Their story features an exclusive video made especially for MedGadget in which I talk about cardiopulmonary resuscitation and demonstrate our application for smart phones as well as our CPR PRO Cradle, which makes chest compressions easier to perform.

Gill, MD. By day, he’s Associate Professor of Obstetrics & Gynecology, Director of Urogynecology and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery, and Program Director of fellowship training in female pelvic medicine and surgery at Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center in Richmond, Virginia. Which is a long-winded way of saying that he’s really smart. By night, he practices yoga, swims, cooks, and builds furniture in his wood shop. Luckily for us, Dr. Gill will contribute regular posts to Blisstree and answer questions related to all of our “lady problems”. Seriously, why do men become gynecologists? (Sorry, but we’ve seen “The Hand that Rocks the Cradle,” and just had to ask.) That certainly comes up once in a while. In medical school, after ...

Jack Straw, the Justice Minister said:Biggs has shown no remorse for his appalling crime. I see no reason why the British taxpayer should continue to foot the bill for his medical care. He has been discharged from prison with immediate effect and will have care in the community like everyone else in this country.Jack StrawBigg's son, Michael, was outraged. "This is cruel beyond belief. Dad is doubly incontinent, cannot feed himself and is lapsing in and out of consciousness. He returned to this country to get the medical care to which he, as a British citizen, is entitled. Now he has been refused support in the community by a young girl who is not even medically qualified."Local social services, wh...

At one of the local hospitals, actually. I’m not altogether sure what he does. Something to do with data management about bed state, admissions and so on. He is a very conscientious worker. I can’t remember him ever have time off work other than three weeks for a bilateral inguinal hernia repair about twelve years ago. He lives with his wife, Mary, who works for the Post Office. I do not see much of either of them.I saw Eric today for the first time in five years. He was close to tears. He wanted me to sign him off work for two weeks for “stress”. He has already had one week off on a self-certificate. The underlying problem is Eric’s mother, Rhoda. Rhoda is a widow and lives 20...

While there are many different breastfeeding positions, the cross-cradle hold can be particularly helpful for newborns. Note how the mother is not forcefully pushing the baby’s head onto the breast, but rather is simply supporting the head and bringing the baby tummy-to-tummy and using her arm on the baby’s back and hand under the baby’s face. This position also allows for breast compressions (using the mother’s thumb on top of the breast and four fingers underneath the breast to compress the breast when baby is just “nibbling” and not actively sucking and swallowing large mouthfuls).
