  asjia o'neal heart surgery: Boys Among Men Jonathan Abrams, 2016-03-15 The definitive, never-before-told story of the prep-to-pro generation, those basketball prodigies who from 1995 to 2005 made the jump directly from high school to the NBA. When Kevin Garnett shocked the world by announcing that he would not be attending college—as young basketball prodigies were expected to do—but instead enter the 1995 NBA draft directly from high school, he blazed a trail for a generation of teenage basketball players to head straight for the pros. That trend would continue until the NBA instituted an age limit in 2005, requiring all players to attend college or another developmental program for at least one year. Over that decade-plus period, the list of players who made that difficult leap includes some of the most celebrated players of the modern era—Garnett, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Dwight Howard, Tracy McGrady, and numerous other stars. It also includes notable “busts” who either physically or mentally proved unable to handle the transition. But for better or for worse, the face of the NBA was forever changed by the prep-to-pro generation. In compelling, masterfully crafted prose, Boys Among Men goes behind the scenes and draws on hundreds of firsthand interviews to paint insightful and engaging portraits of the most pivotal figures and events during this time. Award-winning basketball writer Jonathan Abrams has obtained remarkable access to the key players, coaches, and other movers and shakers from that time, and the result is a book packed with rare insights and never-before-published details about this chapter in NBA history. Boys Among Men is a thrilling, informative, must-read for any basketball fan.
  asjia o'neal heart surgery: How To Recover From Open Heart Surgery Steve Corkhill, 2018-10-01 Step inside the mind of 'Ben', an open heart surgery patient, as he takes the journey from initial diagnosis through lying on the slab, his heart literally in somebody else’s hands, and the subsequent roller-coaster of emotions as he seeks 'recovery'. Share his hopes, expectations, frustrations, joy, laughter, camaraderie and loneliness as he takes the journey. Written for the hundreds of thousands of people who will find themselves in a similar position each year. You are not alone. After the initial shock of being told that he needed open heart surgery, his thoughts quickly turned to practical matters. He was self-employed and so lived by the “No show, no dough” edict. Not working could quickly have repercussions that he needed to plan for. He wanted to be able to give people who would be affected some sort of an idea of what to expect while he recovered. And recover he would. He had no doubt about that. When you have an idea of what to expect, you can handle adversity a whole lot more effectively. All he needed was to have general guidelines to three simple questions: - What should he expect? - What could he do to speed up a recovery? - And how long was he really likely to be out of action for? He expected standard answers to be readily available. The success rate was encouragingly high – way over ninety per cent - and it was performed hundreds of thousands of times a year around the globe. It would be bizarre if there wasn’t a well-established set of standards by now. But there wasn’t. Or at least there wasn’t one he could find, no matter how hard he looked. And the more he looked and asked for it, the more vague was the answer. “It’s complicated. It depends.” Feedback from readers and reviewers include heart-warming comments about how the story has helped to explain events affecting loved ones that they were ‘protected’ from when they were small children. This book is brilliant. It takes you through so many emotions and you get a real insight into not only how the patient feels but also what the family goes through during times like this. Suitable for people before an op, post op as well as friends and family going through this ordeal, but also a great read in general! The emotions hit hard in some places, but at the same time provides a lot of entertainment! A must read for everyone!! “This will be immensely reassuring to anyone going through this experience.” “Enthralling. I didn’t want to put it down. Everyone knows somebody who has had similar fears.” “Hugely encouraging and enlightening.” “Great to highlight this, so other families will know what to expect.” “Breaks down so many unknowns” “I was hooked after the first few pages” “I do believe this would help enormously” “As a story I was eager to find out what lay ahead in the journey; as an education I was keen to get a better understanding to the whole experience, and having read it I feel like I would have so much more empathy / be more effective” “Read it right through in one sitting” “I'm not too proud to admit that I shed a tear reading it”
  asjia o'neal heart surgery: King of Hearts G. Wayne Miller, 2010-02-10 Few of the great stories of medicine are as palpably dramatic as the invention of open-heart surgery, yet, until now, no journalist has ever brought all of the thrilling specifics of this triumph to life. This is the story of the surgeon many call the father of open-heart surgery, Dr. C. Walton Lillehei, who, along with colleagues at University Hospital in Minneapolis and a small band of pioneers elsewhere, accomplished what many experts considered to be an impossible feat: He opened the heart, repaired fatal defects, and made the miraculous routine. Acclaimed author G. Wayne Miller draws on archival research and exclusive interviews with Lillehei and legendary pioneers such as Michael DeBakey and Christiaan Barnard, taking readers into the lives of these doctors and their patients as they progress toward their landmark achievement. In the tradition of works by Richard Rhodes and Tracy Kidder, King of Hearts tells the story of an important and gripping piece of forgotten science history.
  asjia o'neal heart surgery: The Open Heart Club Gabriel Brownstein, 2019-10-22 This absorbing and poignant book is not merely the story of one writer's flawed heart. It is a history of cardiac medicine, a candid personal journey, and a profound reflection on mortality. Born in 1966 with a congenital heart defect known as the tetralogy of Fallot, Gabriel Brownstein entered the world just as doctors were learning to operate on conditions like his. He received a life-saving surgery at five years old, and since then has ridden wave after wave of medical innovation, a series of interventions that have kept his heart beating. The Open Heart Club is both a memoir of a life on the edge of medicine's reach and a history of the remarkable people who have made such a life possible. It begins with the visionary anatomists of the seventeenth century, tells the stories of the doctors (all women) who invented pediatric cardiology, and includes the lives of patients and physicians struggling to understand the complexities of the human heart. The Open Heart Club is a riveting work of compassionate storytelling, a journey into the dark hinterlands between sickness and health lit by bright moments of humor and inspiration.
  asjia o'neal heart surgery: Coping with Heart Surgery and Bypassing Depression Carol Cohan, June B. Pimm, James R. Jude, 1998 Knowledge is power. Study after scientific study has shown that the right kind of information about a medical problem speeds recovery. And when that medical problem is heart surgery, information specially tailored to answer patients; questions, quiet their fears, and give them a sense of control over their circumstances promises the quickest and most complete recovery possible. This unique combination of practical information and solutions to common problems fills the pages of Coping with Heart Surgery and Bypassing Depression. The problems associated with heart surgery become less threatening when you know what to expect, when you understand the problems you encounter, and when you can solve those problems. Accordingly, Coping with Heart Surgery and Bypassing Depression spells out everything you need to know to enter surgery with confidence and recover swiftly and smoothly. The book provides detailed information about the events that accompany each stage of the heart surgery experience from the time surgery is recommended until months after convalescence is under way. It discusses what other patients encountered at each stage, problems that arose, and a variety of solutions. And it invites you to pick and choose among the suggestions to suit your particular needs and personality style.

  asjia o'neal heart surgery: The Angina Monologues Samer Nashef, 2020-02-04 A pioneering cardiac surgeon expertly sews up the heart of surgery. The Angina Monologues speeds from the transporting of a donor's heart up the highway's shoulder, to cautionary stories of excessive intervention gone awry in US hospitals, to a traumatic trip to bring advanced cardiac surgery to the Palestinian West Bank. Nashef tells heartstopping stories of transplants, coronary artery bypasses, aorta repair, and cardiac arrest. He also delivers humane advice about medical realities rarely observed: the futility of obsessing over diet, the necessity of calculating risks, the role of decision making, and the resilience of doctor and patient alike. Nashef is a magnificently warm and likeable doctor and writer; and he has the best imaginable bedside manner.

  asjia o'neal heart surgery: Can You Die of a Broken Heart? Nikki Stamp, 2018-02-21 In the vein of Gut and The Brain That Changes Itself, a gripping exploration into the inner workings of the heart and how emotions and lifestyle affect every beat. 'Dr Stamp is so clearly in love with her subject: that wonderful and yet still mysterious organ, the human heart.' Michael Mosley When actress Debbie Reynolds died a day after her beloved daughter, Carrie Fisher, the world diagnosed it as 'heartbreak'. But what's the evidence? Does emotional upheaval affect the heart? Can love, or chocolate, really heal our heart problems? And why do we know so much about heart attacks in men, when they are more fatal in women? Heart and lung surgeon Dr Nikki Stamp takes us into the operating theatre, explaining what she sees in patients with heart complications and how a life-saving transplant works. Stamp fell in the love with the heart as a child and continues to be fascinated by its workings and the whole-of-life experiences that affect it. Rich with anecdotes, and insights for maintaining heart health, Can You Die of a Broken Heart? is a blockbuster from a uniquely positioned young specialist.
  asjia o'neal heart surgery: Color Atlas of Congenital Heart Surgery S. Bert Litwin, 2007-09-24 The last three decades have witnessed enormous progress in the care of patients with congenital heart disease. Treatment of congenital heart disease is highly dependent on technology and much of the progress we have witnessed is attrib utable to technological advances we take almost for granted today. It would be difficult to overestimate the impact of these advances; noteworthy examples include the development of 2-D Doppler echocardiography resulting in increased diagnostic accuracy, improvements in preoperative management including the use of prostaglandins for maintaining ductal patency, better intraoperative support such as the development of cardiopulmonary bypass circuits specifically designed for neonates and infants and improvements in postoperative care too numerous to delineate. As the spectrum of congenital heart disease we can treat successfully has broadened and the results have improved much of the focus has shifted, properly, to long-term issues such as neurodevelopmental outcome and quality of life. Despite the current focus on long-term outcomes we must not forget that surgery is central to our treatment strategy. The word technology is derived from the Greek word techne meaning craft and before any late out comes can be measured the craft of surgery must be performed with excellence. Dr. Litwin's career has spanned these last three decades and he has witnessed and participated in the evolution of congenital heart surgery. The second edition of a Color Atlas of Congenital Heart Surgery is an outstanding contribution to the field by a master of the craft of congenital heart surgery.
  asjia o'neal heart surgery: Broken Hearts David S. Jones, 2013-03 A history illustrating the complexity of medical decision making and risk. Still the leading cause of death worldwide, heart disease challenges researchers, clinicians, and patients alike. Each day, thousands of patients and their doctors make decisions about coronary angioplasty and bypass surgery. In Broken Hearts David S. Jones sheds light on the nature and quality of those decisions. He describes the debates over what causes heart attacks and the efforts to understand such unforeseen complications of cardiac surgery as depression, mental fog, and stroke. Why do doctors and patients overestimate the effectiveness and underestimate the dangers of medical interventions, especially when doing so may lead to the overuse of medical therapies? To answer this question, Jones explores the history of cardiology and cardiac surgery in the United States and probes the ambiguities and inconsistencies in medical decision making. Based on extensive reviews of medical literature and archives, this historical perspective on medical decision making and risk highlights personal, professional, and community outcomes.

  asjia o'neal heart surgery: Getting Cracked Jon Frazier, 2020-12-28 Are you or someone you know having open heart surgery? Getting Cracked is a humorous and informative story about preparing for an open heart surgical procedure. While many people have questions about how to prepare for open heart surgery, very few surgeons have had the surgery themselves to explain what really happens to a patient's body during and after surgery. This story is told through the author's eyes. The author not only works in surgery administering anesthesia for a living, but actually had an open heart surgery himself. This book walks patients and families through preparation, the surgical procedure, and what to expect when you get home from the hospital. The author describes in laymen terms the details of what will happen to the patient's body in an easy-to-read format and funny tone. If you are looking for a book to help you understand how to prepare for surgery, the surgical process itself, or just find a way to feel more comfortable with the ordeal a family member is embarking upon, this book is for you.

  asjia o'neal heart surgery: All about Heart Bypass Surgery R. C. S. Trahair, 2002 This book is for people who are about to have heart bypass surgery, those who have just been through the ordeal, and those who are to care for a bypass patient. Based on the experience of fourteen informants, the book tells of life before the operation, the decision to have heart bypasssurgery, preparation for hospital life, and recovery afterwards. It blends the patient's widely differing experiences with the surgeon's expectations, advice and technical demands, and the work of nurses, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and other paramedical experts in the recovery fromheart surgery. Most people are shocked the the thought that they must have heart bypass surgery. While some feel resigned to their fate, others put on a heroic front; sadness engulfs a few, others are relieved to know what their ailment is, and some become angry. Most want to know why. As a rule, the cost ofsurgery and hospitalisation is not important to them. They want to know if they are going to survive. Although there are signs and warnings of heart trouble, it seems that rarely do most people have much time to prepare for a heart bypass operation, and to make decisions about which surgeons and hospitals to employ. The bypass operation itself is major surgery. It is such a shocking surgicalprocedure that as one of the younger informants said, you wouldn't want to know about it, but curiously enough the operation is not as frightening as you might think. Why? The decision to operate is swift, clear, and out of your hands; as one woman informant observed years later, Whatever goeson, it's better than the alternative! This book helps patients prepare for the operation and for the recovery by sharing the experiences of others, and by outlining the professional help and personal care that are readily available when required.

  asjia o'neal heart surgery: Atlas of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Constantine Mavroudis, Carl Backer, 2015-09-14 The raison d’etre for a new atlas of congenital heart surgery is based on the reality that the specialty has undergone numerous changes in the last few years resulting in improved techniques and new operations. The sheer number of new procedures and the required attendant technical skills to successfully complete an operation has become a challenge to master, especially for residents who are pursuing a career in congenital heart surgery. While the techniques that we are espousing are mostly our own, there is a great deal of similarity amongst international centers owing to the influence of video presentations, manuscript publications, and chapter reviews. We therefore believe that the techniques that are illustrated in this atlas are likely to be similar to the techniques that are taught worldwide to residents and fellows. The atlas is organized generally by diseases and procedures pertaining thereto. Two general sections involve cannulation techniques and palliative procedures, respectively. A special section depicts difficult problems in the form of clinical vignettes that may arise during cardiopulmonary bypass such as: decreased venous return, undiagnosed patent ductus arteriosus, and technical errors leading to hemodynamic complications. The reader is instructed to apply measures that will lead to resolution of these problems. We have chosen procedures, which cover the breadth of congenital heart surgery. While perhaps not totally inclusive, the reader will find the greater majority of congenital heart procedures illustrated and explained in this text.​
