PT 826 Reading Assignment The information given in the article by Lau, Chiu, & Lam (2010) about using thoracic manipulation for the treatment of neck pain was very new to me. There were several instances in the past where I treated patients with neck pain by giving mobilizations techniques and modalities in and around cervical area. This article was a convincing one which helped me to understand the concept of biomechanical and etiological relationship between cervical and thoracic structures and how this knowledge can be capitalized by effectively using thoracic mobilization in patients suffering from chronic mechanical neck pain.…
Purpose: To evaluate the use and efficacy of Stroke Thrombolysis as a treatment in a blocked artery that has caused ischemic stroke. Description of Pathology: Ischemic strokes account for 87% of all stroke incidents, making this type of stroke the most common. Ischemic strokes occur as a result of a blood clot plugging or obstructing an artery carrying blood to the brain. This keeps oxygen and nutrient rich blood from flowing into the brain.…
I state that the author used an admiring tone because the author really looks up to the professionals in the field of neuroradiology as they were able to come up and invent the endovascular thrombectomy procedure which can lead to saving more lives of stroke patients. This procedure is not only effective but also does not bring any bad side effects to the patient. Other than that, I also state that the author used an appreciative tone. This is because the author interviewed several patients who have undergone this procedure. They were all able to live till this day due to this procedure.…
Most people understand that fetuses are extremely fragile and should not be exposed to ionizing radiation; thus, health care providers utilize ultrasound for prenatal imaging. But how safe is ultrasound imaging? Is it safe enough to warrant a fetus’s exposure? Sonography is a safe choice for prenatal imaging, but there are some suspected risks involved. However, the benefits outweigh those risks as long as scans are completed appropriately, especially when it comes to the 3D and 4D ultrasounds.…
fluid and hemorrhages under the skin. This treatment modality will give physical incitement and signs that patient can't provide.

To minimize or try to reduce this bias an external examiner would have assessed the outcoming patients of the study during the follow-up, yet there is a change that the own patient will tell the examinator or the own examinator will noticed the CB ablation intervention from the scarf of the postoperative; Regarding to that, we have decided that the examinator will be the same professional as the one that have done the procedure. Statistical consultant won’t be aware about what therapy has been assigned in the different subjects so the bias will be reduced. h. Interventions The main objective of this study is to compare free AF burden after CB ablation and AADs in treating patients with paroxysmal AF as a first-line treatment. One treatment group will receive the intervention A: CB ablation.…

You are to be seen not heard; only speak when spoken to; hold your head up high, and cross your legs at the ankles when you sit. These were some of the common mores followed by women in history.

Instead, their lives are placed in the hands of men such as their husband, whom they may have been forced to marry by their father. This is just a slight example of how a female's life was under the influence of a man.…
Trepanation is one of the oldest know surgical techniques. It was practiced in countries all over the world but seems to have originated from places in and around Europe. Trepanning is the process of drilling, grooving, boring and cutting or scraping a hole, usually no bigger than an inch or so, into a person’s head, therefore exposing the dura matter and allowing brain tissue to freely pulsate –increasing blood flow. Figure 1 shows the four methods, 1-scraping 2-grooving 3- boring and cutting 4- rectangular intersecting cuts.…
Related Treatments The decision to perform surgical treatment to evacuate a chronic subdural hematoma was guided by the clinical presentation of the patient and the radiographic appearance of the lesion (Soleman, Taussky, Fandino, & Muroi, 2014). The patient’s CT scan revealed a hypodense chronic subdural hematoma with a midline shift. She was prepared for immediate surgical evacuation.
