Download or read book Upright On Broken Limbs written by Barbara J. Weekley and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-05 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the other "casualties" of trauma and loss. It is a tool and guide designed to help the spouse and family members process the catastrophic event affecting their loved one. For Barbara, her husband's Traumatic Brain Injury left her emotionally paralyzed and physically drained until she devised a simple "sense-ability therapy" which she could implement at any time of the day or night. Barbara demonstrates how her "personal 911" experience evolved into a positive progression which piques the senses and strengthens the most forlorn spirit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides in-depth coverage of all aspects of pelvic ring fractures and their management. The opening chapters supply essential information on surgical anatomy, biomechanics, classification, clinical evaluation, radiological diagnostics, and emergency and acute management. The various operative techniques, including navigation techniques, that have been established and standardized over the past two decades are then presented in a step-by-step approach. Readers will find guidance on surgical indications, choice of approaches, reduction and fixation strategies, complication management, and optimization of long-term results. Specific treatment concepts are described for age-specific fractures, including pediatric and geriatric injuries, and secondary reconstructions. Pelvic ring fractures represent challenging injuries, especially when they present with concomitant hemodynamic instability. This book will help trauma and orthopaedic surgeons at all levels of experience to achieve the primary treatment aim of anatomic restoration of the bony pelvis to preserve biomechanical stability and avoid malunion with resulting clinical impairments.

Download or read book Fractures of the Acetabulum written by E. Letournel and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been a pleasure to comply with requests to publish this book in English. During the intervening years, there has been little to add to our views as to the best management of acetabular fractures, but an additional chapter has been incorporated comprising recent findings in our patients and slight changes in emphasis on the indications for operations. Additionally, having recognised that one of the greatest difficulties in this method of treatment lies in the pre-operative assessment of the standard radiographs, we have prepared a short series of radiographs which the reader may find advantageous for study. We are grateful to Mr. Reginald Eison who has translated and revised the French edition. Considerable alteration of the text and the general presen tation was necessary in order to make the material palatable in English. Our thanks are due to our new publishers, Springer-Verlag, for their keen interest and skill. E. LETOURNEL R. JUDET Preface to the French Edition It is a long time since we first attempted surgical treatment of fractures of the acetabulum accompanied by displacement, with the aim of restoring perfect articulation. Such treatment demands an exact reconstitution of the anatomy of the acetabulum and pelvic bone. This volume comprises an account of our efforts to assess the place of open reduction and internal fixation of displaced fractures of the acetabulum. The principal aim is simple: the perfect restoration of the articular surface and the associated bony architecture.

Download or read book It Took A Broken Leg written by Dr. Hamid Charm and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-03-28 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Western education, then called the white man’s school, first came to the town of Dubayabia in the land of Romron at the heels of the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade, horribly frightening stories about that dreadful trade still lingered in the minds of some parents. Those stories made some parents terrified of sending their children to a white man’s school when they reached school-going age, hiding them instead, or sending only strangers. Also troubling for some residents of Dubayabia region in those days, called the Traditionalists, was the advent of foreign religions preaching against, and indiscriminately branding, their African tribal customs and cultural practices, including their safest and most cherished music and dances, as unreligious or, worse, as pagan practice. For one child named Mawudor in particular, his father, Mordibor, an ultraconservative Muslim of the Tukulor tribe, decided to send him and his elder brother Baba to a faraway remote rural village called Futa in a neighboring foreign country to study the Qur’an and acquire aspects of their Tukulor culture, instead of sending them to school. When Mordibor shared his secret plan for his sons with his friend Pa Manika, along with his other concerns about what he perceived as the un-Tukulor customs and practices of his sons’ maternal relatives in Dubayabia, his friend tried unsuccessfully to talk him out of it. Mawudor’s grandparents also tried and failed in their own way to stop Mordibor from sending their beloved grandson away. While Mordibor wanted to send his sons away to acquire Islamic and Tukulor values, instead of Western education, his son Mawudor, on the other hand, liked and dreamed about attending the white man’s school, and he also admired the customs and practices of his maternal relatives. Even fate, it seemed, was not on his father’s side. After just two years in that Koranic school in Futa, Mawudor and his brother Baba had an accident, a fall in which Mawudor broke his leg. When Mawudor was sent home, following the accident, and his father saw his broken leg, he was devastated. Mawudor’s life, it seemed, had been changed. Even the region of Dubayabia’s most famous herbalist, Mawudor’s grandmother, couldn’t fix his broken leg to its original form. Mordibor, realizing how handicapped his son Mawudor had become, changed his original plan and finally decided to send him to a white man’s school together with his younger brothers. It Took a Broken Leg is a family story in which this author chronicles the eventful experiences of the main character, Mawudor, back in time through a maze of raw African tribal beliefs, customs, and practices characterizing his people, practicing Muslims with keen interests and beliefs in secret societies, spiritual devils, and witchcraft.
Download or read book The Age Of Reason written by M. A. Raheem &Mervyn C. Charles and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2002-04-30 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author is a product of Christian dominance of the New World and its development by African slavery and Indian indentured labour, with the exclusion of the Jewish people, on the Caribbean island of Trinidad. His mother was of Portuguese descent, which might well have been part Jewish. His father was of mixed racial background of Indian-Sikhism-turned-Christian and of the European master and his slaves. Such a potent brew inevitably led to an encounter with the prophets Isa al Masih and Muhammad Mustapha, and to the rebirth of the author at the Will of ALLAH, the Only True God.
