The Boston Patriots continue to shine for the NFL and their New England fans in the night chill of their home field. Average NFL attendance was over 65,000 per contest. It could have been worse as ice and snow continue to make headlines. The Sunday NYtimes travel section was filled with ads for trips west to the ski reports in Aspen, Colorado, Taos, New Mexico, and Park City, Utah.

* Today’s stock market opening was Strong, jobs are available in Rochester, NY and elsewhere, U.S troop casualties in Iraq continue to decline, credit for consumers and home buyers is available, charitable giving and donations remains robust, and many a kid seems to be infected with the spirit of the Holiday Season.

Legacy Journal: Medical Fundamentals: Patient Care, Turf Battles, and Funding

Section:
Health and Medicine

Summary:
Medicine Today: Local, National, and Global: Three Views in the News

* Outliers: A case report from the University of Rochester.

The Texas Tornado and the Outlaw: The Feud ends between reconciled Houston heart surgeons DeBakey and Cooley.

* The Fundamentals: Why the United States is the object of both admiration and envy.

Main:
First, today the University of Rochester, Strong Memorial Hospital Rounds was a case report. The patient was a 83 year old woman who was transferred to the Intensive Care Unit from another hospital for care because of fever and cardiomyopathy. Her DRG code was sepsis, probably secondary to pneumonia . Her hospital stay was over 35 days. Consultations, tests and procedures were numerous and frequent. Hospital charges alone were $90,000; insurance reimbursement was 50 cents on the dollar. She was discharged in stable condition at her request three days after simplifying her medicine regimen. One lesson is that the patient did offer students and residents valuable clinical experience. In addition, she probably was included in a NIH funded, University study on focused on some of the fundamental cellular mechanisms of sepsis.

Second, today the nytimes reports that the long standing Texas sized feud between Dr. Michael DeBakey and Dr. Denton Cooley has ended.

Third, David Brooks, writing for the nntimes and reporting from China, makes the case for sticking to the fundamentals of open, free and fair trade given the financial and economic realities of Global trade and the fluid flow of funds.

In the interest of full disclosure of possible conflicts of interest, I have been a willing reference guinea pig subject for an ongoing sepsis research study at Strong, a CME attendee of one Dr. DeBakey’s lectures, a step-brother is a guy who owns his life saving cardiovascular emergency surgery at the Texas Heart Institute by an Iraqi surgeon in Houston, and a post WW II beneficiary of world travel, trade, and the free exchange of human and financial capital.

BTW, approximately 20% of western upstate New York’s working professionals are estimated to be foreign born according to a recently reported economic and business survey.
