Chronic Illnesses IV/Pediatrics I and II — PSAP-V, Book 9 |
 |
The newest book in ACCP's Pharmacotherapy Self-Assessment Program, Chronic Illnesses IV and Pediatrics, is the second of two PSAP-V books to focus on disease states affecting ambulatory populations. It covers common chronic illnesses facing ambulatory care and primary care practitioners. Thus, chapters on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and Alzheimer's disease have been included. These practitioners see the entire spectrum of patients from infants and toddlers to the elderly, and many disease states such as asthma affect the entire age spectrum (highest morbidity in young children and highest death rate in elderly). In addition, diseases once thought to be only "childhood diseases" are now becoming adult diseases thanks to both improved therapy and outcomes (cystic fibrosis) and improved diagnostics and treatment (attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder).
The Chronic Illnesses IV and Pediatrics book provides clinicians with the entire spectrum of disease and disease management from the treatment and prophylaxis of bronchiolitis in infants and immunosuppressed adults to the treatment of pediatric oncologic disorders and the long-term chronic illnesses in adults that occur secondary to that treatment. Not only do the authors delineate the current state-of-the-art disease treatment, but they also paint the larger canvas of disease therapy and prophylaxis throughout life. A chapter on cerebral palsy, a chronic debilitating disorder of children and adults, will make its debut. The chapters will help those who work in the ambulatory care settings to appreciate the complexity of problems that they may not see routinely and to become more involved with these patients.
The Chronic Illnesses IV and Pediatrics book offers a total of 21.5 continuing pharmacy education credits, if all three tests are taken.
