BYETTA - New Class of Diabetic Drugs
by F. Kuhn, RN
Byetta is a drug derived from the saliva of the Gila monster lizard. I do know one person who is taking Byetta and has better control of her blood sugar levels. The medication has even decreased her appetite. That is a benefit for her since she is overweight.
Byetta (exenatide) is the first among a new class of diabetes drugs for Type 2 Diabetes called incretin mimetics -- synthetic medications that mimic action of a hormone that spurs insulin production after a person eats and blood sugar levels rise above a certain threshold.

by Philip Lye
As a former Chief Executive Officer qualified in Human Resource Management, Employee Relations and Accounting it has often been my question as to what place the recruitment industry plays today's marketplace and to whether they give value for money or not.
Releasing my companys hard earnt dollars I was recently parted with $36,000 for two employees with salary packages of less than $100,000 I reflected on the cheque I had just signed going out the door. Who in their right mind would pay this extortionate amount of money.

We Are Not Mutts - The Critical Care Transport Registered Nurse (RN)
by Kevin Erickson
Some things are simply a mystery and so goes the perceived role and importance that the Critical Care Transport (CCT) RN plays in the healthcare field. Other professionals seem to view us like mutts - a little bit of everything but certainly not a thoroughbred in anything.
I once heard a co-worker describe the job as something between a magnified EMT and a bench warmer. Such flattery - but what can you do?

Medical Stock Footage - Prognosis Excellent |
|
As the teaching of medicine becomes an ever increasingly multimedia process, the need for medical stock footage to illustrate the finer points of human anatomy grows apace. Simple two-dimensional illustrations pale in comparison to the lifelike realism offered by state-of-the-art computer animation.
Known in the video production industry by the acronym CGI for Computer Generated Imagery, this technology is responsible for the breathtaking scenes popularized by the feature films Shrek, Toy Story, and Finding Nemo.
Many producers, educational institutions, teaching hospitals and nursing schools are finding themselves in need of stock footage to incorporate in PowerPoint presentations and full-fledged videos intended for distribution online, via DVD and in the classroom.
Royalty free stock footage is an extremely cost-effective way to obtain this footage from existing stock video libraries. These companies offer previously produced video on liberal usage terms for much less cost to the buyer than producing the needed sequences from scratch.
The upside is very high quality footage sourced at very reasonable cost and under simple and uncomplicated license. The downside is that this footage will not be exclusive to the end user and it may not be a perfect match.
A few last points to keep in mind when shopping for stock footage. When you purchase most stock video you can use it time after time without paying new fees. Most stock video is available on CD, DVD or via download. And finally, you can either order the entrée or a la carte. In other words, most agencies will sell you an entire collection or a single clip. Royalty free medical stock video, its not just for Hollywood anymore! |
