بیماری‌های عفونی: ارزیابی خود از دارودرمانی

Infectious disease (ID) is a constant concern for pharmacy clinicians, with far too few specialists to meet the demand. That means that while more and more pharmacists are seeking the added qualification in infectious disease along with other Board Certifications, many clinical pharmacists have to meet a higher standard as de facto ID specialists. Further, treatment of infectious disease involves a good deal of grey area, which means that even the experts need a way to verify their mastery. Now, Infectious Disease Pharmacotherapy Self Assessment , by Lea Eiland and Diane Ginsburg, bring you thorough and relevant cases where questions are delivered with varying degrees of difficulty, allowing you to truly gauge your level of understanding of complex ID pharmacotherapy problems. Three levels of difficulty offers users a way to assess their mastery of ID topics. Reinforce and expand your skills by analyzing 33 cases of varying diagnostic complexity covering 19 diseases from neonatal to geriatric patients. Based on real-life situations, they provide clinical data relating to all aspects of care, so you can assess current treatment and consider alternatives. Infectious Disease Pharmacotherapy Self Assessment's questions and answers offer an effective way to test your knowledge. The Self Assessment is a valuable study aid for course work, exam prep, and professional development. Current practice guidelines are referenced including the CDC's Sexually Transmitted Diseases Treatment Guidelines, 2015, and the DHHS's Guidelines for the Use of Antiretroviral Agents in HIV-1-Infected Adults and Adolescents (April 2015). The book's varying levels of difficulty allow for further self-assessment throughout your career. Dedication Contents Preface Acknowledgments PART 1: CASES Section 1.
