To incorporate a robot into surgery, that surgeon would have to go back through extensive training to learn how to use these machines. The surgeries then take longer to perform due to the lack of experience of the operator with the machinery, and the cost is much higher than if the perfectly capable doctor were to operate on the patient…

The pain was located behind a scar in the middle of my stomach. The scar was a result of previous heart surgeries I had when I was an infant due to the collapsing of my aorta, the main artery in the heart. During the attacks, I always whined, “my scar hurts”.

Preoperative care is the preparation and management of a patient before surgery. The goal of preoperative care is to reduce the fear associated with the unknown and decrease stress associated with surgery. This includes both physical and psychological preparation. The pre-operative phase begins when the decision to have surgery is made and ends when the patient is transferred to theatre. This is the time when both patients and parents are at their most vulnerable and scared. These fears can…

doctor could decide what he was going to do. He said that I needed to have surgery and I wasn’t surprised. He said that surgery starts in a week. So, the next day I had gone to school with a hard cast over my hand. When I went back to school I was scared that someone might hit my hand while I’m walking to class.
