Ortopedi - patofysiologi, sjukdomar och trauma hos barn och vuxna är en omfattande grundbok i ortopedi som ger en aktuell introduktion till fältet.Boken är uppdelad i tre delar. Del ett behandlar historik, epidemiologi, muskuloskeletal biologi, klinisk undersökningsteknik och diagnostik samt generella problem, frågeställningar och sjukdomar inom ortopedin. Del två går i olika kapitel systematiskt igenom kroppens regioner vad gäller ortopediska sjukdomar och trauman hos vuxna. I varje kapitel används genomgående rubrikerna bakgrund, symptom, diagnostik, behandling samt prognos. I del tre upprepas denna struktur vad gäller barnaårens ortopediska sjukdomar och trauman. Samtliga delar innehåller rikliga illustrationer som kompletterar texterna.Ortopedi - patofysiologi, sjukdomar och trauma hos barn och vuxna är framför allt avsedd för läkarstudenter, utbildningsläkare samt specialistläkare som handlägger ortopediska sjukdomar och skador. Boken kan med fördel även användas av annan vårdpersonal som är engagerad i utredning och behandling av ortopediska sjukdomar och trauman.

A physician who is treating a patient confronts a complex and incompletely understood living system that is sensitive to pain. An engineer or programmer who develops a new device, on the other hand, operates within the less emotional domains of materials and mathematics. The Medicine Meets Virtual Reality (MMVR) conference brings together physicians, scientists, engineers, educators, students, and others to bridge the gap between clinicians and technologists, and to create collaborative solutions to healthcare challenges. This book presents the proceedings of the Medicine Meets Virtual Reality conference (MMVR19), held in Newport Beach, California, USA, in February 2012. It includes papers on modeling and simulation, imaging, data visualization and fusion, haptics, robotics, telemedicine and medical intelligence networking, virtual and augmented reality, psychotherapy and physical rehabilitation tools, serious games, and other topics.MMVR stimulates interaction between developers and end users and promotes unorthodox problem-solving as a complement to rigorous scientific methodology. This book will interest all who are involved with the future of medicine.

In the early 1990s, a small group of individuals recognized how virtual reality (VR) could transform medicine by immersing physicians, students and patients in data more completely. Technical obstacles delayed progress but VR is now enjoying a renaissance, with breakthrough applications available for healthcare.This book presents papers from the Medicine Meets Virtual Reality 22 conference, held in Los Angeles, California, USA, in April 2016. Engineers, physicians, scientists, educators, students, industry, military, and futurists participated in its creative mix of unorthodox thinking and validated investigation. The topics covered include medical simulation and modeling, imaging and visualization, robotics, haptics, sensors, physical and mental rehabilitation tools, and more. Providing an overview of the state-of-the-art, this book will interest all those involved in medical VR and in innovative healthcare, generally.

This book describes and discusses a practice-oriented approach to understanding and researching interprofessional simulation-based education and simulation. It provides empirical findings from research on this topic and is informed by practice-oriented perspectives. It identifies critical features of the simulation practice and discusses how these can be used in reforming simulation pedagogy.The book is divided into three sections. Section 1 sets the scene for understanding the practices of interprofessional simulation-based education and simulation. It provides a theoretical and methodological framework for the conceptualisation of practices and for the empirical studies on which the book is based. Section 2 revisits the dimensions of the simulation process/exercise, i.e.  the briefing, simulation, and debriefing, and provides empirical analyses of how the practice of simulation unfolds. Based on these analyses, section 3 identifies and discusses how pedagogies for simulation can be reformed to meet the demands of future healthcare and research.
