Factors
18
What are factors? Factors are the causes that have made things happen in the history of medicine. They are different influences on the development of medicine. Each factor plays an important role in medicine’s changes over time. Factors can help or hinder change.
19
How do factors work? Almost always the factors work together to produce or prevent development in medicine. Although we will examine them separately remember that it would be very unusual for a single factor to alter the history of medicine.
20
How do we examine factors?
Identify the factors - see how they worked together - examine which was most important, if any. For example - Penicillin Individuals - Fleming, Florey and Chain Second World War The need for an antibiotic Chance - the discovery of mould!
21
So what factors play a part in Medicine?
Warfare Governments Superstition and Religion Chance Individuals Science and Technology Communication
22
Warfare War increased the need for medicine - without effective medicine there would be no army to fight! Roman army hospitals Paré’s ointment and ligatures Nightingale and the conditions in hospitals Penicillin X-rays & Skin grafts
23
Govt involvement means health for all, not just the rich
Governments A government needs to get involved in medicine if it wants to stay in power. Public Health means health for all, controlled by the government. Romans - aqueducts, baths 19th Century - Public Health act Mass vaccinations 1948 Start of NHS Medieval towns - Plague Industrial Cities - cholera, typhoid, high death rates Govt involvement means health for all, not just the rich
24
Did Religion help or hinder?
It spread ideas and education Provided care for the needy Kept the ideas of Galen Some helped as they were called by God Prevented dissection Prevented new ideas as Galen’s fitted the Churches teachings Dissection allowed around Protestantism began
25
Chance Chance has played a large role in medicine
What if Pare had not run out of oil? Pasteur’s work on Chicken cholera was an accident. What if Fleming had not seen the mould? Or what if he had cleaned up?
26
What was their effect on medicine?
Individuals Hippocrates - father of modern medicine Galen - Roman creator of medicine for 1500 years. Vesalius, Pare, Harvey - the new men of the Renaissance What was their effect on medicine?
27
Without these people would there have been a change?
Individuals Nightingale, Simpson, Lister - nursing, anaesthetic and antiseptic Koch and Pasteur - where does disease come from? Fleming, Florey and Chain - penicillin Without these people would there have been a change?
28
Science and Technology
Communications - new methods of sharing ideas, and of stopping ideas! Science and Technology - new poor technology prevents advances, new machines, such as microscopes help it
