Findlay, J. Max. "Neurosurgery at the Toronto General Hospital, 1924 - 1990: Part 1." Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques 21, no. 2 (May 1994): 146–58. http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/s031716710004909x.

Abstract:

The specialty of neurological surgery in this country began when Kenneth G. McKenzie was appointed to the Toronto General Hospital surgical staff in 1924, Canada's first dedicated neurosurgeon. In the years and decades that followed McKenzie and his successors established the Toronto General Hospital as one of the leading clinical and teaching neurosurgical units in the world. It was not without some sadness, therefore, that in 1990 neurosurgery left the walls of the Toronto General Hospital, the service transferred to join with the neurosurgical division of a sister hospital, the Toronto Western, during a merger which created the new, two-site, Toronto Hospital. The following story is of the men and women at the Toronto General Hospital who provided, advanced, and taught neurosurgical care. Many persons, among them orderlies, nurses and physicians, will not receive the mention they deserve in the pages that follow, but are no less remembered.

Abstract:

In Part 1 of this history of neurology in Toronto, the advent of neurology as a specialty in 1892 and its progress over the next 20 years was described (Can J Neurol Sci 1995; 22: 322–332). Donald Campbell Meyers, the first neurologist received his training from “founders” in Paris, Vienna and London and returned to Toronto to establish his own private neurological hospital and a special unit – “the Nervous Wards” – in the Toronto General, the major teaching hospital. These pioneering initiatives clashed with an alienist establishment, itself internally in conflict, and the “Nervous Wards” were lost in the ensuing competition for medical resources.

Abstract:

Strategic planning is becoming to hospitals what business case analysis is to private corporations. In fact, this type of planning is becoming essential for the professional management of Ontario hospitals. The participative strategic planning process at Toronto East General Hospital (TEGH) is an example of how a professionally structured and implemented strategic planning process can be successfully developed and implemented in a community hospital. In this article, the environmental factors driving planning are reviewed and the critical success factors for the development and implementation of a strategic plan are examined in the context of TEGH's experience.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT:Dr. Bill Lougheed was able to navigate residents through even the most complex neurosurgical procedures with complete and often heroic patience, always ensuring for the patient his usual expert technical result but still leaving intact the resident’s sense of pride and achievement, the feeling that he, the resident, “had done it”. A gifted technical surgeon, a thoughtful and inventive neurosurgeon, Dr. Lougheed was above all else one of Canada’s great teachers of operative neurosurgery. Canada’s pioneer microneurosurgeon, Dr. Lougheed brought the Toronto General Hospital to the very forefront of the emerging field of vascular neurosurgery.

Abstract:

The current crisis in Canada's health care system calls for transformational change in the way we deliver care. The Collaborative Model of Care is not a new concept, but has not been implemented in Canadian acute care hospitals until recently. Toronto East General Hospital developed and piloted a collaborative care model on three acute units and initial results are promising in terms of improved patient safety, patient satisfaction, job satisfaction and improved use of resources.

Full text

Abstract:

Background The incidence of anal cancer (AC) in Canada is 1.5/100 000 but HIV-infected individuals have incidence rates from 49–144/100 000. It is important to examine risk factors for this difference. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed to look at risk factors in patients with the diagnosis of ‘anal cancer’ attending the Toronto General Hospital Immunodeficiency Clinic (TGH-IC) in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, from 1985 to 2013. There were 5200 clinic attendees. Results: 36 (0.96%) males attending TGH-IC were diagnosed with AC between 1985 and 2013; 17 (47%) were diagnosed since 2008. 7 (19.4%) are deceased; 6 (16.7%) as a result of AC. Mean age at diagnosis was 56 ± 9.8 years compared with mean age at TGH-IC of 48 ± 15.9 years (P = 0.015). 33 (91.7%) were on anti-retroviral therapy (ART) at time of diagnosis. Compared with current ART use, 30 (90.9%) vs 727 (72.6%; P = 0.015) were on nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs); 22 (66.7%) vs 554 (55.3%; P = 0.015) were on protease inhibitors; 8 (24.2%) vs 471 (47.0%; P = 0.015) were on NNRTIs. Median CD4 count at diagnosis was 265 cells mm–3, compared with the TGH-IC of 425 cells mm–3 (P = 0.04). A tobacco history (former or current) was found in 24 (72.7%) with AC vs 2232 (41%) without AC (P = 0.015). 35 (97.2%) underwent treatment: combination chemotherapy and radiation therapy being the most common in 23 (63.9%). Conclusions: In 28 years, there have been a total of 36 males diagnosed with anal cancer at TGH-IC. They were older, had a lower CD4 count and were more likely to be smokers. Combination chemotherapy and radiation therapy remains the mainstay of treatment for AC.

Abstract:

No matter the era, few aspects of residency are more defining or memorable than overnight call. Nights can be a time of growth and learning but also of fear and uncertainty, as residents take on the responsibility of managing sick patients on their own. One of us (ASD) started his residency in 1978 at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston; the other two (ST and BCY) started theirs in 2016 and 2017, respectively, at the University of Toronto. In this essay, we reflect on our experiences of night call separated by 40 years, highlighting what has changed and what has stayed the same.

Abstract:

A total of 62 staff members from a general hospital participated in a study about alexithymia and the five-factor model of personality, measured by the Toronto Alexithymia Scale and the NEO Five Factor Inventory, respectively, and their relationship to recognition affect. Subjects with alexithymic characteristics were less able to recognize affective states in posed facial expressions and so may have modified their empathic capacity.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT:After just completing his neurosurgical training in 1954 Dr. William Horsey visited Queen Square, England, where on one occasion he attended a pathological conference discussing a young man who had died from complications following biopsy of a low grade astrocytoma. One of the surgeons present, none other than the brilliant, mercurial and sometimes flamboyant Wylie McKissock, asked young Horsey what he thought of the case. What followed was not the primitive, colonial opinion that might have been expected. Unintimidated, Dr. Horsey said that he probably would not have operated on the man in the first place, since he was neurologically well-preserved bearing an intrinsic tumor causing minimal deformity of the ventriculogram. But if he had operated, Horsey went on, he would have finished the job with a proper decompression of the affected temporal lobe, rather than just a biopsy. And, he continued, if he had made the decision to treat this young man's tumor, he would also have treated his postoperative clot, with a second operation, to save the patient's life. It was this kind of sharp intelligence and sensibility, which so silenced a crowded Queen Square conference room that morning, combined with a superb operating technique and a particular dedication to teaching that characterized Bill Horsey's neurosurgical career.

Abstract:

AbstractIn 1993 a multidisciplinary neurotology clinic was established at the Toronto Hospital, University of Toronto, Where patients with symptoms of dizziness were assessed by both otolaryngologists and neurologists. The results from the first 400 patients seen in consultation are described. The disease pathologies identified in this patient population with dizziness showed some significant differences from other published series, which we believe reflects the specialized tertiary nature of referrals to this clinic. A model for the collaborative investigation of the dizzy patient is provided consistent with the current trend towards multidisciplinary approaches in medicine.

Abstract:

Dr Albert Douglas Courtemanche was born in Gravenhurst, Ontario on November 16, 1929. In 1949, he was accepted to the University of Toronto Medical School, graduating in 1955. After completing his internship at the Toronto General Hospital and at the Hospital for Sick Children, he completed his surgical training in Vancouver and in the United Kingdom. When Dr Courtemanche returned from his training in 1962, he joined Dr Cowan on the surgical staff at the Vancouver General Hospital. He was responsible for establishing a new plastic surgery ward, a dedicated operating room (OR), an integrated burn unit and also starting the UBC plastic surgery training program. Dr Courtemanche became involved in working with the Royal College, first as an examiner and then as the Chairman of the Plastic Surgery Exam Board in 1981. He eventually became the first and only plastic surgeon to ever hold the position as President of the Royal College. Dr Courtemanche emphasized throughout his career the importance of teaching and role modeling. A very proud moment in Dr Courtemanche’s career was when his son Douglas became a pediatric plastic surgeon. After retiring Dr Courtemanche became a volunteer at the VanDusen Botanical Garden and completed their Master Gardeners Program.

Abstract:

Abstract Strains on the mainstream mental health system can result in inaccessible services that force individuals with intellectual disabilities into the emergency room (ER) when in psychiatric crisis. The purpose of this study was to identify clinical and systemic issues surrounding emergency psychiatry services for people with intellectual disabilities, from the perspective of hospital staff. Focus groups were conducted with emergency psychiatry staff from 6 hospitals in Toronto, Canada. Hospital staff reported a lack of knowledge regarding intellectual disabilities and a shortage of available community resources. Hospital staff argued that caregivers need more community and respite support to feel better equipped to deal with the crisis before it escalates to the ER and that hospital staff feel ill prepared to provide the necessary care when the ER is the last resort. Input from hospital staff pointed to deficiencies in the system that lead caregivers to use the ER when other options have been exhausted. Both staff and caregivers need support and access to appropriate services if the system is to become more effective at serving the psychiatric needs of this complex population.
