Breast Disease Management: A Multidisciplinary Manual de James Harvey

Breast Disease Management: A Multidisciplinary Manual

Autor James Harvey, Sue Down, Rachel Bright-Thomas, John Winstanley, Hugh Bishop

en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 oct 2013

Observăm în Breast Disease Management o abordare riguros structurată, menită să unifice eforturile echipei multidisciplinare implicate în patologia mamară. Colaborarea dintre James Harvey, Sue Down, Rachel Bright-Thomas, John Winstanley și Hugh Bishop — specialiști cu o vastă experiență clinică în centre de referință — fundamentează acest manual ca o resursă esențială pentru chirurgi, asistenți, patologi și personal de suport. Într-un context medical în care una din zece femei este afectată de cancerul mamar, volumul propune un parcurs coerent în 26 de capitole, de la examinarea clinică și investigațiile inițiale până la protocoalele post-operatorii și tratamentul adjuvant.

Reținem precizia cu care sunt tratate controversele actuale, precum managementul marginilor de rezecție și al axilei, oferind dovezi clinice actualizate care facilitează luarea deciziilor rapide. Din punct de vedere al managementului de unitate, descoperim aici capitole inedite despre leadership, cerințele întâlnirilor multidisciplinare (MDT) și prevenirea reclamațiilor, aspecte deseori omise în manualele strict tehnice. Clinicienii care folosesc Breast Diseases de Diptendra Kumar Sarkar ca referință vor găsi aici un instrument complementar axat pe fluxul de lucru cotidian și pe integrarea practică a tuturor membrilor echipei, nu doar pe fundamentul teoretic.

Deși autorul principal împărtășește numele cu un cunoscut critic de film, această lucrare de specialitate publicată de Oxford University Press reprezintă un pilon distinct în literatura medicală, detașându-se de preocupările umaniste prin rigoare clinică și aplicabilitate imediată. Este o resursă care transformă ghidurile bazate pe dovezi în planuri de acțiune concrete pentru îngrijirea centrată pe pacient.

Despre autor

James Harvey coordonează o echipă de experți clinicieni în managementul bolilor mamare. Deși în mediul academic și literar numele său este asociat cu studii despre cinematografie și critică culturală, în contextul medical de față, autorii reprezintă autorități în chirurgie oncoplastică și oncologie. Aceștia activează în cadrul unor centre medicale de prestigiu, contribuind direct la dezvoltarea protocoalelor de tratament multidisciplinar. Experiența lor colectivă este transpusă în acest manual prin integrarea celor mai noi dovezi clinice și a ghidurilor practice utilizate în sistemul de sănătate britanic, oferind o perspectivă aplicată asupra managementului patologiei mamare.

Descriere

Breast cancer affects 1 in 10 women and the majority of UK women will attend a breast clinic at least once during their lives. The patient's journey through assessment and management is one that involves a huge range of healthcare professionals, in which the truly multidisciplinary management style required has previously been only sparsely addressed. This book provides a practical guide on how to investigate and manage common breast problems for all members of the breast disease team, whether surgeons, nurses, pathologists or support workers. Its focus is on providing easy access to the most up-to-date evidence, allowing healthcare workers to make the best decisions possible and encouraging a team approach to patient support.26 chapters cover the whole of the patient journey from assessment through to surgery and adjuvant treatments, giving a practical overview of the whole process of care. The coverage guides the reader from clinical examination and investigation of the breast patient to pre-operative workup and post-operative complication guidance. To enable swift and effective decision-making, clear management plans are provided for common breast problems. The book also includes the latest evidence, guidance and references on breast disease, together with discussions on current controversies in the field including the management of margins, management of the axilla and the evidence surrounding the NHS Breast Screening Programme. To give practical advice on the realities of being part of a breast care team, the book also has several chapters devoted to leadership and management including MDT requirements, audit and research, avoiding complaints and the organisation of a breast unit.Enabling every healthcare professional to respond to patients' needs accurately and knowledgeably, Breast Disease Management is a practical guide for the whole team in providing truly patient-centred, effective care.

Recenzii

The authors have succeeded in putting together a book on breast surgery which is quite different from anything else in print...acts as a useful reference for a wide range of areas within the field of breast surgery. Although I have been a consultant for close to 20 years, I have found new information and interesting commentary in the book which has a readable style throughout...I would have no hesitation in reccomending this manual. These are plenty of textbooks about breast disease, but this book addresses the fundamentals of how UK breast surgery works in practice.
The text is delivered in concise chapters adhering closely to the patient pathway. It's written in an informal and user-friendly style which is informative and easy to read... In summary, this text will provide a very valuable resource for its target audience and fills a vacant gap in the market in this role. Every breast unit would benefit from having a copy.
A highlight of this book is its discussion of reconstructive techniques. Few books are able to summarize the oncoplastic options available to patients in a way that this book does.
