Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The global population is aging rapidly, and as a result emergency abdominal surgery for acute abdomen in the elderly has become a global issue. Demographic changes in the population have also altered the profile of emergency abdominal surgery, with… typical causes of acute abdomen in the elderly including acute cholecystitis, incarcerated hernia, bowel obstruction and appendicitis. In these patients, recovery from surgery is often complicated, leading to longer hospital stays compared with younger patients. Laparoscopy in the emergency setting is well established and offers a number of advantages over open surgical approaches, such as reduced postoperative pain, length of hospital stay and complication rates. While laparoscopic surgery for acute diverticulitis has become more widespread, in other conditions, like small bowel obstruction and perforated peptic ulcer, laparotomy is still used in about 70% of cases. Further, despite the urgent need for knowledge regarding surgical treatmentof acute abdomen in the elderly, there is still a lack of evidence in this relevant clinical field.This book analyzes the management strategies and critically evaluates the outcomes of laparoscopic emergency surgery for acute abdomen in the elderly according to the principles of evidence-based medicine. Discussing each topic clearly, and promoting the use of emergency laparoscopy in elderly patients, the book is intended for young general surgeons and surgeons in training with at least a basic knowledge of surgery for acute abdomen. It is also useful as a quick reference tool during on-call shifts.

Rilegato. Condition: nuovo. Dust Jacket Condition: come nuovo. prima edizione. Dopo il volume Il parco del Gennargentu: un'occasione da non perdere, la Scuola di Pubblica Amministrazione e Governo Locale di Nuoro presenta questa nuova raccolta di contributi sullo stesso tema, che rappresenta l'evoluzione logica del precedente. A…bbandonate le affermazioni generiche sull'argomento, il libro affronta per la prima volta in modo organico e documentato le diverse problematiche dello sviluppo che può essere avviato nell'area del costituendo parco, ormai completamente degradata dal punto di vista economico e parzialmente compromessa da quello ambientale. Le linee di sviluppo praticabili sono molto interessanti e appaiono in grado di assicurare una rapida crescita all'asfittica economia locale, insieme alla conservazione del patrimonio naturale. Non solo: il parco può costituire, per le risorse messe a disposizione e per l'impegno progettuale che ne deriva, anche un'occasione per il potenziamento della cultura e delle tradizioni delle popolazioni locali.
