The Atlas of Osteoarthritis concludes with the latest treatment updates including both nonpharmacological and pharmacological treatments, as well as surgical recommendations for patients with the disease. Osteoarthritis is the most common form of joint disease causing joint pain, stiffness, and physical disability among adults. It is an important issue for both the individual and society with its impact on public health continuing to grow as a result of the aging population, the rising prevalence of obesity, and the lack of definitive treatments to prevent or halt the progress of the disease.

Eular Compendium on Rheumatic Diseases

ISBN-13: 9781905545353
DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe compendium on Rheumatic Diseases found its origin in the successful EULAR on-line course on rheumatic diseases. The yearly updated reviews of the fifty modules of that course form the content of this book. Each chapter is written by two dedicated expert rheumatologists from two different countries, to get a balanced view. Most of them were assisted by a junior doctor or researcher from their own department, in order to stimulate focus on modern educational goals and techniques. The fifty chapters, encompassing the whole spectrum of rheumatology, brought together in a textbook, are a vital part of rheumatologists' continuing medical education, keeping doctors up to date in daily practice. The structure of the chapters in the Compendium is the same as the one of the modules in the on-line course: starting with learning points, text with many figures, tables and pictures, a summary, and a limited number of key references.
