Download or read book The Theory of Advanced First Aid written by J.A. Wood and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When someone has successfully completed a Standard First Aid Course, they often have a desire to extend their knowledge of first aid. The aim of this book is to give the holders of a Standard First Aid Certificate the opportunity to study the principles of first aid in greater detail. It is not intended to convert the first aider into a highly trained paramedic - so a discussion on the use of intra venous fluids, defibrillators etc., is beyond the scope of this book. It is hoped that the book will provide a useful in-depth study for demonstrators, instructors and first aiders likely to be involved in ambulance duties. I am very grateful to Brigadier D.O. O'Brien, Chief Medical Adviser, British Red Cross Society and Mrs. R.H. Smith, Assistant Branch Director (Training), Leicestershire Branch of the British Red Cross Society for their helpful comments and encouragement. I acknowledge the use of illustrations from the Clinical Symposia Series by CIBA on the "Heimlich Manoeuvre" to form the basis of Figures 3.7,3.8 and 3.9.
Download or read book Medicine s Michelangelo written by Francine Mary Netter and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-06 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medicine's Michelangelo: The Life & Art of Frank H. Netter, MD, is the first biography of this illustrious figure, who is revered by generations of students of medicine. Netter was the son of working class immigrants who owned a stationery store inthe theater district of New York. In his youth, all he ever wanted to do was to paint, but his mother wanted him to do "something 'respectable' like being a doctor or an engineer." He finished an internship in medicine and surgery at Bellevue Hospital, but found that there was more demand for his sable brush than for his scalpel, and for the next fifty years devoted himselffull time to making medical illustrations. He moved into both the glamorous New York art world and intellectual medical circles. He lived in opulent homes on Long Island and in Palm Beach, lunched at the Society of Illustrators with the likes of Norman Rockwell and Rube Goldberg, and at the great teaching hospitals consulted with hundreds of medical experts, among them Drs. Michael DeBakey, C. Everett Koop, Albert Sabin, and Paul Dudley White.Frank Netter single-handedly documented the great medical advances of the 20th century. Francine Mary Netter captures the character of the man, relying on her remembrances; her father's autobiographical notes, personal correspondence, and private files; publications of his work; public archives; and more than 100 interviews with family members, artists, distinguished practitioners, and scientists. Medicine's Michelangelo reveals the man behind the art.

Download or read book Heimlich s Maneuvers written by Henry J. Heimlich and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Here, in his own words, is the story of one of the twentieth century's most creative medical innovators, Dr. Henry Heimlich. The thoracic surgeon is best known for having developed the Heimlich Maneuver, the world's easiest-to-learn and most universally known method to save people from choking to death on food or foreign objects. But many don't know about Dr. Heimlich's other life-saving inventions. He is the inventor of the Heimlich Chest Drain Valve, which saved thousands of lives during the Vietnam War, and the Heimlich MicroTrach, which provides a remarkably efficient way for people to take oxygen. In the present decade, Dr. Heimlich has turned his attention to two devastating illnesses for which medicine has not yet found a cure--cancer and HIV. He describes his research and its promise, as well as the controversy and resistance his new ideas have generated from the medical establishment. Interweaving the author's personal life with riveting stories of his numerous medical breakthroughs, this rich memoir provides insights into the workings of a creative mind and the machinations of the American medical system."
