A very interesting video showing how white blood cells (Neutrophil) are chasing bacteria (Diplococci). It also shows how the white blood cell engulf the bacteria. This is a real video.

This video is really sad. You can literally watch this man dying. He was shot in the chest and rushed to the emergency room. His heart has stopped beating or has arrested. As a last resort, surgeons did an extreme procedure called an open thoracotomy which is that crazy tool you see there that basically splits the ribs open and allows easy open access to the heart. They did this so they could give him a cardiac massage. A cardiac massage is when surgeons are manually trying to pump the heart after it has stopped working on its own (cardiac arrest). Unfortunately he lost so much blood from his gun shot wound and he was pronounced dead. There are cases of patients surviving after having this kind of invasive resuscitation but it is rare.

The major elements of the cardiac exam include observation, palpation and, most importantly, auscultation (percussion is omitted). As with all other areas of the physical exam, establishing adequate exposure and a quiet environment are critical. Initially, the patient should rest supine with the upper body elevated 30 to 45 degrees. Most exam tables have an adjustable top. If not, use 2 or 3 pillows. Remember that although assessment of pulse and blood pressure are discussed in the vital signs section they are actually important elements of the cardiac exam.

The brain is that part of the CNS contained within the cranial cavity (figure 13.1). It is the control center for many of the body's functions. The brain is much like a complex central computer but with additional functions that no computer can as yet match. Indeed, one goal in computer technology is to make computers that can function more like the human brain. The brain consists of the brainstem, the cerebellum, the diencephalon, and the cerebrum (table 13.1). The brainstem includes the medulla oblongata, pons, midbrain, and reticular formation. The structure of the brain is described in this chapter. Its functions are primarily discussed in chapter 14. Twelve pairs of cranial nerves, which are part of the PNS, arise directly from the brain. Two pairs arise from the cerebrum, nine pairs arise from the brainstem, and one pair arises from the spinal cord.

Symptoms include headache, facial pain, runny nose, and nasal congestion. Acute sinusitis usually doesn't require any treatment beyond symptomatic relief with pain medications, nasal decongestants, and nasal saline rinses. Chronic sinusitis may require antibiotics.

How are seizures and epilepsy treated? What should I do if someone has a seizure? When seizure medications don't work, what else can be tried? These are just a few of the questions that you'll find answered here. Some treatment goals are common to everyone. Everyone should know what to do when a person is having a seizure. All people with seizures and their families should know that the real goal of treating epilepsy is to stop seizures or control them as best as possible. But you are more than just a seizure and how epilepsy affects you and your family may be different from someone else. Don't forget the most important goal of the Epilepsy Foundation - helping people with seizures and their families lead full and unrestricted lives according to their own wishes. Patient and doctor discussing treatment options"No seizures, no side effects" is the motto for epilepsy treatment. Not every person will reach that goal right now, but research and getting the "right care at the right time" can help more people achieve it each year. You may learn things here that can help you right away or later on. While seizure medicines are the mainstay of epilepsy treatment, there are other approaches to think about too. We hope these sections will help you learn about different treatments and get the help you need. Learn about the basics of Treatment 101 to help you get started. Look at Receiving Quality Care to see what to expect when you have just been diagnosed or after you have already started treatment. Then learn about specific treatments, what to do if seizures don't stop, and how to develop your health care team. You'll also find tools to help you manage your epilepsy or learn about research studies in other sections, so don't stop here!
