This text for pharmacists emphasizes the role that pharmacists play in palliative care and describes the challenges they face. The book begins by examining the scope of hospice and palliative medicine in various practice settings and disease states. Next, chapters on pain and symptom management provide in-depth reviews of various symptoms. Each of these chapters reviews assessment, pathophysiology, and pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment. Clinical pearls, key points, and case studies with discussion questions are included. Following the pain and symptom management chapters, advanced care planning and ethical issues in palliative care are discussed in the context of the role of the pharmacist, with material on issues such as the role of the pharmacist in hospice care and in palliative care research. Strickland is affiliated with Lakeland Regional Medical Center. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
