  • Procedures and Protocols for Cadaver Use at Imperial Valley College
    Procedures and Protocols for Cadaver Use at Imperial Valley College Statement: Imperial Valley College (IVC) is committed to providing its students the best possible education. The study of human anatomy is a vital component of the education of pre- healthcare professionals and can be enhanced through the detailed study of the human body. Imperial Valley College believes that the use of donated human bodies provides its pre-professional health care students a unique opportunity to better understand the structure and structural relationships of the human body. The use of donated bodies enables students to appreciate the size and 3-dimensionality of a body that they would otherwise not be exposed to without the study of cadavers. Similarly, use of donated bodies by our students provides them the additional benefit of evaluating biological variation and a chance of viewing various pathologies. Imperial Valley College also believes the benefits of using cadavers go beyond an understanding of anatomy by providing students “a first patient,” thereby exposing them to an element of humanness that they would otherwise not receive if IVC did not use donated bodies. Imperial Valley College believes that through the use of donated bodies our students will be better prepared to pursue successful careers in the health care industry. Imperial Valley College recognizes the value and importance of donated bodies and is committed to ensuring that donated bodies will always be treated with the utmost care and respect. Survivors may gain some comfort in the knowledge that IVC fully understands the indispensable and honorable contribution that body donors have made to the education of our students.

  • Mummies and Mummification He Egyptian Ministry of Tourism Reported That a Twhopping 13.6 Million Tourists Visited the Country in 2019, up 21% from the Previous Year
    MUSEUM FRIDAY FEATURE Mummies and Mummification he Egyptian Ministry of Tourism reported that a Twhopping 13.6 million tourists visited the country in 2019, up 21% from the previous year. While there are many reasons to visit this fascinating country, we might surmise that a substantial portion of Egypt’s eternal allure can be summed in one word: mummies. They are as synonymous with Egypt as sand is to the Sahara. Take the mummies and tombs away from Egypt, and its timeless appeal would evaporate like a drop of water on the desert. Mummification in ancient Egypt arose from beliefs surrounding the afterlife, and the idea that the ka (soul) left the body at death, but reunited with it if the deceased passed successfully into Aaru or the “Field of Reeds,” a heaven-like place for the righteous. Final judgment involved weighing the heart (in which the ka resided) before the god Osiris in the Underworld. In 2018, Egyptologists broke the news of the astounding discovery of an underground mummification chamber at Saqqara. The facility included a natural ventilation system, channels to drain blood, an enormous incense burner (to repel insects), and the remains of hundreds of small jars, many of which contained antibacterial agents. Substances like myrrh, cassia, cedar, etc., could be used to inhibit decomposition, but they came with a cost, and thus turning a human body into a mummy was not cheap. Male Mummy Mask Full mummification took seventy days, but only the Egyptian, Roman period, 1st–2nd c. CE elite could afford such a deluxe funeral package.

  • Three End-Of-Life Cases: Resolving Their Moral Dilemmas
    Vol. 33:2 Summer 2017 Three End-of-Life Cases: Resolving Their Moral Dilemmas RENÉ E MIRKES, OSF, PHD An organization of Roman Catholic physicians presented a set of questions to guide moral assessment of three end-of-life cases. The questions for each scenario highlight a corresponding ethical dilemma: (Case #1) the determination of brain death by neurological criteria; (Case #2) the decision to withhold or withdraw artificial nutrition and hydration from an unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (UWS) (formerly referred to as persistent vegetative state, [PVS]) patient; and (Case #3) the administration of pain medication that hastens death. To adjudicate the moral concern raised in each of these clinical cases, the following moral analyses appeal to the natural law perspective summarized in the Ethical & Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services1 and in other philosophical resources, both Catholic and secular. CASE #1 An 18-year-old involved in a motorcycle accident was brought to the emergency room with massive head trauma and life support. A brain angiogram showed no blood flow, and a neurological examination revealed no brainstem reflexes as well as persistent apnea. Blood pressure medication was required for heart rate and blood pressure control. Since the patient was an organ donor, the organ recovery team was called in after he was declared brain dead. Discussion (1) When and how do we declare a person dead? What is the difference between theological and scientific definitions of death? (A) A living human being is a substantial union of a (mammalian) body and a rational soul. We are not spiritual beings who use or have bodies.

  • How to Know If You're Dead
    How to Know If You're Dead Beating-heart cadavers, live burial, and the scientific search for the soul A patient on the way to surgery travels at twice the speed of a patient on the way to the morgue. Gurneys that ferry the living through hospital corridors move forward in an aura of purpose and push, flanked by caregivers with long strides and set faces, steadying IVs, pumping ambu bags, barreling into double doors. A gurney with a cadaver commands no urgency. It is wheeled by a single person, calmly and with little notice, like a shopping cart. For this reason, I thought I would be able to tell when the dead woman was wheeled past. I have been standing around at the nurses' station on one of the surgery floors of the University of California at San Francisco Medical Center, watching gurneys go by and waiting for Von Peterson, public affairs manager of the California Transplant Donor Network, and a cadaver I will call H. "There's your patient," says the charge nurse. A commotion of turquoise legs passes with unexpected forward-leaning urgency. H is unique in that she is both a dead person and a patient on the way to surgery. She is what's known as a "beating-heart cadaver," alive and well everywhere but her brain. Up until artificial respiration was developed, there was no such entity; without a functioning brain, a body will not breathe on its own. But hook it up to a respirator and its heart will beat, and the rest of its organs will, for a matter of days, continue to thrive.

Diabetes Complications. 2017; 1(3); 1-6. ABSTRACT Diabetes mellitus, the most common type of endocrine disorder, globally affects over 400 million individuals and is steadily rising. Cultural and environmental norms that embrace or facilitate the lack of consistency in diet, lifestyle and behavioral patterns that promote health have inadvertently promoted and sustained a diabetogenic environment. Dietary patterns plentiful in processed foods, refined grains, sugar, sodium, fat and calories, coupled with modern conveniences that commission sedentary lifestyles have noticeably contributed to the diabetes epidemic as well. Like other chronic diet-related diseases, modifications of dietary intake and consumption patterns are necessary for diabetes prevention. Unfortunately, many modifiable and non-modifiable factors may hinder an individual’s ability to obtain an optimal diet for disease prevention and health promotion. This includes, but is not limited to, lack of access to affordable, nutrient-dense foods, geographical location, built environment and demographic characteristics. A prime example of this can be seen in the southeastern region of the United States known as the Stroke Belt, which exhibits exceptionally higher than national average prevalence rates of cardiovascular disease, stroke, diabetes and accompanying disparities in health.

ESRD is a potent risk factor for stroke, but whether regional variations in stroke risk exist among dialysis patients is unknown. Medicare claims from 2000 to 2005 were used to ascertain ischemic stroke events in a large cohort of 265,685 incident dialysis patients. A Poisson generalized linear mixed model was generated to determine factors associated with stroke and to ascertain state-by-state geographic variability in stroke rates by generating observed-to-expected (O/E) adjusted rate ratios for stroke. Older age, female sex, African American race and Hispanic ethnicity, unemployed status, diabetes, hypertension, history of stroke, and permanent atrial fibrillation were positively associated with ischemic stroke, whereas body mass index .30 kg/m2 was inversely associated with stroke (P,0.001 for each). After full multivariable adjustment, the three states with O/E rate ratios .1.0 were all in the South: North Carolina, Mississippi, and Oklahoma.

  • Solving Crimes with the Necrobiome Film Activity Educator Materials
    Solving Crimes with the Necrobiome Film Activity Educator Materials OVERVIEW Solving Crimes with the Necrobiome is one of 12 videos in the HHMI series I Contain Multitudes, which explores the fascinating powers of the microbiome: the world of bacteria, fungi, and other microbes that live on and within larger lifeforms, including ourselves. This particular video focuses on the microbes associated with decomposing corpses, or cadavers. Following death, the microbiome of a body changes dramatically in composition. The community of organisms associated with a cadaver, which includes these microbes, is known as the necrobiome. In the video, Jessica Metcalf, an associate professor at Colorado State University, describes how she tracks changes in the necrobiomes in, on, and around the decaying bodies of dead animals, including humans, over time. She also explains how the predictable sequence of microbial communities associated with a cadaver can serve as a “microbial clock” for estimating time since death, providing useful knowledge for crime scene investigators. Additional information related to pedagogy and implementation can be found on this resource’s webpage, including suggested audience, estimated time, and curriculum connections. KEY CONCEPTS • Living organisms host a complex community of microbes called a microbiome, which is usually regulated by the host’s immune system. • Decomposition is mediated by microbes in predictable stages of ecological succession, which correspond to measurable and consistent changes in the microbial community. • Decomposition is fundamental for cycling energy and nutrients in ecosystems. STUDENT LEARNING TARGETS • Describe the process of decomposition and the role it plays in an ecosystem. • Explain how the microbiome associated with a decomposing body can be used to estimate the time since death.
