20 Things You Can Expect After Brain Surgery | The Everywhereist - 0 views

  •  
    In this article, the main point is to go over the twenty things to expect after undergoing brain surgery, such as the lack of bowel movements, poor attention span, and the urge to eat everything in site! The article delves deeper into these side effects of brain surgery by explaining what they'll do to you, and how to avoid them to the fullest extent possible. Some of the things they list are medically important, like safety measures for the scalp or hallucinations that may occur, but some of the things listed are worth knowing, but silly. For example, "Everything in your life will make sense". I would think that things make the most sense when you're not "high" off of pain killers, but people have different views on different things. If asked about the article and what the idea behind it is, I would simply tell the questioner that this article is written to prepare individuals for the shock, that is brain surgery. The article will help prepare the soon to be brain surgery recipients for what they are about to undertake.

A Doctor Unlocks Mysteries Of The Brain By Talking And Watching - 0 views

  •  
    Summary: The belief by many medical professionals is that better understanding of neuroscience will be achieved through investment in technology that focuses on such. But Dr. Allan Ropper believes that learning from talking, feeling, and watching is just as important as fancy scans and MRI's. As he talks about in his interview, administering bedside tests can, and will give you results that would have never been retrieved by using a machine. For example, Dr. Allan Ropper conducted an experimental test on a woman who was having muscle troubles, and by using a blood pressure pump, he discovered that she has a disease that weakens muscles with repeated use. The other doctors believed earlier that it was a stroke that made her feel weak, but Dr. Ropper proved them wrong. In Ropper's new book "Reaching Down the Rabbit Hole", he delves deeper into why neuroscience should use bedside tests more often, because in times like the one described, it's the only way to get the true answer.

    This website is very good for providing a basic overview of the inoculations needed before traveling to other countries. It has countries other than Nepal, and contains basic vaccines, preventive measures, medical supplies and over-the-counter medications that are recommended by the government for travel to Nepal.

    This is a great informational site that I have used to find information for projects particularly in Human Development. It has a lot of information on almost any medical issue that you could think of. It is written by certified doctors so you can be sure that the information is accurate. It is a wonderful, easy to use site, with a lot of good information.

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) - Antidepressant - 0 views

  •  
    This was such a great video. It showed how neurotransmitters work and how they are if someone has depression, it then showed how serotonin should affect the cells if it works correctly. Short video, only a minute and 25 seconds but it had a lot of great information and was well explained.

    The author opened up a whole new perspective on my outlook on sports medicine, and the science. I had no idea there were so many diffrent types of jobs to be offered around the area of sports medicine, aside from athletic training. I would highly recommend this resource to any one looking for more careers involving sports, or medical science.
