I highly recommend Dr. Joel Berman to understand the surgery for your home medical reference bookshelf! I am very pleased to be asked to review the second print of this major effort in 2008 and find that, as the title says, it is a comprehensive guide for every family!
One thing I want to point out quickly. Although this book is for surgery; that is, Dr. Berman provides the complete information you need to consider the surgery. I found this book to be very well written and written, and it is easy to become a wonderful holistic medicine. Reference book. For example, if something of yours is bothering your mind, you can use a wide range of indexes to find the different questions you want to see. In addition, Dr. Berman has included a broad vocabulary written in easy-to-understand text because the use of difficult-to-understand medical terms cannot be completely eliminated.
I admit that I am one of those who are afraid to hear "bad news" because I find it difficult to understand and therefore afraid to interact with doctors and potential surgeons. However, from the beginning of the book, Dr. Berman took the time to make the reader feel more comfortable - he wrote some stupid, interesting, and sometimes horrific oiling poems to start each conversation. He then described the exact content and what the patient and family need to know when exploring the surgical options.
The manual is divided into two parts. The second part includes a chapter on everything and everything that can be done [even about what is not feasible]. Dr. Berman moved from his own "general surgery" area, including the gallbladder, appendix and transplant. He then enters the area where he or she usually seeks to go through the body from head to toe [including plastic surgery], describes possible problems, and then what can be done and what will be done through surgery. Each narrative contains a detailed chart of the affected body area, clearly marked for understanding the actual process.
Although the second part will be an increasingly important part of this reference manual, I find that the first part is very rich. Often, professionals, especially experts, are brought to handle specific tasks or operations. Although we, the patients are very grateful, but we do not know what actually happened!
Dr. Berman has solved this problem in the first part! He first introduced the short history of surgery, the education of surgeons, and the majors that were subsequently developed. He talked about us, patients, if we don't think about the details in pain immediately, but if we don't see the patient immediately, then this is very important to us. The book includes questions for discussion with surgeons.
The first part takes us to the surgeon's office, into the operating room and/or outpatient surgery center, and the emergency room. He ensures that we need to talk to our surgeons and consider the second opinion, certificate and qualifications of the individuals involved. Then discuss postoperative care, complications, infections and antibiotic problems.
First explain the potential use of laser or laparoscopy [a method of using only a few small openings into the abdomen] and then review it as an option. The importance of rehabilitation is thoroughly covered. Then discuss more detailed information about the problem area, such as bleeding, diabetes and surgery problems, and wound healing issues, as well as the importance of anesthesia and professionals in the field.
In fact, when I look back at this book, I can't think of anything I want to know, at least not mentioned by Dr. Berman. Moreover, if more information is presented, he also provides references, including his first book, "Integrated Breast Care."
Unfortunately, we often don't consider valuable health care information until it's too late to take the time to read and learn what we want to know. For this reason, I think this is a must-read/family library requirement! Take some time now to prepare for life-threatening problems!
