Robotic Surgery
Robotic surgery is quickly gaining widespread acceptance in the ORL community as a tool to improve effectiveness of surgery and reduce complications. However, this technology is still relatively young. As such, hospitals are confronted with the daunting task of recommending large investment in equipment without a clear understanding of its applications, usage, or evidence base. This special issue of ORL is a welcome guide to surgical teams tasked with setting up or enhancing a robotic surgery theater. Experts in the field give a clear unbiased assessment of the tools currently available to surgeons and present views of how technologies such as augmented reality will impact surgical practice in the future. The publication provides a clear overview of the rationale, techniques, and evidence of this technology. The main indications for such procedures are covered not just at a US or European level (e.g. transoral robotic surgery) but worldwide (e.g. para- and thyroidectomy). This publication is a must-read for practitioners of head & neck surgery, plastic reconstructive surgery, sleep surgery, and endocrine surgery, as well as for anesthetists.
India’s Draft Health Data Management Policy: ORF Recommendations
The COVID-19 pandemic has served as a wakeup call to India, as it has across the globe. Public health systems, both in developed and developing nations, are showing signs of stress in handling the number of patients afflicted by both COVID-19 and non-COVID ailments. As efforts to manage the pandemic tend to undermine care for other illnesses, including serious ones like cancer, there are concerns of delay in the diagnosis and treatment of these non-COVID illnesses.[1] Moreover, physical-distancing norms, as well as fear of contracting COVID-19 from a hospital, are preventing people from getting medical help in-person. The imperative is to build a comprehensive telemedicine network that will fill the gaps. Broadly, any telemedicine framework needs to provide the following services:
TransOral Robotic Surgery for Obstructive Sleep Apnea
This comprehensive book pulls together the essential elements needed to assess sleep apnea patients for the transoral robotic surgical approach and how to optimize the surgery. Detailed information on patient selection, pre-operative work up, anesthesiological pre and post-operative management, surgery, complication prevention and management is provided along with background on sleep medicine and sleep surgery. Authored for ENT surgeons, head and neck specialists and neurologists, pneumonologists, sleep doctors as well for anesthesiologists, chapters offer solutions pulled from experts in the field of sleep surgery and information relevant to geographic areas worldwide.
Comprehensive Tracheostomy Care
Comprehensive Tracheostomy Care is a resource developed by the UK National Tracheostomy Safety Project (NTSP) to help promote and facilitate the safe management of tracheostomies and laryngectomies. The scope includes hospital in-patient specialist areas such as critical care, head & neck units and specialist wards, but it is also applicable to more general wards, outpatient and community settings. The majority of the content is for adult patients, complemented by a dedicated paediatric chapter developed with colleagues from Great Ormond Street Hospital. The manual is a 'one stop shop' covering all aspects of tracheostomy and laryngectomy management. It includes multidisciplinary resources f...
Multi-Treatment Modalities of Liver Tumours
Cancer is one of the major health problems of our time and liver cancer is responsible for over one million deaths per year world-wide, making it the fourth most common cause of death from cancer. Surgical resection of the tumour(s) is the treatment of choice and offers the only chance of prolonged survival. Yet the best attempts are often frustrated by either advanced or co-existent disease that renders the patient non-resectable. This book tackles the many options available to doctors and patients in an attempt to combat this desperate disease.
Robotic Surgery of the Head and Neck
Robotic Surgery of the Head and Neck is the first comprehensive guide for otolaryngologists who wish to perform robotic head and neck surgery. Edited by leaders in the field, this book focuses on how improved access, visualization, and flexibility of the technology have greatly expanded the capabilities of the head and neck surgeon to treat diseases transorally or through small incisions in the skin. Starting with an overview of minimally invasive surgery in the head and neck, and moving to discussions of anatomic considerations for these procedures and the future applications of robotic surgery for otolaryngologists, Robotic Surgery of the Head and Neck explores the exciting progress of robotic technologies, bringing physicians closer to achieving the benefits of traditional surgery with the least amount of disruption to the patient.
The Spark in the Machine
Why can salamanders grow new legs, and young children grow new finger tips, but adult humans can't regenerate? What is the electricity that flows through the human body? Is it the same thing that the Chinese call Qi? If so, what does Chinese medicine know, that western medicine ignores? Dan Keown's highly accessible, witty, and original book shows how western medicine validates the theories of Chinese medicine, and how Chinese medicine explains the mysteries of the body that western medicine largely ignores. He explains the generative force of embryology, how the hearts of two people in love (or in scientific terms `quantum entanglement') truly beat as one, how a cheating heart is also an il...
