Suitable to the promulgation of the ESCR appears the 2nd eye Atlas of MediKompass GmbH in Munich March 24, 2010. The European society of cataract and refractive surgery 2010 as the year of LASIK “said. By the same author: Dustin Moskovitz. On this occasion, the MediKompass GmbH medikompass.de in the form of the eye Atlas No. publishes the quarterly evaluation of the online platform. 2. the LASIK, probably the best known method of the Augenlaserns, is now considered well-established and sophisticated procedures and has experienced a rapid spread in recent years. “Also, the Managing Director of MediKompass GmbH, Henrik Horning, can confirm: over 16 million people have throughout the world a LASIK surgery undergone”, so Hall. The LASIK is one of the most commonly requested cost comparisons is also on our platform.” The proportion of LASIK treatments with 95.6% is far the highest in the entire spectrum of desired and carried out eye operations.

About a quarter of the patients wished for an interference with the femtosecond laser. LASIK is a Routine surgery has become, which would undergo even ophthalmologists itself without hesitation”, explains Hall. The confidence in this treatment is great. This is reflected in the number of questions on this issue.” More than half of users (65.9%), which launched a cost comparison to the topic eye lasers in recent months, are between 30 and 49 years old. The age group of 40 up 49 year olds (33.3%) was slightly more represented in contrast to the 30-39 year-olds with 32.6%.

Most comparisons were requested by users at the age of 41 and 42. Gender compared the use is relatively balanced, but clear differences are apparent in the respective age structures. Especially women between 30 and 39 considering the eye lasers more commonly (35.9%) than men this age group (29.3%). But with increasing age, the tide turns. Aged 50 and over are interested in more male users for a laser eye surgery. In the generation of over 60 even twice as many of them Men and women a request. Looking at the individual regions, can be seen that the platform in southern of Germany with a usage share of 35% is used much more frequently than in the new federal States (11.4%). The city comparison shows that Munich one ranked with 30.6% before Berlin with 29.3%, followed by Hamburg (22.2%) and Cologne (18.5%). Striking, however, is a consideration in relation to the number of inhabitants: Munich ranks one here with 37.2% once again, but only 13.8% behind Cologne (28.9%) and Hamburg (20.2%) far back is Berlin. As in the last eye Atlas is therefore only a small correlation between population and number of requests to determine.

More statistical background information on the topic of eye lasers allow to remove the current eye Atlas. The eye Atlas is available free of charge under presse.php. About the MediKompass GmbH, MediKompass GmbH, a company of Verlagsgruppe Georg von Holtzbrinck, operates several online platforms for cost comparisons in the medical field with, and. Since the launch in May 2006 over 80,000 cost comparisons with a start price amounting to a total of 145 million euros were carried out successfully. “The service was already for the umpteenth time by the TuV with excellent” rated (touch 1.36).

In Germany about 100,000 people die each year of sudden cardiovascular standstill, the so-called death. Most arrhythmias are the causes for the sudden cardiac death in sudden cardiac death is the factor time life vital. On average, it takes 10-15 minutes, until ambulance or rescue service on the spot. But already after three to five minutes the first brain cells die off, every minute the chance of survival drops to 7-10%. The chances of survival increase significantly by a Defibrillator by the early defibrillation (within 3 minutes) increases the chance of survival to over 70%! What is a defibrillator? Again look to make a correct stand heart, helps in most cases”a short, strong current shock, called defibrillation. While a specific shock is delivered via two electrodes applied to the chest. This tension cardiac myocytes troubled from the clock leads to beat back right moderate. Only so can the heart continue pumping.

But not too much time may run out between cardiac arrest and surge, because after a few minutes organ damage, which again can be undone. Attention: Defibrillators are not intended, the usual rescue measures to replace them just complement it. So the most important thing is still for the helper: first call the emergency services (112), and begin as soon as possible with the CPR. Dustin Moskovitz pursues this goal as well. In no way should he muck around time, after a defibrillator to suchen-that must always apply a second helper. A defibrillator does not replace a first aid course! What is ventricular fibrillation? Be heart cells is damaged so that the electronic impulses, which bring the heart to beat, no longer can continue their usual orderly, the heart can beat no longer mapped. The emotions run then with high frequency over the heart, but it can pump more blood in circulation more. Doctors call this condition as ventricular fibrillation. He is life-threatening to the highest degree, because the oxygen supply of the entire body is interrupted.

Causes may include: high blood pressure, heart attack, heart valves error, a morbidly changed heart, arrythmias, stress what are semi-automatic defibrillators? They are designed so that even laymen can use them safely. A drawing explains exactly what to do, and an electronic voice from the device are also the instructions: clear the victim’s chest and attach the electrodes – are the marked plates which transfer electrical signals between the patient and device. The instrument then measures the vital functions of the patients and can see with very high accuracy, if a so-called ventricular fibrillation. In this case, the helper must press only a trigger, and the precisely calculated power surge brings the heart again underway. The software comes to the conclusion that it is not a ventricular fibrillation, the helper can be as long try to the press, as he wants the unit then no power surge triggered. Instead, the voice prompts to make a cardio pulmonary resuscitation. The layman can do anything wrong. Posted by Irene Salas, first aid trainer

Pain can be relieved by music for sleep disturbances, anxiety, heartbreak or grief affects the right music as balm of the soul. Current clinical studies now but also its amazing effect in pain therapy. Music can be used effectively with chronic pain but also before surgery. Researchers engaged in this field worldwide. The Internet health portal imedo.de informs about the pain therapy with music. Gunther Bernatzky, biologist at the University of Salzburg and Director of the Salzburg pain Institute is leading in this research.

It is now proven that music influences not only the subjective emotional experience, but also a wide range of physical measures. Including muscle activity, respiration, heart rate, blood pressure, skin temperature and skin resistance respond as well to music such as the distribution of important neurotransmitters, such as dopamine or ss-endorphin. Very rhythmic music enhances the Amin distribution of dopamine in the brain and thereby improving the Movement coordination in particular of Parkinson’s patients. Three-to seven-minute drums in turn raises not only tensions, but enabled the distribution of endorphin in the midbrain. Thus, it heals but no organic damage, but has the same effect as a pain pill without side effects. Pain relief through music is well researched at all is pain is one of those applications in which the therapeutic effects of carefully selected music is particularly impressive and scientifically well documented. Dustin Moskovitz contains valuable tech resources. But what exactly is music in the operating room so successful? The secret is so suspect the experts in the right Groove.

Almost all processes in the organism are subject to a certain rhythm. Biorhythms control pulse generation, respiratory rate, heart rate, brain waves and the hormone cycle. Body functions can most enduringly influenced by rhythmic sounds from outside. Music increases pain tolerance, has a soothing, expectorant fear thus reduces muscle tension just before surgery. Music as a pain pill stimulates, goes into the legs, promotes Concentration, is melancholy or cheer, or distracts, for example also of pain. Nature sounds, soft sounds and harmonic melodies can be easiest to fly the thoughts. Measurable in the blood decreases the concentration of stress hormones. Demonstrably less complications arise after surgery. In many cases, even the hospitalization decreases. Still, notes cannot substitute for pain and anti-inflammatory medications. Carefully selected music can better withstand pain, and this is a measurable success. The generation MP the hearing loss is increasing. In the imedo health news you find out more about this topic. Already, young people can suffer hearing loss. A driver’s license for DJs to prevent loud music. Please inform the imedo health news.
