商品描述

Emergency medicine (EM) physicians practicing in the community are often the first providers to care for acutely ill children with medical complexity (CMC) as they arrive to their local emergency departments, which are often outside of major cities and may be in underserved areas. While many of these patients are ultimately transferred to tertiary care facilities at major medical centers such as theirs, EM physicians play a critical role in acutely stabilizing these patients prior to transfer or discharge home. This is despite often not having received specific education in this patient population during their training.

The purpose of this text is to provide an educational tool for physicians and other health care providers in the acute care of CMC. Comprised of clinical cases, it is a valuable resource for both early learners (e.g., pediatric residents, emergency medicine residents) as well as providers in practice who may see these patients regularly in the ED but did not receive extensive training on the care of CMC. Each chapter includes figures/tables/illustrations to aid in learning and ends with a summary in the form of 3-5 Take-Away Pearls.

Edited by three board-certified pediatric hospitalists, Children with Medical Complexity in the Emergency Department serves to help equip emergency medicine practitioners to provide optimal care for the most vulnerable and medically fragile patients in the communities they serve in order to enhance patient outcomes and provide a better experience for the patients' families. Chapter authors have been recruited from the pediatrics and emergency medicine fields, including generalists as well as subspecialty experts in the areas of transplant medicine, gastroenterology, nephrology, and many more.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

急診醫學(EM)醫師在社區中執業,通常是第一個照顧急性病患的醫療提供者,特別是那些具有醫療複雜性的兒童(CMC),當他們抵達當地的急診部門時,這些急診部門往往位於主要城市之外,並可能位於資源不足的地區。雖然這些病人最終會被轉送到大型醫療中心的三級醫療機構,但EM醫師在轉送或出院前,對於急性穩定這些病人扮演著關鍵角色。儘管他們在培訓期間通常沒有接受過針對這一病人群體的專門教育。

本書的目的是為醫師和其他醫療提供者提供一個針對CMC急性護理的教育工具。書中包含臨床案例,對於早期學習者(例如,兒科住院醫師、急診醫學住院醫師)以及在實務中可能經常接觸這些病人的醫療提供者來說,都是一個寶貴的資源,尤其是那些未接受過關於CMC護理的廣泛訓練的醫師。每一章節都包含圖表/表格/插圖以協助學習,並以3-5個重點摘要作結。

本書由三位經過認證的兒科住院醫師編輯,急診部門的醫療複雜性兒童旨在幫助急診醫學從業者為他們所服務社區中最脆弱和醫療脆弱的病人提供最佳護理,以提升病人結果並為病人的家庭提供更好的體驗。章節作者來自兒科和急診醫學領域,包括一般醫師以及在移植醫學、胃腸病學、腎臟病學等多個專科領域的專家。
