Medical Minute:HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN ALONE

Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital.

Medical Minute: Autism

Autism is a disorder of the nerves in the brain that interferes with the signals sent from the brain to other parts of the body. The disorder is marked by poor communication skills and lack of social interaction. Doctors aren’t sure what causes autism. Signs of autism begin in babies before they are 12 months old. Most children are diagnosed with autism by age 2 or 3. That’s the age when parents become aware that their toddlers’ communications skills aren’t keeping pace with other toddlers their age.

Other behavioral signs include walking on their tiptoes (toe walking), flapping their arms, sitting and spinning, rolling their heads and/or rocking back and forth. Some autistic children show normal cognitive growth and development from birth until the age of 3 or 4 when the...

Trafficking in Persons: Should medical practitioners be involved in practical solutions?

In the last 20 years, human trafficking has become a global problem of unforeseen proportions. Human trafficking affects every country in the world, regardless of socioeconomic status, history, or political structure and most countries are a source, transit, and destination for victims of human trafficking. In fact, the profits from human trafficking are immense and the United Nations Office of Drugs and Crime places human trafficking as the fastest growing and second most profitable form of transnational crime (Chong & Clark, 2014). Due to the complex nature of trafficking in person, data available on the number of people trafficked are indiscriminate. Conservative estimates suggest that at least 2.5 million women, children, and men are lured or forced across international borders (transnational human trafficking) every year and a significant amount are trafficked within borders (internal human trafficking)and forced to work against their will often in unsafe deplorable conditions...
