Abstract:

The introduction of highly potent antiretroviral agents has transformed HIV from a disease with a once dismal prognosis to a manageable chronic medical condition. The primary care provider as well as the HIV care provider must focus on aspects of preventive medicine that improve the quality of life and life expectancy of the HIV-infected person. Accurate record-keeping is essential, and examples of HIV primary care flow sheets are presented in this chapter. In addition, tuberculosis screening indications and methods are reviewed. Regular preventative dental and gynecological care should be given. Reviewing the treatment of traditional cardiovascular risk factors with patients will be helpful in educating them and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract:

Motivational interviewing (MI) is a patient-centered and collaborative approach to clinical care (Miller & Rollnick, 2013). This narrative review describes MI and then concentrates on evidence for its use with patients to help enhance health behaviors in a variety of settings. Because of the proliferation of research in the area, this overview necessarily is selective. This review focuses on some of the most common chronic health behavior problems, such as those associated with obesity, oral hygiene behavior, and chronic disease management. Additionally, motivational interactions (MIACTs), which are spoken and nonverbal communications from health professionals with patients, are proposed as very brief communications that are based on MI spirit and other MI principles. These MIACTs may promote positive interactions between patients and providers, enhance patient satisfaction with healthcare, and help to establish rapport, even when the time available for healthcare interactions does not allow a true implementation of MI.

Abstract:

Early in the lives of children, parental influences are strong, and interventions targeting parents are essential to behavior change. In adolescence, peers emerge as critical additions to the influence of family members; their influence can support the growth and maintenance of positive health behaviors, or it can encourage unhealthy choices. Social groups continue to feature prominently in various ways throughout adulthood. A crucial role is played by supportive social networks in the improvement and maintenance of a wide variety of health behaviors, and the availability of normative information affects health choices. Health care providers hold a good deal of power in the practitioner–patient relationship and influence their patients toward health outcomes in a variety of ways. Finally, system-level influences such as public health programs, health-related media messages, and educational interventions can help motivate individuals toward ideal health behaviors.

Abstract:

American Muslims—from clinicians to imams and grandmothers—carry a long tradition of “Islamic medicine.” They combine complementary and alternative health and medical practices and rely on rituals, scripture, prophetic tradition, and shari’ah principles. This article examines the healing practices, beliefs, and concerns of American Muslims. It first looks at contemporary Muslim contributions to international biomedicine before turning to the hadith and the Qur’an as the basis of Muslim health and medicine. It then discusses the American Muslims’ emphasis on prevention and purity as the foundation of health maintenance and healing practices, as well as interactions with health-care personnel and facilities. It also considers fasting, eating, and medicinals among American Muslims and the link between Islamic behavioral norms and individual health. Furthermore, the article explores how Islam views mental health and mental illness, analyzes the attitude of Muslim patients toward American biomedicine, and focuses on Muslim biomedical providers/professionals in the United States. Finally, it probes the local and supralocal significance of Muslim complementary and alternative medicine use.

Abstract:

(Note: Several vancomycin dosing and monitoring protocols exist; this is the one used at Mayo Clinic.)•Loading dose: Consider 20–30 mg/kg, especially in critically ill patients with serious infections such as meningitis, health care–associated pneumonia, or endocarditis.•Maintenance dose: Give 15–20 mg/kg based on actual body weight for most patients (20 mg/kg is reasonable when aiming for a trough range of 15–20 mcg/mL). Adjust based on serum levels. See also the following sections on hemodialysis and continuous renal replacement therapy....

Abstract:

Obesity is widely acknowledged as a risk factor for both the incidence and progression of osteoarthritis. Loss of at least 10% of body weight is recognized as a cornerstone in the management of obese patients with osteoarthritis, and can lead to significant improvement in symptoms, pain relief, physical function, and health-related quality of life. However, questions still remain surrounding optimal management and whether structural disease progression can be arrested. Given the significant health, social, and economic burden of osteoarthritis, especially in obese patients, it is imperative to advance our knowledge of osteoarthritis and obesity, and apply this to improve care and outcomes. This chapter overviews what is known about osteoarthritis, obesity, and weight loss and discusses current key challenges in management and maintenance of weight loss for overweight and obese individuals with osteoarthritis.

Abstract:

The circadian timing system temporally regulates biological functions relevant for psycho-physical wellbeing, spanning all the systems related to health. Hence, disruption of circadian rhythms, along with sleep cycles, is associated with the development of several diseases, including cancer. Moreover, altered circadian and sleep functions negatively impact on cancer patients’ quality of life and survival, above and beyond known determinants of outcome. This alteration can occur as a consequence of cancer, but also of anti-cancer treatments. Indeed, circadian rhythms govern also the ability of detoxifying chemotherapy agents across the 24 hours. Hence, adapting chemotherapy delivery to the molecular oscillations in relevant drug pathways can decrease toxicity to healthy cells, while increasing the number of cancer cells killing. This chronomodulated chemotherapy approach, together with the maintenance of proper circadian function throughtout the whole disease challenge, would finally result in safer and more active anticancer treatments, and in patients experiencing better quality and quantity of life.

Abstract:

Obesity is becoming an epidemic health problem, and the number of surgical patients with a body mass index of more than 50 kg m−2 requiring anaesthesia is increasing. Obesity is associated with physiopathological changes such as metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disorders, or sleep apnoea syndrome, most of which improve with weight loss. Regarding pharmacokinetics, volumes of distribution are increased for both lipophilic and hydrophilic drugs. Consequently, doses should be adjusted to total body weight (propofol for maintenance, succinylcholine, vancomycin), or lean body mass (remifentanil, non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent). For all drugs, titration based on monitoring of effects is recommended. To minimize recovery delays, drugs with a rapid offset of action such as remifentanil and desflurane are preferable. Poor tolerance to apnoea with early hypoxaemia and atelectasis warrant rapid sequence induction and protective ventilation. Careful positioning will prevent pressure injuries and minimize rhabdomyolysis which are frequent. Because of an increased risk of pulmonary embolism, multimodal prevention is mandatory. Regional anaesthesia, albeit technically difficult, is beneficial in obese patients to treat postoperative pain and improve rehabilitation. Maximizing the safety of anaesthesia for morbidly obese patients requires a good knowledge of the physiopathology of obesity and great attention to detail in planning and executing anaesthetic management. Even in elective surgery, many cases can be technical challenges and only a step-by-step approach to the avoidance of potential adverse events will result in the optimal outcome.
