Despite a policy focus on involving patients in health care and increasing patient autonomy, much covert coercion of patients takes place in everyday healthcare. This book, by a leading patient activist, examines for the first time how the patient movement, which works to improve the quality of healthcare, can actually be considered an emancipation movement when led by its radical elements.

Total Cure: The Antidote to the Health Care Crisis
ISBN: 9780674057364 / Angielski / Miękka / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Proposals to reform the health care system typically focus on either increasing private insurance or expanding government-sponsored plans. Guaranteeing that everyone is insured, however, does not create a system with the quality of care patients want, the flexibility clinicians need, and the internal dynamics to continually improve the value of health care. In Total Cure, Hal Luft presents a comprehensive new proposal, SecureChoice, which does all that while providing affordable health insurance for every American. SecureChoice is a plan that restructures payment for medical...

CYP2D6 genetic polymorphisms and tramadol's action
ISBN: 9783639241150 / Angielski / Miękka / 292 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Despite recent advances in anaesthesia, postoperative analgesia remains a problem. This is compounded by the fact that fear of drug dependence exists with the use of conventional opioid analgesics. Therefore, there are needs for using new drugs such as tramadol hydrochloride. Due to its additional action on the monoaminergic system, this drug is also coined as an "atypical opioid." Tramadol is metabolised by the CYP2D6 enzyme which is one of the most polymorphic enzyme systems. Due to the wide interethnic variabilities in metabolising tramadol, a pharmacogenetic-pharmacokinetic study is...

This groundbreaking book offers evidence of a new perspective: lay people are the primary providers of health care.

These small social groups or "mediating structures" comprise the hidden non-professional health care system which is Cost Effective, Integral, and Enduring.

Pharmaceutical policy is the part of health policy that aims at addressing these problems and increasing access to safe, effective and affordable medicines for all patients. There...
