Much happened in the next 20 years to justify a new rendition of the story and additionally much more has been learned about the earlier times. Urology is a microcosm of modern specialized health care, but its story is also of particular interest for its ancient root as the single designated medical subspecialty set apart by the Hippocratic Oath 2,400 years ago from all other parts of medical care and education. The progression of skills and ideas, as well as stories of the people who advanced primitive healing arts to nineteenth-century genitourinary practice and then to twentieth-century urology, will be recounted as a primer on this field. We want to reinforce this part of medical historical literacy for new generations of learners while refreshing it for veterans. Just as urology training programs have had to provide basic surgical edu- cation for resident trainees, since most medical schools no longer reli- ably impart basic surgical skills, medical cultural literacy also must be taught, by default after medical school, in graduate medical educational levels of residency training and through continuing medical education for practitioners. No story is ever complete in its recollections of the past. An author has only partial relevant knowledge of any story, and the myriad other details of the cultural and physical soups that surrounded those facts are mostly lost to historical recollection. Lucky historians recover, recon- struct, or resuscitate useful information, but all stories are mainly nar- ratives of imagination and facts, whether true facts or otherwise. Don Coffey, the great urological scientist at Johns Hopkins Medical School, used to instruct his research trainees: “You have to learn to tell the differ- ence between facts and true facts.” Historical studies no less than scien- tific investigations aim to discern truth, although the sciences may strive vii viii Preface to reduce facts and observations to laws and principles, whereas histori- cal understanding is broadened by context. Stories, even as particular as this one of a single academic urology unit, are enriched by the context of their people, events, and circumstances. For example, it’s inconceivable to consider urology at Michigan without understanding the roles of early founders and university leaders in shaping the institution, the political tensions of the times, relationships with state and community, and the generous philanthropy that built and sustains the school, its faculty, and its programs. No less important are certain individuals such as Moses Gunn, present at the start of the University of Michigan Medical School in 1848, and any appreciation of Gunn requires the context of the Civil War. Tension between the clinical enterprise, so essential to medical education, and the other two elements of medical academia, teaching and research, first manifested at Michigan with Gunn, driving his practice to Detroit and ultimately to Chicago. The mission balance dilemma continues to per- plex medical schools today. Victor Vaughan was another towering figure at the University of Michigan from his awkward arrival in 1874 to the end of his life in 1927. His big career opportunity came with the Rose- Douglas controversy, when he was the right person in the right place, and throughout the years that followed the homeopathy issue bubbled to the top, collapsed, and resurfaced again. These stories are interwoven deeply in the Michigan urology narrative just as all medical specialties and academic organizational structures have their own relevant intersect- ing stories. The small detail of a genito-urinary surgery title on a University of Michigan Hospital letterhead from 1919 (on next page) signaled the transition from a small clinical practice of genitourinary surgery to modern academic urology. Hugh Cabot was the reason for that transi- tion, as the Konnak and Pardanani book slyly reveals, with the section “Why is Hugh Cabot included?” While it was a well-known fact that the Cabot era began in the 1920 academic year, the letter just mentioned and other documents to follow show the true fact of his actual arrival in Ann Arbor and work in the medical school to have begun in the autumn term of 1919. The contentious Cabot decade that followed defined urology at Michi- gan for the next century and brought the first two urology trainees to Ann Arbor: Charles Huggins would win a Nobel Prize in medicine for his work with prostate cancer, and Reed Nesbit would achieve nearly equivalent international prominence for clinical innovation and post- graduate education. Nesbit led Michigan’s first Section of Urology within the Department of Surgery and his fifth successor, Jim Montie, inaugu- rated an independent Department of Urology, in concert with Dean Allen Preface ix Lichter and surgery chair Lazar Greenfield, in 2001. Over the next two decades, the Department of Urology became one of the leaders and best of academic urologic departments according to surveys, rankings, patient preferences, learners, and faculty recruits. With those relevant details, and many others, this story aims to be rich in contextual factors. This volume entwines the stories of one medical subspecialty and a public university medical school within a single narrative. Other works probe the distinct stories of urology in America, the University of Michi- gan, and American medicine with far greater depth. Margaret and Nicholas Steneck’s bicentennial edition of Howard Peckham’s sesquicen- tennial work, The Making of the University of Michigan, is particularly Surgery department letterhead, Bentley Library collection of President Hutchins’ papers. x Preface indispensable to understanding this institution and is a model that its urology story herein seeks to emulate. The Stenecks proposed, metaphor- ically, that this university began with a single strand that represented the university’s foundational aim of teaching, to disseminate knowledge and embrace education at all levels. This strand thickened over time and was joined by a second strand, representing the knowledge itself, that must be interpreted, renewed, and rebutted, through exploration, criticism, research, and invention, while winding around the first strand of teach- ing. The Stenecks then added another part to the braid: Now there is a third strand wound with the other two. The Univer- sity touches more than just its young students and faculty. It gives services to the State that help maintain it; it aids citizens who never enroll. These services began when its hospitals received perplexing cases from all over the State. It continued with the upgrading of high schools, the testing of municipal water supplies, with experiments in reforestation, testing programs for state highways. It supplied read- ing lists for club programs, lecture series for enlightenment, and musi- cal concerts for entertainment. It expanded to research contracts for Michigan industries, development of new products for manufacture in Michigan, seminars for business executives, realtors and asses- sors, state college presidents, and refresher demonstrations for physi- cians and dentists. It provided radio and TV educational programs for all . Teaching—research—and service.

The historical review begins with 1874 because the decision made that year in the Kdlamazoo Case confirmed the right of communities to high schools by taxation. It ends with 1921 because two pisurrtt tal events occurred in that year: first, the organization of the American Association of Junior Colleges, and second, the establishtent of the first unitari.two..year junior college, namely, ,Modesto Junior College in Modesto, California. It reviews the historical development of secondary schools, liberal arts colleges, professional schools, universities, and junior colleges in that time period. The author/concludes that the junior college of today is an historical accident. A bibliography is appended.

  • Patient Referral Guidelines
    SULTANATE OF OMAN MINISTRY OF HEALTH MANUAL ON PATIENT REFERRAL GUIDELINES SECOND EDITION – 2004 DIRECTORATE GENERAL OF HEALTH AFFAIRS 1 PREFACE Patient Referral system is the back-bone of health services infrastructure, offering highest possible levels of health services to each and every member of the community through a network of Primary, Secondary, & Tertiary Health Care providing institutions. MOH assigns high priority to this essential component of health services, evidenced by a recent National Workshop and revision of the Manual on Patient Referral Guidelines within five years of publication of the previous edition of the manual. Manual on Patient Referral Guidelines has been revised in consideration with the changing needs of the community, rapid development of health services in Oman, and changing concepts in the medical profession. We have also attempted to make the referral system even more patient friendly, as well as making the manual user-friendlier. Following changes in the manual (and policies therein) make it simpler to read and understand, despite further elaboration of referral protocols and inclusion of beneficial and relevant information. 1. Permissibility of skipping service levels with certain explicit criteria applied. Thereby, offering referring clinicians a margin to select appropriate referral institution and save precious time of patients, making the referral system more patient friendly. 2. Necessary amendments in the Patient Referral Form, making it suitable to serve the purpose as an appointment request form and monitoring the referral system as well. 3. Revision of concepts and definitions for referral assessment criteria, and their incorporation in Monitoring & Reporting system. 4. Inclusion of scientific definitions for clinical categories of referrals i.e.

  • Xerox University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • War Hero Followed Family Legacy
    War Hero Followed Family Legacy It was June 24, 1898, a hot tropical day in Cuba, when a group of Indian Territory boys took part in one of the first battles of the Spanish American War. The U.S. had entered into the war in aid of Cubans who were fighting for their independence from Spain. President William McKinley had sought to create an all- volunteer cavalry unit to send to Cuba. The plan was for this unit to be filled with men from the western terri- tories – Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Indian Territory. In Muskogee, federal judge John R. Thomas, Sr. was in charge of recruiting two troops. He took an ac- tive interest in this role and under his guidance saw Troop L and Troop M embark from Muskogee to a train- ing camp in San Antonio, Texas. His own son, Lieutenant John R. Thomas, Jr., was among these troops. Once in San Antonio, the First U.S. Volunteer Cavalry – its official name – quickly became know as Theodore Roosevelt’s Rough Riders. Roosevelt had resigned his position as assistant Secretary of the Navy to serve as lieutenant colonel in this regiment. At the Battle of Las Guasimas, 500 Americans faced a force of 2,000 Spaniards. Skeptics had questioned how these famed Rough Riders would per- form under battle conditions. Also at the battle was the Tenth Calvary, an all- black unit known as the Buffalo Soldiers who had at various times served I.T. forts. The regular cavalry also had a unit present at Las Guasimas.
