| Summary |
"The 11th edition of Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach offers excellent information to address aspects of all four of these educational outcomes, Recognizing the need for a consistent process in the delivery of patient care across the profession, the Joint Commission of Pharmacy Practitioners (JCPP) in 2014 released the Pharmacists' Patient Care Process (PPCP). The process is applicable to any practice setting where pharmacists provide patient care and for any patient care service provided by pharmacists. ACPE Standards 2016 incorporated the PPCP as a required component of the curriculum. The 11th edition of Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach provides a new chapter fully describing the PPCP's purpose and components. In a unique and very innovative approach the new edition provides a "patient care process box" for the clinical conditions addressed. Each "box" focuses on the collection and assessment of information relevant to the clinical condition, the development of a plan of treatment and its implementation, as well as how to monitor and evaluate the success of the plan. This new feature should make the 11th edition of Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach stand out from any other clinical textbook for pharmacy students. Although I have focused this foreword, primarily as a textbook for faculty and students in the United States, as a site visitor for ACPE's International Services Program, I became aware of how much previous editions of Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach have been adopted in other countries and the positive reactions from our international faculty and student colleagues. Likewise, because of the new edition's focus on the PPCP and the detail with which it is applied to various clinical conditions that pharmacists face in practice, I believe the 11th edition of Pharmacotherapy: A Pathophysiologic Approach will prove to be an outstanding source for the continuing professional development of pharmacists in all practice settings"-- Provided by publisher. |
