Sexually Transmissible Infections in Clinical Practice: A problem-based approach


Alexander McMillan (Author)

Type=PDF
Size=2.2MB

Book Details

  • Paperback: 259 pages
  • Publisher: Springer; 1st Edition. edition (October 19, 2009)
  • Language: English
  • ISBN-10: 1848825560
  • ISBN-13: 978-1848825567

Book Description

Undergraduate medical education has moved away from the former didactic style of teaching to one of problem-based learning. The specialty of Genitourinary Medicine (GUM) that includes sexually transmissible infections (STIs) lends itself to the latter; self-directed learning. This is particularly important as time allocated to the specialty in most medical curricula is short, and the student cannot possibly cover all the topics with which he/she is expected to be familiar. Several excellent textbooks on GUM exist, but they mostly follow the traditional format, with emphasis on individual diseases rather than case-scenarios. The books that follow a more syndromic approach do not pose questions to help the student understand how the material presented can be translated into clinical practice. As specialist clinics become more hard-pressed, family medicine practitioners are thus becoming increasingly involved in the management of STIs and there is without doubt now a need for a book specifically designed for problem solving in STI management.

Oxford Handbook of Genitourinary Medicine, HIV, and AIDS


Richard Pattman, Michael Snow, Pauline Handy, K Nathan Sankar, Babiker Elawad - Oxford Handbook of Genitourinary Medicine, HIV, and AIDS
Oxford University Press | ISBN: 0198520778 | 2005-09-01 | File type: CHM | 580 pages | 3.37 mb

Genitourinary medicine (GUM) is an expanding specialty which is primarily related to the treatment and prevention of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). A number of GUM departments also offer other sexual health services such as contraception, sexual dysfunction and health promotion. Services are provided by multidisciplinary teams which include doctors, nurses, health advisers (who carry out partner notification and counselling), receptionists, laboratory staff and secretarial support. The "Oxford Handbook of Genitourinary Medicine HIV and AIDS" provides practical, evidence-based information on the specialty, covering medico-legal, ethical, and procedural issues.

The first section deals with routine management, special situations and clinical and laboratory processes. The second section covers genitourinary conditions in a disease-orientated style, including sexually transmitted diseases and other genitourinary problems. The third section on HIV provides a contemporary epidemiological overview of this infection, basic viral biology and pathogenesis, a disease-orientated description of conditions both directly related and opportunistic, and their management, and data on special situations such as pregnancy.

Emergencies in Urology is a comprehensive textbook covering one of the few remaining white spots on the map of urological literature. To date only a small number of publications have been dedicated to the topic of urgent and emergent problems in urology – important as these are in our daily clinical life.Therefore the editors, both of them internationally recognized urological experts, have taken the effort to present an in-depth study into virtually every possible urgent urological situation with which a urologist may be confronted today. Consequently, the book includes chapters on topics such as urological trauma, urosepsis, urinary obstruction, oncological emergencies, intra- and postoperative complications, acute problems in children, and many more.

Imaging of Urogenital Diseases: A Color Atlas


Lucio Olivetti, Luigi Grazioli, "Imaging of Urogenital Diseases: A Color Atlas"
Springer | 2009 | ISBN: 8847013437 | 496 pages | PDF | 56,5 MB

Nowadays, there is tremendous interest in an integrated imaging approach to urogenital diseases. This interest is tightly linked to the recent technological advances in ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and nuclear medicine. Significant improvements in image quality have brought numerous clinical and diagnostic benefits to every medical specialty.

This book is organized in nine parts and twenty-seven chapters. The first six chapters review the normal macroscopic and radiological anatomy of the urogenital system. In subsequent chapters, urogenital malformations, lithiasis, as well as infectious and neoplastic disorders of the kidneys, bladder, urinary collecting system, and male and female genitalia are extensively discussed. The pathologic, clinical, and diagnostic (instrumental and not) features of each disease are described, with particular emphasis, in neoplastic pathologies, on primitive tumors and disease relapse. The statics and dynamics of the pelvic floor are addressed as well and there is a detailed presentation of state-of-the-art interventional radiology.

The volume stands out in the panorama of the current medical literature by its rich iconography. Over 1000 anatomical illustrations and images, with detailed captions, pre ample evidence of how imaging can guide the therapeutic decision-making process. Imaging of Urogenital Diseases is an up-to-date text for radiologists, urologists, gynecologists, and oncologists, but it also certainly pres an invaluable tool for general practitioners. Its succinct, well-reasoned approach integrates old and new knowledge to obtain diagnostic algorithms. This information will direct the clinician to the imaging modality best-suited to yielding the correct diagnosis.

ACR Learning Files- Genitourinary

ACR's popular Learning File® CD-ROM Series offers a unique learning experience for practicing radiologists and members-in-training. The series is designed with a custom interface and features image manipulation, including window/level, pan/zoom; automatic scaling to your screen resolution; flexible control of text and image display; easier text printing; and improved self-evaluation mode.
The American College of Radiology began producing the ACR Learning File more than 25 years ago. The first versions were produced on film as full-size reproductions of original cases contributed by ACR members. Videodisc versions were introduced in the late 1980s, followed by the CD-ROM in the mid 1990s. The Learning File is constantly being revised to keep pace with the dynamic nature of radiology. It remains a volunteer effort by ACR members who contribute their time and case material to ensure that this essential resource remains relevant and viable. Though the media has changed, the message remains the same: Reviewing the Learning File is an effective way to prepare for the American Board of Radiology oral examination or Certificate of Added Qualification exams or to sharpen your clinical skills.

Truly one of the most successful volumes in the specialty of urology, the structure is well designed, the operations included cover a wide range of procedures, and most noticeable is the very high quality of the explanatory figures, sometimes by just browsing through them you get 80% of what to do... the text is well written and concise. You will find alternative approaches for many operations. It is impossible to gather all of the urological craft in one set, but this one succeeds in collecting a large chunk of it. I highly recommend it for all residents and urologists alike.

Summary: Great urology atlas.

This is the best adult urology atlas. It covers most of the basic urologic procedures and a well put together way. If you do surgery on the GU tract, this is a must have book.

Medical Therapy in Urology

 

Medical Therapy in Urology By Iqbal S. Shergill, Manit Arya, Philippe R. Grange, Anthony R. Mundy
Publisher: Springer 2009-12-18 | 241 Pages | ISBN: 1848827032 | PDF | 1.6 MB
The future of urology is changing from being based around surgical urology to an outpatient, or "office based" system, based on medical management of urological conditions. Furthermore, the medical student curriculum appears to have less and less emphasis on the teaching of urology.

Last year, there were almost one million seven hundred thousand hospital consultations involving urological symptoms in the UK, and an estimated 5 million consultations in general practice. With such a significant proportion of care being delivered for urological pathology, 80% of which can be managed medically, it is crucial that there is a resource available to providers that will serve as a quick and useful guide to the medical management of urological disease
