| discharge monsel's solution: Primary Care Procedures in Women's Health Cathryn B. Heath, Sandra M. Sulik, 2010-06-03 Despite the common perception that medicine is becoming specialty driven, there are many reasons for primary care providers to offer women’s health procedures in an office setting. Women feel more comfortable having procedures done by prov- ers whom they already know and trust. Continuity of care is still valued by patients, who trust their primary care providers to work with them as collaborators in the decision-making process. Women have found that their options for care have become limited, not by their own decision, but by the lack of training of their p- vider. In rural areas, the barriers of time, expense, and travel often prevent many women from obtaining necessary care; yet many of the procedures that these women are requesting are relatively easy to learn. Positive experiences are shared by women who then refer friends and family by word of mouth. This book has been designed to assist not only the clinician performing the pro- dures covered, but also the office staff with setting up the equipment tray prior to p- forming the procedure and with preparing office documents and coding information needed to complete the procedure. Most procedures covered can be done with a mi- mum investment in equipment and require minimal training. |

| discharge monsel's solution: Comprehensive Cervical Cancer Control World Health Organization, 2006 Most women who die from cervical cancer, particularly in developing countries, are in the prime of their life. They may be raising children, caring for their family, and contributing to the social and economic life of their town or village. Their death is both a personal tragedy, and a sad and unnecessary loss to their family and their community. Unnecessary, because there is compelling evidence, as this Guide makes clear, that cervical cancer is one of the most preventable and treatable forms of cancer, as long as it is detected early and managed effectively. Unfortunately, the majority of women in developing countries still do not have access to cervical cancer prevention programmes. The consequence is that, often, cervical cancer is not detected until it is too late to be cured. An urgent effort is required if this situation is to be corrected. This Guide is intended to help those responsible for providing services aimed at reducing the burden posed by cervical cancer for women, communities and health systems. It focuses on the knowledge and skills needed by health care providers, at different levels of care. |
| discharge monsel's solution: Office-Based Gynecologic Surgical Procedures Jonathan D. Emery, Marie Fidela R. Paraiso, 2014-10-07 Recent trends in medicine have pushed many gynecologic procedures to the outpatient setting, whether in-office, in small medical ambulatory surgery centers, or in procedure rooms. Office-Based Gynecologic Surgical Procedures covers both basic and advanced procedures, from biopsy and saline ultrasound to cystoscopy. It answers the How?, What?, and When? of setting up, preparing for, and confidently performing office procedures. While appropriate training and certification in these procedures such as cystoscopy and hysteroscopy is needed, this book is an excellent resource for advice and tips on how to safely transition from the technique used in the operating room. It also provides the necessary algorithms and in-depth instructions pertinent to performing these types of procedures effectively in the office setting. A chapter on patient safety in the office is also included. Office-Based Gynecologic Surgical Procedures is ideal for established OBGYNs in practice who want to expand their range of procedures offered in-office, fellows in Women's Health, advanced nurse practitioners, recent OBGYN residency graduates, and family medicine physicians eager to familiarize themselves with women's health procedures. |

| discharge monsel's solution: Colposcopy Ralph J. Lellé, Volkmar Küppers, 2023-03-11 This comprehensive textbook and atlas provides detailed guidance on the performance and interpretation of colposcopy, with a particular focus on the diagnosis of precancerous cervical, vulvar, and vaginal lesions. The book not only describes the role of colposcopy in state of the art cervical cancer screening and triage but also covers the prevention, diagnosis, and management of cervical cancer in low-resource settings, where the vast majority of cases occur worldwide. The indications for colposcopy are clearly identified, and its use is described in a variety of specific circumstances, including during pregnancy, following surgical interventions and radiation treatment, and in the immunocompromised patient. The book will be of value for gynecologists and gynecologic oncologists, general practitioners, and family practice doctors; furthermore, physician assistants, nurses, and midwives will find it very useful for training and as a source of reference, regardless of whether they are working within an established screening program based on cytopathology and/or HPV testing or within a low-resource environment applying visual inspection as the primary screening strategy. |
