These infections are known as bacterial infections and doctors prescribe antibiotics as mode of treatment.
Antibiotics were introduced in 1940 and since then they have been significant to modern medicine. The core role of antibiotics was to treat infections caused by bacteria. However, ...

Abstract

Mental illnesses account for one of the oldest but least understood health issue facing the human race. The ancient Romans and Egyptians considered mental illness to be a manifestation of demonic possession. The same belief was carried on to the Middle Ages, as well as during the Renaissance. In America, this belief only changed in the last years of the eighteenth century. The belief that spiritual possession caused mental illness resulted in treatment procedures being inhumane. Most of these treatments involved the isolation of patients from the public. However, as people become enlightened, the modes of treatment changed, with ...

Superstitions in American culture

Superstitions refer to belief in magic and fear of the unknown, which leads individuals to adopt irrational behaviors. The influence of superstitions on individuals has remained strong throughout human history, but this influence has been declining with increased urbanization and education of the masses.

However, some superstitions remain prevalent in American culture and other industrialized societies. During Halloween it is traditionally believed that it is a period that common myths, omens and folklore have more weight for the people who ...

The law allows us to take certain decisions, so as to facilitate the accomplishment of our everyday desires. Only those who violate it have no freedom.

An extremely new product making its impact on the health and wellness marketplace is the Airing. It is a small, hoseless, cordless, CPAP machine, which looks and (purportedly) feels completely different than its predecessors.
CPAP stands for Constant Positive Airway Pressure and is a therapy device used to treat those with sleep apnea. The new device, called Airing, was developed by inventor Steven Marsh, from a project that was focused on very different technology. He refers to its development as an “incredibly happy accident (Medcalf 1).” He was working on a technology focused research assignment on mico-fluid pumps in micro electro mechanical ...

ABSTRACT

Ethical issues are something that is a reality in modern medicine. This is certainly true when it comes to religious, spiritual and philosophical belief systems. Sometimes these strongly held beliefs are on the part of patients, but there are times when beliefs are held by healthcare workers. There are ethical codes in place that protect a patient’s right to refuse treatments, like blood transfusions, if they ethically or morally feel that are not what they wish to do. There are also options available for healthcare workers who feel that they cannot ethically be involved in certain treatments or ...

Many people with disability have observed and experienced substantial change to cultural approaches towards disability in their lifetimes.

The question of the validity of the use of stimulants for the treatment of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is highly connected to the question of attempting to balance the effectiveness of the drugs and the dangers inherent in their use.

What ends up happening as a result is that people are exposed to living conditions with lower sanitation that were seen many centuries ago. This subjects these populations to diseases that they may have not been subject to previously.
In order to combat this epidemic, we have to ...

Increase of PTSD in the Military

Introduction

In the post cold war era, there was widespread hope for the end of armed conflict. However, such hopes were belied. Instead of long-drawn standoffs between the major powers of the world, the nature of conflict became more variegated and localized. Added to the larger number of smaller scale conflicts was the new phenomenon of a ‘clash between civilizations.’ Islamic movements challenged the supremacy of the United States, which had emerged as the sole superpower on the global stage. The new realities have forced the United States to continue to deploy military ...

A cow has always been viewed as a sacred animal in the Hindu culture. While other animals are confined and used for other commercial purposes, cows are left to roam freely in India without the threat of being harmed. Every day, they are worshiped and even fed with human food. Unlike elephants, monkeys and the likes that feature as idols in Hindu worship, the image of a cow has never been curved or used in temples as an idol (Brown, 1957, p. 87). However, the physical cow has always been considered as a god that is respected by all Hindus. As a reflection ...
