This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Surgery of the Pancreas, as Based Upon Experiments and Clinical Researches In some of the higher invertebrates certain organs connected with the alimentary canal have received the name of pancreas; but they have done so rather from their position and inferred function than from any certain evidence of their use, or from their anatomical structure. If they exist, they consist of simple cæcal appendages attached to the upper part of the intestine. In the osseous fishes, certain cæca or blind tubes may be seen at the commencement of the intestinal canal, close to the pylorus, which from their position have received the name of pyloric appendages, and have been regarded by most anatomists as the analogue of the pancreas in higher animals. In reptiles, we make a greater approach to the structure of the pancreas of higher animals, both in form and structure. In the frog the pancreas is shaped not unlike that of the human subject, but its broad end is in the opposite direction. It is in close approximation with the duodenum in its whole length. A proper duct cannot be found; probably small ducts from different parts of the gland open into the biliary duct as it passes through the gland. The pancreas of birds is proportionately larger than in any other animal. The gland has always more than one, usually two or three ducts which open by separate orifices and often at some considerable distance from one another. The chief differences between the pancreas in other mammalia and man relate merely to its color, its consistence, its degree of lobulation, its form, its volume, its union into a single mass or its separation into two distinct parts, and, lastly, its position and relations with different portions of the peritoneum. Its form is generally more or less that of a narrow band, divisible into two portions: one, the duodenal, following the curvature of the duodenum, and placed vertically or obliquely; the other, the gastrosplenic, extending transversely, and therefore opposite the other, from the duodenum to the spleen, against which it rests; the latter is always developed, the former is often defective or absent, and must be considered merely as an accessory portion.

Download or read book Schein s Common Sense Emergency Abdominal Surgery written by Moshe Schein and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ix Preface Smart surgeons learn from their own mistakes, smarter surgeons learn from mistakes of others, some never learn . . . You are a resident, overworked and constantly tired; sitting down with your mentor for a brief tutorial. What do you want to get out of these few minutes? To organize your thoughts and approaches to the particular problem; to learn how he -the weathered surgeon -"tackles it"; to grasp a few practical "recipes" or "goodies" and take home a message or two; to laugh a bit and unwind. This is also our goal in this book. We hope that you are not repelled or offended by the non-formal character of this book. This is how emergency abdominal surgery is taught best, by trial and error and repetitions, with emphasis on basics. This is not a "complete" textbook, nor is it a cookbook type manual or discussion of case studies; neither is it a collection of detailed lecture notes or exhaustive lists. Instead, it consists of a series of informal, uncensored, chats between experienced surgeons and their trainees. No percentages, series, elaborated figures or complicated algorithms are included; only a surgeon's narrative, explaining how "he does it" -based on his experience and state of the art knowledge of the literature. No references are included as it was our aim to put down nothing which has not been experienced, confirmed and practiced in our own hands.

Download or read book Eco facts and Eco fiction written by William H. Baarschers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ozone-friendly, recyclable, zero-waste, elimination of toxic chemicals - such environmental ideals are believed to offer solutions to the environmental crisis. Where do these ideals come from? Is the environmental debate communicating the right problems? Eco-Facts and Eco-Fiction examines serious errors in perceptions about human and environmental health. Drawing on a wealth of everyday examples of local and global concerns, the author explains basic concepts and observations relating to the environment. Removing fear of science and technology and eliminating wrong perceptions lead to a more informed understanding of the environment as a science, a philosophy, and a lifestyle. By revealing the flaws in today's environmental vocabulary, this book stresses the urgent need for a common language in the environmental debate. Such a common language encourages the effective communication between environmental science and environmental decision-making that is essential for finding solutions to environmental problems.

Emergency room visitors come in all shapes and sizes, at any time of day or night, with a wide range of maladies.

A cornerstone of emergency medicine training is the constant drilling and re-drilling of simulated cases and clinical scenarios.

Each case provides the opportunity for learning essential clinical concepts. Focused exclusively on the needs of in-training emergency physicians and nurses, the book covers more than 100 common and unusual cases in emergency medicine. The procedures have been class-tested by the Stanford/Kaiser Emergency Medicine Residency Program.
