摘要:

With the advent of 1976, a year in which our nation marks its 200th and Hospital Practice its 10th birthday, we introduce a new component into the journal—a section on“Clinical Strategy.”The objective of“Clinical Strategy”will very simply be provision of materials for continuing education in areas of prime importance to practitioners. Initially, the section will encompass two series of articles, one dealing with care of the geriatric patient, the other with care of the pediatric patient. The editorials that follow present the goals and preview the content of these series as they are envisioned and planned by their respective editors: Dr. William Reichel, Chairman of the Department of Family Practice at Franklin Square Hospital in Baltimore, for geriatrics; and Dr. Sydney S. Gellis, Pediatrician-in-Chief, Tufts-New England Medical Center, Boston, for pediatrics.

摘要:

Enzymatic criteria for diagnosis of myocardial infarction have suffered from a lack of specificity, since enzyme elevations also occur in noncardiac disorders. The MB Coenzyme of creatine phosphokinase has provided a way out of this difficulty. Not only is specific to injured myocardium but a recently developed plasma assay makes possible both diagnosis and, in many cases, measurement of the extent of damage.

摘要:

Two operations to permit urinary drainage had been performed in a 2½-year-old boy born with obstructing urethral valves, but infections and other complications were a constant threat, especially since the child had only one functioning kidney. After the anomalous valves were ablated endoscopically, the urinary tract was reconstructed, as shown here, to“undivert”the previously fashioned ileal loop bypass.

摘要:

The newborn infant may have a serious infection without appearing to be ill. Recognition of this fact and of the ways in which the neonate is physiologically and pharmacologically unique holds the key to effective management.

摘要:

Many valuable drugs may pose special hazards for the elderly, and illness induced by drugs may mimic stereotypes associated with old age. An optimal approach to the geriatric patient and his medication is described.
