Is the traditional way of diagnosing heart problem saturated with flaws?

‘You’ve got a serious problem; it’s related to your cardiac movements. The time is not far, hence, you must and must strictly follow the medications that I’m prescribing you. Even by mistake do not waver in having them...’...

Let me start with the proverbial ‘Good news Bad news.’ The good news for the white middle-aged British men is they have lower risk of heart disease than previously thought. While the bad news is that the anti-cholesterol drugs ‘statins,’ which they were prescribed and have been consuming for years, were never really required in the first place.

These and several other flaws in the way doctors diagnose the risk of cardiovascular diseases among patients have been pointed out in a recent study conducted by the British Medical Journal. True enough the studies need to be regularly updated to keep sync with changing conditions affecting disease, but such a discrepancy in results over time points to a serious flaw somewhere.

I pity those poor guys who spent money in trying to prevent heart attacks, thinking ’better safe than sorry.’ Wonder if they will get some kind of reimbursements? Probably not.

Screw the Health care companies. Creating mountain of a mole hill!

There is a difference between how doctors used to advise around 15 years back and how they advise now.

Today, with new inventions doctors study the ”reasons” for particular ailment and then the ”cure”, as against the previos strategy of doctors to straight away go for the ”cure”

There is nothing better than the technology, and you need to trust those who have an expertise in a particular field.

Finding fault with doctors way of handling a patient is like a ”cobbler” suggesting NASA of how to make rockets.

Let the people with expertise and technology decide , and the people have to TRUST them.

If the TRUST factor is not there , there would be no CURE.

It is not for nothing that an average age of people have increased. People have stopped dying of small pox and chiken pox. Polio has almost been eradicated. Work is on for the cure of AIDS.

What more do the doctors and health care people have to do to make you trust them ?

Today the risk of heart disease is very high, and it is not secret that this is one of the main causes of people’s death. Sometimes this may force you to seek help from a physician or go to the hospital, you generally feel assured that a doctor’s years of experience and training will result in excellent treatment. However, that’s not the case in Italy – they’re going to need some type of payday loans to heal the wounds caused by medical malpractice. Italian authorities have arrested 70 nurses and hospital attendants who allegedly got their jobs using fake nursing diplomas. The criminal organization behind this was selling these diplomas to those who were looking for extra cash or a higher payday, which ran about 15,000 Euros or $19,000 dollars. The clients were required to go through a very basic training as not to give away their incompetence and expose the sham program. Fortunately, their lack of experience eventually caught up and the crime ring’s operation was brought down. Here in the U.S., there have been many reports of malpractice over the years. We’ve heard horrifying stories of people who were given the wrong diagnosis. There are stories of individuals who get the wrong limbs amputated or go in for surgery and end up getting the wrong organ removed, some even leading to a wrongful death. There are startling statistics on malpractice; some 44,000 to 88,000 cases get filed each year. But in truth, medical professionals are only humans and mistakes are bound to happen. Although we will never be able to completely master being perfect, there are other things we can do that are within our capabilities to improve our medical system. One of the important issues we must address is the grueling schedule worked by new resident doctors. A poll said that the longest average shift worked by those in residency was 37.6 hours with most working over eighty hours a week on average. Sleep deprivation is not only a rising concern in this field, but it can result in something absolutely deadly. So the next time you go to the doctor and he looks sleepy, don’t hesitate to reschedule your appointment – your life may depend on it.
