Description
Springer Oncologic Emergency Medicine Principles And Practice 2nd Edition 2021 by Tood K.
The expanded second edition of this key clinical reference provides the most up-to-date and comprehensive review of oncologic emergencies. It covers the diagnosis and management of the full range of emergencies caused directly by cancer and/or treatment, including chemotoxicity, radiotoxicity and post-surgical complications, as well as transplant-related issues and toxicities of novel antineoplastic agents and the new immunotherapies. The book also shows how the entire spectrum of clinical medicine is brought to bear in the care of cancer patients in the unique setting of the emergency department (ED), from health promotion and prevention, to treatment and palliative care. Recognizing the multiple, overlapping contexts in which emergency care of cancer patients occurs, the book addresses clinically crucial interdisciplinary topics such as the ethics of ED cancer care, analgesic misuse and abuse, informatics, quality improvement and more. Finally, perspectives on care system and social forces that shape ED cancer care, such as cancer care disparities and care models, frame the book as a whole. Edited and written by world-renowned experts in emergency medicine and oncology, the Second Edition of Oncologic Emergency Medicine: Principles and Practice is the definitive resource for emergency physicians, oncologists, internists, family physicians, emergency nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and policy makers as well as pre and postgraduate trainees._x000D_ Table of contents :- Part I Systems1 Epidemiology 2 Models of Care 3 Informatics 4 Quality Measures 5 Patient Navigation6 Nursing7 Palliative Social WorkPart II Prevention8 Tobacco Control9 Problem Drinking 10 Ionizing Radiation 11 Cervical Cancer Screening12 Lung Cancer Screening13 Colorectal Cancer Screening 14 Melanoma Screening Part III Evaluation and Treatment15 Acute Airway Obstruction 16 Central Nervous System 17 Pituitary Apoplexy18 Spinal Cord Compression19 Head and Neck 20 Ophthalmology21 Cardio-Oncology22 Superior Vena Cava Syndrome23 Pulmonary 24 Venous Thromboembolism25 Gastroenterology26 The Acute Abdomen27 Diarrhea 28 Constipation 29 Endocrinology and Metabolism30 Renal 31 Urology 32 Gynecology 33 Orthopedics 34 Dermatology 35 Pediatrics 36 Hyperleukocytosis and Leukostasis 37 Bleeding and Thrombosis 38 Infectious Disease 39 Febrile Neutropenia40 Neutropenic Enterocolitis 41 Sickle Cell Disease42 Radiological and Nuclear Terrorism43 Delirium 44 Suicide 45 Substance Abuse 46 Radiology 47 UltrasoundPart IV Toxicities48 Chemotherapy Toxicity49 Radiation Toxicity50 Mucositis51 Stoma Complications 52 Hematopoietic Cell Transplant 53 Toxicities of Novel Antineoplastic Therapies54 Fluorouracil or Capecitabine OverdosePart V Palliative Care55 Emergency Department Use at End of Life 56 Pain Management 57 Dyspnea in the Dying Patient58 Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation 59 Palliative Surgery60 Palliative Care 61 Hospice 62 Communication 63 Palliative Care Research Part VI Contextual64 Ethics 65 Health Disparities 66 Emergency Oncology in the United Kingdom67 Pain Management in Low-resource Settings68 Curriculum Development 69 National and Institutional Research Efforts70 COVID-1971 The Physician and Cancer: In Their Own WordsAPPENDIX
