Advances in medicine have led to patients surviving and living longer with their chronic disease, increasing the risk that they will develop other comorbidities. Exchanging information across specialties and learning from each other may lead to a better understanding of patients’ challenges and likely also enhance collaboration across disciplines and lead to better quality of care for patients. The textbook is an international and multi-disciplinary team effort written by experts in their field. It is relevant for professionals from many disciplines, such as practitioners or researchers from health care, nursing, physiotherapy, general practice, medical psychology, and clinical psychology. Due to the contributions of specialists in diverse fields the textbook has information relevant to those interested in learning about many different specialized areas, such as endocrinology, cardiology, rheumatology, nephrology, and pain research.

Hardcover. Condición: New. "Health care involves a complex interplay of medical and behavioural expertise. This book offers both a broad overview of medical psychology and some deep dives into specific areas of practice. We are, I suspect, only beginning to discover the ways in which medical and psychological science offer complementary paths for healing. Medical professionals face a broad range of challenges beyond acute healing. As reflected in the chapters of this book, much of current medical practice involves managing chronic conditions that are related to patients' behaviour and lifestyle. Whether or not a disease was caused by lifestyle, its course, management, and outcome are often intertwined with behavioural choices. Even in acute care, pharmacotherapy and physical rehabilitation rely on patients adhering to prescribed medication or practices. Behaviour change is therefore fundamental in health care; yet it often receives relatively little time and attention in medical training". Nº de ref. del artículo: PGUPSD07
