Laparoscopia pelvica diagnostica - Medical Animation
MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT: La laparoscopia pelvica diagnostica se utiliza para examinar los rganos internos de la pelvis con el fin de identificar un problema especifico. Puede que se le recomiende someterse a una laparoscopia pelvica diagnostica si tiene dolor pelvico, una masa, acumulacin anormal de lquidos o dificultad para quedar embarazada. Esto se puede deber a endometriosis, embarazo tubrico, tumor o quiste de ovario, escarificacin debido a infecciones pelvicas u otras afecciones. Las tcnicas laparoscopicas requieren solo una incisin mnima en forma de ojo de cerradura, o una incisin punzante y el periodo de recuperacin es mas corto y menos doloroso. Cuando llega al hospital para el procedimiento, se le colocara una via intravenosa y es posible que se le suministre un sedante para ayudarla a relajarse. La laparoscopia pelvica se realiza con anestesia general, por lo tanto estar dormida durante el tiempo que dure la operacin. Se insertara temporalmente un tubo respiratorio por la boca y en la garganta para ayudarla a respirar durante la operacin. Adems se le colocara un catter en la vejiga para drenar la orina. Una laparoscopia diagnostica sin complicaciones puede tardar entre 30 y 60 minutos. El cirujano podr acceder al interior de la pelvis mediante el uso de instrumentos cortantes denominados trocares, con los que realizara una apertura pequena o puerto de entrada de media pulgada debajo del ombligo. Luego se bombeara dixido de carbono a travs del puerto de entrada umbilical para inflar el abdomen y as poder visualizar su contenido mas fcilmente. A continuacin, el cirujano insertara el laparoscopio a travs del puerto umbilical, las imagines de la cmara se proyectan en un monitor de la sala de operaciones. El cirujano examinara cuidadosamente los tejidos y rganos pelvicos en busca de signos de enfermedad que pudieran explicar sus sntomas. Puede crear otros puertos a travs de los cuales e pueden deslizar instrumentos. Estos instrumentos adicionales se utilizan para desplazar rganos para visualizar mejor o para realizar procedimientos operativos tales como: extirpar tejido fibroso, realizar biopsias, muestras de tejidos o drenar fluido anormal. Cuando el laparoscopio y los dems instrumentos se retiran se deja en el lugar una vlvula de gas especial por poco tiempo, para liberar todo el dixido de carbono del abdomen. Las incisiones en forma de ojo de cerradura se cierran con algunas suturas o grapas y luego se cubren con un vendaje. Despus de la ciruga, se le retirara el tubo respiratorio y se la monitoriar en el rea de recuperacin. Poco rato despus se le retirara el catter y se le administraran medicamentos para el dolor segn sea necesario. Cuando pueda tomar lquidos, se le retirara la va intravenosa. La mayora de las pacientes son dadas de alta pocas horas despus del procedimiento.
"Medical illustrations are essential evidence in personal injury litigation and MLA is simply the best I've found at producing high-quality illustrations. Your illustrators are not only first-class artists, but creative and responsive. Your turn around time is as good as it gets. My clients have won over $60 million in jury verdicts and I can't recall a case which did not include one of your exhibits. On behalf of those clients, thanks and keep up the great work!"
"It is my experience that it's much more effective to show a jury what
happened than simply to tell a jury what happened. In this day and age where
people are used to getting information visually, through television and
other visual media, I would be at a disadvantage using only words.
I teach a Litigation Process class at the University of Baltimore Law Schooland use [Medical Legal Art's] animation in my class. Students always saythat they never really understood what happened to [to my client] until theysaw the animation.
Animations are powerful communication tools that should be used wheneverpossible to persuade juries."

"[Your staff] was extremely efficient, cooperative and gracious and [their]
efforts produced a demonstrative exhibit that we used effectively throughout
our trial. The jury verdict of $3,165,000.00 was, in no small measure, due
to the impact of the demonstrative evidence. You may be sure that we will
call again."
