Surgical Palliative Care: Integrating Palliative Care

Editat de Anne C. Mosenthal, Geoffrey P. Dunn
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 dec 2019
Palliative care has become increasingly important across the spectrum of healthcare, and with it, the need for education and training of a broad range of medical practitioners not previously associated with this field of care. Part of the Integrating Palliative Care series, this volume on surgical palliative care guides readers through the core palliative skills and knowledge needed to deliver high value care for patients with life-limiting, critical, and terminal illness under surgical care. Chapters explore the historical, philosophical, and spiritual principles of surgical palliative care, and follow the progression of the seriously ill surgical patient's journey from the pre-operative encounter, to the invasive procedure, to the post-operative setting, and on to survivorship. An overview of the future of surgical palliative care education and research rounds out the text. Surgical Palliative Care is an ideal resource for surgeons, surgical nurses, intensivists, and other practitioners who wish to learn more about integrating palliative care into the surgical field.

Recenzii

I would recommend this book to any surgeon so that they might recognize the opportunities that exist to provide better (palliative care-inclusive) care for their patients. And I would make it compulsory reading for every surgical trainee and also those training to be palliative care specialists, the latter because they need insight into the surgeon's position and difficulties when the referrals do come.
This unique book is unparalleled in its thorough coverage of this topic [...] Surgeons are often faced with hard decisions about the care they deliver in terminal or life-limiting situations, and this book acknowledges those issues and provides useful guidance for navigating them.
