U.S. Army Medical Department Journal (January-March 1999)
Abstract
This issue of the AMEDD Journal spotlights the Knowledge Management Network (KMN) and the information-sharing potential it promises. Also in this issue are four other articles and a book review. "Psychological Aspects of Deployment: The Bosnian Experience" details the psychological impact of deployment on soldiers, with implications for mission effectiveness and soldier well-being. "Stress-Free Endodontics by Case Selection" highlights the practice of endodontics in general dentistry practice. All healthcare professionals will appreciate the underlying message of careful patient selection when applying therapeutic treatments. "Asia-Pacific Medicine Conference: AMEDD Support of the National Security Strategy" outlines the AMEDD's continued support and involvement in the nation's security strategy in one of the world's most important social, political, and economic regions. Of particular note is the use of an annual conference to link participants and share information. "Human Dimensions Research during Operation 'Joint Guard,' Bosnia" reports on a study from the Walter Reed institute of Research regarding the psychological status of soldiers deployed to Bosnia. This report has implications for combat stress control measures designed to keep the force fit. The Book Review features a comprehensive examination of a reference textbook dealing with the causes and multiple hazards of sepsis and septic infection.
