She will be back to work back month of July.

Eye Mucle Repair

The conjunctiva links the eyeball to the eye socket. The external muscles of the eye are found behind the conjunctiva. The extraocular muscles of the eye (external to the eyeball) control the positioning of the eyes. They coordinate of the eye movement between the eyes providing coordinated sight in all directions.

Strabismus (crossed eyes) is caused by a lack of muscle coordination between the eyes, causing the eyes to point in different directions. The eyes are unable to focus simultaneously on a single point.  Strabismus may result from problems with the extraocular muscles (the six muscle pairs that move the eyes), problems with neurological control of the extra-ocular muscles, neurotoxins, blindness, mechanical problems in the eye, or mechanical obstruction to vision in one eye during early life.

In adults, strabismus may be a symptom of various brain disorders or systemic diseases. Surgery may be recommended when strabismus does not respond to medical or optical treatment. A small incision is made on each side of the eyeball in the tissue between the eye and eyelid (conjunctiva). One or more of the muscles of the eye are strengthened or weakened to allow proper position and movement of the eyeball. Usual activities and exercise can usually be resumed shortly after surgery.

Colostomy

The colon or large intestine connects the small intestines to the rectum. A colostomy is done when the lower large intestine, rectum, or anus is unable to function normally or needs rest from normal functions. Intestinal obstruction with associated inflammation, as in diverticulitis is a common indication for colostomy.

A colostomy creates an opening on the abdomen which is called stoma for the drainage of stool or feces from the large intestine (colon). Colostomies are usually performed after the diseased colon has been removed. Colostomies may be temporary or permanent. while the client is deep asleep and pain free or with general anesthesia. An incision is made in the abdomen and the diseased colon is removed.

The proximal end of the healthy colon is then brought out to the skin of the abdominal wall, where it is sutured in place. An adhesive drainage bag or stoma appliance is placed around the opening. The abdominal incision is then closed.

In more than 90% of the cases, the surgery is sucessful. The client may experience considerable pain after surgery as the anus tightens and relaxes. medications to relieve pain maybe used. to avoid straining, stool softeners is applicable. soaking in a warm bath can give additional comfort.

Biliary Obstruction

The bile is a digestive fluid that is secreted by the liver and being stored in the gallbladder. This is released into the duodenum, the portion of the small intestine through the sphincter of Oddi. Bile released after a meal containing fats, it aids in the absorption and digestion of the fat.

Biliary obstruction occurs when the duct that transports bile from the liver to the small intestine (duodenum) is blocked by a stone, a tumor, an injury or an inflammation of any of the ducts. A tumor that can be find in the pancreas may press in on the ducts which will cause the backup of bile in the gallbladder. Blood tests may indicate a high levels of bilirubin, a waste product of the liver. The diagnosis may come from an endoscopic examination. If it is left untreated, the biliary obstruction can cause life-threatening infection or chronic liver disease.

The placement of stent is also one method of relieving a blockage of the bile duct due to pancreatic tumors. Stent is a device designated to hold tube-shaped structures open. An endoscope is an instrument placed down the throat into the esophagus, through the stomach to the duodenum of the intestines. This helps the surgeon to see the blockage and to place the stent in the correct position. A dye may be injected and x-ray images taken to insure the stent is correctly placed and the flow of the bile is restored.

Once the flow of the bile is restored, the threat of infection and inflammation is decreased. However, the prognosis may also not be significantly altered if the pancreatic carcinoma is otherwise untreatable. Reoccurence of the blockage may occur, thus requiring further surgery or replacement of the stent.

Appendectomy

The appendix is a small, finger-shaped pouch of intestinal tissue which is arising from the cecum near its junction with the small intestine. When the appendix becomes infected it must be surgically removed before it ruptures and will spread the infection throughout the abdominal space. A person with acute appendicitis manifest pain in the lower right quadrant of the abdomen. Often accompanied by fever and reduced appetite to eat with nausea and vomiting. The patient must be check for abdominal tenderness and tightness as well as the rectum for tenderness and enlarged appendix. In women, a pelvic exam should be done to exclude pain caused by the ovaries or uterus. Additionally, blood tests and x-rays may also be performed.

Depending  upon the circumstances of the individual patient, an appendectomy can be performed in two ways, either through an open incision or with the use of laparoscope. The open technique, an incision is made in the lower right quadrant of the abdomen through the skin, muscle wall and peritoneum. The appendix must be carefully located and freed from the surrounding structures and removed. While, the laparoscopic technique, several small incisions are made in the abdomen. In the incision a lapraoscope is inserted, it has a tiny lens attached to a TV camera. Appendectomy is being performed by the surgeon while looking at the TV monitor while small instruments are inserted in the other incisions and used to remove the appendix.

In an instance that a pocket of infection has formed or the appendix has ruptured, the abdomen should be thoroughly washed out during surgery.  A penrose is put in place to allow the infection to drain. After the procedure is completely done, the patient will be place in the recovery room to be monitored. Most of patients can go home the day after the operation unless manifest any untoward sighs and symptoms. The patient can also resume a normal diet and activities with one to two weeks. If the appendix develops an abcess or has ruptured, the recovery may be slower and more complicated, requiring use of medications such ad antibiotics to treat the infection. Living without an appendix causes no known health problems.

Hello world!

This is my new blog site..

I would like to thank my good friend jophilsuperman, for the wonderful ideas he shared in blogging online..
