Book Description

Join Dr. Nesheiwat on an extraordinary journey of compassion and faith in Beyond the Stethoscope: Miracles in Medicine where gripping stories of miraculous recoveries, experiences in the ER, and global medical missions illuminate the transformative power of prayer and unwavering dedication to healing and service. An extraordinary true story, this vivid Christian memoir follows a young doctor from a humble immigrant family whose path to fulfilling her dreams was marked by monumental trials and losses. Despite navigating a demanding medical career and personal loss, her faith in God remains steadfast. Guided by Christian wisdom, each challenge strengthens Dr. Janette Nesheiwat’s resolve to make a difference in the lives of her patients. And just when she believes she has weathered the worst storms, a pandemic plunges the world into chaos, Ukraine enters into a war with Russia, and fierce earthquakes ravage the people of Morocco. Dr. Janette is among the frontline workers helping to get people through these dark moments—her greatest lifeline being her family and the power of God’s love. “Dr. Janette is an angel on Earth—she has more medical knowledge and compassion than anyone I’ve ever met. In her new book, Beyond the Stethoscope: Miracles in Medicine, you will get to meet this remarkable woman who reminds me every day to be gracious under pressure, and you’ll be convinced that miracles happen right in front of your eyes.” –Dana Perino, America’s Newsroom “A must read! I’m inspired by Dr. Nesheiwat’s dedication to serving others in the name of Jesus Christ. Her extraordinary service is documented in Beyond the Stethoscope: Miracles in Medicine where she showcases the power of Jesus guiding her work leading challenging and dangerous medical missions throughout the world. This book is a reminder of the blessings that unfold when we trust in God's love.” –Ainsley Earhardt, Co-host Fox & Friends

Book Description

The book contains a series of core auscultation “lessons”. All are case based and describe auscultation as it relates to a patient and in terms of the gold standard for interpretation of heart sounds. Auscultation is the term for listening to the internal sounds of the body, usually using a stethoscope. It is performed for the purposes of examining the circulatory system and respiratory system (heart sounds and breath sounds). As a topic it is one of the oldest in cardiology but its utility should never be underestimated. In this era of hugely expensive imaging tests, auscultation is a cornerstone of efficient diagnosis and therefore needs a fresh look. The core content of this book describes the search for diagnostic clues within patients’ heart sounds and as such this book provides superb practical advice in the form of a series of clinical pearls reflecting what accurate diagnosis with auscultation can mean to patient prognosis and outcome. This often subtle but ultimately simple subject often produces complex results and these must be considered in light of modern next-level diagnostic methods and patient management.

Book Description

A profound insight into the state of our health care system, the wellbeing of patients and that of their doctors.Our health care system is struggling. We live in an era of factory style medicine; spiralling costs; complex and chronic conditions; and doctors at the heart of it under pressure as never before. Witnessing worrying burnout in her doctor husband, Lucy Mayes went on a quest to find out what is really going on behind the scenes in medicine. Lucy asked doctors on the front lines how they make meaning in their work, what quality medicine looks like to them, and what their hopes are for the future of medicine. What emerged were consistent messages about elements of practice that the culture and systems of medicine still struggle to understand and support: the power of humanism; compassion; time; listening; the therapeutic relationship; and mind-body plus other whole-person understandings of health and healing. Beyond the Stethoscope will leave readers shocked, moved and inspired by the human story and wisdom of those who sit before them in that most intimate and ancient of humanist exchanges: that of the doctor and patient.

Book Description

A surprising investigation of a scientific instrument long at the pulse of medicine. This book explores the colorful past, present, and future of an instrument that is, quite literally, close to our hearts. The stethoscope has become the symbol of medicine itself—how did this come to be? What makes the stethoscope such a familiar yet charismatic object? Drawing from a range of fields including history, anthropology, science, technology, and sound studies, the book illustrates the variety of roles the stethoscope has played over time. It shows that the stethoscope is not, and has never been, a single entity. It is used to a variety of ends, serves several purposes, and is open to many interpretations. This variability is the key to the stethoscope’s enduring presence in the medical and popular imagination.
