ABSTRACT

Pediatric hospital medicine (PHM) is in an accelerated growth phase. Multiple elements have combined to affect the current state of the field. PHM is similar to other geographic specialties such as pediatric emergency medicine and pediatric critical care that deliver general, comprehensive care to patients based on hospital site. Pediatric hospitalists have been molded by changes in medicine, consumer expectations, and training program modifications. The history of PHM dates back for more than 3 decades, when unwitting pediatricians began to focus on delivering care for the hospitalized child. The ensuing years allowed for natural responses to external pressures that resulted in much of the field's initial development. In more recent years, however, pediatric hospitalists have been catalysts for change and driving forces for health care systems' improvements. Simultaneous with this has been the nearly exponential surge of energy focused on targeted initiatives, which have further defined the field and brought attention on a national level. PHM is at a critical but brilliant juncture in development. Further decisions regarding scope and demonstration of competencies are important to make with clarity of purpose. Pediatric hospitalists are advancing child health in the inpatient setting through evidence-based care, research, education, clinical excellence, advocacy, and health care business acumen. With a strong community sense and leadership evident, PHM has a bright future.

ABSTRACT

Herbert Aldersmith spent his entire working life, from the age of 23 years until his retirement at 65 years, as Resident Medical Officer to Christ's Hospital School. It was a crucial period in the school's history, from the overdue reforms of the late Victorian era to its historic move from the City of London to Sussex in 1902. He became an acknowledged authority on ringworm and also published extensively on the other great interest of his life, the British-Israel Society. He was the prime mover in founding the first-ever professional association of school doctors in 1884.

ABSTRACT

En el Comité Editorial de la revista, luego de seis meses de huelga en los hospitales estatales, pensamos que era importante contar con un punto de vista de un cirujano de lo que estaba pasando, por lo que conociendo la trayectoria del Dr. Leopoldo Mérida, le pedimos que nos hiciera un editorial para compartir su punto de vista con los miembros de la Asociación. Lo que recibimos, más que un editorial fue una reseña de la lucha por mejorar las condiciones de trabajo de médico de Salud Pública, hecha por alguien...

ABSTRACT

The aim of the work is to present a study of the gynaecology in Radom until 1947. The base of this study are prints, memoires and anniversary studies, both published and in typescript. Considering the scantiness of sources, disintegrated archives and time passed, the study is popularizing in character.
