Modern surgery usually proceeds as follows:
Prior to surgery, particularly if it's non-emergency, the patient is given a medical examination, certain pre-operative tests, an ASA score, and (if satisfactory) a surgical clearance to be operated on. An autologous blood donation may be made a couple weeks prior to surgery to be ready in case of blood loss during surgery. If the surgery involves the digestive system, evacuation of the digestive tract with subsequent fasting is done by the patient.
Other preparations for surgery are often done. When the patient enters the operating room, intravenous injection and various instruments to monitor the patient's vital signs are attached. The skin surface to be operated on is cleaned and prepared by shaving hair in area of incision and applying an antiseptic such as betadine to avoid the possibility of infection.
Anesthesia is administered to prevent pain from incision, other tissue cutting and suturing, etc. Although in theory it may sometimes be possible to operate without anesthesia, in most surgeries the pain would be unbearable and a patient would not hold sufficiently still for a surgeon to precisely operate. The anesthesia could be local or general anesthesia. With local anesthesia, the body area operated on is anesthetized, but the patient can remain conscious. With general anesthesia, the patient is rendered unconscious during surgery by an anesthesiologist. The anesthesia is often administered in the form of a drug. For certain serious types of surgery when a muscle relaxant is used, the patient undergoes intubation and is placed on mechanical ventilation using a mechanical ventilator. Intubation is inserting an endotracheal tube into the mouth, through the throat, and into the trachea to provide oxygen to the lungs. Open heart surgery often involves placement of a patient on a heart-lung machine and lowering body temperature so the heart stops beating. When finished, body temperature is raised and, if necessary, an electrical impulse administered to restart the heart.
Then, an incision is made to access the inside of the body area to be worked on. Blood vessels may be clamped to prevent bleeding. Other surgical tools (instruments) may be used to keep the incision open. It is commonly desired to keep the incision as small as possible. Various internal membranes may be cut also for further access inside. In certain cases, bone may be cut to further access the interior of the body; for example, cutting the skull for brain surgery or cutting the sternum for thoracic (chest) surgery to open up the rib cage.
Surgery may also involve reattachment of severed limbs, digits, or other body parts. Often a lot of microsurgery is involved in replantation. Muscles, blood vessels, and nerves often need to be reattached. Modern techniques such as the use of a bone grinder to assist in grafting bone back into place are becoming more common. Companies such as TMI, Thomas Matthew Industries work with a specific mechanism which aids in bone grinding and regrowing associated damaged to bone. This process under patent allows osteopathic surgeons to take a poorly damaged bone or joint and essentially remanufacture it back to near its original state. [1] The process is being considered for many soldiers injured in war and has numerous applications for people who have suffered damage to their bones. This will be a major beneficial way of making people's lives better in the years to come.
Surgery has also been conducted to separate conjoined twins. Sex change operations are also a form of surgery.
Blood transfusions to the patient may be made to compensate for blood lost during surgery. Towards the end of surgery, sutures or staples are used to close the incision. Such closure allows the incision(s) to heal naturally. An incision scar typically remains. At the end of surgery when the patient is able to breath on one's own, the patient is taken off of mechanical ventilation and any endotracheal tube used is removed.
After completion of surgery, the patient is brought to a recovery room for a while and closely monitored. After some major operations, the patient may be in an intensive care unit (ICU) for a while. Afterwards a patient often continues recuperation in a regular hospital room or if surgery was relatively minor, discharged to recuperate at home. A patient having undergone surgery on the digestive system may be put on a liquid diet for a while. Often after surgery, the incision closure is checked periodically for signs of infection. External stitches are removed after perhaps 10 days or so (See Suture), after healing of the incision is well under way.
Adjuvant treatment such as chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or administration of medication such as anti-rejection medicine for transplants may be done. Other follow-up checks or rehabilitation may be done for a recovery period. As a result of some serious surgery, it is possible for a patient to suffer perioperative mortality, i.e. die during or after the surgery.
Basic Sciences
1. Anatomy - is the study of the physical structure of organisms. In contrast to macroscopic or gross anatomy, cytology and histology are concerned with microscopic structures.
2. Biochemistry - is the study of the chemistry taking place in living organisms, especially the structure and function of their chemical components.
3. Biostatistics - is the application of statistics to biological fields in the broadest sense. A knowledge of biostatistics is essential in the planning, evaluation, and interpretation of medical research. It is also fundamental to epidemiology and evidence-based medicine.
4. Cytology - is the microscopic study of individual cells.
5. Embryology - is the study of the early development of organisms.
6. Epidemiology - is the study of the demographics of disease processes, and includes, but is not limited to, the study of epidemics.
7. Genetics - is the study of genes, and their role in biological inheritance.
8. Histology - is the study of the structures of biological tissues by light microscopy, electron microscopy and immunohistochemistry.
9. Immunology - is the study of the immune system, which includes the innate and adaptive immune system in humans, for example.
10. Microbiology - is the study of microorganisms, including protozoa, bacteria, fungi, and viruses.
11. Neuroscience - includes those disciplines of science that are related to the study of the nervous system. A main focus of neuroscience is the biology and physiology of the human brain and spinal cord.
12. Nutrition - is the study of the relationship of food and drink to health and disease, especially in determining an optimal diet. Medical nutrition therapy is done by dietitians and is prescribed for diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, weight and eating disorders, allergies, malnutrition, and neoplastic diseases.
13. Pathology - as a science is the study of disease—the causes, course, progression and resolution thereof.
14. Pharmacology - is the study of drugs and their actions.
15. Physiology - is the study of the normal functioning of the body and the underlying regulatory mechanisms.
16. Toxicology - is the study of hazardous effects of drugs and poisons.
