THE HISTORY OF MODERN MEDICINE AND SURGERY (The History of Modern Medicine and Surgery):
INTRODUCTION (Introduction):
USEFUL TERMINOLOGIES:
ACUTE ILLNESS
Acute illness which has severe symptoms but is of short duration. It is also recovered in a short time.
cronic illness
These diseases occur over a long period of time. Due to this disease, a person’s ability to function gradually decreases. Which usually causes gradual changes in the body throughout life and results in a very serious illness and these diseases are usually irreversible (cannot be cured). Chronic diseases last for a long time and these diseases remain the same throughout a person’s life.
ACUTE INFLAMMATION (Acute Inflammation)
Acute inflammation is characterized by local vascular and exudative changes and usually lasts less than two weeks. The process of infection in any part of the body is called inflammation.
In this, redness, swelling, pain, and warmth (warmth) are seen in the inflamed part of the body. The main cause of inflammation in the body is pathogenic microorganisms.
ASEPSIS
Asepticity is the state of being free from disease-causing microorganisms. (free from disease producing microorganisms).
DIESEASE
Disease is a condition in which the health of the body deteriorates. The health of a person does not remain normal, there are changes in the physiological functions of the human body. A person is unable to perform certain tasks and the vital functions of his body also deteriorate. Diseases are mainly caused by pathogenic microorganisms.
HEALTH
Health can be defined as complete physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being, not merely an absence of disease and infirmity. (not merely the absence of disease or infirmity).
ILLNESS
People’s efficiency decreases during illness. People are unable to maintain any kind of physical and emotional balance and due to this, the efficiency of the person is disrupted.
INFECTON (Infection)
When any microorganism enters the body of a person and grows and multiplies (increases in number) and causes disease, it is called an infection.
MODE OF TRANSMISSION
This is a type of transfer method in which microorganisms are carried from one place to another. Generally, the way in which a disease spreads is called the mode of transmission. For example. Direct contact, droplets etc.
PORTAL OF EXIT
This is a place in the body where microorganisms in the body have a way to exit. E.g. Through urine and stool, through nose and oral cavity etc.
PORTAL OF ENTRY
This is the place in the body from where a microorganism enters the body of the host. For example, through the nose, oral cavity, broken skin and mucous membranes, microorganisms enter the body and spread the disease.
Reservoir
This is a place where any microorganism grows and develops. Multiplication can occur.
susceptible host
This is such a person That if microorganisms enter the person, they cannot fight them. Therefore, microorganisms develop and multiply (increase) and due to this, diseases occur and these people cannot resist those microorganisms.
Terminal illness
Terminal illness is a type of illness or disease that cannot be cured. It is fatal in which a person does not have a chance to live their life.
Trends
A trend is a trend in a certain direction. Changes or amendments to any rule. New developments in any field are called trends.
Wound
Wound occurs in the body in which A breakdown or cut occurs in the continuity of the body’s cells, tissues and structures. This breakdown is caused by any kind of physical injury, internal or external, and is called a wound.
This unit includes the following topics.
a. BRIEF HISTORY OF EVOLUTION OF MODERN MEDICINE AND SURGERY.
b. THEORY OF ILLNESS AND ITS CAUSATION – ILLNESS AS HUMAN EXPERIENCE.
c. REVIEW OF NURSING PROCESS AND NURSING CARE PLAN.
A) BREIF HISTORY OF EVOLUTION OF MORDEN MEDICINE π AND SURGERY (History of the evolution of medical and surgical procedures).
Medical surgical nursing:
When any patient comes to the hospital for any kind of The treatment of illness, inflammation or disease conditions that are cured using medicines is called the Medicine Branch, and when the condition cannot be treated through medical treatment and those people require surgical treatment (surgery), it is called the Surgical Branch. Thus, any patient is cared for through the use of medicine and surgery.
In these two branches, the care of a patient through the use of different types of nursing care is called Medical Surgical Nursing.
Evolution of modern medicine and surgery:
The history of medical science is considered as a part of the history of civilization. It logically began in Mesopotamia.
MEDICINE AND SURGERY IN THE ANCIENT WORLD:
ANCIENT EGYPT MEDICINE π:
Ancient Greek medicine
Roman medicine π (Roman drugs)
Roman Empire Often Greek, Galen became a famous doctor during Roman times.
Galen believed in the theory of the four senses and also believed in the treatment of disease.
So if a patient had a cold, Galen would give him a hot substance like pepper.
The Romans suggested that small animals that caused the disease were carried through the air and entered through the nose and mouth. entered the body.
The Romans were great engineers and they created a public health system.
The Romans also knew that dirt promoted disease. They appreciated the importance of cleanliness. They made sponges to make clean water in towns.
Medicine in middle age:
Medicine flourished in the Islamic world.
In the 10th century, known as Al-Razi (Razez in the West), the Western doctor of this name was the first to distinguish between smallpox and measles. Abuqasis was the first to write about hemophilia.
Muslims established many hospitals and also discovered distillation and elixir. (purifying substances by changing them directly from a solid to a vapor without passing through a liquid state) .
In the Middle Ages, only monasteries had cleanliness. Streams provide clean water. The dirty water was used to clean the toilets which were in separate rooms.
Medicine in 16 th century:
Girolamo Fricastoro suggested that infectious diseases are caused by disease spores that are carried by the wind (droplets) or transmitted (spread) by touch (direct contact).
Leonardo da Vinci dissected the human body and made accurate drawings of what he saw, another great surgeon was Ambroise Pare.
In the 16th century, a surgeon applied oil to a wound. He made a mixture of egg whites, rose oil, and turpentine and found that it worked better than oil.
He also designed artificial limbs. In 1513, Eucarius Rosali published a book on childbirth, The Rosen Garden.
In 1540, an English translation titled The Birth of Mankind was published, which became a standard text. However, midwives were women. Syphilis was common in the 16th century.
17th century Medicine (Medicine in 17th century):
An Italian named Centorio invented the medical thermometer.
In 1628, William Harvey discovered how blood circulates around the body. Harvey realized that the heart is a pump that pumps blood out every time it contracts.
Blood circulates around the body. Harvey then estimated how much blood is pumped each time.
Finally, in 1683, Antoine Leuven I observed microorganisms.
Doctors discovered that the bark of the cinchona tree treated malaria because it contained quinine.
18 th century Medicine (Medicine in 18 th century):
June Hunter invented tracheostomy.
Founded the treatment for scurvy by giving lemon juice.
Edward Zener found the smallpox vaccine.
19th century medicine (Medicine in 19th century):
Renlin invented the stethoscope.
Louis Pasteur developed a vaccine for rabies.
A vaccine for typhoid was also discovered. Rubber gloves were first used in surgery in 1890.
The banner show was greatly improved by Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole.
who cared for soldiers during the Crimean War of 1854.
In the 19th century Great Ormond Street and Hospitals were established.
In 1864, Jean Henry Dunant founded the International Red Cross.
Women were allowed to become doctors in Britain from 1865.
20 th century Medicine (Medicine in 20 th century):
Evolution of surgery:
B) THEORY OF ILLNESS AND ITS CAUSATION – ILLNESS AS HUMAN EXPERIENCE.
Concept of Illness.
Two Types of illness (There are two types of illness).
1) Acute illness (Acute Ilnesh)
2) chronic illness
1. Acute illness
This illness occurs suddenly. Due to this illness, the ability of a person to work decreases. In this illness, the speed of development of symptoms is very high and it occurs in a short period of time. These diseases are reversible (curable).
2. cronic illness
These illnesses occur over a long period of time. Due to this illness, a person’s ability to work gradually decreases. Which usually causes gradual changes in the body throughout life and results in very serious illnesses, and these illnesses are usually irreversible (cannot be cured). Chronic diseases last for a long time and these diseases remain the same throughout a person’s life.
concept of disease:
Disease is any disturbance in the normal functioning of the body. These diseases have a specific cause and their symptoms are mainly recognizable.
According to the Oxford English Dictionary Disease is defined as a condition of a part or organ of the body in which its functions are altered and from an economic point of view, it is defined as a disorder of the human life system with the environment of the disease.
Disease is a condition in which the health of the body is impaired. Due to this health, the human body cannot perform any important function, that is, its efficiency is reduced.
From the perspective of sociology Disease is considered as a social phenomenon. Which occurs in all societies and is defined in the context of a certain cultural group prevalent in the society. The simplest definition is that disease is the opposite of health which is any change from the normal functioning or state of complete physical or mental well-being because health and disease are mutually opposite conditions.
Who has defined health but not disease. The reason for this is that diseases have many sets of symptoms ranging from subclinical cases to severe overt illness. Some diseases start acutely. For example, food poisoning and some come on suddenly, for example, mental illness, arthritis, etc.
Some diseases have a carrier state. In which a person remains outwardly healthy and can infect others, for example, typhoid fever.
In some cases, a single organism can cause more than one disease. For example, streptococcus bacteria are present and how long they last. While some diseases can cause many illnesses, it is easy to determine the disease, but in many diseases, there is a border between normal and abnormal, like diseases like diabetes and hypertension. The final outcome of the disease is variable.
Causes of disease
Disease is an abnormal condition that affects the body of an organism. It has been interpreted many times. It is a clinical condition associated with specific symptoms and signs that can be caused by it. It can be caused by external factors such as infectious diseases or it can also be caused by internal problems.
causes of disease
1)Mechanical causes.
2)Biological causes.
3) Normative causes.
4)Nutritional causes.
5) Environmental Causes.
1)Mechanical causes
This causes damage to the structure of the body and any defect in the normal function of the body causes disease. For example. Injury, sprain, fracture etc.
2)Biological causes
Biological causes also affect the functioning of the body and result in genetic defects, agent infestation (organism), and infection (infection), changes in the immune system and changes in the secretion of normal organs.
3)Normative causes (normal Causes)
Common causes are psychological, but they involve the mind and body response (body-mind relationship). So due to these reasons, physical and mental problems arise.
4)Nutritional Causes
In developing countries, the main cause of diseases is due to the lack of nutrients and insufficient consumption of fruits and vegetables.
5)Environmental Causes
Environmental causes play a major role in the development of a person. Diseases include the following substances. Such as chemicals, acid aldehydes in cigarettes, allergens such as pollen, dust, mites, moisture, cat hair, etc. and pollutants produced by human activities such as sulfur oxides, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, or carbon dioxide, organic compounds carbon monoxide radioactive pollutants etc. and infectious agents such as viruses, bacteria etc. Many diseases are caused due to.
The causes of such diseases include mechanical causes, chemical causes, normative causes, nutritional causes, biological causes and environmental causes.
concepts of disease causation:
A. Germ theory of Disease:
Disease agent …… Man ……. Disease.
Epidemiological Triad:
Agent (disease producing factors),
Host,
And
environment.
Epidemiological tried (Epidemiological triad):
Agent
Host
Environment
Agent factor
Nutritional agent, mechanical agent, chemical agent, physical agent, social agent, absence or Insufficiency or Excess, Biological agents.
Other causes for disease producing
Other causes also include diseases like heart disease, cancer etc.
Disease is when any microorganism enters the body of the host and those microorganism multiply and multiply. It causes disease in the host’s body. Thus, the agent, host and epidemiological agent act as a model for disease transmission.
C) review of nursing process and nursing care plan (Review of nursing process and care plan).
Nursing process:
Objectives of Nursing Process (Primary Objectives of Nursing Process)).
steps of nursing process (steps of nursing process):
Assessment (Assessment).
In this, information is collected about the patient’s condition.
Diagnosis.
In this, the patient’s problems are identified.
Planning.
This involves setting goals for the patient and planning the care of nursing interventions.
Implementation.
In this, the planned nursing intervention is implemented.
Evaluation.
In this, it is assessed to check whether the set goals and expected outcomes have been achieved or not.
Nursing assessment:

Nursing assessment:
purposes of nursing assessment:
Type of assessment (Types of Assessment):
1.Initial assessment,
2.problem focused assessment,
3.Emergency assessment,
4)time lapsed assessment,
1.Initial assessment:
This assessment is done within a specific time frame after the patient is admitted.
2.problem focused assessment:
This assessment is done early to identify any specific problem.
For example, urination problem Intake output is assessed to know the status.
3.Emergency assessment (Emergency assessment):
This assessment is done immediately.
This assessment is done to do any physiological or psychological assessment.
This assessment is done to determine if the patient has a life It is done when there is a threatening condition.
Ex:=clients Airway, Breathing status, Circulation after cardiac arrest.
4)Time lapsed assessment:
This assessment is given to the client at a specific time. At that time, the client is assessed.
components of assessment:
1) collecting data,
2) organized data,
3) validating data,
4) recording data.
1)collecting data.
Collecting data is the process of gathering information about a client’s health status. In which the client’s health history, physical assessment, physical examination, laboratory tests, past history and present complaints of the patient are also collected in the data.
The collection of data should be systematic and continuous, no information should be forgotten.
The collection of data should be done keeping in mind the patient’s problem.
When collecting data, it should be descriptive, complete and accurate.
type of data
2 types of data
1) subjective data,
2)objective data.
1)subjective data: Subjective data includes symptoms.
Subjective data The client says it in his own words.
This information includes things like a client’s experience and emotions that he can only tell in his own words.
This information is also provided by family members and acquaintances of the client.
2)objective data: Objective data includes signs.
Objective data is collected by the health team Through observation, physical examination, laboratory tests, and measurements.
sources of data:
1)primary source:
2)secondary source:
Family and relatives:These people Knows the client well.
Health care team: Every member of the health care team is a potential source of information. They can identify and communicate data and also verify information from other sources.
method of data collection:
1) Observation:
In this, information is collected by observing any patient or patient.
2) Interview:
Interviews are used to obtain information, identify problems, and evaluate changes. ,Teaching, or providing support or counseling requires interviewing the client.
3)Examination:
This involves collecting systematic data to identify health problems using measurements, physical examination, techniques, and interpretation of laboratory results.
E.g. cephalocodel:=head to toe assessment,
body system approach:= examining all the body systems.
review of system approach:= In this, only the specific affected area has to be examined.
2)organisation:
In this, the nurse arranges the information collected from the client in a specific order.
In this, the nurse arranges the information collected from the client in a specific order.
3)validating data:
4)Recording data:
Nursing diagnosis:
E:=ETIOLOGY,
S:= SIGN AND SYMPTOMS /DEFINING CHARACTERISTIC.
PORPOSE OF NURSING DIAGNOSIS(Purpose of Nursing Diagnosis)::
characteristic of nursing diagnosis.
1) Nursing diagnosis should be clear and concise.
2) Nursing diagnosis should be made according to the client’s evidence.
3) This should be based on planning.
4) Nursing care should be provided properly.
Type of nursing diagnosis (Types of Nursing Diagnosis):
1) Actual diagnosis,
2)High risk diagnosis,
3)wellness diagnosis,
4)syndrome diagnosis.
1) Actual diagnosis:
This diagnosis is made when the nurse assesses the client. The diagnosis is based on the actual need of the client.
2)High risk diagnosis:
This problem describes a possible problem. It means that the client is more likely to develop the problem than other problems if they are in the same situation. It is a clinical judgment that the problem does not exist even if there are no signs and symptoms present.
Risk factors indicate that the problem is only likely to develop unless you intervene or do something about it.
For example, an obese classmate is undergoing hip replacement surgery so the nurse may make the following risk nursing diagnosis because the patient is on continuous bed rest.
3)wellness diagnosis :
In this, a diagnosis is made about any specific wellness.
4)syndrome diagnosis :
In this, a nursing diagnosis is made about the syndrome of symptoms.
Ex:= rape, Trauma, Syndrome.
statement of nursing diagnosis :
A nursing diagnosis statement has three parts.
1)problem,
2)Etiology,
3)definite characteristic .
1)problem:
In a problem, the client’s problems have to be stated and nursing diagnoses have to be made based on them.
Ex: knowledge deficit, Acute, Chronic, Ineffective, Altered, Decrease.
2)Etiology:
The etiology component of a nursing diagnosis identifies one or more causes of a health problem.
It guides the administration of nursing interventions.
It helps the nurse to provide individualized patient care because two patients may have the same problem but have different etiologies. may be.
3) Definite characteristic:
This involves the involvement of signs and symptoms of any problem. This includes subjective and objective data.
Ex:=fluid volume deficit related to decrease oral intake manifested by dry skin and mucus membrane.
2) risk for impaired skin integrity related to immobility manifested by redness on skin.
planning:
purposes of planning :
Types of planning (types of Planning):
1) Initial planning (initial planning)
2) ongoing planning (ongoing planning)
3) Discharge planning
1) Initial planning:
2) Ongoing planning:
3) Discharge planning:
Phases of planning:
Planning is the process by which a nurse plans the type of care to be provided to a patient.
1)setting priority (setting priorities).
2)determine goal and expected outcome. (Setting goals and expected outcomes).
3)selecting the nursing strategies. (Selecting nursing strategies).
4) developing nursing care plan. (Creating a nursing care plan).
1)setting priorities:
Setting priorities is a decision-making process in which the nurse inquires about the patient’s problems and determines them in order. Priority is given to the nursing care that needs to be provided first.
A)High priority:
High priority includes problems that, if not solved, will cause great harm to the patient and can cause serious harm to the patient.
Ex:=ineffective Airways clearance after surgery related to abdominal Incision.
In this, it is very important to clear the patient’s airway.
Airway clearance is therefore a high priority in making a nursing care plan to improve the patient’s breathing pattern.
B)intermediate priority:
In this priority, even if there is a slight delay in providing nursing care, it does not indicate any kind of emergency, but care is provided as early as possible.
Ex:=pain related to Surgical process.
This includes the client’s pain It may take a while to remove, but it does not require immediate intervention.
C)low interventions:
Low priority includes nursing care that does not cause much harm to the patient, and it may take a while to remove, but it does not involve any kind of emergency.
Example:=definitely knowledge related to smoking cessation program.
2)determine goal and expected outcome:
The next step is to determine the goals or expected outcome.
The nurse should determine her goals and expected outcomes for each nursing diagnosis. Determines the outcome.
Goals are the goals set during a nursing intervention according to which care is provided to the client.
Purpose of goal :
To evaluate the client’s progress.
To see how effective the nursing intervention is.
Type of goals:
A)short term goal.
B)long term goal.
A)short term goal: This short time goal is to achieve a task in a short time. It has to be achieved within about a week, which requires immediate nursing care.
2) long term goal: This long term goal is to achieve a long term task. Which is usually achieved over weeks and months and can be achieved even after the patient’s discharge.
Expected outcome:
In this, the patient’s behavior that we want to achieve through nursing care is the expected outcome.
3) Selecting a nursing intervention:
Nursing intervention is a client are designed to achieve outcomes and have a specific approach.
Components of Nursing Interventions:
There should be a set of nursing interventions to achieve each outcome.
To be an effective nursing intervention, nursing interventions should be clear and concise.
Nursing interventions should be designed in consultation with the client, family members, consultants, etc.
Where is the nursing intervention? It should be clearly written when and how long it will take to complete.
4) Development of nursing care plan:
Writing a nursing care plan is the initial step in planning.
After assessing and diagnosing the patient, the nurse prioritizes each nursing diagnosis and forms a nursing care plan.
How to write a nursing care plan.
column:1
