...Anatomical Research on the Skene’s Gland This research paper endeavors to discuss the internal female sexual organ – the Skene’s gland. This organ has been used interchangeably with other names such as the G-spot, female prostrate, paraurethral gland, etc. To avoid ambiguity, this paper would be focusing on the generalized area commonly called the G-spot which includes the Skene’s gland. Within the field of sexology, there has been a lot of controversy over the topic of the G-spot. Similar to any other controversial issues, there is a divide between researchers who have made the conclusion that the G-spot is not an anatomical entity and others who believe the G-spot is a unique region responsible for a distinct sexual function. Irrespective of the ongoing debate about the G-spot, a direct clarification of what the G-spot is thought to be and the ascribed sexual function is discussed. The G-spot - named after the German gynecologist Ernst Graffenberg who discovered it in 1950 – is a highly erogenous zone which could be felt through the anterior wall of the female vagina, often located about one-third to one-half of the way in from the introitus (Mohammad 967). This region is easiest to locate if the woman were to lie on her back. In some cases, the woman might not recognize the region if she were not aroused (Mohammad 968). From a structural perspective, some researchers believe that what is called the G-spot could be a complex region composed of not a single tissue but a...

...Ethical Principles Paper Kalina Anderson University of Phoenix May 18, 2015 Introduction Ethics is defined as the branch of philosophy that involves systematizing, defending, and recommending concepts of right and wrong conduct. More simply put, it is the standards that members of a profession must follow. In psychology, ethics plays a big role in psychology because it protects the client and the counselor as well. However, in the case on Henrietta Lacks, it seems that there was no room for ethics during these scientists studies. Henrietta Lacks was a poor black tobacco farmer whose cells were taken without her knowledge in 1951. She was considered one of the most important tools in medicine and vital for developing the polio vaccine, cloning gene mapping, and more (Skloot, 2010). Summary In an Internet video, Film Media Group (2012) states that in 1860, Benjamin Lacks had two children by a black mistress and they all worked in the tobacco field for three generations. Then, in 1942, Benjamin Lack's great granddaughter Henrietta Lacks (her friends called her “Hennie”) moved to Baltimore and died there in 1951. Right before she died, her cancer cells were taken from her body to help research and “conquer death.” Since then, her cells have been growing and multiplying since. There was a laboratory close to where Henrietta lived. In that laboratory was Dr. George Gey who wanted to rid the world of cancer. After a gynecologist appointment, abnormal...

... Priority is to save the woman’s life, since ovarian cancer is so deadly, but it is still an important to address the woman’s possible concerns with future pregnancies. The research complied shows the prevalence of infertility related to ovarian cancer and what needs to be done to prevent infertility from the cancer treatments. Ovarian cancer starts in the ovaries and then can spread to the uterus and metastasized anywhere in the body. Women have two ovaries, one on each side of the uterus that produce ova and the hormones estrogen and progesterone. Ovarian cancer is easily undetected until it has spread to the pelvis and abdomen; this is when it is more challenging to treat and more fatal. Early-stage ovarian cancer, confined to one or both ovaries, is more likely to be treated effectively. Typical treatment includes surgery and chemotherapy. Early-stage ovarian cancer rarely causes any symptoms, hence why the cancer is not identified until advanced-stages. The most common symptoms are constipation or irritable bowel. Then other signs and symptoms may include “weight loss, bloating, change in bowel habits, urinary frequency, and feeling full soon after starting to eat” (Bohn, 2015). The diagnosis is typically found during a yearly wellness check up with a family physician or obstetrician and gynecologist (OB-GYN) then the client is referred to a “OB-GYN gynecologic oncologist, who specializes in cancer of the reproductive system” (Bohn, 2015).

... Raymond Gentry Choriocarcinoma: Not a Death Sentence Choriocarcinoma, or also known as Gestational Trophoblastic Disease (GTD), is a very rare and malignant type of tumor. According to Spickler and Oberleitner (2011), Choriocarcinoma develops from genetically deformed germ cells which usually produce sperm or eggs (pp.1012-1014). Research shows no exact causes for the development of Choriocarcinoma (GTD). Early research shows that Choriocarcinoma was almost always found to be a fatal disease. There are no known means of prevention for this disease. According to Spickler and Oberleitner (2011), although Choriocarcinoma has the capability to metastasize extremely fast, there is a high possibility of a complete cure or remission even if the disease has been diagnosed in later stages of development even with metastases (pp.1012-1014). My research will show that it is not a dismal death sentence for those diagnosed with it. Choriocarcinoma (GTD) is primarily found in women during their childbearing years however it has been diagnosed in men as well. This paper will concentrate on the causes, risk factors, and forms of treatment in women. Doctors have no exact explanation for the development of Choriocarcinoma (GTD), though there are many risk factors. Some of the leading causes are an ectopic pregnancy where the fetus starts development in the fallopian tube. According to Goldstein and Berkowitz (2004b) the development of...

...The Electronic Health Record (EHR) is a electronic record of patient health information generated by one or more encounters in any care delivery setting. Included in this information are patient demographics, progress notes, problems, medications, vital signs, past medical history, immunizations, laboratory data and radiology reports. The EHR automates and streamlines the clinician's workflow. The EHR has the ability to generate a complete record of a clinical patient encounter as well as supporting other care-related activities directly or indirectly including evidence-based decision support, quality management, and outcomes reporting. A government-sponsored survey of the use of computerized patient records by doctors points to two seemingly contradictory conclusions, and a health care system at odds with itself. Skip to next paragraph A government-sponsored survey of the use of computerized patient records by doctors points to two seemingly contradictory conclusions, and a health care system at odds with itself. The report, published online on Wednesday in The New England Journal of Medicine, found that doctors who use electronic health records say overwhelmingly that such records have helped improve the quality and timeliness of care. Yet fewer than one in five of the nation’s doctors has started using such records. Bringing patient records into the computer age, experts say, is crucial to improving care, reducing errors and containing costs in the American health care...
