This book will provide information, knowledge and guidance on the safe and the best way to use medical devices and technologies for the prevention and treatment of common diseases and conditions.
Today, more than ever, the pharmacist is a full-member of the health team and many of the pharmacist’s patients are using a host of other devices from various specialty areas of medicine and surgery. Medical Devices for Pharmacy and Other Healthcare Professions presents a comprehensive review of most devices that pharmacists and pharmacy personnel encounter during practice. The devices covered are relevant to pharmacists working in various work settings from hospitals, community pharmacies, and health insurance sector, to regulatory bodies, academia, and research institutes. Even if a pharmacist does not come across each of these devices on a regular basis, the book is a valuable reference source for those occasions when information is needed by a practitioner, and for instructing interns and residents.

The book discusses devices needed for special pharmaceutical services and purposes such as residential care homes and primary care based with GPs, pharmacy-based smoking cessation services, pharmacy-based anticoagulant services, pain management and terminal care, medication adherence and automation in hospital pharmacy.

Additional features include:






Provides information on devices regarding theory, indications, and procedures concerning use, cautions, and place, in therapy.



Assists pharmacists in understanding medical devices and instructing patients with the use of these devices.



Focuses on providing the available evidence on effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of devices and the latest information in the particular field.



Other healthcare providers interested in medical devices or involved in patients care where medical devices represent part of the provided care would benefit from the book.
