On a story assignment in France for the New York Times Magazine, Martha Weinman Lear has just escaped tourist-infested Cannes for a quiet pension in the hills behind the Riviera when she gets the call from New York. Her husband has suffered a massive heart attack and is in the hospital. Harold Lear, a fifty-three-year-old urologist and leader in the field of human sexuality research, suddenly finds himself in the helpless role of the patient.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This New York Times–bestselling author’s memoir of her own heart attack is “a refresher course in handling life’s meanest challenges with grace” (Library Journal). It begins late one afternoon in her kitchen. There is no collapse, no massive pain. Just a slight fluttering sensation in her chest, then chills, and finally, nausea. Probably nothing to worry about, the doctor assures her on the phone. It doesn’t sound like a heart attack. But it is. Heart attacks in women can look and feel dramatically different than they do in men, which is why they often go undiagnosed. But heart disease is the number-one killer of American women—greater than all forms of cancer combined. When the doctor examines Lear the day after her episode, the verdict is shocking. So begins an account, filled with grace, humor, and ferocity, of her hard-won return to good health, beset by mysterious postsurgical complications and haunted by memories of her late husband when she finds herself in the same coronary unit in which she lost him all those years ago.

Book Synopsis Heart Sounds by : Christopher Hanifin
Download or read book Heart Sounds written by Christopher Hanifin and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2010-06-30 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you mystified by murmurs? Puzzled by pitch? Stymied by splitting? If so, this is the book for you. Cardiac auscultation can be a frustrating skill to learn, and many physical examination texts address cardiac auscultation in a cursory fashion. The wide variety of heart sounds available on CD and the internet may serve more to confuse than to clarify. The philosophy of this book is that understanding is a much more powerful tool than memorization in arriving at a differential diagnosis. This book takes the form of a programmed text. Each page presents a simple concept or two related to anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology or even physics. Applying this knowledge - knowledge you already possess - provides a solid foundation for arriving at a diagnosis in many cases.

Book Synopsis The Art and Science of Cardiac Physical Examination by : Narasimhan Ranganathan
Download or read book The Art and Science of Cardiac Physical Examination written by Narasimhan Ranganathan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-11-10 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been our experience that instruction in physical examination of the heart in medical schools has been deteriorating since the advent of such modern diagnostic tools as two-dimensional echocardiography and nuclear imaging. At best, the teaching has been sketchy and too superficial for the student to appreciate the pathophysiological correlates. Both invasive and the noninvasive modern technologies have contributed substantially to our knowledge and understanding of cardiac physical signs and their pathophysiological correlates. However, both students and teachers alike appear to be mesmerized by technological advances to the neglect of the age-old art, as well as the substantial body of science, of cardiac physical examination. It is also sad to see reputed journals give low priority to articles related to the clinical examination. Our experience is substantiated by a nationwide survey of internal medicine and cardiology training programs, which concluded that the teaching and practice of cardiac auscultation received low emphasis, and perhaps other bedside diagnostic skills as well (1). The state of the problem is well reflected in the concerns expressed in previous publications (2–4), including the 2001 editorial in the American Journal of Medicine (Vol. 110, pp. 233–235), entitled “Cardiac auscultation and teaching rounds: how can cardiac auscultation be resuscitated?”, as well as in the rebuttal, “Selections from current literature. Horton hears a Who but no murmurs—does it matter?” (5).

Book Synopsis Learning Cardiac Auscultation by : Allen J. Taylor
Download or read book Learning Cardiac Auscultation written by Allen J. Taylor and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book contains a series of core auscultation “lessons”. All are case based and describe auscultation as it relates to a patient and in terms of the gold standard for interpretation of heart sounds. Auscultation is the term for listening to the internal sounds of the body, usually using a stethoscope. It is performed for the purposes of examining the circulatory system and respiratory system (heart sounds and breath sounds). As a topic it is one of the oldest in cardiology but its utility should never be underestimated. In this era of hugely expensive imaging tests, auscultation is a cornerstone of efficient diagnosis and therefore needs a fresh look. The core content of this book describes the search for diagnostic clues within patients’ heart sounds and as such this book provides superb practical advice in the form of a series of clinical pearls reflecting what accurate diagnosis with auscultation can mean to patient prognosis and outcome. This often subtle but ultimately simple subject often produces complex results and these must be considered in light of modern next-level diagnostic methods and patient management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry is the beginning of all feeling. It celebrates you, cries for you, needs, pleads, bleeds, and wants for you. Poetry explains for you, loves for you, and it wishes and hopes for you. It can move mountains or lock doors. Poetry is fascination, liberation, annihilation, consolation, elation, aggravation, jubilation, communication, and humiliation. It can be the dance that never ends. It feels for you out loud. Poetry is you exclamation point! Poetry can be the beginning or the ending, and everything in between. Cynthia Forcey
