Incarcerated Femoral Hernia, Joseph L. Ponka

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Careful analysis of 12 complicated cases of incarcerated femoral hernia gives clues toward the correct diagnosis of this problem. Knowledge of the symptoms can prevent dangerous delays in undertaking urgently-needed surgical repair. The unique anatomy involved requires careful clinical examination but surgery should not await x-ray studies.

Osteoid Seams And Resorption Spaces In Standard Samples Of Human 6th And 11th Ribs, F. Santoro, H. M. Frost

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Studies of 6th and 11th rib samples taken at autopsy from 22 adults who had been seriously ill before death were compared, and it is provisionally concluded that the average number of bone forming and resorbing centers in a Unit amount of compacta are similar in each sampling site. More material on this continuing study of bone dynamics is scheduled for future issue of the MEDICAL JOURNAL.

Art In Psychotherapy, Robert R. Schopbach

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

Art is a tool too often neglected in psychotherapy. A careful study of a patient's drawings will provide information concerning diagnosis, dynamics, and progress. If, in addition, the patient explains and elaborates upon the content and symbolism, the drawings become excellent psychotherapeutic devices providing an entry into the patient's unconscious.

Accidental Ingestion Of Anticoagulant Resulting In A Severe Hemorrhagic Diathesis, R. W. Monto, E. R. Williams, T. H. Greidanus, E. J. Van Slyck

Henry Ford Hospital Medical Journal

This case history of a 45-year-old woman, who had been issued Dicumarol instead of Dronactin in a pharmacy-filled prescription, describes an emergency therapeutic program to control hemorrhage with vitamin K, adrenal corticosteroids, and the giving of fresh blood. In a patient with a bleeding disorder, unintentional ingestion of oral anticoagulants is to be suspected if the prothrombin time is markedly elevated, if the patient has been previotisly treated with an oral anticoagulant, or is engaged in a medical or paramedical occupation. Diagnosis is confirmed by finding a deficiency of factors II, VII, IV, and X. and by the presence of …

A Method To Determine Curved Surface Laminagraphic Width And Position In Panoral Radiography Utilizing The Panorex X-Ray Unit, Gary G. Morikone

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Although the Panorex X-ray unit has been in existence for almost a decade, no information is publicly available relative to the determination of its laminagraphic slice width or position.

In order to utilize the machine most effectively as a research tool, it seems imperative that this width and position be established.

For the purpose of establishing the spatial relationship within the exposure mechanism, the two eccentric rotational axes were first located. Utilizing a positioning device, ten panoral radiographs of a plastic working dummy with metallic implants were exposed at varying exposure readings. The resultant radiographs, revealing varying degrees of accuracy …

An Anthropometric Study Of The Face And Dentition Of The Pima Indian Population At The Stewart Indian School, Carson City, Nevada, Wilmonte Lee Penner

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Study casts and cephalograms were obtained on 18 female and 21 male Pima Indian students from the Stewart Indian Boarding School, Carson City, Nevada. Dentitional characteristics were assessed both clinically and by study casts. Cranio-facial analyses were performed by utilizing the skeletal and denture pattern variables suggested by the Downs and Riedel cephalometric analyses.

The purpose of this study was two-fold: (1) to determine the extent to which the Pima conforms to the Mongoloid master pattern, and (2) to test whether or not significant differences exist between the Pima and other Mongoloid groups which would allow discrimination.

The results of …

Documentation Of Tooth Movement Utilizing Panoral Radiography, Robert M. Hauck

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Tooth movement has been documented utilizing the panoral radiograph. A positioning device, attached to the XRM Panorex X-Ray machine, was the means of patient orientation for the necessary radiographs required during the course of this investigation.

A group of ten beginning orthodontic patients, each requiring cuspid retraction, was chosen for evaluation of tooth position. Three contemporary retraction devices were employed during the course of this study. Tooth position was documented by use of panoral radiography during the retraction of these teeth.

The panoral radiographs were taken at monthly intervals over a period of eleven months for each patient. Composite tracings …

Two Attempted Investigations Into The Complexities Of Staphylococcal Disease, Harriet M. Sands

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Two investigations were attempted to add insight into the multiple problems related to staphylococcal infections. A comparison study was made of the hospital expenses of a group of hospitalized patients whose apparently clean surgical wounds developed staphylococci, and a comparable group whose surgical wounds healed without infection.

A review of approximately one hundred medical records for the pilot study revealed three instances of staphylococcal infection in apparently clean surgical wounds. The three patients required 239 days of hospitalization at a total hospital cost of $13,702.11. The three comparable patients whose surgical wounds remained clean required 27 days hospitalization at a …
