Abstract:

This chapter defines term and preterm delivery and explores the ethical concerns in delivery at the threshold viability. It examines the medical and ethical issues associated with elective delivery prior to 39 weeks gestation, do-not-resuscitate orders in the delivery room, and maternal illness and illicit behavior that jeopardize the fetus before birth. The beneficence-based moral obligations of practitioners working in the fields of obstetrics, neonatology and pediatrics are discussed, as well as the beneficence-based moral obligations of pregnant women. Additionally the knotty ethical problems of DNR decisions in the delivery room and the equally difficult decision-making that needs to take place in the event that the mother is declared brain dead are both covered in the chapter.

Abstract:

Stroke is the leading cause of disability in the United States, and in terms of mortality is second only to ischemic heart disease worldwide. Medical management for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) was limited to supportive care until 1995, when the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) trial demonstrated improved outcomes with systemic thrombolysis for AIS. Since December 2014, four major articles have been published in support of endovascular intervention for AIS, making this a central focus of this chapter. Other related topics for this chapter include the timing of elective surgery following stroke, how to assess perioperative risk for patients having a history of remote stroke, and implications for postoperative morbidity and mortality associated with perioperative stroke in noncardiac surgery.

Abstract:

Although the primary aim of management in chronic kidney disease (CKD) is to prevent progression to stage 5 CKD, for many patients renal replacement therapy (RRT) is inevitable. Planning for the initiation of dialysis is aimed at ensuring that it takes place in a supported environment in which adverse events will be minimized, that the modality chosen is appropriate for the individual circumstances, and the patient has full knowledge of what RRT entails. Beginning dialysis inevitably involves medical, psychological, family, and social issues, and preparation for RRT is optimally managed by a team with appropriate expertise in these areas. Multidisciplinary education programmes that inform patients and their families about their disease and the treatment options are likely to result in patients starting dialysis in a planned and elective manner.

Abstract:

The International Air Transport Association recognizes that “the airline is responsible for carrying its passengers safely and efficiently to the destination,” yet “the airline has no real means of ensuring that all passengers are fit to begin their journey.”1 There exists an extensive body of work, including textbooks and guidelines,2–4 to support prehospital in-flight care. These references deal with the challenges of emergent and elective aeromedical transport and repatriation, as would be confronted by a flight physician or flight nurse. This chapter, on the other hand, aims to support the anesthesia practitioner with a clinic or hospital-based practice, highlighting important factors to consider should he or she be called on to provide medical care and advice incidentally while on an aircraft as a passenger.

Abstract:

Chapter 1 introduces the Transylvanian and Polish-Lithuanian stories chronologically. The Transylvanian part gives an overview of Hungary’s medieval institutions and Transylvania’s separation from the rest of Hungary after 1526, and examines in more detail the period preceding the election of Stephen Báthory as ruler of Transylvania in 1571. The Polish-Lithuanian narrative introduces elective monarchy under the Jagiellons (1385–1572) and then examines the first interregnum (1572–3), which resulted in the election of Henry Valois. The second interregnum (1574–6) is presented in more detail, because it brought together Transylvania and Poland-Lithuania in the person of Stephen Báthory and also because it was not inevitable: Henry’s abandonment of the throne in 1574 put the estates in the delicate position of having to withdraw their allegiance to him and organize a new election, a difficult decision they hesitated to make. The conclusions explore the connection between liberty and security during interregna.

Abstract:

Medical school is full of unfamiliar and often frightening experiences for students. In the first year, a student must move away from home, balance personal finances, assimilate large volumes of information, learn practical skills, pass high-stakes exams, and face a range of unique experiences. The Oxford Handbook for Medical School provides an essential, practical guide for all students, from receiving an offer and preparing for medical school, to starting as a student, preclinical years and exams, and intercalated degrees through to the clinical years, including succeeding on the wards and in clinic, right up to final exams and assessments, making career decisions, electives, and planning for the future. The handbook serves as a survival guide and an aid to navigating the range of opportunities medical school offers, as well as fully preparing students for their future career.

Abstract:

The notion that the body can be changed at will in order to meet the desires and designs of its ‘owner’ is one that has captured the popular imagination and underpins contemporary medical practices such as cosmetic surgery and gender reassignment. In fact, describing the body as ‘malleable’ or ‘plastic’ has entered common parlance and dictates common-sense ideas of how we understand the human body in late-capitalist consumer societies in the wake of commercial biotechnologies that work to modify the body aesthetically and otherwise. If we are not satisfied with some aspect of our physicality – in terms of health, function or aesthetics – we can engage with a whole variety of self-care body practices – fashion, diet, exercise, cosmetics, medicine, surgery, laser – in order to ‘correct’, reshape or restyle the body. In addition, as technology has advanced and elective cosmetic surgery has unapologetically entered the mainstream, the notion of the malleable body has become intrinsically linked to the practices and discourses of biomedicine and, furthermore, has become a significant means to assert and affirm identity.

Abstract:

During election campaigns, the three most important sets of actors are voters, political parties and candidates, and the media. The purpose of this chapter is thus to describe and analyze Swedish election campaigns with a focus on four interrelated aspects: how voters learn about politics and the issues at stake during election campaigns; how the news media cover election campaigns; how the parties plan and run their election campaigns; and the importance of election campaigns in terms of campaign effects. Among other things, the analysis shows that the mass media are highly important for an understanding of Swedish election campaigns that the parties’ campaigning can be considered semi-professionalized, and that election campaigns have become more important as electoral volatility has increased. Overall, the analysis also suggests that Swedish election campaigns work quite well in terms of mobilizing voters politically.

Full text

Abstract:

Vascular surgical patients are at higher risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality than other surgical patients, and perioperative care remains challenging. However, vascular surgical practice is changing, with the expanding use of endovascular techniques to treat patients with vascular disease, improvements in medical therapy, and the evolution of evidence-based approaches to preoperative assessment. Preoperative assessment should concentrate on identifying and optimizing potentially correctable medical conditions, in particular cardiovascular disease. Successful outcomes depend on good anaesthetic techniques with emphasis on meticulous attention to detail and maintaining cardiovascular function and stability. Good communication with surgical and radiological colleagues is also vital. Anaesthesia for major vascular surgery also requires expertise in managing major haemorrhage, the use of invasive monitoring and cardioactive drugs, and regional anaesthesia. Knowledge and skills in the use of specific techniques for monitoring and protection against organ dysfunction are required. Endovascular surgery may be performed in dedicated operating suites or within the radiology department so the anaesthetist needs to be aware of considerations for anaesthesia in an isolated environment. This chapter details the management of patients presenting for the commonest major vascular procedures. All aspects of perioperative care for patients with abdominal and thoracic aortic aneurysms, occlusive aortic and peripheral vascular disease, and carotid stenosis are discussed. Anaesthesia for open surgery, endovascular and hybrid procedures, and elective and emergency procedures are included. The benefits of regional and general anaesthetic techniques are considered, where appropriate. The chapter also incorporates the anaesthetic management for less common procedures to treat carotid body tumours, thoracic outlet syndrome, and for thoracoscopic sympathectomy.

Abstract:

This introductory chapter provides a short history of medical humanities and continues on to give an overview of the limits of medical practice, evidence-based medicine (EBM), successes and failures, curricula, and the current state of medical humanities. The medical and health humanities have become a widespread discipline, with journals, institutes, and associations worldwide. Throughout undergraduate medical education, new courses, electives, programs, and research are proliferating. Yet there is very little officially documented about relevance and efficacy in postgraduate medical education. The chapters that follow provide both a rigorous argument for using the arts and humanities in postgraduate medical education and a practical “how-to” that will guide readers in developing arts and humanities initiatives in their own program or medical school. Each chapter provides ideas, hands-on lesson plans, and resources to pave the way forward.

Abstract:

New media have been playing an increasingly central role in American elections since they first appeared in 1992. While television remains the main source of election information for a majority of voters, digital communication platforms have become prominent. New media have triggered changes in the campaign strategies of political parties, candidates, and political organizations; reshaped election media coverage; and influenced voter engagement. This chapter examines the stages in the development of new media in elections from the use of rudimentary websites to the rise sophisticated social media. It discusses the ways in which new media differ from traditional media in terms of their form, function, and content; identifies the audiences for new election media; and examines the effects on voter interest, knowledge, engagement, and turnout. Going forward, scholars need to employ creative research methodologies to catalogue and analyze new campaign media as they emerge and develop.

Abstract:

This chapter analyzes the quality of election coverage by the traditional news media. It describes a hierarchical model of influences that is expected to shape the fairness of election coverage. These operate at three levels: the political and social structure, the media market, and the journalistic culture. The chapter shows that the fairness of election coverage is lower when the content of information is distorted by pressures from exogenous actors such as politicians and pressure groups, when the media market faces a hypercommercialization, and when journalists see their role redefined toward infotainment journalism that creates the conditions for a strong shift toward soft news. On the other hand, the quality of elections coverage by traditional news media is higher when media outlets are dispersed across multiple and competitive institutions, which promotes inclusiveness and sets up safeguards against the emergence of media oligopolies.
