        ICF-CY in Practice

        by Olaf Kraus de Camargo, Liane Simon, Peter L. Rosenbaum

        The ICF classification is based on the biopsychosocial model of health and was developed by the WHO to refect the state of health of people with chronic illnesses and disabilities in a better way. It covers functional capa­bility, participation and environmental factors and can therefore usefully complement medical diagnoses.

        Evolution and Health

        How Do Lifestyle and Diet Inflence Medicine and Our Health?

        by Nicole Bender, Lotte Habermann­-Horstmeier (Eds.)

        Today, we live in a new, anthropogenic environment that differs signifcantly from the environments to which we have adapted in the course of our evolution. This has signifcant effects on us hu­mans, our health, and our social inter­action. But how does the complex inter­action between humans and the environment work from an evolutionary perspective? How does evolution affect our biology and behavior? What role do genetic and epigenetic aspects play here? And what inflence does this have on the development of diseases such as diabetes mellitus type 2, cardiovascular diseases, allergies, autoimmune dis­eases or mental disorders? The book at­tempts to provide answers to these complex questions and allows an excit­ing evolutionary view of our future with new approaches for individual lifestyle opportunities, but also for future public health measures.

        The Anatomy of Time – Self-Management for Doctors

        A Guide to Effectively Prepare Time Slots

        by Alexander Ghanem

        Doctors fnd themselves caught be­tween the growing demands of having to learn more and more plus physical and mental stress, and the needs of a fulfll­ing private life. Previously, there was no self­help guide focused on how to effec­tively improve the well­being of physi­cians (and patients). Doctors fnd themselves caught be­tween the growing demands of having to learn more and more plus physical and mental stress, and the needs of a fulfll­ing private life. Previously, there was no self­help guide focused on how to effec­tively improve the well­being of physi­cians (and patients). Over the course of their careers, physi­cians often lose momentum, become exhausted and subsequently lack meaning in their life. This can even cul­minate in burnout. To prevent this, it is important to continually refocus, adapt­ing your goals to circumstances. With this in mind, time management for phy­sicians becomes more than just normal planning.

        The Encouragement Book

        by German Quernheim, Angelika Zegelin

        This book demonstrates the impor­tance of professional pride for carers in training, teaching and practice. The au­thors explain which mechanisms and strategies help to develop this attitude. They describe the facets of professional pride as identity, individuality, passion, courage, self­worth, meaningfulness, knowledge, and education. The contents provide a boost to profes­sional carers and give them the cour­age to be proactive against chronic pressures and ethical dilemmas and to change situations that are undignifed. Occupational profles and practice re­ports offer specifc role models and tips for implementation. The authors convey the basics of lobbying activity in the caring professions. They show carers how to represent themselves successfully and how to convey and embody self­confdence outwardly.

        Suggestion, Empathy and Evidence in Medicine

        Take Opportunities, Recognize Limits

        by Johannes Jörg

        Depending on their personality, their social, cultural, and religious environ­ ment, and the nature of their illness, patients tend to have a wait­and­see mood when they come into contact with a doctor, and usually an anxious mood in the case of emergencies. The situation is often accompanied not only by heightened expectations, but also by increased psychological as well as vegetative suggestibility. Suggestion and autosuggestion can, depending on the degree of psychovegetative infl­ enceability, activate the self­healing powers through psychological and physiological changes. On the one hand, the author vividly describes how the conscious use of empathy and sug­ gestion in the context of medical prac­ tice can promote a close doctor­ patient­relationship and positively inflence the results of therapy. On the other hand, he illustrates the negative side of the latter, namely as an exag­ gerated form of overestimation or abuse.

        Manual Trigger Point Therapy and Dry Needling for Chronic Pain

        Myofascial medicine as an approach to an unresolved challenge

        by Beat Dejung

        Medicine for the relief of pain has made little progress in the last 50 years. 16% of our population claim to suffer from chronic pain, for which no lasting help can be found, despite years of treatment by different doctors. Trigger point therapy experts have integrated myofascial techniques into their everyday therapy in recent decades and through this they have achieved good results even with complex and chronic problems. In this book, instructors from the Interest Group for Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy (IMTT) in Switzerland present 33 complex cases of patients with chronic pain, whose pain they were able to relieve perma­nently with manual trigger point therapy and dry needling. Using these case studies, double­page spreads with an edu­cational, uniform layout clearly present the diagnosis, pathophysiology and chronifcation of myofascial pain syn­dromes and, in conclusion, describe encouraging and sur­prising successes despite previous therapy resistance.

        Nursing Practice Manual

        by Margrit Hatz ­Casparis, Monika Roth Sigristk, Markus Remer, Barbara Schoop

        The focus is on clear and comprehensi­ble descriptions and illustrations of how caregivers can address, touch, stimulate, and soothe people through the various senses. The experienced authors show perceptually oriented touches, rubs, strokes, washes, and positioning, and describe and demon­strate how basal stimulation can be sensory mediated with auditory, gusta­tory, olfactory, vestibular, vibratory, and visual applications.

        Fundamentals of Basal Stimulation® in Nursing

        The Basics

        by Christel Bienstein, Andreas Fröhlich

        Basal stimulation supports people in critical life situations, whose communi­cation and regulation skills are signif­cantly limited or permanently impaired. Perception, communication, and move­ment skills are central to this concept. Basal stimulation is a form of holistic, body­related communication for people with major limitations. The authors Bienstein and Fröhlich demonstrate how carers can address, enable, stimulate, touch and calm peo­ple through sensory provisions. They specifcally describe key elements of nursing with regard to breathing, bath­ing, rubs (ASE), full and partial washes, dressing, support, dental hygiene, mobi­lization, positioning, washing and help in swallowing.

        Talking about Health and Illness in Simple Terms

        Medical Information Sheets in Plain Language

        by Tanja Sappok, Reinhard Burtscher, Anja Grimmer

        People with intellectual disabilities are signifcantly more likely to suffer from mental and physical disorders than the general population. For this very rea­son, good health­promoting and medi­cal care is especially important. Com­munication diffculties with patients and specialist staff make the neces­sary examinations and treatments more diffcult and can result in critical situations that are avoidable. If pa­tients can be provided with explana­tions that are in line with their capabili­ties, then the level of anxiety and stress is reduced for all concerned. The treat­ment success rate increases. This large­format book includes materi­als that explain about illnesses, exami­nation and treatment methods in lan­guage that is easy to understand. The materials can help medical, treatment and educational personnel with their everyday work. They promote dialogue with relatives and people with learning diffculties, contribute to informed deci­sion­making and strengthen patient rights.

        In the Dementia Maze

        A Graphic Novel

        by Albin Zauner

        Is it possible to tell in drawings how people with dementia experience, cope with, or fail in their everyday lives? The art therapist Albin Zauner has accom­plished this feat. The picture story comprises 84 drawings and is one of the frst graphic novels on the subject of dementia. The focus is not on the medical­pathologizing view of the dis­ease pattern or course, but on the pro­tagonist’s inner world of experience. The existential effects, the loss of spa­tial and temporal orientation, the memo­ry lapses and the breakdown of speech, permeate the old man’s world of experi­ence in symbolic image sequences.

They integrate ap­proaches of caring communities, neighborhood­based health coun­seling, and disaster nursing into nurs­ing work; and they describe nursing in­terventions in ambulatory care.

        Transcultural and Transcategorial Competence

        by Dagmar Domenig

        This textbook offers a foundational practical handbook on handling multiplicity, difference and diversity for healthcare professions. The first part deals with the social dynamics of pluralistic societies as well as economic flexibility, demographic change, and trends in mobility, migration and civil rights. The second part discusses “transitory categories”, using the example of disappearing terms such as “foreign cultures”, “second generation”, “religion” and “disability”. The third part focusses on “exclusion” through stigma, misanthropy and non-recognition as well as on basic and human rights. The meaning of transcategorical competence at different ages, different living environments and fields of practice is described in the fourth part, in articles on female circumcision, traumatization, migrant children and ageing. The fifth part is dedicated to healthcare provision, with a particular focus on women and men with experience of migration, on people with cognitive impairment and mental disorders and experience of migration. In the sixth part, various communication aspects in dealing with variation and difference are discussed.

        Encounters with People in Need

        by Joachim Gardemann

        Joachim Gardemann outlines his encounters and experiences as a pediatrician in crisis zones while working for the Red Cross all over the world. He describes people in existential emergency situations, who have been traumatized but survived a genocide on the border with Rwanda. People who have fled from civil wars in Congo or escaped from the Kosovo war. He traces the suffering of people in Iran, China and Haiti after losing their relatives and all their possessions in severe earthquakes. At their moments of greatest vulnerability, in the shelters and dirt of a refugee camp in Jordan, he meets people who have fled from the turmoil of the civil wars in Sudan and Syria. He sketches poignant portraits of the victims of the tsunami disaster in Sri Lanka. He gives a striking account of the devastation wrought by the Ebola epidemic in Sierra Leone. He creates a worthy memorial to those who died of Ebola, who lost their lives as doctors and nurses in the fight against Ebola as well as to those who survived.

        Work & Care – The Path to Compatibility Competence

        Reconciling Work and Caring for Family Members

        by Iren Bischofberger

        The book focuses on people who, in addition to their gainful employment, are also responsible for caring for sick, impaired, or very old relatives - in other words, “work & care”. This topic is at the intersection of two scarce resources - the private unpaid care potential for loved ones on the one hand and the employment potential of family members on the other. The author examines what the professional, operational, and political consequences are for nursing science and practice as well as for service providers and payers. She makes suggestions for the development of personal, family, and organizational compatibility competence on the levels of action time-out and regeneration, knowledge and empowerment, coordination and organization, exchange and accompaniment. Finally, she offers options for action for nursing science and sheds light on the field of activity of scientific policy advice.
