Parsons, Carolyn Merideth Taylor, 2008 Morbid obesity, also known as clinically severe obesity, is an abnormal obesity defined as the condition of having body weight over 100 pounds over an ideal body weight or having a body mass index of 40 or higher. The term reflects the fact that this kind of obesity becomes associated with significant morbidity by increasing the risk of various obesity-related medical conditions.

| research on anesthetized patients in surgery found that: Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic Model of Drugs and Their Pharmacokinetic Differences between Normal and Disease States Zipeng Gong, Ling Ye, Guo Ma, Kaustubh Kulkarni , Yan-Fang Xian, 2024-08-14 In the main frame of the above research topic, 16 contributions have been published including but not limited to the comparative pharmacokinetics between normal and disease status, the changes in the expression and function of drug-metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters in disease status and their related regulatory mechanisms, ADME/toxicity of drugs as well as their regulation, drug-drug interactions mediated by nuclear receptors, transporters and metabolic enzymes based on the methods and techniques of pharmacokinetics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics. However , the pharmacokinetic study is not only crucial in the development of new drugs, but also the study of pharmacokinetic-pharmacokinetic(PK-PD) model plays an important role in the process of new drug development. PK-PD model can reveal the internal relationship between drug concentration and effect, help to understand the dynamic characteristics of the drug action site in vivo and deduce the action site producing effect and drug concentration at the action site, which enables researchers to recognize the comprehensive characteristics of drug PK and PD processes in vivo. However, preclinical pharmacokinetic data are mainly derived from healthy animals, which is unreasonable. On the one hand, patients are the final consumers of drugs because drugs are mainly used to treat patients with diseases. On the other hand, whether the body is in a pathological state and the severity of the disease have different effects on the ADMEof drugs, which is closely related to whether the clinical drug is safe and effective. Therefore, studying the pharmacokinetics and PK-PD model in disease states is more meaningful and clinically relevant. |

| research on anesthetized patients in surgery found that: The Multiple Inert Gas Elimination Technique (MIGET) Susan R. Hopkins, Peter D. Wagner, 2017-12-01 The Multiple Inert Gas Elimination Technique (MIGET) is a complex methodology involving specialized gas chromatography and sophisticated mathematics developed in the early 1970’s. Essentially, nobody possesses knowledge of all its elements except for its original developers, and while some practical and theoretical aspects have been published over the years, none have included the level of detail that would be necessary for a potential user to adopt and understand the technique easily. This book is unique in providing a highly detailed, comprehensive technical description of the theory and practice underlying the MIGET to help potential users set up the method and solve problems they may encounter. But it is much more than a reference manual – it is a substantial physiological and mathematical treatise in its own right. It also has a wide applicability – there is extensive discussion of the common biological problem of quantitative inference. The authors took measured whole-lung gas exchange variables, and used mathematical procedures to infer the distribution of ventilation and blood flow from this data. In so doing, they developed novel approaches to answer the question: What are the limits to what can be concluded when inferring the inner workings from the “black box” behavior of a system? The book details the approaches developed, which can be generalized to other similar distributed functions within tissues and organs. They involve engineering approaches such as linear and quadratic programming, and uniquely use mathematical tools with biological constraints to obtain as much information as possible about a “black box” system. Lastly, the book summarizes the hundreds of research papers published by a number of groups over the decades in a way never before attempted in order to marshal the world’s literature on the topic and to provide in one place the wealth of important discoveries, both physiological a nd clinical, enabled by the technique. |

It might be considered a routine medical procedure, but for most of us, it is anything from unpleasant to traumatic. In Exposed, noted historian Wendy Kline uncovers the procedure’s fascinating—and often disturbing—history. From gynecological research on enslaved women’s bodies to nonconsensual practice on anesthetized patients, the pelvic exam as we know it today carries the burden of its sordid past. Its story is one of pain and pleasure, life-saving discoveries and heartbreaking encounters, questionable procedures and triumphant breakthroughs. Drawing on previously unpublished archival sources, along with interviews with patients, providers, and activists, Kline traces key moments and movements in gynecological history, from the surgeons of the nineteenth century to the OB/GYNs of today. This powerful book reminds us that the pelvic exam is has never been “just” a medical procedure, and that we can no longer afford to let the pelvic exam remain unexamined. |
| research on anesthetized patients in surgery found that: Pain and Prejudice Gabrielle Jackson, 2021-03-08 “[A] powerful account of the sexism cooked into medical care ... will motivate readers to advocate for themselves.”—Publishers Weekly STARRED Review A groundbreaking and feminist work of investigative reporting: Explains why women experience healthcare differently than men Shares the author’s journey of fighting for an endometriosis diagnosis In Pain and Prejudice, acclaimed investigative reporter Gabrielle Jackson takes readers behind the scenes of doctor’s offices, pharmaceutical companies, and research labs to show that—at nearly every level of healthcare—men’s health claims are treated as default, whereas women’s are often viewed as a-typical, exaggerated, and even completely fabricated. The impacts of this bias? Women are losing time, money, and their lives trying to navigate a healthcare system designed for men. Almost all medical research today is performed on men or male mice, making most treatments tailored to male bodies only. Even conditions that are overwhelmingly more common in women, such as chronic pain, are researched on mostly male bodies. Doctors and researchers who do specialize in women’s healthcare are penalized financially, as procedures performed on men pay higher. Meanwhile, women are reporting feeling ignored and dismissed at their doctor’s offices on a regular basis. Jackson interweaves these and more stunning revelations in the book with her own story of suffering from endometriosis, a condition that affects up to 20% of American women but is poorly understood and frequently misdiagnosed. She also includes an up-to-the-minute epilogue on the ways that Covid-19 are impacting women in different and sometimes more long-lasting ways than men. A rich combination of journalism and personal narrative, Pain and Prejudice reveals a dangerously flawed system and offers solutions for a safer, more equitable future. |
