[PDF] Automated Drug Delivery in Anesthesia 1st Edition (2020) by Dana Copot

Description

From x-rays to lasers to magnetic resonance imaging, developments in basic physics research have been transformed into medical technologies for imaging, surgery and therapy at an ever-accelerating pace. Physics has joined with genetics and molecular biology to define much of what is modern in modern medicine and allied health.

Reviews

This highly anticipated book focuses on clinical trials in oncology, ranging from early, middle, and late phase trials to advanced topics such as precision medicine and immunotherapy. This textbook is expected to be extremely useful for statisticians and investigators who have been doing clinical trials for years, and for future clinical researchers and statisticians who are eager to learn about the design, conduct, analysis, and interpretation of clinical trials in oncology.

Martin A. Finkel, DO, FACOP, FAAP, is a Professor of Pediatrics and the Medical Director and co-founder/director of the Child Abuse Research Education & Service (CARES) Institute at Rowan University – School of Osteopathic Medicine (Formerly University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey). In 1987 he established a University Center of Excellence, which formed the nidus of what has matured into the CARES Institute. In 2004 the CARES Institute was designated as a statewide resource to inform best practices in the delivery of medical and mental health diagnostic and treatment services. Dr. Finkel is an internationally recognized authority on the medical evaluation and treatment of the child alleged to have been sexually abused. Dr. Finkel was instrumental in developing New Jersey’s statewide network of child abuse diagnostic and treatment centers, the first legislatively created state system of regional centers in the country. These centers of excellence provide services for sexually and physically abused children and educate professionals within the medical, child protection, law enforcement, and mental health communities on the evaluation of the child victim. He has been a pioneer in the use of videocolposcopy for the assessment and documentation of residual to sexual abuse. He is the author of the first scientific paper published in the medical literature on the healing and interpretation of acute genital and anal trauma. He has published numerous articles and authored book chapters. The 3rd edition of his textbook Medical Evaluation of the Sexually Abused Child: A Practical Guide, published in 2009 by the American Academy of Pediatrics, was translated in 2011 into Chinese as the first medical reference textbook on child sexual abuse published in China. A Japanese version was published in 2012, a Spanish edition in August of 2015, Pakistani edition in 2016, and an Arabic edition is under development. A 4th edition of this text will be released in 2019. Dr. Finkel has been appointed by eight Governors to co-chair with the Commissioner of Children and Families, New Jersey’s Task Force on Child Abuse and Neglect. He was a founding commissioner of New Jersey’s Children’s Trust Fund to prevent child abuse.

He completed a 6-year term on the national board of Prevent Child Abuse America. He has been actively involved with the development of a training curriculum for developing countries for the International Society on the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (ISPCAN). In 2010 he was elected to a 6 year term as an ISPCAN Councilor and in 2012 elected to the Executive committee as Treasurer. In 2012 he received the Ray E. Helfer Society lifetime achievement award and the United States, Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families, Commissioner’s award.

Previously, Dr. Giardino served for 12 years on the National Review Board for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, where he chaired the Research Subcommittee, was elected Vice-Chair, and introduced the concept of high reliability as a quality improvement approach to work toward the response, and ultimately the prevention, of child sexual abuse in the church environment.
This book is an excellent resource written for any non-specialist looking to further his or her understanding of pediatric urology and surgery – especially primary care providers, general practitioners, pediatricians, students, and trainees. … This book is a fantastic resource for non-specialists. The highlights of the book are the excellent diagrams and clinical pictures in each chapter.” (Puneeta Ramachandra, Doody’s Book Reviews, September 18, 2020)
