Too Little Thyroid Hormone Equals Hypothyroidism

Posted by admin | August 30th, 2010 in Hypothyroidism | No Comments »

Hypothyroidism is the name for the condition where too little thyroid hormone is secreted by the thyroid gland. In order to be diagnosed with this condition, a blood test is performed where the amount of thyroid hormone in the blood is measured. If the amount of the hormone in the blood falls below the normal range, a diagnosis of hypothyroidism is made.

People who receive the blood test are those who have been suffering from hypothyroidism symptoms for no other apparent reason. Fatigue is one of the major symptoms of not having enough thyroid hormone in the bloodstream and fatigue can be caused by any number of factors.

Although the majority of people with hypothyroidism can easily be diagnosed with a simple blood test, not everyone who has this condition will be diagnosed. Some individuals have mild symptoms, some have severe symptoms, from the same low levels. Those with mild symptoms may never give their symptoms a second thought. The level of missing thyroid hormones does not always correspond to the degree of symptoms experienced by a person.

Hypothyroidism symptoms are usually quite easy to treat. Most people respond well to taking a thyroid hormone pill once a day. This pill is a synthetic form of the thyroid hormone that is usually secreted in sufficient quantities by the thyroid gland.

Digital Hearing Aids

Posted by Engy | August 26th, 2010 in Digital Hearing Aids | No Comments »

Digital Hearing AidsThe tremendous advances in electronic technology have allowed the construction of small hearing aids, “to complete disappearance in the duct, and highly comfortable since circuits allow children to use large ventilations for greater ventilation of the ear canal, thereby reducing the annoying problem of boom and car speech. The miniaturization of electronics enables the circuit to play in a few millimeters, millions of features, comparing them to real computer aids, offering performance unimaginable until recently.

Revolutionary innovations
The latest generation of hearing aids include a range of advanced digital products, suitable for all types of hearing loss of mild to severe.

Voice Finder is a combined voice detection and comfort that maximizes discrimination voice when the voice is present in the input signal and automatically reduces the ambient noise in the absence of voice. Read the rest of this entry »

Stethoscope

Posted by Engy | August 23rd, 2010 in Stethoscopes | 1 Comment »

StethoscopeStethoscope that is currently used is based on original artwork Laennec. The main parts of the lid on the modern stethoscope (bell), which may be open or closed by a thin membrane, and earpieces. Open lid (open bell) function to adjust / match the impedance between skin and air. Lid closed (closed bell) is really just a lid that has a diaphragm with a specific resonant frequency, usually high, and inhibits the low-frequency noises.

Function Stethoscope

The stethoscope has many functions in health and is a very useful tool to have around, if you know what you’re listening, and place to place.

The History And Workings Stethoscope

Posted by Engy | August 9th, 2010 in Stethoscopes | No Comments »

StethoscopePerhaps there is a symbol of medicine’s most famous addition to the stethoscope. “Hearing aids” This simple allows doctors to hear voices coming from inside the body, especially heart and lung in addition to joints and partially blocked artery. Listening to these sounds with a stethoscope is called auscultation (Mediate auscultation), or usually just auscultation. Many sounds from the chest area can be utilized to diagnose diseases. Before the year 1818, the only existing method for examining the chest is touching with his hands, percussion, and sometimes, auscultation close to his ear pressed to his chest.

In A Treatise on the Diseases of the Chest and on Mediate Auscultation (1818), R. T. H. Laennec explain the purpose of direct ear to his chest: “This action is not always fun, both for physicians and patients; in women, this action is not only presumptuous, but also difficult to apply, and for those who are in hospital, this action sucks . ‘At the time, doctors routinely conduct home visits and treat nearly all patients in his home. Only patients who go to the charity hospital. Read the rest of this entry »

YAG-Laser

Posted by Engy | August 5th, 2010 in YAG-Laser | 2 Comments »

YAG-Laser
Innovative ideas in 1993 led to the development of laser Martin Nd: YAG.

For the first time the idea was made to separate the laser head unit power. In this way, the laser has become a mobile unit. Thanks to the extraordinary quality of the beam, the device Martin Nd: YAG-Laser MY 60 transmits energy through thin fibers, which allows the use of laser through the catheter and steerable endoscope.

New horizons in metastatic lung surgery
The apparatus YAG-Laser MY 40 1.3 KLS Martin reaches a new dimension in lung metastatic surgery. The specific characteristics of the wavelength of the machine in this surgical technique uses have a mild effect on the parenchyma and the lung lobes.

also eliminates a very large quantity of metastases (> 150) whose size varies from a grain of rice to the tennis ball. Metastases and tumors in depth can be extracted while maintaining the segments or lobes affected. Through areas of coagulation flexible, but fixed by the mechanical point of view, you can suture of the visceral pleura for double security.

offers decisive advantages thanks to the area of resection without blood and without fistula formation. In case of relapse, you can repeat interventions. The removal of lung and maintenance of complete segments or lobes affected patients provides a significant extension in life expectancy, the quality is virtually unchanged.

Microbes Can Jump?

Posted by Engy | August 1st, 2010 in Surgery Equipments | 2 Comments »

MicrobesCertainly not beyond the sterile barrier Microstop ®!
This was the substantial demand for KLS Martin at the time of the development of germ barrier Microstop ®. And success gives us reason based on the principle of the hooked Pasteur pipette, the barrier germ Microstop ® achieves a level of filtering 99.99997% well, providing a much more effective protection from microbes and particles than any filter.

With the new generation Microstop ® we have further enhanced the system in terms of safety and hygiene. How we do it? On the one hand with a new design of the lid is closed, with two lateral flow paths. Secondly with the security system Greencheck ®, which facilitates full verification to confirm the sterility of equipment and monitoring in the operating room before surgery. Finally we added a number of details to simplify the daily routine in the central sterilization department and hospital operating room.
Microstop ® – Operation Barrier antigerme

A true innovation does not compromise

The operating room is the place where safety, hygiene and sterility are of the utmost priority. On the other hand, hospitals are subject to enormous pressure in terms of costs. With the new generation Microstop ®, KLS Martin meets both requirements: the system of sterile most innovative on the market is in fact safe and affordable at the same time. The new sterile containers are available in standard and MiniSet. Read the rest of this entry »
