An upper limb amputees is an individual who has lost an arm due to a trauma or disease that has an adverse affect on the limbs. Amputees are patients that cannot perform everyday functions like they were use to doing before. Advancement of cutting-edge technology with innovations in mechanical, electrical, and software design could give them something to look forward to in the near future. This paper gives an overview of the future of sonomyography, the morphological changes of a muscle being…

Peng Wen et al. [50] used a novel index MLDoA to identify different anesthetic states of a patient during surgery. Based on the new index MLDoA, the assessment of depth of anesthesia (DoA) for a patient can be clearly monitored. Firstly, a modified Bayesian wavelet threshold is proposed to de-noise the electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. Secondly, the Hurst exponent is obtained to classify four states of anesthesia: deep anesthesia, moderate anesthesia, light anesthesia and awake. Finally, the…

Another problem with this topic is what would happen if that nurse made a mistake because it would make them really mad because they wouldn't want to mess up the patient's insides or drop an organ and many more. The wouldn’t want to make a patient mad because they care actually sue that person for malpractice which is horrible because if that happens a nurse must surrender their license to the board which becoming a nurse is the hardest thing in the world, but the greatest thing in the world.…

The time period known as the middle ages began in 500 AD after the downfall of the Roman empire and ended it in 1500 AD. the middle ages was also entitled to the name “ the dark ages” as there was no significant discovers, no phenomenal art works were produced and no scientific breakthroughs or accomplishments. during the time period, no grate medical discovers were made but instead used past medical treatments from the Romans, Greeks and Egyptians the monks put this knowledge into their texts…

0.77 mm (p = 0.036). The difference between groups was statistically significant (p < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in PI from baseline to 6 months following surgery for any group. However, a statistically significant difference in the PBI scores from baseline to 6 months following surgery was reported. The difference between groups was statistically insignificant (p > 0.05; Table 1). All PI ad PBI scores were within clinically healthy…

not extending fully around the heart and usually layering out posteriorly with gravity(Goodman et al.,2012). Occasionally, pericardial effusions may be loculated and compress only a portion of the heart. This is more common with post-cardiac surgery…

Manipulation in Advertising: Picking up Eggland's Best to Put down Guilt Eggs. White, oval, fragile eggs. So simplistic in design, unassuming in appearance, and essential in a healthy diet. Who knew that Eggland’s Best most recent advertisement (see Figure 1) in Family Fun magazine would make eggs synonymous with manipulation? A few weeks ago, I took my son, Leo, to a routine doctor’s visit with his pediatrician. Like most moms sitting in that physician’s waiting room, I picked up one of…

Hair Removal Procedures: Intense Pulsed Light Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is a fairly new medical procedure that works on the same principal as laser. The main difference between IPL and conventional lasers is that IPL can deliver a wider variety of wavelengths, instead of just one. This results into a more targeted procedure that can easily remove hair from different areas of the body. The majority of IPL system have a set of filters that can be applied to alter the wavelength of the light.…

In order to determine the degree of functional disability, it is largely based on the amputation levels exhibited that will affect the impact on quality of life and the ability to carry out tasks of daily living (Jain, 2008). According to (Radomski & Trombly, 2014), amputation levels on the upper extremity are as below: a. Partial hand Partial hand amputation may vary from loss of one or more digits to a loss of complete fingers or a loss of part of the palm and associated fingers (Blair,…
