• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Pharmacists are increasingly recognized not just as dispensers of medications but as key healthcare providers offering a wide range of services. At present, there is no comprehensive resource on the evidence-based practice of the clinical, economic, and humanistic impact of pharmacist care that discusses the implications and challenges and that provides practical tips for effective pharmacist care services. And there is no book that discusses online and distance pharmacist care. Recognizing that the value of pharmacists extends beyond clinical interventions to include cost-effective healthcare solutions and compassionate, patient-centered care, this new series of handbooks aims to fill this gap by showcasing the expanded roles and responsibilities of pharmacists. It will be first of its kind to provide comprehensive information about evidence-based pharmacist care, providing the latest research, guidelines, and up-to-date best practices. This handbook series is unique in that each volume covers a specific topic, such as infectious diseases, gastrointestinal diseases, and cardiovascular diseases (to name just three areas) and will explore the impact of pharmacist care on patients in clinical settings, consider the economics and humanistic outcomes, as well as discuss the challenges and present helpful advice for implementing effective pharmacist care. The volumes will also delve into the implications, methods, and challenges of providing online and distance pharmacist care services for the specific diseases and conditions as well. The first volume in the series, Volume 1: Cardiovascular Diseases, offers an in-depth look at the multifaceted and critical role pharmacists play in managing cardiovascular diseases, a domain where the pharmacist role is both critical and transformative. By focusing on conditions such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, angina, myocardial infarction, heart failure, arrhythmias, thrombosis, and shock, the volume presents a holistic view of the clinical, economical, and humanistic impact of pharmacists in cardiovascular care. Each chapter in this book presents the latest research, guidelines, and up-to-date best practices and provides evidence-based insights into the management of these conditions, emphasizing the pharmacist role in optimizing therapeutic outcomes. A distinctive feature of this book is its emphasis on the economic and humanistic aspects of pharmacist care and its recognition of the value of pharmacists extends beyond clinical interventions to include cost-effective healthcare solutions and compassionate, patient-centered care. This approach is particularly crucial in managing chronic conditions like cardiovascular diseases, where long-term therapy and patient adherence play vital roles.
