Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To investigate and characterize the professional stereotypes associated with general medicine and surgery among Brazilian medical residents. METHODS: A randomized sample of residents of the General Medicine and Surgery Residence Programs were interviewed and their perceptions and views of general and surgical doctors were compared. RESULTS: The general practitioner was characterized by the residents in general to be principally a sensitive and concerned doctor with a close relationship with the patient; (45%); calm, tranquil, and balanced (27%); with intellectual skills (25%); meticulous and attentive to details (23%); slow to resolve problems and make decisions (22%); and working more with probabilities and hypotheses (20%). The surgeon was considered to be practical and objective (40%); quickly resolving problems (35%); technical with manual skills (23%); omnipotent, arrogant, and domineering (23%); anxious, stressed, nervous, and temperamental (23%); and more decided, secure, and courageous (20%). Only the residents of general medicine attributed the surgeon with less knowledge of medicine and only the surgeons attributed gender characteristics to their own specialty. CONCLUSION: There was considerable similarity in the description of a typical general practitioner and surgeon among the residents in general, regardless of the specialty they had chosen. It was interesting to observe that these stereotypes persist despite the transformations in the history of medicine, i.e. the first physicians (especially regarding the valorization of knowledge) and the first surgeons, so-called "barber surgeons" in Brazil (associated with less knowledge and the performance of high-risk procedures).

Abstract:
In recent years the United States has undergone what some have termed a malpractice “crisis”. It has affected Canada and other parts of the world to a lesser extent and has been the subject of much debate. Throughout history the idea of what constitutes negligent surgical care and its consequences has not been an immutable concept but rather has fluctuated between seemingly polar extremes. In ancient Mesopotamia, the Hammurabi code describes bountiful rewards for successful surgery contrasted with mutilation or death for failed attempts. In ancient Egypt we see the extremes of strict dogma, where acceptable practice was laid out by ancient priestly documents and those who strayed from their precise format could be met with deportation or beheading, a practice that discouraged developing treatment for those with a poor chance of survival. In stark contrast to these cultures the physician/surgeons of ancient Greece had almost complete impunity. After the monastic orders in Europe were banned from surgical practice in 1130 the uneducated barber surgeons dominated the field. The minority of educated surgeons pointed out many examples of negligence and improper care by this group. Capital punishment and mutilation of negligent surgeons became common once again in the crusader states, as public humiliation was added to the punishment. During the renaissance in Italy, the actions of a regulatory council levied stiff fines for surgeons who infringed on the practice of physicians while seemingly paying very little attention to examples of gross negligence and patient abuse. Finally in the modern era, surgery developed much more effective treatments for many conditions. Paradoxically as soon as a technique became better for a condition, accusations of negligence for treatment of that condition became common.

Abstract:
George Frideric Handel was born in Halle (Saale) in Germany. After initial musical education in Germany and Italy, he came to London as a young man and spent the rest of his life in England. Until recently, little has been written of his early life in either the English or the German literature, and it is not widely known that he was the son of Georg Händel, a barber-surgeon of repute. When his father's name is mentioned, it is usually to claim that he actively discouraged his son's musical education. Georg Händel lived in a turbulent time; he became an eminent surgeon who served as valet and barber to the Courts of Saxony and Brandenburg, as well as a distinguished citizen of Halle. In describing his surgical duties, we show how these differed from those of barbers in England and France at that time. Barbers in Germany were less controlled, freer to practise as they pleased, and Händel himself had important duties in public health and forensic medicine. George Frideric was the first son of the second marriage, born when his father was 63 years of age. We aim also to dispel the notion that Händel's influence on his son's career was as obstructive as has been claimed, but rather that he was a responsible father with his children's interests at heart. This is shown in the success achieved by all his children, most of whom followed their father into medicine, while George Frideric became the most famous of them all, being regarded by posterity as one of the greatest composers.

Abstract:
This study addresses the problem critics have faced in identifying contemporary perceptions of the barber, surgeon and barber-surgeon in early modernity by examining the literature, predominantly the drama, from the period. The name ‘barber-surgeon’ is not given formally to any character in extant early modern plays; only within the dialogue or during stage business is a character labelled the barber-surgeon. Barbers and surgeons are simultaneously separate and doubled-up characters. The differences and cross-pollinations between their practices play out across the literature and tell us not just about their cultural, civic and occupational histories but also about how we interpret patterns in language, onomastics, dramaturgy, materiality, acoustics and semiology. Accordingly, the argument in this study is structured thematically and focuses on the elements of performance, moving from discussions of names to discussions of settings and props, disguises, stage directions and semiotics, and from sound effects and music, to voices and rhetorical turns. In doing so, it questions what it means in early modernity to have a developed literary identity, or be deprived of one. The barber-surgeon is a trope in early modern literature because he has a tangible social impact and an historical meaning derived from his barbery and surgery roots, and consequently a richly allusive idiom which exerted attraction for audiences. But the figure of the barber-surgeon can also be a trope in investigating how representation works. An aesthetic of doubleness, which this study finds to be diversely constructed, prevails in barbers’, surgeons’ and barber-surgeons’ literary conception, and the barber-surgeon in the popular imagination is created from opposing cultural stereotypes. The literature from the period demonstrates why a guild union of barbers and surgeons was never harmonious: they are opposing dramaturgical as well as medical figures. This study has a wide-ranging literary corpus, including early modern play texts, ballads, pamphlets, guild records, dictionaries, inventories, medical treatises and archaeological material, and contributes to the critical endeavours of the medical humanities, cultural materialists, theatre historians and linguists.

Abstract:
The influence of religion and spirituality (R/S) on surgeons dates back to the early history of modern surgery and continues into the 21st century. Research topics include intercessory prayer (IP), social cohesion, coping strategies, the role of chaplains and other clergy or faith leaders, and communal activities such as worship. While evidence for benefits of practices such as IP are inconclusive, patients involved in R/S activities or who hold R/S beliefs appear to have improved coping skills and quality of life (QOL). Although R/S has proven value for patients and surgeons, lack of R/S training is a barrier to surgeon involvement in addressing R/S issues such as operative procedures, treatment plans, organ donation, and end-of-life (EOL) situations. Increased training at the undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate medical levels concerning R/S would provide surgeons and physician colleagues with skills and greater comfort in discussing these issues with patients and families. .

Abstract:
Although surgery’s history is nearly as old as the human species, the practice as we know it today did not exist before the 19th century C.E. Chapter 4 (“Surgery”) transports the reader through art across 40,000 years of surgical history, stretching from trephination performed during the Cro-Magnon era to the miraculous transplant surgeries of today. Concepts covered by the artworks include barber-surgeons, “laudable pus,” carbolic acid-decontamination of operative fields, the ancient origin of general anesthesia, antiseptic surgical practice, the control of puerperal fever, Caesarian section, and surgical subspecialists in the ancient world. These are accompanied by portraits of some of the greatest figures in the pre-modern history of surgery, including Joseph Lister, William T. Morton, Samuel T. Gross, and Ignaz Semmelweis.
