In recent years, advanced molecular techniques in diagnostic microbiology have been revolutionizing the practice of clinical microbiology in the hospital setting. Molecular diagnostic testing in general and nucleic acid-based amplification methods in particular have been heralded as diagnostic tools for the new millennium. This third edition covers not only the most recent updates and advances, but details newly invented omic techniques, such as next generation sequencing. It is divided into two distinct volumes, with Volume 1 describing the techniques, and Volume 2 addressing their applications in the field. In addition, both volumes focus more so on the clinical relevance of the test results generated by these techniques than previous editions.
Hydroxyapatite in the form of hydroxycarbonate apatite is the principal mineral component of bone tissue in mammals. In Bioceramics, it is classed as a bioactive material, which means bone tissue grows directly on it when placed in apposition without intervening fibrous tissue. Hydroxyapatite is hence commonly used as bone grafts, fillers and as coatings for metal implants. This important book provides an overview of the most recent research and developments involving hydroxyapatite as a key material in medicine and its application. - Reviews the important properties of hydroxyapatite as a biomaterial - Considers a range of specific forms of the material and their advantages - Reviews a range of specific medical applications for this important material
Instructor Resources: Suggested case solutions (Word or Excel formats) Financial issues are of paramount importance in today's rapidly changing and increasingly competitive healthcare environment. Healthcare managers must understand accounting and financial management concepts and be prepared to operationalize them in their organizations. Healthcare Applications: A Casebook in Accounting and Financial Management provides a series of practice exercises for analyzing, understanding, and applying these concepts across a wide range of healthcare settings. Healthcare Applications contains 56 short cases designed to link theory to practical, real-world application via active learning. Based on fictitious entities and individuals (unless otherwise noted), the cases cover basic concepts--such as how to record transactions, compute financial ratios, and prepare financial statements--as well as more advanced issues, such as the effects of healthcare regulation, the valuation of debt or equity securities, cost-volume-profit analysis, and capital budgeting. Each case features assignments or questions to enhance students' critical thinking and generate classroom engagement. Instructors can select case topics and difficulty levels that are most appropriate for their courses. The book's cases can be either assigned as out-of-class homework or used directly in class to introduce a topic or facilitate discussion.

"While the future of US healthcare is unclear the move toward value-based care is undoubtedly its next major shift. Reimbursement payment programs have already begun this metamorphosis and are increasingly being tied to quality measures. With the urgency of revolutionary change in the background, the healthcare organization must transform its care and business models to evolve into a next-level healthcare enterprise. In Essential Operational Components for High-Performing Healthcare Enterprises, Jon Burroughs and other nationally respected experts highlight the building blocks necessary to transform a healthcare organization into an integrated delivery system.
