Treatment Planning In Implant Dentistry (BDJ Clinician’s Guides)
by Saj Jivraj Winston CheeThis book outlines a comprehensive interdisciplinary practice philosophy designed for developing the foundation of optimal diagnosis and treatment planning in implant dentistry. Each chapter will have a comprehensive literature review followed by diagnosis, treatment planning and comprehensive patient case presentations. The goal of modern implant dentistry is no longer represented solely by successful osseointegration. In order to claim success, the definitive restorations must be surrounded by a soft and hard tissue environment in harmony with the existing dentition. This book focuses on analogue and digital workflows from single tooth to full mouth. It discusses the approach of interdisciplinary therapy which involves the combination of knowledge, skills, and experience of all the disciplines of dentistry. Information on the rationale for dental implants and surgical guidelines is provided as well as on the biomechanics of occlusion and the medical evaluation of the implant patient. Subsequent chapters cover treatment planning in the aesthetic zone, impression techniques and scanning, the role of orthodontics in implant dentistry, and screw and cemented restorations. Implant maintenance and failures and complications are discussed in the final part of this book, which is a valuable resource for a wide range of practitioners.

Treatment Program Evaluation: Public Health Perspectives on Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders
by Allyson KelleyThis invaluable text provides a rigorous guide to the assessment and evaluation of treatment programs through a multi-disciplinary, holistic model of care. It highlights issues of race, social justice, and health equity, and offers real-world guidance to effect community healing and transformation. Written by a researcher and experienced evaluator, the book begins by outlining the theories and research which frame our understanding of substance misuse, and upon which treatment programs are based. It then examines the principles which should underpin any evaluation, before detailing the practical various steps required to conduct an evaluation, from data collection to outcome measurement. The book shows, too, through detailed and effective evaluation, policy changes can be made and treatment programs improved. Including practical examples of evaluation and assessment throughout, and also assessing the numerous social systems which can support recovery, the book builds to a four-step public health model for establishing sustainable treatment programs.

Treatment Strategy for Unexplained Infertility and Recurrent Miscarriage
by Satoru Takeda Keiji Kuroda Jan J. Brosens Siobhan QuenbyThis book offers a highly informative guide to treating unexplained infertility and recurrent miscarriage (RM). In particular, it provides detailed treatment strategies for infertility or RM derived from uterine circumstance such as chronic endometritis and perturbation of endometrial decidualization, as well as maternal immunological rejection of an embryo as semi-allograft.Unexplained infertility refers to those types that cannot be detected by the general screening test. The causes are sometimes detected in the course of treatment with assisted reproductive technology including IVF. However, some unexplained infertility is intractable even after intracytoplasmic sperm injection or repeated implantation of morphologically suitable embryos. Patients with unexplained RM also have a high likelihood of undetectable risk factors of miscarriage. As a result, gynecologists often repeatedly provide these couples with general treatments for infertility and miscarriage or even discontinue treatment because they cannot detect the reason, which places serious financial, physical and mental burdens on the couples affected. This book offers gynecologists essential insights into the pathological condition of unexplained infertility and RM, equipping them to identify it, explain it to patients, and consider further examinations and more aggressive fertility treatments.

Treatment for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in Military and Veteran Populations: Final Assessment
by Committee on the Assessment of Ongoing Efforts in the Treatment of Posttraumatic Stress DisorderPosttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is one of the signature injuries of the U. S. conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, but it affects veterans of all eras. It is estimated that 7-20% of service members and veterans who served in Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom may have the disorder. PTSD is characterized by a combination of mental health symptoms - re-experiencing of a traumatic event, avoidance of trauma-associated stimuli, adverse alterations in thoughts and mood, and hyperarousal - that last at least 1 month and impair functioning. PTSD can be lifelong and pervade all aspects of a service member's or veteran's life, including mental and physical health, family and social relationships, and employment. It is often concurrent with other health problems, such as depression, traumatic brain injury, chronic pain, substance abuse disorder, and intimate partner violence. The Department of Defense (DoD) and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) provide a spectrum of programs and services to screen for, diagnose, treat for, and rehabilitate service members and veterans who have or are at risk for PTSD. The 2010 National Defense Authorization Act asked the Institute of Medicine to assess those PTSD programs and services in two phases. The Phase 1 study, "Treatment for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in Military and Veteran Populations: Initial Assessment," focused on data gathering. "Treatment for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in Military and Veteran Populations Final Assessment" is the report of the second phase of the study. This report analyzes the data received in Phase 1 specifically to determine the rates of success for each program or method. "Treatment for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in Military and Veteran Populations Final Assessment" considers what a successful PTSD management system is and whether and how such a system is being implemented by DoD and VA. This includes an assessment of what care is given and to whom, how effectiveness is measured, what types of mental health care providers are available, what influences whether a service member or veteran seeks care, and what are the costs associated with that care. This report focuses on the opportunities and challenges that DoD and VA face in developing, implementing, and evaluating services and programs in the context of achieving a high-performing system to care for service members and veterans who have PTSD. The report also identifies where gaps or new emphases might be addressed to improve prevention of, screening for, diagnosis of, and treatment and rehabilitation for the disorder. The findings and recommendations of "Treatment for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder in Military and Veteran Populations: Final Assessment" will encourage DoD and VA to increase their efforts in moving toward a high-performing, comprehensive, integrated PTSD management strategy that addresses the needs of current and future service members, veterans, and their families.
