Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Judith’s Story The story begins in the University of Wisconsin Hospital Emergency Room on a stormy November evening as doctors and nurses struggle to save Judith Von Trier’s life. Twenty minutes earlier Judith had crashed across the center line into oncoming headlights. Critically injured, under the brilliant operating lamp, Judith lifts and floats near the ceiling of the trauma room, looking down at herself in the scene below. Defibrillator paddles slapped in place jolt her like a blast of lightning sending her into an oppressive black void. In that moment, she realizes she is in "The Tunnel" looking to the far-off white light at the end of it. A small object begins to materialize out of the light and draws closer. Moments later, a newborn infant girl drops into her arms. Judith is struck with immediate understanding that she holds her future life, her next incarnation in her arms and she knows what she must do to survive. First, she must travel back forty-seven years to watch her life relived. It is April of 1954 again. Judith views her own birth through the eyes of a newborn. Her life revealed before her just as it happened; a happy early childhood, tragic losses, first love and heartbreak. She is driven to avoid any future pain and takes harsh control of her life and everyone in it until she reaches the moment of the crash again. "Baby’s" Story Then, more frightening, Judith must see into her possible future life as “Baby” should she die. Judith, wraithlike, is compelled to watch as surreal scenes unfold before her. For the second time in the span of one hour of her life, she sees the moment of her own birth. Judith must wait until Baby’s story is finished, knowing all this will happen if she dies, and the terrifying white light tries to claim her. She must stand by helplessly while trying to find her one chance to survive.

Book Synopsis A National Trauma Care System by : National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
Download or read book A National Trauma Care System written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2016-09-12 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in trauma care have accelerated over the past decade, spurred by the significant burden of injury from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Between 2005 and 2013, the case fatality rate for United States service members injured in Afghanistan decreased by nearly 50 percent, despite an increase in the severity of injury among U.S. troops during the same period of time. But as the war in Afghanistan ends, knowledge and advances in trauma care developed by the Department of Defense (DoD) over the past decade from experiences in Afghanistan and Iraq may be lost. This would have implications for the quality of trauma care both within the DoD and in the civilian setting, where adoption of military advances in trauma care has become increasingly common and necessary to improve the response to multiple civilian casualty events. Intentional steps to codify and harvest the lessons learned within the military's trauma system are needed to ensure a ready military medical force for future combat and to prevent death from survivable injuries in both military and civilian systems. This will require partnership across military and civilian sectors and a sustained commitment from trauma system leaders at all levels to assure that the necessary knowledge and tools are not lost. A National Trauma Care System defines the components of a learning health system necessary to enable continued improvement in trauma care in both the civilian and the military sectors. This report provides recommendations to ensure that lessons learned over the past decade from the military's experiences in Afghanistan and Iraq are sustained and built upon for future combat operations and translated into the U.S. civilian system.

As the director of the new State Department Crisis Reaction Unit, Judd Ryker gets a chance to prove that his theory of the Golden Hour actually works, when there’s a coup in Mali. But in the real world, those hours include things he’s never even imagined. As Ryker races from Washington to Europe and across the Sahara Desert, he finds that personalities, loyalties—everything he thought he knew—begin to shift beneath his feet, and that friends and enemies come in many forms.

Download or read book Trauma: The Invisible Epidemic written by Paul Conti, MD and published by Sounds True. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Journey Toward Understanding, Active Treatment, and Societal Prevention of Trauma Imagine, if you will, a disease—one that has only subtle outward symptoms but can hijack your entire body without notice, one that transfers easily between parent and child, one that can last a lifetime if untreated. According to Dr. Paul Conti, this is exactly how society should conceptualize trauma: as an out-of-control epidemic with a potentially fatal prognosis. In Trauma: The Invisible Epidemic, Dr. Conti examines the most recent research, clinical best practices, and dozens of real-life stories to present a deeper and more urgent view of trauma. Not only does Dr. Conti explain how trauma affects the body and mind, he also demonstrates that trauma is transmissible among close family and friends, as well as across generations and within vast demographic groups. With all this in mind, Trauma: The Invisible Epidemic proposes a course of treatment for the seemingly untreatable. Here, Dr. Conti traces a step-by-step series of concrete changes that we can make both as individuals and as a society to alleviate trauma’s effects and prevent further traumatization in the future. You will discover: The different post-trauma syndromes, how they are classified, and their common symptomsAn examination of how for-profit health care systems can inhibit diagnosis and treatment of traumaHow social crises and political turmoil encourage the spread of group traumaMethods for confronting and managing your fears as they arise in the momentHow trauma disrupts mental processes such as memory, emotional regulation, and logical decision-makingThe argument for a renewed humanist social commitment to mental health and wellness It’s only when we understand how a disease spreads and is sustained that we are able to create its ultimate cure. With Trauma: The Invisible Epidemic, Dr. Conti reveals that what we once considered a lifelong, unbeatable mental illness is both treatable and preventable.
