推薦這本書,一個心髒外科醫生的自傳。
評分we were adrenaline junkies living on a continuous high, craving action. sleep deprivation underpins the psychopathy of the surgical mind - immunity to stress, an ability to take risks , the loss of empathy.
評分3.5星,讀原著對外科詞匯還是有點囫圇,但是還是好看的
評分醫學人文類書籍,今年看過最好的書,集醫學知識、種族、人文、生活等元素為一體。特彆是youtube上可以找到相關醫學案例的采訪,增加瞭閱讀體驗,太精彩瞭!
評分作者是Pubmed一搜300+,隨便一篇就是心髒頂刊的業界大佬。末期病人的故事往往都很動人。腫瘤目前仍沒有可觀的治療方法。但是心衰的病人真的是越來越有希望瞭。盡管我們國傢依然走在歐美的二十年之後(書中96年就開始做人工泵瞭,而我們現在的兩個所謂國産泵還依然在臨床試驗)。就算心髒停止瞭跳動,神奇的人類與科技仍然可以挽救生命。Indefinitely pulsatile。但是本書對非心髒相關專業的人都略有不友好,建議不是超有信心的朋友還是讀中文版,專業詞匯著實有點略多。我是建立在體外循環專業的基礎上,且對各種泵還略有瞭解,超級認真的讀下去還蠻有滋味。
Steve Westaby is a celebrated world-famous heart surgeon who is renowned for being the first surgeon in history to fit a patient with a new type of artificial heart. During his 35-year career as a surgeon he worked at several of the UK’s top hospitals and performed over 11,000 heart operations. He won the Ray C. Fish Award for Scientific Achievement (2004). In 2004 Steve Westaby was featured in the BBC documentary Your Life in Their Hands, which is a long-running series on the subject of surgery.
An incredible memoir from one of the world’s most eminent heart surgeons and some of the most remarkable and poignant cases he’s worked on.
Grim Reaper sits on the heart surgeon’s shoulder. A slip of the hand and life ebbs away.
The balance between life and death is so delicate, and the heart surgeon walks that rope between the two. In the operating room there is no time for doubt. It is flesh, blood, rib-retractors and pumping the vital organ with your bare hand to squeeze the life back into it. An off-day can have dire consequences – this job has a steep learning curve, and the cost is measured in human life. Cardiac surgery is not for the faint of heart.
Professor Stephen Westaby took chances and pushed the boundaries of heart surgery. He saved hundreds of lives over the course of a thirty-five year career and now, in his astounding memoir, Westaby details some of his most remarkable and poignant cases – such as the baby who had suffered multiple heart attacks by six months old, a woman who lived the nightmare of locked-in syndrome, and a man whose life was powered by a battery for eight years.
A powerful, important and incredibly moving book, Fragile Lives offers an exceptional insight into the exhilarating and sometimes tragic world of heart surgery, and how it feels to hold someone’s life in your hands.
这是一本比较薄的书,薄的是其仅200多页的篇幅,然而这又是一本极其厚的书,厚的是每一个案例均倾注着作者丰富的学识、经验和努力,每一个故事中的主角,都在生与死之间徘徊。 由于这是关于心脏疾病的故事,当看到作者描述的每一次病症以及手术过程,都会有一种“揪心”的感觉...
評分终于动手开始写这本书的读后感啦,这件事在我的To do list上面待了三天了。主要是写这个读后感有一些些压力,自己的感想丰富而零碎,怕自己没记录周全;作为一个医学生的自己又对其中的一些专业知识有一些自己的思考。所以总体而言,这篇读后感是略带专业性的,充满理性的,又...
評分作为医学生的自己也有那么一点感触吧 。 有一章节狄更斯的话让我印象深刻:“拥有一颗永不变硬的心,永不厌烦的脾气,一双手触碰人时永远不会伤害别人。”医学是需要温度的,看那些真正的医学大家,内心深处都是特别善良的人啊,不然怎么可以牺牲自己那么多的光阴,青春,家庭...
評分有如读一本心外入门手册。这样一本珍贵的书一定值得在读完后留下些什么,也值得在文字之外多了解些什么。 一、一些视频参考 1. Heart-lung machine心肺机。由体外系统接替心肺功能,使用高钾溶液停搏心脏后进行手术。 视频参考: 心肺机原理 2. 书中提到的部分案例在作者的TED ...
