Oxford University Press Inc Whats in the Syringe
Book SynopsisWhat''s in the Syringe? offers a succinct overview of the psychological skills of outpatient palliative care, teaching clinicians how to help patients live well and acknowledge end of life as patients meet five challenges of serious illness. It explores how to help patients develop prognostic awareness, through which they pair hopes and worries and see themselves with clarity and empathy. The book also teaches clinicians how to support patients'' coping skills. As patients use these skills, they improve their quality of life and deepen their prognostic awareness, helping them make informed medical and personal decisions as they approach end of life. Illustrated, case-based chapters are organized from diagnosis to end of life and draw on two decades of research and clinical experience. Each chapter describes how palliative care and oncology clinicians can collaborate and explains the interpretive role of the palliative care clinician in helping the patient and oncologist understand each other. What''s in the Syringe? is an essential resource for palliative care fellows, trainees, and clinicians, for oncologists, primary care clinicians, and medical students, and for all care providers working with patients facing serious illness.Trade ReviewRecommended for a wide audience, the book features selected references as further reading for each chapter. * E. R. Paterson, Choice Connect *The book is strengthened by its systematic approach to the incredibly personal, nuanced, and often difficult work that occurs in palliative care practice... this book is a powerful guide for any palliative care clinician who would benefit from an enhanced vocabulary to name what it is we do and the framework to outline how we do it, which is to say, almost every one of us. * Hannah Brown, Journal of Palliative Medicine *This valuable guide brings clarity to the skills and techniques 'inside the syringe' that can support therapeutic relationships and adaptive coping in patients and families living with advanced cancer. The clinical wisdom and practical advice in this book have the potential to transform good intentions into the delivery of more effective and humanistic clinical care. * Gary Rodin, MD, Professor of Psychiatry and Director, Global Institute of Psychosocial, Palliative and End-of-Life Care (GIPPEC) *I love this book. It puts in words and clear guidance what I have struggled to learn over 25 years of practice in palliative care—how to accompany our patients and our colleagues all the way through the long journey of a serious illness, and the healing power of our relationship, our presence, and our words in tempering the sting of loss. * Diane Meier, MD, Professor, Geriatrics and Palliative Medicine, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai *Table of Contents1.

Oxford University Press Inc Minimally Invasive Surgical Procedures for Pain
Book SynopsisIn the last decade, a significant paradigm shift has occurred in the way complex spinal disorders are treated. Historically, after patients failed conservative treatments-largely consisting of therapy, medications, and injections-they would be left with only highly invasive open surgical options. Now, with the development of minimally invasive surgical techniques, patients often have significantly more effective and safer treatment options available. Minimally Invasive Surgical Procedures for Pain looks at the minimally invasive approaches that can be done percutaneously and under image guidance, instead of the traditional open approaches under direct visualization. The book discusses the basic concepts of spinal surgical approaches combined with an in-depth approach to the various techniques, with the overall goals of enhancing physician knowledge and leading to improved patient outcomes and safety. Topics include decompressive procedures, spinal implants, vertebral autmentation procedures, sacroiliac joint therapies, neuromodulation procedures, and more. The topics covered in the book are important to interventionalists, as well as physicians from traditional surgical backgrounds like neurosurgery and orthopedics. A first of its kind, this text details a balanced look at the proper surgical techniques for pain, as well as best practices.

Oxford University Press Inc How We Hurt
Book SynopsisHow We Hurt dives into the institutional and cultural dimensions of the ongoing opioid epidemic. In a detailed analysis of pain management, opioid regulation, pharmaceutical branding, self-help, and public discourses on opioid addiction, Melina Sherman argues that the linchpin underlying the opioid epidemic''s evolution in North America is the problem of pain. By unpacking the politics of pain in different domains, How We Hurt shows how the crisis emerged and shifted, and why it looks the way it does today. The book''s chapters begin by tracing the trajectory of opioids in pain management, where decisions regarding the measurement of pain led to relief becoming wedded to opioids in medicine. The following chapters examine the problem of pain in opioid regulation, pharmaceutical branding, and the self-help industry. In these areas, a disastrous combination of strategic ignorance and deep-seated ties between public health entities and pharmaceutical companies drove the influx of opioids onto the market and into our medicine cabinets. The book''s penultimate chapter applies the analysis of pain to the problem of opioid addiction in popular discourse and shows how the opioid crisis has evolved alongside new conceptions of addiction and people who use opioids that condition whose pain is seen as legitimate and whose is not. Finally, the book concludes by considering the implications of its findings for the development of drug policy and future research on public health disasters, insisting on an interdisciplinary and multi-faceted approach to the study of pain and its place American culture.Trade ReviewPain is the root of the opioid crisis. In this stunning book, Melina Sherman takes us to the depths of American despair, the heights of pharmaceutical corruption, and the netherworld where narcotic promises dissolve. How We Hurt is an incendiary, infuriating, and utterly necessary book." Eric Klinenberg, author of 2020: A Social Autopsy and Palaces for the PeopleHow We Hurt is the most rigorous analysis to date on the causes and consequences of the opioid epidemic that has killed over one million people and wrecked families and communities around America. Brilliantly written, it will redefine the terms of the public debate. Essential reading for policy makers, students, journalists, and concerned citizens." Manuel Castells, Professor Emeritus of Sociology, University of California, BerkeleySherman's book is incredibly timely, important, and absolutely unique. She offers readers an often overlooked history of the opioid crisis, and makes crucial connections between the regulation of pharmaceutical drugs, the moral and social panics around the opioid "epidemic" the branding of painkillers as a "right to be free from pain," and the histories of physicians and medications, giving us in the process a beautifully written and urgent framework for critically analyzing the different dimensions of drug use, and over-use, in US society. Her important critique of the structures of constraint, control and exclusion that characterize what we now call the opioid epidemic is essential reading for not only academics but also the public at large.

Oxford University Press CognitiveBehavioral Therapy for Chronic Pain in Children and Adolescents
Book SynopsisChronic pain is a significant health problem for many children and adolescents and is often challenging for healthcare professionals to treat. Estimated to affect approximately 15% to 30% of children, chronic and recurrent pain occurs most commonly in the pediatric population without clearly identifiable underlying physical etiology, such as pain associated with irritable bowel syndrome, headaches, musculoskeletal pain, or complex regional pain syndrome. Chronic or recurrent pain may also be associated with ongoing underlying medical conditions, such as arthritis, cancer, Crohn''s disease, or sickle cell disease. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Chronic Pain in Children and Adolescents provides a practical guide for implementing cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for children and their families coping with the consequences of persisting pain. The book is divided into three sections. The first section presents a brief history, theoretical foundations, and background concerning the develTrade Review"With that all too rare combination of extremely careful scholarship and very practical information, Dr. Palermo has provided the field with an excellent, much-needed, and comprehensive text containing state-of-the-art information about the etiology and treatment of chronic pain in children.

Oxford University Press Hypnosis for Chronic Pain Management
Book SynopsisAn explosion of interest in the applications of hypnosis for clinical problems, especially pain, has led to a wide accumulation of research on hypnosis as a viable, beneficial supplement to treatment protocols. Over the past two decades, published controlled trials have confirmed that hypnosis treatments are effective for reducing daily pain intensity, increasing activity level, and improving mood and sleep quality in individuals with chronic pain. Moreover, evidence also suggests that hypnotic procedures can increase the beneficial effects of other treatments, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Based on these findings, there is a lack of practical resources in the field that offer recommendations for incorporating hypnosis and hypnotic protocols into treatment for pain management. This therapist guide fills this gap by distilling the techniques empirically validated by these clinical trials into one comprehensive, user-friendly volume. Organized into three parts, Hypnosis for Chronic Pain Management summarizes the findings from research, examines the effects of hypnosis on pain, and provides step-by-step instructions for performing hypnotic inductions and making hypnotic suggestions. Designed to be used in conjunction with the corresponding patient workbook, this unique therapist guide is written for clinicians who treat patients with chronic pain and who wish to incorporate hypnosis and hypnotic procedures into their treatment protocols, or those clinicians who already have training in clinical hypnosis and hope to acquire the skills needed to apply it to pain management.An excellent blueprint to understanding pain and the fundamentals of how hypnosis combined with CBT can offer pain amelioration. Perfect, even for uninitiated practitioners who wish to use empirically based scripts.--Jeffrey Zeig, Ph.D., The Milton Erickson FoundationPain can too easily enslave people, holding them captive in many different ways. It is a liberating theme of empowerment that echoes throughout Dr. Jensen''s work: he empowers clinicians to work more knowledgeably and skillfully with people who suffer painful conditions using his therapist guide, and he encourages the suffering individual to break free from pain''s grip with the practical pain management skills taught in his workbook. Dr. Jensen''s vision for the many ways hypnosis can help reduce the debilitating effects of painful conditions is fresh, inspiring and should be regularly integrated into every pain management program.--Michael D. Yapko, Ph.D., Clinical Psychologist and author of Trancework: An Introduction to the Practice of Clinical Hypnosis (Third Edition) and Treating Depression with HypnosisTrade ReviewReaders will come away with an overview of how to approach using hypnosis with those experiencing chronic pain and a good sense of both the issues involved in working with chronic pain and in using hypnosis. * Dr Angela Busuttil, The Journal of Critical Psychology, Counselling and Psychotherapy *Table of ContentsIntroduction ; Part I Understanding Pain ; Chapter 1: The Biological Basis of Pain ; Chapter 2: Psychological Factors that Influence Pain ; Part II Understanding Hypnosis ; Chapter 3: What is Hypnosis? ; Chapter 4: What Hypnosis can do for Pain ; Part III Using Hypnosis for Chronic Pain Management ; Chapter 5: Patient Assessment and Preparation ; Chapter 6: Hypnosis for Chronic Pain Management: The Basics ; Chapter 7: Hypnotic Inductions ; Chapter 8: Suggestions for Pain and Symptom Management ; Chapter 9: Suggestions for Thought and Mood Management ; Chapter 10: Suggestions for Behavior, Activity, and Sleep Management ; Chapter 11: End of the Session: Post-hypnotic Suggestions and Reorienting ; Chapter 12: Summary and Consolidation ; Pain Evaluation Form ; Appendix of Self-Report Measures Assessing Pain, Pain-Related Beliefs and Coping, and Clinical Success ; References ; About the Authors

Open University Press Principles and Practice of Managing Pain A Guide
Book Synopsis"I found this book extremely easy to read. It does much more than tell us what pain is and how to limit or prevent it. It explains the ethical aspects of pain management and makes us think about why and how we should manage patientsâ pain, and what our rights and duties are in pain management. The book takes us from an explanation of pain, through pain assessment, pharmacology and management, and informs us how to plan for pain management, rather than only focussing on reactive pain control. It also looks at pain from the patientâs perspective and teaches us how to assess pain using a variety of recognised tools ... I will use this book again and again, and would recommend it to fellow students who are placed on wards where pain management and planning is required."Conor Hamilton, Student Nurse, Queens University Belfast, UKThis practical introductory text provides an accessible guide to pain and how it affects patients and care giving.

Random House USA Inc The Chronic Pain Solution Your Personal Path to
Book SynopsisEvery morning, more than 50 million Americans wake up to another day in pain. If you are one of them, you know the way chronic pain can take over your life: the lost work and missed pleasures, the harsh drugs or surgeries, the feelings of anger and frustration, the endless search from doctor to doctor. It doesn’t have to be that way. This remarkable book, by one of the leading pain specialists in America, puts in your hands the resources usually available only at the most sophisticated pain clinics. Recent research has shown that the solution to the puzzle of pain is almost never one “magic bullet” treatment. What works is a combination of therapies--often three or more--customized to your individual needs. Some drugs or surgeries can actually make your condition worse, while surprisingly gentle alternative therapies can provide measurable, lasting relief. The key is knowing how to combine the best of both conventional and alternative medicine.Dr. J

Penguin Young Readers Medical Marijuana
Book SynopsisAn essential guide to understanding the health benefits of marijuana and CBDMarijuana has been used for thousands of years as a medicine, but pot has been illegal in the United States for most of our lives. Almost all states have now legalized its medical use, and many consumers and physicians are exploring it as an alternative to conventional treatments. There’s substantial evidence that marijuana (cannabis) is a safe and effective treatment for chronic pain, chemo side effects, sleep and mood disorders, MS, and Parkinson’s disease, among others. But there’s also misinformation about marijuana on social media. And most physicians have limited knowledge on the subject, while dispensary staff (aka “budtenders”) lack medical training. Mikhail Kogan, MD, a renowned expert on medical marijuana, has found that cannabinoids (THC, CBD, hemp, and other cannabis products) can often be more beneficial, have fewer side effects, and

Elsevier Health Sciences The Biomechanics of Back Pain
Book SynopsisSuitable for clinicians involved in the care and treatment of patients with back pain, this title presents a synthesis of the advanced research findings and explains its changes in emphasis - from trying to understand and reverse age-related spinal degeneration to addressing the soft tissue causes of pain.Trade ReviewReview quotes from previous editions This book is an excellent addition to the literature on back pain. Biomechanics is fundamental to understanding the physical basis of back pain, but many biomechanical textbooks are very technical and difficult for the non-specialist. What is new and different about this book is that it presents complex ideas very simply and clearly, and applies them to the clinical situation. This volume is to be highly recommended to all doctors and therapists who deal with patients with back pain. Professor Gordon Waddell DSc, MD, FRCS Orthopaedic Surgeon, Glasgow [Amazon] This excellent book presents in one location a synthesis of much of the recent literature on the mechanical factors contributing to low back pain. The logic of the text is easy to follow and each chapter builds upon concepts and ideas presented in earlier chapters. I can think of few books to compare to it and I recommend it highly. Dana J Lawrence, DC, MMedEd, MA(Palmer College of Chiropractic) It is refreshing to see a book that interprets and integrates the literature instead of simply repeating studies. W.S. Marras, Biodynamics Laboratory, Ohio State University The book is one of the most evidence-based books on the market. The authors are research active and always updating their knowledge. Principal Lecturer in Physiotherapy, University of Cumbria "The final remarks of the authors include-'There is good evidence that the psychosocial characteristics of many patients with chronic back pain are not the underlying cause of the problem; rather they are a response to vague diagnosis,ineffective treatment and a "compensation culture.' As more than half the content of this book is of direct relevance to OH professionals, I have no hesitation in recommending that it has a place on our bookshelves."

John Wiley and Sons Ltd Pain A Sociological Introduction
Book SynopsisPain in one form or another is probably the most common symptom presented to medical and healthcare professionals. Long a subject of biomedical interest, more recent biopsychosocial theories have extended the study of pain as a concept which is highly individual in the way it is experienced.Trade ReviewFirst Prize in Health and Social Care in the 2018 BMA Medical Book Awards "Elaine Denny has written a lively survey of research illuminating the experience of pain with a focus on the implications for clinical practice and policy. Problematising medical assumptions of objectivity around pain assessment, diagnosis and treatment that compound the experience of pain, this accessible book offers a strong critique of current clinical practice." Hannah Bradby, Uppsala University, Sweden"Given that the topic of pain covers such a vast spectrum including culture, religion, politics, science, medicine, and the arts, amongst others, this book does an impressive job of summarising these various, often conflicting, elements, giving the reader an excellent overview of its diverse philosophies.
