Infos

Examining-room computers require doctors to record detailed data about their patients, yet reduce the time clinicians can spend listening attentively to the very people they are trying to help. This book presents original essays by distinguished experts in their fields, addressing this critical problem and making an urgent case for reform, because while electronic technology has revolutionized the practice of medicine, it also poses a unique challenge to health care. Smartphones in the hands of doctors and nurses have become dangerously seductive devices that can endanger their patients. 

Distracted Doctoring is written for anesthesiologists and surgeons, as well as general practitioners, nurses, and health care administrators and students. Chapters include Electronic Challenges to Patient Safety and Care; Distraction, Disengagement, and the Purpose of Medicine; and Managing Distractions through Advocacy, Education, and Change.

Peter J. Papadakos, MD, is Professor of Anesthesiology, Surgery, Neurosurgery, and Neurology at the University of  Rochester Medical Center in New York, where he serves as Director of the Division of Critical Care, and is Professor of Respiratory Care and Medical Director at the State University of New York at Genesee Community College.  He is the co-editor of Encyclopedia of Trauma Care (Springer) as well as the author of numerous monographs, book chapters, original papers, and reviews.
