Законы женского здоровья. 68 уникальных методик, которые позволят сохранить красоту, силу и выносливость тела в любом возрасте
5
В течение своей жизни каждая женщина проходит несколько важных этапов, которые напрямую влияют не только на ее эмоциональное, но и на физическое здоровье.

А беременность и роды могут уже значительно серьезнее повлиять на состояние и внешности, и внутренних органов. Следующий переломный момент – возраст 40–45 лет, когда неожиданно меняется гормональный фон. Далее следуют период пременопаузы, климакс и проблемы почтенного возраста. Доктор Бубновский в своей книге подробно описывает, как с точки зрения здоровья меняется женское тело с течением времени и на что важно заранее обращать внимание, чтобы болезни не развились. Кроме того, он предлагает пошаговые методики восстановления в самых разных жизненных ситуациях. Каждое упражнение проиллюстрировано серией подробных фотографий, отмечены показания и противопоказания.

Инфекционные заболевания. Руководство для практических врачей
5
В поликлинику обращаются пациенты с самыми разнообразными жалобами и симптомами, и уже при первой встрече с больным врач общей практики должен заподозрить наличие инфекционной патологии, так как это определяет раннюю диагностику, правильную терапию и своевременное проведение необходимых противоэпидемических мероприятий, что обеспечивает безопасность окружающих людей. Именно поэтому амбулаторная служба всегда остается ведущей в этом направлении. В данном руководстве мы попытались структурировать и изложить основные сведения об инфекционных заболеваниях, часто встречающихся в общей врачебной практике, осветить особенности клинической картины, лабораторные и инструментальные методы диагностики. Отдельно проанализированы стандартные ошибки при ведении больных с инфекционной патологией. Все эти параметры имеют огромное значение и определяют тактику лечения и прогноз заболевания. Мы надеемся, что наша книга поможет участковым терапевтам и врачам общей практики в повседневной работе с данной категорией больных.

Dementia
5
Our perceptions of dementia and what dementia care should constitute have changed dramatically over the past 20 years. Research has uncovered a mass of information concerning all aspects of dementia. This wealth of information should be reflected in a dramatic change, indeed a metamorphosis, in the way people with dementia are cared for. No such change has occurred. Dementia – Metamorphosis in Care will address the need for change and provide practitioners with a means of understanding why adhering to the old model – the medical approach – can be damaging in current care settings. Practitioners are advised on what is needed from them in order that they can positively influence the lives of those living with dementia. The importance of the role of professional carer and the responsibility they carry regarding whether or not care improves, is underlined throughout the book.
Managing your Patients' Data in the Neonatal and Pediatric ICU

Внебольничная пневмония
5
В настоящее время, несмотря на доступность высокотехнологичных методов обследования и эффективных антимикробных средств, отмечается рост числа больных с тяжелым течением и неблагоприятным прогнозом внебольничной пневмонии (ВП). Так, по данным патологоанатомической службы взрослой сети лечебно-профилактических учреждений города Москвы, за последние годы ВП была причиной смерти почти в 10% случаев. Столь высокая частота осложненного течения ВП обусловлена такими факторами, как возраст больных, их коморбидность, поздняя диагностика и ошибочная терапия на амбулаторном этапе и др. Практическое руководство А.Л. Вёрткина и соавторов будет полезно в первую очередь терапевтам, врачам общей практики и специалистам, ведущим амбулаторный прием.
