Interesting article for your weekend reading

[Guest guest]

Atul Gawande guy wrote a wonderful book when in surgical residency about the vagaries and mysteries of medicine and health care.

( Complications: A Surgeon's Notes on an Imperfect Science).

He now shares stories from his current practice.

Better: A Surgeon's Notes on Performance

Buy his book.

I have scanned a chapter in for you about the fascinating subject of WASHING YOUR HANDS!

(Forgive the weird formatting as it is a scan and OCR word recognition which makes errors.)

Fred Colley would be proud of his writing about the horrors of puerperal fever in new mothers infected by the grubby surgeons at the London Hospital.

If you want to see a great online class on BOUNDARIES FOR PHYSICIANS (only $39) along with a free bonus class on NEUROSURGERY OF SPINAL CONDITIONS, please visit

www.dccredits.org to preview “trailers” of the classes.

Have a great weekend and always remember to keep your stick on the ice.
