Medical Interventions Essential questions 1. What is medical intervention? 2. How are diseases prevented? 3. What types of medical interventions are available to treat diseases? Medical intervention- Any examination, treatment, or other act having preventive, diagnostic therapeutic or rehabilitative aims and which is carried out by a physician or other health care provider (WHO, Amsterdam 1994). April 29

Activity  What medical interventions were available at specific times in history?  Read introduction as a class…  Create mini-PowerPoints in groups of 2-3  Will present Wednesday  Conclusion questions due Wednesday  Get in your own groups  Select a time period and put group by it:  Greek  Roman  Medieval  Early 1700s  Civil War  WWI  WWII April 29

Back to Ms. Anna Garcia Remember our evidence concept maps & the autopsy results? May 6

AM Class May 6

PM Class May 6

Autopsy Results (look back at notes)  Team #1  The victim’s blood glucose level was determined to be 425mg/dL at the time of her death.  There were traces of the drug thiazolidione in her blood.  There were levels of pioglitazone indicative of treatment protocol in her blood.  Team #2  The victim had fluid in her lungs.  Her skin was grey and clammy.  Her finger tips had a yellow tint.  Trace levels of theophylline were found in her blood.  Small, but larger than trace levels of nicotine were found in her blood.  Team #3  ACE inhibitors found in her blood.  Acetylsalicylic Acid found in blood.  Albumin level of 350 mg was found in a urine sample.  Blood shows anemia.  Team #4  Troponin T levels elevated in blood.  Creatine levels elevates in blood.  Small amounts of hydroxyurea found in blood.  Red blood cells misshapen.  Team #5  Head injury evident  Minimal bleeding from wound.  Clammy, moist skin  Nails on fingers blue/gray in color.  Edema of ankles visible.  Team #6  The post mortem examination ( the autopsy) found:  Fluid in the body cavity.  Discoloration of heart muscle in some locations.  Mitral valve damage, possibly due to rheumatic fever  Fluid in the lungs.  A yellow, semi-solid substance in the coronary arteries.  LDL Level 160 mg/dL  HDL Level 46 mg/dL May 6

Back to Ms. Anna Garcia  What conditions did we determine she was suffering from?  Look back at notes…  View autopsy on our Unit 7 page  What medical interventions could have been done to prolong this woman’s life?  Essential Questions 7. How do medical personnel decide on the best treatment for a patient? 8. Do all patients have the same access to medical care and treatment? 9. How have advances in technology affected the development and availability of medical interventions? May 6

The coolest medical interventions… May 7

…All from biomedical engineers  Biomedical Engineering- is the application of engineering principles and design concepts to medicine and biology.  This field seeks to close the gap between engineering and medicine: It combines the design and problem solving skills of engineering with medical and biological sciences to advance healthcare treatment, including diagnosis, monitoring, treatment and therapy.engineering medicinediagnosis monitoringtherapy  Uses the principles and processes involved in all aspects of engineering and apply them to design and develop products for living organisms, including humans.  Check out the 10 Greatest Medical Interventions in the Last 50 Years on our website ( May 7
