Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universal Medical Journal, Vol. 11: January, 1897 Either the diagnosis was very bad or the therapy was murderous. He had been studying the health reports Of the State of Michigan since 1886, and had noticed that, at first, many cases Of typhoid and typho-malarial fever were reported, but gradually, year by year, the typho-malarial cases had been disappearing, while the malarial and the typhoid cases were slightly increasing. He said that the State Board Of Health Of Maryland would shortly make a complete investigation to ascertain the sanitary conditions in reference to typhoid in Maryland, and letters would be written to every physician in the State. This would be the happiest and most profitable 'investment Maryland ever made. If we could place with the board Of experts enough money to make a substantial beginning Of the reform, its members would realize the possibilities that Dr. Osler had maintained.

This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universal Medical Journal (Formerly the Satellite), 1895, Vol. 3: A Monthly Magazine of the Progress of Every Branch of Medicine in All Parts of the World Treatment of Appendicitis. - The meeting was almost exclusively de voted to the discussion of the treatment of appendicitis and perityphlitis, a discussion which arose after the reading of a paper on the subject at the last meeting by M. Millard, in which medical treatment was advocated to the almost entire exclusion of surgical measures. There was a consensus of opinion that surgeons generally for the past several years have shown a too marked tendency to operate in such cases. Clinical observation proved, in their minds, that the disease can be cured in the majority of cases without operation. M. DU cazal, who sees five or six cases a year in young soldiers at the val-de-grfice hospital, agreed completely with M. Millard, that the disease was one for medical treatment mainly. The other speakers differed from this more or less, and believed that while operation should not be undertaken in all cases, while intervention should be rarer than non intervention, it was absolutely necessary in a certain number of instances. Surgical treatment was indicated (1) in cases of generalized peritonitis from perforation; (2) in perforating appendicitis having an acute course; (3) in cases in which the purulent collection had reached a certain volume; (4) in recurrent cases of appendicitis. These indications, it may be re marked, are almost exactly the same as those given by M. Talamon in his work upon the subject. MM. Ll Gamma, Sam-ran, and Morzm were of accord in declaring that the patients should be most carefully watched, and, should any doubt as to the line of action arise, operation should be preferred. A diagnosis should, if possible, be made between perityphlitis of stercoral origin and appendicitis. This can be done in a certain number of cases.

He had had occasion to observe, he had found, together with the classic secondary degeneration, an ascending degeneration of the anterior pyramids. This does not appear to be connected with a destructive process Of the funicular cells of the gray substance, but with a retrograde degeneration - a fact already supported by experimental anatomy.

Book Power  Politics  and Universal Health Care

Download or read book Power Politics and Universal Health Care written by Stuart Altman and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2011-09-27 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essential reading for every American who must navigate the US health care system. Why was the Obama health plan so controversial and difficult to understand? In this readable, entertaining, and substantive book, Stuart Altman—internationally recognized expert in health policy and adviser to five US presidents—and fellow health care specialist David Shactman explain not only the Obama health plan but also many of the intriguing stories in the hundred-year saga leading up to the landmark 2010 legislation. Blending political intrigue, policy substance, and good old-fashioned storytelling, this is the first book to place the Obama health plan within a historical perspective. The authors describe the sometimes haphazard, piece-by-piece construction of the nation’s health care system, from the early efforts of Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman to the later additions of Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush. In each case, they examine the factors that led to success or failure, often by illuminating little-known political maneuvers that brought about immense shifts in policy or thwarted herculean efforts at reform. The authors look at key moments in health care history: the Hill–Burton Act in 1946, in which one determined poverty lawyer secured the rights of the uninsured poor to get hospital care; the "three-layer cake" strategy of powerful House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Wilbur Mills to enact Medicare and Medicaid under Lyndon Johnson in 1965; the odd story of how Medicare catastrophic insurance was passed by Ronald Reagan in 1988 and then repealed because of public anger in 1989; and the fact that the largest and most expensive expansion of Medicare was enacted by George W. Bush in 2003. President Barack Obama is the protagonist in the climactic chapter, learning from the successes and failures chronicled throughout the narrative. The authors relate how, in the midst of a worldwide financial meltdown, Obama overcame seemingly impossible obstacles to accomplish what other presidents had tried and failed to achieve for nearly one hundred years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dying at the Margins: Reflections on Justice and Healing for Inner-City Poor gives voice to the most vulnerable and disempowered population-the urban dying poor- and connects them to the voices of leaders in end-of-life-care. Chapters written by these experts in the field discuss the issues that challenge patients and their loved ones, as well as offering insights into how to improve the quality of their lives. In an illuminating and timely follow up to Dancing with Broken Bones, all discussions revolve around the actual experiences of the patients previously documented, encouraging a greater understanding about the needs of the dying poor, advocating for them, and developing best practices in caring. Demystifying stereotypes that surround poverty, Moller illuminates how faith, remarkable optimism, and an unassailable spirit provide strength and courage to the dying poor.Dying at the Margins serves as a rallying call for not only end-of-life professionals, but compassionate individuals everywhere, to understand and respond to the needs of the especially vulnerable, yet inspiring, people who comprise the world of the inner city dying poor.

  • Pages : 399 pages

Download or read book Crossing the Global Quality Chasm written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2019-01-27 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2015, building on the advances of the Millennium Development Goals, the United Nations adopted Sustainable Development Goals that include an explicit commitment to achieve universal health coverage by 2030. However, enormous gaps remain between what is achievable in human health and where global health stands today, and progress has been both incomplete and unevenly distributed. In order to meet this goal, a deliberate and comprehensive effort is needed to improve the quality of health care services globally. Crossing the Global Quality Chasm: Improving Health Care Worldwide focuses on one particular shortfall in health care affecting global populations: defects in the quality of care. This study reviews the available evidence on the quality of care worldwide and makes recommendations to improve health care quality globally while expanding access to preventive and therapeutic services, with a focus in low-resource areas. Crossing the Global Quality Chasm emphasizes the organization and delivery of safe and effective care at the patient/provider interface. This study explores issues of access to services and commodities, effectiveness, safety, efficiency, and equity. Focusing on front line service delivery that can directly impact health outcomes for individuals and populations, this book will be an essential guide for key stakeholders, governments, donors, health systems, and others involved in health care.
