Beskrivelse
This book is a must-read for anyone who has had surgery, is going to have surgery, or is deciding whether to have surgery.
John D. Sanidas, M.D., a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, answers all your surgical questions, including:
- What can you expect in the post-operative recovery room?
- Who will communicate with your family about your condition?
- What instruments do surgeons use during open surgery?
- How is anesthesia administered?
The author explains that anyone who enters an operating room is told not to reach over the wound unless necessary. The area is sterile and the room is as clean as it can be, with filtered air being pumped into the room. It is not plain air.
The book also explores topics such as how to become a surgeon, how wounds are cleaned, complications from infections, dermatology, and the future of surgery.
Whether you are a patient, medical student, new doctor, nurse, or a caregiver, this book will give you a better understanding of the practice of medicine and the impact of surgery on patients.
