Abstract
Patient safety is important not only for patient but also for medical community, and this safety includes the reduction of medical and surgical errors. In the last few years, researchers have started showing great interest in the use of checklists before performing a surgery to reduce surgical errors. Usually, those checklists include the time out process, i.e. a kind of break or pause, before starting any surgical procedure. Those checklists may also include the information of patient, information of site or side, and information of procedure. Before starting any operation, operating staff communicate with ...

Introduction

It is easier to confirm that a crime has been committed than to identify and prove the culprits or the suspects who have committed the crime. The American criminal justice system finds it hard to identify and convict the suspects who have committed serious felonies when the victims and members of the public fail to identify the suspects and testify in court. In such situations, the American criminal justice system has been compelled to depend on the DNA profiling and testimonies provided by the eyewitnesses to identify, prosecute and convict the suspects. Although the criminal justice system depend on the ...

However, the arguments pertaining to allowing abortion and its counterarguments continue to either refute or approve abortion, making the debate continue even up to the present time. With the debates continuing to escalate in the ...

The ending of a fetus, fetal membranes, and placenta from the uterus is termed as abortion. The pregnancy at that time is lost after the procedure is carried out, but abortion on its own does not determine the reason for ending a pregnancy (MedicineNet, 2013). Abortion may also be termed as a deliberate termination of pregnancy that is normally carried out within 28 weeks of conception. Miscarriage may become synonymous to abortion if the abortion is categorized as spontaneous. Unlike the normal procedure of abortion, in spontaneous abortion there is no external interference to end a pregnancy within 20 weeks after conceiving. If a ...

The term “rite of passage” is often referred to stages in one’s life which brings him closer to maturity and development. In the case of children, the point wherein they would have to experience this feeling is when they are in puberty stages. Young boys would often be considered full-fledged men if they managed to brave circumcision as it would enable them to grow taller and leaner. Young girls tend to experience puberty and know they are now on the road to maturity when they experience their first period. However, it is not known to many that in ...

Cloning could be the answer to the pain and suffering of many people around the globe. Human cloning is the asexual reproduction or replication of a human being at any stage of development. It can also be defined as the formation of an identical genetic copy of a human being. Cloning itself is not new as it dates back to the 1970s, where frogs and toads were experimented on. It is principally divided into two types, that is, reproductive cloning and therapeutic cloning. Reproductive cloning is whereby there is a creation of a child, whereas therapeutic cloning is the creation of stem cells ...

Cochlear implants are very instrumental in ear care. These developments are enabled by advances in technology; hence, allowing medics to offer the world of sound, music, and speech to people who would otherwise spend their entire or large part of their lives in soundless cocoons.

Introduction to Abortion

Abortion is the termination of pregnancy. There are two types of abortions; miscarriage and therapeutic abortion. In miscarriage, the embryo or fetus is instantaneously removed from the uterus of the woman. On the other hand, in therapeutic abortion, the embryo is expelled or removed from the uterus of the woman with the help of some medical procedure. In return, therapeutic abortion is of two types; surgical abortion and medical abortion. Surgical abortion is also known as manual vacuum aspiration. In this procedure, cervix (opening to the uterus) is dilated, and the embryo or fetus and placental tissues are removed ...

Lobotomy defines a neurosurgical process, which is a psychosurgery also named leucotomy. This procedure involves cutting of the connections to and from the prefrontal cortex and the anterior part of the brain in the frontal lobes. This idea was pioneered by a Portuguese neurologist named Antonio Egas Moniz in 1935. He performed leucotomy, a brain operation, in a Lisbon hospital. This was the first leucotomy in treating mental illness. He drilled holes in the skull of the patient so as to gain entrance to the brain. The procedure became popular in treatment of serious mental illness including severe depression and schizophrenia. Additionally, the procedure ...

Treatments for an Enlarged Prostate

An enlarged prostate or Benign-Prostate-Hyperplasia (BPH) is a condition caused by a non-cancerous growth of the prostate such that this growth, blocks the passage of urine via the urethra. The pressure exerted by the large prostate over the urethra results for the need of increased pressure than normal for the bladder in order to expel urine through the narrow urethra. Over some time, the bladder muscles become stronger and more sensitive such that contractions are occur at a small volume of urine, which leads to frequent urination. After some time, the bladder muscles can no longer bare the pressure caused by the ...
