The Role Of Amputation In The Killer Angeles

It would certainly be standard care to watch extremities for lack of circulation yet this was not done. When cutting the cast not only did the Dr. cut him the first time but then to continue without any precautions and cut the other side too is certainly misconduct. While reading other court documents in this case it was also stated that because of the swelling of the leg, the cast should not have been put on until some of the swelling went down. Dr. Alexander didn't take this in to account either. Clearly an expertise should have been called in for this

During the war, many patients died from blood loss while waiting for treatment or during surgery. This

By nightfall of that day, 10,000 victims had invaded the Red Cross hospital and Dr. Sasaki was totally worn out. He had lost his glasses in the explosion and had taken a pair from a wounded nurse. Although these were not his prescription, he could see well enough to do some bandaging. He tried to bandage the ones that he thought had a chance of survival. He felt that he could not afford to spend time on those that he was sure would die despite his efforts.

One of the visible long term effects of the war on Maisie as well as on the other people that were directly connected to the war would be the physical scar.

How were injured soldiers treated during the circus war? How does our medical treatments now compare to how they were treated before? Did the way injured soldiers were treated have to do with the cause of their death? Wounds were treated very differently to how they’re treated now and it always makes people wonder how people still survived and were able to live longer. It all reflects on technology, transportation, antiseptic practices, and surgical techniques. Throughout war and history more soldiers died from diseases than they did from injuries and often the medical treatments they would get for their injuries wouldn’t make them better but worse and it was what caused more deaths.

The Civil War was fought with much carnage, and was one of America’s most ‘uncivilized’, wars with a soldier’s chance of survival about twenty-five per cent. While many were killed by other soldiers, usually through bullets, a large portion died as a result of disease such as: dysentery, mumps, pneumonia, typhoid fever, measles, and tuberculosis, diseases that are curable today. These diseases were spread through the horribly sanitized camps found on both sides of the war: Confederate and Union. And while many died from disease, some died from other soldiers’ bullets; these deaths may have been prevented if the technology, or overall techniques used by surgeons, during this time period were more up-to-date, as amputations were the main procedure

They may have been beaten but they really were not broken. Some lived on. There is little known about this

One of the reasons the doctors were not ethical is they didn't tell him all of the risks and he didn't really understand what was going to happen after the operation. ''Miss Kinnian says maybe they can make me smart.''(Flowers for Algernon progress report 1 March 5 1965) ''Has the patient been informed of benefits and risks, understood

I. Imagine yourself or a loved one just diagnosed with a terminal debilitating illness. You are given at best six months to live. During those six months your prognosis will turn from bad to worse. You know you will eventually be in an uncontrollable amount of persistent pain. You will eventually lose the ability to feed, dress, or bathe and toilet yourself. Your once very active life will become one

During the strike, two other men were also killed. By the end of the strike, the gunfire had injured twenty-three people, wounded eight unarmed miners, four bystanders and one RCMP officer.

5. Angels of mercy medical professionals will kill their patients for financial gain, or just because they can, or they feel like they are helping their patients by getting rid of the pain or sickness.

Some soldiers were injured slightly while others were injured drastically and could no longer perform in society correctly. 150,000 Vietnam veterans came back either severely injured or amputated, without the ability to work, and be normal people. They came back with broken bones, blown off limbs, and other serious injuries that would affect them for the rest of their lives. Solders that were saved by search and rescue missions were scared for the rest of their lives from the dramatic war. They were saved, but they were not whole.

They really wouldn't have anybody to question them. They are trusted in the community. Being a doctor would take the suspicion away from you. They have a certain boldness because they maintain, restore, and treat illness and injuries. Already spending so much time studying and training builds confidence because theres a good chance you won't mess up and you can get away with it. Doctors are almost perfectionist because you have to be precise with everything you do when it comes to dealing with patients. Holmes said that Dr.Gimesby, "put it through this ventilator at the hour that he thought best, with the certainty that it would crawl down the rope and land on the bed." This is assuring Dr.Gimbesy's plan would be perfect. Also made it ten times easier to kill her without anybody

As a result, physicians and nurses alike, may have failed to treat the whole person that was ill. They very likely only treated part of a disease or illness.

In the first two weeks of a battle, the British with other allies managed to shoot 4,283,550 shells at the German defenses and 800,000 of them got shell shock (Simkin). The trenches never protected soldiers from shell shock. Soldiers who exposed themselves to continuous amount of shellfire produced a number of symptoms. These symptoms included tiredness, irritability, and lack of concentration, headaches, and
