How can medical professionals take advantage of the valuable effects of opiates while minimizing their most common side effectopioid bowel syndrome?This groundbreaking book will help physicians in their day-to-day practice and help researchers and educators prepare the next generation of clinicians to make more efficient use of opioids. The Handbook of Opioid Bowel Syndrome presents complete, authoritative, current information on the mechanisms of action of opioids and the management of opioid bowel dysfunction-the number one reason physicians avoid prescribing opioids. Most chapters include charts, tables, and/or illustrations that make complex information about this vexing problem easy to access and understand. All are well-referenced for further study.From the editor: Opioid compounds, which are widely administered for a variety of medical indications, are associated with a number of side effects, especially opioid bowel dysfunction (OBD). Very often, OBD is so severe that physicians limit opioid use or dose, even when medically indicated. Although OBD is a significant clinical problem, it has received insufficient attention in the past within the medical community. This book presents complete, authoritative information on recent progress in understanding the mechanisms of action of opioids in relation to OBD and its management.In 11 well-referenced chapters, the Handbook of Opioid Bowel Syndrome addresses:gastrointestinal opioid physiology and pharmacology the pathophysiology of opioid-induced bowel dysfunction the epidemiology of OBD OBD in palliative care OBD in acute and chronic nonmalignant pain post-operative OBD post-surgical bowel dysfunction in the gynecological patient new peripheral opioid antagonists currently under clinical developmentPacked with information about opioids that was previously unavailable or difficult to find, the Handbook of Opioid Bowel Syndrome is an essential addition to the library of any clinician, researcher, or educator who needs current, essential knowledge about the best ways to utilize these quality-of-life enhancing medications.

For over 3,000 years, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has made great contributions to the health and well-being of Chinese people. The practice of TCM has also been adapted in many Asian countries for centuries. Nowadays in China, along with Western medicine, TCM is well integrated in the Chinese healthcare system as one of two mainstream medical practices.In the past several decades, the fast economic growth of China has not only promoted the use of TCM beyond Chinese-speaking countries, but also inspired researchers to perform modern scientific research on TCM for disease treatment and health maintenance. The American Journal of Chinese Medicine (AJCM) is the oldest complementary and integrative medical journal in the U.S. In this book, the most read and influential research studies published in the AJCM in recent years were selected and organized in five sections based on key target organs and therapies. These articles reflect the high standards of contemporary TCM research.This book is designed for physicians and other healthcare professionals, biomedical researchers, medical students, and interested individuals. Readers will gain from the knowledge and experience of the many contributors to this text, which provides the most updated, evidence-based TCM research information.
