Produktinformationen zu „Field Guide to Global Health & Disaster Medicine - E-Book (ePub)“

While serving as a physician overseas in resource-poor countries, Dr. James Chambers recognized the need for a practical, portable reference for non-specialist healthcare providers to orient them to common issues when serving in new situations, whether due to geography, austere environments, or complex humanitarian disasters. Field Guide to Global Health and Disaster Medicine draws on the experience, training, and perspectives of committed healthcare providers from diverse nations and backgrounds to provide the most essential information for maximum utility in the field-whether in a refugee camp, operating room, disaster response scene, or other demanding environment.

Helps providers prepare for service overseas, organize data to develop differential diagnoses, assimilate information on infectious and environmental diseases, and effectively serve the patients they will encounter.
Provides concise, easy-to-read coverage of how to approach a differential diagnosis for infectious diseases overseas; nutritional, sexual, and environmental conditions; surgical and anesthesia care; long-term and short-term systems-based challenges, and more.
Covers key topics such as Approach to Refugees and Internally Displaced Persons, Medical Response to Disasters, Mental Health in War and Crisis Regions, and Considerations for Pandemic Preparedness and Response.
Acknowledges the wide variance of different cultures, motives, resources, and limitations in the global health arena, and helps readers understand the factors which impact the efficacy and sustainability of care strategies.
Enhanced eBook version included with purchase, which allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the book on a variety of devices.

Autoren-Porträt von James A. Chambers

Dr Chambers trained in the US Air Force and spent 6 years practicing public health and primary care in Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, working closely with host-nation healthcare providers. He then pursued surgical training and published three books on surgery with Jones & Bartlett. Upon being recruited to the Pentagon, he led the DoD's International Health Specialist (IHS) Program and the Defense Institute for Medical Operations (DIMO). Dr Chambers trained DoD medical personnel to build partnerships to improve other nations' medical capability and disaster preparedness. Through DIMO, Dr Chambers deployed 60 mobile training teams/year around the globe to teach topics from HIV/AIDS policy to trauma surgical techniques. Since then, he has continued to advance global health by publishing in peer-reviewed journals, coordinating high-level health exchanges with China, supporting the UN, and helping develop policy with NGOs and partner governments related to health systems strengthening and security.
