Premature babies If an infant is born before the 37th week of pregnancy, he is considered as a premature baby. The advances in medicine and science made it more possible to deliver a healthy baby earlier and save their lives at the same time. These advances in science and medicine include alternative feeding methods, preventive strategies that will keep babies longer in utero, advanced incubators, and better understanding about the complications that will affect the premature babies. What are…

when there is a back flow into the right atrium; this is a common cause that results in pulmonary hypertension. Ventricular septal defect is a congenital abnormality where there is a hole in the septum allowing blow flow from the left ventricle into the right ventricle. Diastolic murmurs suggestive of heart disease of an ineffectual aortic valve. Aortic regurgitation happens when the aortic valve leaflets do not close fully; if an S3 or S4 is noted, consider sever regurgitation. Mitral stenosis…

16.39 percent in the year 2008,2009 and 2010. Ischemic cardiomyopathy is one type of cardiomyopathy. According to Cleveland Clinic,” In Ischemic CM, the heart's ability to pump blood is decreased because the heart's main pumping chamber, the left ventricle, is enlarged, dilated and weak.” [1] Ischemic cardiomyopathy can develop quickly. There are two stages for ischemic cardiomyopathy. This essay will explain and describe the process of the two stages in ischemic cardiomyopathy. The first…

Every day more Doctors are turning to the LVAD ( Left Ventricular Assist Device) as an alternative to a heart transplant. Many people with heart failure are not good candidates for heart transplants and because there are not enough donated hearts, the list has to be narrowed down very carefully to receive a donor heart. The patient may not be considered a good candidate for a heart transplant if they smoke or have an alcohol abuse problem, have an infection, cancer, bad diabetes, or if all…

means a baby is born with the condition. This is often due to problems like Spina Bifida (abnormal development of the spinal cord) or Aquiductal Stenosis (The narrowing of a small passageway, the 'Aqueduct of Silvius,' that’s connects two major ventricles in the brain." He had to be hand fed every day. The article, Hydrocephalus also says, "If it's not treated, Hydrocephalus can lead to brain damage, a loss in mental and physical abilities, and even death." I had no idea what Hydrocephalus was,…

Schizophrenia is not a common disorder, especially since it is only seen in about 1% of the world's population which accounts for about 3.5 million people. This disorder, otherwise, can be very extreme. People with schizophrenia have a decreased activity in the prefrontal cortex which is located in the frontal lobe, and an increased activity in the basal ganglia. Increasing the activity in the basal ganglia increases the amount of neurotransmitters of dopamine are released. The boost of…

Abstract Background: Hydrocephalus is an abnormal CSF collection in brain cavities, within the cerebral ventricles caused by a blockage in the drainage or insufficient absorption of the fluid [1]. It is categorized either congenital or acquired [1]. Hydrocephalus can be diagnosed by detailed history, physical examination and radiological examination [1]. MRI is considered the method of choice because It allows us to evaluate various parts of the brain and certain associated conditions that may…

Firstly the biophysical strengths that came from the application of the continuous method to my training program are as followed. The most obvious strength that came from this method of training is the enhancement of my aerobic energy system. Improving my aerobic system happened from the direct interrelationship it has from my physiological adaptations. During continuous training oxygen needs to supplied to muscles to avoid the build up of Lactic acid that would happen without the presence of…

is expected during the patient’s workup? A. Abnormal EMG studies. B. MRI showing multiple T1 “hypodense areas” C. MRI showing no abnormalities. D. Normal opening pressure during lumbar puncture. E. Widening of lateral and third ventricle on MRI. Answer…
