Okay, I am striving to become a surgeon, but I am not sure in what specialty I should.. well.. specialize! I am really stuck between two. They are OBG/Neonatal or Cardiac surgeons. Is it possible to do both? If not how can I decide which one to pick!? I adore both specialties so much. They are just so fascinating and I honestly cannot decide. If there are any cardiac or OBG/Neonatal surgeons out there can you please tell me about your job? I'm not asking how I can do it, because I can do it. I'm asking if its possible and I'm asking professionals. If you are not a professional then you have no business answering this question. Thank you very much.

New figures from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality show that patients admitted to US hospitals on weekends tend to experience significant delays in receiving major cardiac procedures.

In the cardiac cycle, blood pressure is at a maximum when the A.atria are contracting during systole. B.atria are contracting during diastole. C.ventricles are contracting during systole. D.ventricles are relaxing during systole. E.ventricles are relaxing during diastole.

My mom in law is 57 yrs of age. She suffers from type 2 diabetes and she recently learned that she is in complete heart failure. Maybe two weeks ago when she went to the doctor, it was told to us that her heart was weak. It was not pumping blood through her body the way that it should. In the weeks prior she had become swollen every over her body and the cause was unknown. She was admitted for that and then released with her being told to stay off of her feet as much as possible. She was even given a motorized wheel seat for her to continue to be mobile without putting pressure of her limbs to walk. On last Monday she went to the hospital for them to put a catheter in through her neck for something that had to do with her heart but upon arrival she had far too much fluid in her body and surrounding her heart to perform the surgery so they had to drain the fluid. She was admitted and the draining process began. By Tuesday she had filled 7 bags or so of fluid. When they connected another bag for drainage, the bag was filled with some black substance and blood. they had to immediately take her to surgery and she was taken to ICU after wards. In a day or so after the surgery we learned that her kidneys have completely close down and she was in renal failure. Dialysis was not possible because her heart was far too weak. At first when she urinated she was putting out a tiny amount of black fluid like substance that was somewhat thick. Now she is urinating as normal but the doctors are still saying her kidneys are not filtering as they should. They would not recommend her as a candidate for dialysis and if she were to go into cardiac arrest they are pretty much asking us to recommend not resucitating her and to let her die. She is medicated every the time which is causing her to either hallucinate or she starts talking about things that happened years ago. She can't filter the morphine they are giving her properly and they keep giving it to her. She still recognizes who we are individually but she is not altogether there. Sometimes she makes sense, sometimes she doesn't. We do not want to just accept that there is nothing else that they can do. If she is still urinating, is it possible for dialysis to work for her to prolong her life or would it be in vain? and if dialysis was not an option then how long would she linger like this before she passes away? She still has some kidney function in the way of urinating, just not filtering. What other options do we have? It seems the doctors want to just write her off.

So B-Blockers inhibit the synthesis of cAMP which in turn decreases Ca++ influx into the cell and decreases contractility (negative inotropic action). However by decreasing the rate of conduction through the AV node + blocking B1 stimulation, the HR slows which increases diastolic filling times and thereby theoretically increases contractility d/t Starling's Law. So which effect is more powerful, and is the net yield and increase or decrease in SV/SVI? I would wager that the SV/SVI actually increases to compensate for the decreasing rate to maintain cardiac output. Yeah? This is similar to how Dobutamine has a B2 action but also has an A1 action, leading to a net result of a slightly decreased SVR, but not as dramatically as previously thought because of it's mild A1 action.

P.S--I need serious answers pls

[Please give me a simple definition and description, along with answers to the other questions, and any other information you might think is useful.]

gasping for breath and unable to speak

he went to receive a stress test and the next week the doctor told him to go to receive an cardiac cauterization. this is because they found something wrong with an artery in the bottom of his heart in the back..he is going to the doctor to receive a cardiac cauterization or angiogram next week. however i am very concerned, there is heart problems in my family; however my grandfather has lived through them and he is now 92. anyway i am still really concerned for my dad..can i have any advice from someone who knows about hearts and those procedures? like what could happen? thanks!

My dad died approx two years ago as the result of intentional valium overdose, combined with alcohol. I am seeking physiological explanations for his death. Was it due to lowered blood pressure and heart failure? Would his lungs fill with fluid as the result of cardiac arrest? Thank you.

I am a 21 year old caucasian male. I am overweight, however up until a few years ago I was a multi sport athlete. I used to be a smoker, but quit icy turkey 7 months ago. Nobody on either side of my family tree has ever had heart disease or stroke. My normal resting blood pressure is around 112/68. I do not have diabetes, nor does anyone in my family. The only unknown is my cholesterol. I had a cardiac workup done a year and a half ago which involved an echo, a stress echo, and a 24-hour holter, and every three (according to the cardiologist) came back perfectly healthy. I have severe anxiety and have for quite a while, and it is every centered on an obsessive fear of heart attacks. No fewer than 10 different doctors have told me I have a healthy heart and should not be worried, but I still feel symptoms. Occasional severe left elbow pain, tingling in my left ring/middle finger, occasional shortness of breath. I know that these are every possible heart symptoms, so is it my anxiety giving my psychosomatic symptoms, or should I be worried?

My dad owes over 20,000 dollars in child support. I am now 20 years old and my brother is still underage. We need a new place to move and my mom makes around 1,200 a month, so my dad offered my mom a deal. His deal is to remove child support off of him and he'll help every month with the rent. I don't know if this is a good idea, but we really need to move, we don't want to but we have until this week to move. There are 2 problems. We don't trust my dad. And the second one is my mom doesn't have the time to be going to court and doing every that because she works and asked me if I can go and receive her the documents but I don't what to do. I think she wants to drop the child support debt because she is really desperate to receive help to support us. As of now, I am a full time student and I can't really help my mom with the rent and only work part time, but that isn't enough, I help pay for bills.. So overall, the question is can I be the one to go to court to drop the child support issue with my dad because my mom doesn't have the time, or is there a paper I can receive my mom to fill out and.. IDK do something? i forgot to mention that my dad doesnt pay child support and he changed his identity illegally and its difficult to prove my dad is someone else... trust me my dad will never pay (if my dad was below his real name the FBI would be after him.. so he stole his cousins identity and has been using it since 2000) btw, its even more difficult because my parents weren't born in this country and are not citizens, not even residents.. What can i do to take action? After reading some of the responses because I did ask the question over, i now have a new question, I want my dad to start paying, and I know where he lives. I also have another question. Even though my mom isn't a citizen, can I apply for housing? We really need help and my mom can't work so many hours, she is getting old and has a heart condition, the last time she had cardiac arrest was probably 6 years ago. So anyway, how can I receive help from child support service to receive my dad to pay, because he hasn't paid ANYTHING since I was 13. And can i qualify for housing? we have also tried some program that will help us find him because he kept moving and sending letters back to child support saying that he didn't live there
