Hello to all, I am going to talk today about the use of technology within my area or subjects. Well in my career is important the use of the technology because it give a help to make the thing easier in our professional work and do our jobs better. And help to give a better attention to the pregnant, the newborn and to all the women.
Well the technologies that we use in our career are:
•Ultrasound: the ultrasound have an important role in the attention of the pregnant, because we use to diagnostic the pregnancy and to see the numbers of foetuses, to evaluate the foetus (congenital malformations, height and weight), to evaluate the quantity of amniotic liquid, to evaluate the site of insertion of the placenta and the state of this.
•Foetal heart monitor- Tocodynamometer: we use this two technological equips to evaluate the foetus in the labour and compare the foetal heartbeat and the contractions of the pregnant and this help us to evaluate the capacity of the foetus to resist the labour and the vitality of them.
•Radiant cot: is very used in the services of Neonatology because this give help in the attention to the newborns that have problems in their thermoregulation
•Incubators: is used in the services of Neonatology in newborns of preterm and in newborns. It consists in a closed chamber with a sterilized mattress and calefaction. The incubator allows you to limit infant exposure to germs, and the complexity of the equipment also allows various care treatments, including intravenous therapy, supplemental oxygen, mechanical support of respiration and drug administration
Well for these reasons the technology are very important in our area because these give help in the attention of all the procedures in our area, to give a better attention to our patients and give an attention of quality to all of our patients and improve the quality of life of our community and of the all medical equipment.
In my opinion the technology is fundamental in an attention of quality for the diagnostic and treatment of illnes.

Dr. House

Hello to all, I am going to talk today about Dr. House, it is an American television medical drama, starring for Hugh Laurie how Dr. Gregory House. The program was conceived by David Shore and Paul Attanasio; Shore is credited as creator.
Dr. House is an unconventional and misanthropic medical genius who heads a team of diagnosticians at the fictional Princeton Plainsboro Teaching Hospital (PPTH) in New Jersey.
Dr. House often clashes with his boss (and later, girlfriend), hospital administrator and Dean of Medicine Dr. Lisa Cuddy (Lisa Edelstein), and his diagnostic team, because many of his hypotheses about patients' illnesses are based on subtle or controversial insights. House's only true friend is Dr. James Wilson (Robert Sean Leonard), head of the Department of Oncology.
House's original team of diagnosticians consists of Dr. Eric Foreman (Omar Epps), a neurologist; Dr. Robert Chase (Jesse Spencer), an intensivist; and Dr. Allison Cameron (Jennifer Morrison), an immunologist. In the fourth season House tricks Cuddy into allowing him to hire three new assistants. He ultimately selects Dr. Chris Taub (Peter Jacobson), a former plastic surgeon; Dr. Lawrence Kutner (Kal Penn), a sports medicine specialist; and Dr. Remy "Thirteen" Hadley (Olivia Wilde), an internist (nicknamed for her number in the elimination contest). In the season finale, Thirteen discovers she has, as she had long dreaded, Huntington's disease, which is incurable.
The series count whit seven seasons, in the last season the history is focused on Dr. House relationship with Dr. Lisa Cuddy.
This series is my favorite because the cases that they show are very incredible and the form of diagnostic the illness of the Dr. House is very brilliant.

Myths and Truth about the Human Brain

Hello to all, I am going to talk today about the presentation of the Dr. Maldonado of the last week about “Myths and Truth about the Human Brain”. For us, as health professionals, is very important know about the Human Brain.
The first myth that Dr. Maldonado presented is: “The human brain is different from the brain of the others animals”, the doctor said that is false because the animals brains and the human brain are very similar, the only difference is the size of the cortex, the human brain has a longest cortex than animal brain and the human brain has more neurons.
The other myth: “Every brain functions are localized in a specific place of the brain”, this is false because we use different part of the brain to do the same action.
The next myth: “The brain is like computer”, it is very false because the human brain has a distributed memory and the computer has a localized memory, and the human brain can do a lot of functions at the same time while the computer can do only one action.
Other myth: “We use only 10% of our brain”, it is absolutely false because our brain have plasticity for this the brain can adapt to different function also for the same action different part of the brain can activate to do this action.
The knowledge of the structure and function of the human brain is very important in our career because we need know this to educate the pregnant about the early stimulation that is important to the development of the fetus brain.
