That was I still on my medical college, I remember when a person dies (or suddenly dies), the family is bereaved, often confused, and perhaps angry. One way of helping the family understand what has happened to their loved one is by performing an autopsy. The autopsy has the additional value of increasing medical knowledge, thus benefiting families and humanity.

I’m sure all of you ever get wound, but how about the treatment of surgical wound. I think you should know abut this basic, so if you ever get it someday (I hope not), you already knew how to care its. All wounds go through several stages of healing, and you may be able to see these changes as they progress. There are tree steps : Inflammation : days 1-5 (not same as infection): reddening, swelling, clear non-smelly discharge and slight pain; Formation of scab : days 5 -14 : a protective covering; Strengthening & flattening of scar tissue – day 14 onwards .

The term health insurance is generally used to describe a form of insurance that pays for medical expenses. It is sometimes used more broadly to include insurance covering disability or long-term nursing or custodial care needs. It may be provided through a government-sponsored social insurance program, purchased on a group basis (e.g., by a firm to cover its employees) or purchased by individual consumers. In each case, the covered groups or individuals pay premiums or taxes to help protect themselves from high or unexpected healthcare expenses. Similar benefits paying for medical expenses may also be provided through social welfare programs funded by the government rather than the beneficiaries.

Did you know more than 20.5 million Americans suffer from cataracts. And, the number is expected to balloon to 30.1 million by 2020. Today, those who suffer from cataracts, the leading cause of low vision in Americans, and the inevitable symptoms of presbyopia, have new products available to them. Cataracts are a clouding of the eye’s lens which blocks light needed for sight. New options for intraocular lenses include Crystalens by Eyeonics Inc., ReSTOR from Alcon, and ReZoom from Advanced Medical Optics, and have all been approved by the FDA. The devices work in the same way as the original lens and help to restore the ability of cataract patients to see both near and far.

If you want the most heart-healthy antioxidants, should you grab a dish of blueberries, a cup of tea, or a chocolate bar?
Amazing research shows that the correct answer is a chocolate bar–by a mile! In tests using the “gold standard” for measuring antioxidants–the ORAC test–chocolate actually comes out ahead of the former antioxidant champs: tea, Concord grape juice, and blueberries.
Even so, save chocolate for an occasional healthy treat, says researcher Penny Kris-Etherton, PhD, RD, of Pennsylvania State University in State College. “Chocolate has a price tag–it’s loaded with calories. You’re not helping your heart one bit if you eat too much chocolate and end up gaining weight.”

On the previous post, I already write about gastroesophageal reflux disease. Complaints referable to the upper gastrointestinal tract are a common presentation to the primary care physician. We are fortunate to have a wide variety of drugs available to manage these conditions including antacids, H2-blockers, sucralfate, misoprostol, and omeprazole. In this post I will focus on the most widely prescribed drugs, the H2-blockers.
