les différentes sources des stress, leurs principaux effets neurologiques, endocriniens et cardiovasculaires, les pathologies qui en découlent et les diverses possibilités thérapeutiques, cardiologiques et psychiatriques. Les mécanismes des différentes pathologies sont étudiés : ischémie myocardique, syndrome coronarien, cardiomyopathie, arythmie, HTA, insuffisance cardiaque, mort subite, dépression. Chacune est illustrée d'un ou plusieurs cas cliniques et de nombreux tracés. Dans une langue claire et concise, ce livre s'adresse particulièrement aux cardiologues, praticiens ou en formation, aux psychiatres et psychothérapeutes mais aussi aux médecins généralistes qui y trouveront une référence pour leur pratique quotidienne.

Management of Cardiovascular Disease in Women
Author: Hanna Z. MieszczanskaPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1447155173
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 470
Book Description
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in women in the US, with more women dying from heart disease than men. Women may have different presentation from men and often need a different approach to diagnosis and treatment. There are also unique topics of management of heart disease in women, including issues during pregnancy, lactation, and menopause. Many different health care providers, as well as cardiologists are involved in treating these patients. A manual reviewing diagnosis and treatment of cardiac disease in women would help providers without specific cardiology training to deliver care with greater efficiency. A practical and comprehensive guide geared towards these providers would be a highly practical and valuable resource that would be utilized in everyday practice in offices that include urban clinics, general medicine offices, obstetrics and gynecology offices, as well as in the surgical subspecialties. This book will be a highly practical resource that can be directly applied to the issues that arise in everyday practice. There is no available book on the market that focuses on a broader approach to cardiac disease in women or focuses on non-cardiology providers (and their trainees) who have the need to know more about treatment of cardiovascular disease in women.

Well-being and Quality of Life
Author: Mukadder MollaogluPublisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 9535135139
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
The chapters in this book focus on the physical, social, and emotional components of the concept of quality of life. How diseases affect the quality of life of people is mainly discussed. The influence of diseases on quality of life in age-specific periods such as childhood, youth, and old age is also emphasized. In some non-disease-related environmental factors, specific social phenomena have also been analyzed. I hope that current research and research results in the book will be used to increase the quality of life by health professionals. This book will attract not only health workers but also environmentalists and social scientists and behavioral scientists.
