Values and Ethical Dilemmas That Military Leaders Face Today After 10 Years of War
Ten years after the start of the war in Afghanistan, military leaders still face ethical dilemmas engendered by the war. The overall discussion that develops from the literature reveals more questions than answers. The essay examines moral issues surrounding unconventional warfare or police actions. Such questions as whether it is acceptable to kill noncombatant civilians or torture detainees are explored, along with Just War theory and unconventional warfare tactics. How much risk should soldiers be exposed to in order to minimize harm to civilians? In the absence of answers to these and similar questions, military personnel are left to make split-second life and death decisions without the benefit of training.
Cross cultural approaches to healthcare delivery
Strong religious faith can be leveraged on behalf of modern medicine as well as it can be leveraged for traditional or alternative medical practices. An additional cultural factor that may be a benefit to the practice of modern medicine with people who have strong cultural values, beliefs, and traditions is the tendency to honor wisdom and authority. When patients look up to their healthcare providers, they are inclined to at least listen to explanations about treatment options and to have core interest in working with the medical personnel to come up solutions or options that don't violate their strong traditional values.
Electrocardiogram interpretation and clinical applications
Currently there are different types of tests to study the behavior of the heart and monitor it. These tests are extremely important, because let us know in time if the heart is failing or has a problem. And because of that, today we submit to treatment or surgery to correct them when they are still small and manageable, before our life is at risk. The electrocardiogram, ECG or EKG, is one of those tests.
Electrocardiogram
The electrocardiogram (ECG / EKG) is the graph obtained with the electrocardiograph to measure the heart's electrical activity as a continuous graphic tape. It also helps to know the duration of the cardiac cycle. It is the main instrument for cardiac electrophysiology and has a significant role in screening and diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases, metabolic disorders and predisposition to sudden cardiac death (Daja, Reljin, Reljin, 2001). The ECG has the advantage of being a medical procedure with results available immediately, which is noninvasive and is inexpensive.
