En una época de continuos cambios y de un crecimiento asombroso de la información, el estudiante debe tambien cambiar sus metodos de estudio y utilizar: videos, paginas web, bases de datos electronicas, etc. Pero junto a estas nuevas herramientas docentes nos parece necesario disponer de un Manual que abarque de forma sistematica los principales temas de la patologia infecciosa. Nuestro proposito es recoger en un texto todo lo imprescindible para que el estudiante domine los elementos basicos de las enfermedades infecciosas y sea en un futuro capaz de reconocerlas en su practica clinica. En la presente edicion hemos adoptado el formato clasico de comenzar con los principales sindromes clinicos y posteriormente tratar las enfermedades segun su etiologia. La pretension es que este texto se lea de principio a fin. Somos conscientes de que aun con una extension limitada, los 54 temas suponen un reto para el que estudia, pero bajo el principio de que lo que no se conoce no se puede diagnosticar no hemos querido renunciar a ninguno de ellos. Existen excelentes tratados de enfermedades infecciosas y de medicina interna, a los que se remite al lector siempre que considere conveniente ampliar conocimientos.Nuestras expectativas se veran colmadas si esta obra sirve para que los estudiantes puedan conocer lo esencial de las enfermedades infecciosas.

Risk Analysis is coming to medical laboratories. But for too many labs, Risk Analysis is a buzzword without meaning, an approach without defined technique. At worst, it threatens to appear like science while being implemented like guesswork.In this book, Dr. Westgard surveys the ISO standards, as well as published CLSI guidelines, and the long-established Joint Commission methodology for Proactive Risk Reduction.After providing an overview of the general Risk Analysis approach, Dr. Westgard explains how to adapt the principles for the medical laboratory, with performance-based tools and practical implementation tips:- Process maps, flowcharts and fishbone diagrams- Risk Acceptability matrices- Assessment of hazards through Failure Mode Effects Analysis (FMEA)- Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) and Failure Reporting, Analysis and Corrective Actions System (FRACAS)- Six Sigma metric integration into Risk AnalysisUsing Six Sigma metrics, Dr. Westgard shows how Risk Analysis can be converted from qualitative and ephemeral to something more quantitative and concrete. When performance data informs Risk Analysis, the decisions become more relevant to medical laboratories and the patients they serve.Don''t settle for arbitrary guesswork in your Risk Analysis. Combine the power of Six Sigma and Risk Analysis tools.
