Breast Infection (Mastitis) Begone!Healthy Pregnancy, Baby & Child, Natural Remedies
Did you know that a breast infection, which is so common to nursing mothers, can be easily and inexpensively resolved? Read on!
It doesn't get any better than this. The moment we realize we're pregnant, our lives make a whirling shift and our attention becomes future focused, generational, eternal.
Indeed, my motherly duties snapped to attention 9 months before each of my babies arrived, almost to the day.
Baby's Nutrition
So how do we prepare and treat our baby and ourselves in the early months?
Need I discuss the importance of nutrient-dense foods for Mom? It's absolutely key to what I call "generational well being," in which no amount of prenatal vitamins will substitute for well-executed meals.
Homeopathy for Breast Infection
But for many, this isn't enough. That's when homeopathy comes in.
Consider breast infections, also called mastitis. Many students and clients call me regarding this oft-debilitating infection that can interfere with the nutrition of the baby and the well being of the mom.
The efficacy of homeopathy for breast infection is well documented in medical Materia medicas and repertories. As long as the correct remedy is chosen, it works every time and has done so for over 200 years. In fact, when a woman had mastitis in 1798, she likely chose one of the remedies below, just like today's modern mom.
Not unlike traditional foods, real medicine transcends the centuries. No chemical tinkerings, no shenanigans from the pharmaceutical industry. Just simple, safe and efficacious.
Here are three main remedies to consider for a breast infection, also referred to as mastitis.
- Belladonna 30
- Phytolacca 30
- Hepar sulph 6
Belladonna is the remedy to think of when the breast is very red, hot, deeply painful (particularly when mom is jarred) and swollen. It can even be shiny from swelling. It may be accompanied by fever as well. This is what we call a Belladonna picture.
If this fits the description, Belladonna 30 is taken every 3-5 hours (4 pills or whatever is considered a dose on the bottle). As with most homeopathic remedies for acute situations, the remedy is stopped as soon as there's see significant improvement. If there is no improvement after 5 doses, it indicates that its time to consider another remedy.
If the symptoms are not as angry and extreme, then Phytolacca 30 is likely the right choice. Phytolacca would be used in the same fashion as above. That is, every 3-4 hours until improvement.
Again, it should be noted that once the remedy has acted fully, it should be stopped.
Regardless of the symptoms, Hepar sulph 6 has a history of aiding the healing of mastitis if integrated into the schedule of either of the two other remedies twice daily. That means it would be taken every 3-4 hours but on the off hours from the other single chosen remedy.
Not only has this method been shown to address even the most painful of breast infections, but it may also uproot the propensity for another infection to ensue. But, if one does ensue, now you have your strategy in place.
Homeopathic remedies are safe for mom and baby, inexpensive, easy to take and keeps moms off antibiotics. (The best part.)
Your Take Away
You CAN treat yourself! The ability to heal yourself and family is a tradition that is as old as motherhood itself. I hold that the ultimate female privilege is to become a mother, and our built in sense of duty should be accepted as powerful and palpable.
Join me in linking arms across the globe. One mother bonded to another in defense of our motherly right to raise our families in the fashion we deem decent. No foods of commerce, no drugs of commerce. Just plain horse sense.

I can only find the Belladonna and Sulpher at my health food store. I can't seem to find the Phytolacca. Would the Belladonna be fine to use even if my case is not as severe? It's just a plugged duct.
Thank you for this info!
Since last Friday I have had a plugged milk duct the size of a large grape. I have tried everything that I can think of to get rid of it! I was wondering if these homiopathics would be helpful even if I don't have mastitis yet?
Is there anything else anyone can suggest for me to do?
I have done massaging, nursing in a varity of positions, Vit. C, Cranberry Tablets, Raw garlic 3-4 times a day, lavender essential oil, tea tree oil, cabbage leaves, grated pot, heat pad, loose tooth comb massage in shower, rest, water…what else is there?
Please help!!!

Thanks so much for the links to the transcripts at the top of the post. These are invaluable! Homeopathy is really weird when you first get into it, but when you see the deep healing that it can bring about, you become very enthusiastic about it!
I would have *l-o-v-e-d* to have known about this when I was nursing my babies. I believe that the antibiotics I took for multiple bouts with Mastitis set me up for a systemic yeast problem that caused intense shooting pains in my breast. After asking doctors questions to which they said "ask a lactation consultant," and then seeing a lactation consultant who knew only about yeast problems on outside of the breast, I was fortunate to find a protocol for chronic plugged ducts and mastitis at Dr. Jack Newman's website. I followed the parts of his protocol that did not require a prescription, and followed anti-candida lifestyle changes. That combination was what finally helped. The cabbage leaves were good, but not enough on their own. I am so thankful that I was able to get through these difficult times and continue to nurse for as long as I chose. This was a few years ago, there was so little information out there that I could find that would help. I am glad for the younger moms out there that information like this is becoming more widely known.

I wish I had known these remedies when I nursed my nine babies. The last one was the worst! I don't recall that problem with the first seven.

prescribed homeopathy did the trick for me within an hour
I suffer badly from blocked ducts. Doing simple lymphatic drainage massage on my breast area has helped. Also physiotherapists can use ultra sound therapy to help.
Taking cranberry tablets heals breast infections. Cranberry breaks the bonds (pili) that attach E. coli to the breast membranes. Cranberry also works on other E.coli infections — infections of the bladder and E coli food poisoning.
I enjoyed reading some of the different comments about what worked for different moms. I've had quite a few bouts of mastitis myself. I've found that if treated early, it is easy to improve. My favorite remedy is hot compresses of chamomile tea. Chamomile is a natural antibiotic, and does the trick for me. As already mentioned…. don't stop nursing! If the breast remains full, it will just increase the pain.

i also kicked a case in less than 24 hrs. with echinacea, mega dosing vit. c, and a bit of ibuprofen per midwife's instructions. thank goodness, i'm allergic to antibiotics!
I was very prone to mastitis.Try mixing 1 teaspoon each of apple cider vinegar and honey with a cup of water. If you have mastitis, drink this mix 4 times a day and the mastitis will be gone in 24 hours. To prevent mastitis, consume one cup a day. It worked brilliantly for me.
Yep! My midwife recommended Belladonna and Phytolacca along with echinacea/propolis tinctures and plenty of vit. c, garlic, and warm compresses. It worked great!

Swallow crushed garlic cloves through-out the day and rub peppermint oil on infected area. Works for me when I have a bout. Cut out sugar for a time.
Alison Neri via Facebook
You have got to be kidding me… if you have a bad case of it get the antibiotics
Rachel May Flesher via Facebook
I used cabbage leaves successfully several times. Very helpful to clear up a clogged duct within a few hours.
April Michelle MacKay via Facebook
yes..i had a bit of a brest infection while and when i knew what it was, and that i got a fever (i had seen yer artical) so i whent to bed and coverd myself in blankets (which felt good cause i had chills & was tired) and when i woke up my fevor had broke. ha ha!

Or a hot boiled egg wrapped in a wet rag in your bra. The egg will stay hot for quite a while, and the warm moist heat helps unstoppable the blockage.
I am a dairy farmer and these are some of the main remedies I use on my mamas…although I am an herbalist, I find homeopathics easier and cheaper to administer to the girls, and they are immediately and incredibly effective when I choose the correct remedy.
I also find that they get fewer infections (of course) when they are well nourished, and find that regular use of probiotics seems to prevent such conditions from occuring in the first place.

I read that being stressed and not getting enough sleep makes you probe to mastitis.
I had information expressing the roots of homeopathic is not one that you'd want to be involved in. That dr who study it for years will trash all of their literature after years of studying. I found this information after researching homeopathic. Does any one have any information that confirms or disregards this?
Annemarie Scolari via Facebook
I've used a mixture of goldenseal root and castor oil applied to the breast, wrapped saran wrap around it and applied a hot wet towel around it. That always helped. What seemed to be faster the last time I had it was marshmallow root and I took Oscillo to minimize the symptoms. Cabbage leaf works well to soothe the breast. Nurse, nurse, nurse.
Here's a relevant story posted yesterday about how homeopathy is under attack in California. You can bet that big pharma wants to squash all competition in whatever way possible.
Great information! I have endured over 30 bouts with mastitis in my nursing career and dealt with all of them homeopathically. I more recently found out about echinacea's great ability to help with mastitis and also use that now.
Thanks, Joette!

pack the breast with raw grated potato to draw out the heat. I had double mastitis and the potato pack had me cooler and smaller in 24 hours.

Internally you can also do a yeast and fungal detox followed but super probiotics.

Ginger applied to the breast as well as activated charcoal work well.

I benefited a lot from Bowen Therapy and Reflexology treatment when I had mastitis – gave immediate relief.
As someone else has mentioned, while cabbage leaves and parsley can work to clear up breast infections, they do also dry up your milk. So be cautious.
This is fine, as long as your child isn't dairy-sensitive. It has been hard to find lactose-free homeopathics. My youngest is too sensitive for me to use Hylands, etc.
Erin, what EOs did you use?
joette calabrese
Contact Hahnemann Laboratories in California. They sell the remedies in alcohol. you can add 5 drops of alcohol to an ounce of water and use that instead.
Amy Gault via Facebook
Echinacea tincture is another good remedy. Currently battling a bad case with my 19 month old. Homeopathic arnica has been helpful to me, too.
I have healed myself from 4 breast infections over the course of nursing two boys. I used the above, hot compresses, extra garlic, broth, rest and Acupuncture. When I got a particularly bad case 4 days after my second was born I used fermented turmeric (in kraut) and it worked wonders! Lovely post and I hope more nursing moms realize the ability to heal with out turning to drugs right away.
Calcium deficiency is sometimes a contributor to breast infections. Hot compresses can help (you can do this in the bath if you like). So can nursing the baby on the affected side.
Echinacea is good, and also Vitamin C.
There are also effective herbal treatments: make a tea (fomentation) of 3 parts mullein and one part lobelia, and apply as a compress, cover with plastic and leave on. Comfrey poultices can work, too.
These infections are no fun. And I agree with the author, you CAN treat yourself!
Michelle Curtis via Facebook
I would appreciate if you could add a note to your post. Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC) usually presents as mastitis. This is a very fast spreading aggressive cancer. My friends, Jennifer Starr-Reivitt and Ginny Mason, can share their stories and I am sure they would be happy to. My mother actually died from IBC 10 years ago. You can learn more at http://www.ibcresearch.org Thank you.

I'm hoping not to develop a case this time around because all the home remedies that I tried didn't work out for me in the past (twice) & after 4 days of feeling like death, my husband forced me to the ER to get antibiotics. I am glad to hear that it does work for some people though
joette calabrese
Home remedies are not what i'm advocating here. I'm talking about homeopathy… a solid, data and evidence based medicine used in hospitals from around the world by millions of of people.
Jessica Henderson via Facebook
Fixed mine a couple months ago- LOTS of sleep, hot water bottles, hot showers and gentle massaging and expressing(if the baby doesn't empty it out properly)… Also did I mention sleep?!
This is such valuable information! But I have managed to recover from numerous bouts of mastitis using hot compresses with Epsom salt and Young Living essential oils
Hello Erin,
I recently got over my first bout of mastitis, using hot compresses, massage, nursing, pumping, and YL EOs as well. I used ImmuPower and lavender (applied topically) and Thieves (in a capsule). Which oils did you use? I am fairly new to YL and I want to learn all I can! Thanks!
I used orange and lavender topically. Welcome to the world of EO's. Our family loves them!
Megan Schneider via Facebook
I don't think you need to be concerned about losing your milk if your still nursing/expressing…at least I never had any issues with supply using cabbage leaves/parsley.
Lisa Minca via Facebook
Have you treated yourself with homeopathic remedies for mastitis? Homeopathic remedies never worked for me, maybe they are just good for certain conditions/situations??? I like what I read about them, but in practice they seem to be just bogus…
joette calabrese
Homeopathy always works…as long a s the correct remedy is chosen. And that's the hard part; finding just the right remedy specific to the person, potency and frequency . Don't give up.
Alissabeth Taylor via Facebook
Cabbage leaves are used to dry up your supply…beware!
Deborah De Block via Facebook
Oh! Im so glad you posted this! Im about to read it. Im going through my third case of mastitis breastfeeding my 3 month old second child. I took antibiotics, resentfully, with the second case. I wasnt able to breastfeed my first child much due to poor diet and stress so all this is new to me.
Theresa Teichman via Facebook
and do. not. stop. nursing!
Megan Schneider via Facebook
I also had great success using bruised and boiled fresh parsley and or cabbage leaves applied warm wrapped in a warm damp wash cloth. Never had to go on antibiotics for it!
Mary MacDonald via Facebook
A friend's OB/GYN told her to tuck cabbage leaves into her bra. She tried it, and the problem resolved quickly.
Amy G
How timely, and wonderful information!
I'm currently suffering from a sudden onset of a bout with mastitis. I'm nursing a 19 month old who is cutting molars. I do not have the other homeopathics, yet, but I do have arnica 30C, and that has helped a lot. This is in addition to taking echinacea tincture dosed at 1 drop per 2 pounds bodyweight, every 4 hours while symptoms are severe and tapering down to twice a day until everything clears up.

Alcoholic beverages have been classified as carcinogenic to humans. As alcoholic beverages are multicomponent mixtures containing several carcinogenic compounds, a quantitative approach is necessary to compare the risks. Fifteen known and suspected human carcinogens (acetaldehyde, acrylamide, aflatoxins, arsenic, benzene, cadmium, ethanol, ethyl carbamate, formaldehyde, furan, lead, 4-methylimidazole, N-nitrosodimethylamine, ochratoxin A and safrole) occurring in alcoholic beverages were identified based on monograph reviews by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. The margin of exposure (MOE) approach was used for comparative risk assessment. MOE compares a toxicological threshold with the exposure. MOEs above 10,000 are judged as low priority for risk management action. MOEs were calculated for different drinking scenarios (low risk and heavy drinking) and different levels of contamination for four beverage groups (beer, wine, spirits and unrecorded alcohol). The lowest MOEs were found for ethanol (3.1 for low risk and 0.8 for heavy drinking). Inorganic lead and arsenic have average MOEs between 10 and 300, followed by acetaldehyde, cadmium and ethyl carbamate between 1,000 and 10,000. All other compounds had average MOEs above 10,000 independent of beverage type. Ethanol was identified as the most important carcinogen in alcoholic beverages, with clear dose response. Some other compounds (lead, arsenic, ethyl carbamate, acetaldehyde) may pose risks below thresholds normally tolerated for food contaminants, but from a cost-effectiveness point of view, the focus should be on reducing alcohol consumption in general rather than on mitigative measures for some contaminants that contribute only to a limited extent (if at all) to the total health risk.

I've just come on board to a charity called Pound Rounds. Basically we save dogs from death row. My problem is joining the group 6 months down the track and inheriting a muddled Facebook system that they thought would grow with them.
My advice was create a wordpress "shop window" for doggie adoption then a link to a google sites page for all the online collaboration that is needed- basically a database of foster carers, transport carriers, online chat for emergenicies?
Thank you for reading this far. So I got the WP basic template installed but to save me time does anyone know a template like this:
what's important is that individual dog rescuers can post themselves, pictures and details about foster dogs across all Australia (huge expanse)
At the moment we have:
its saving lives but the communication system we have in place is so counterproductive!
Any ideas?

Most readers come by and read what I and other Examiners have to say and travel elsewhere on their internet journey. But about 1% of you decide to leave a comment, either in praise or fury.
I've been writing a series of guest posts at Watt's Up With That, mostly dealing with how media plays around with the science to put a favored point of view forward. In the meantime, I was also posting comments on the weblog of Michael Tobis, a serious warmist alarmist.
I'd like to share with you the experience of being involved in discussions on both skeptic and warmist websites. The quick bottom line is that I find the skeptics far more congenial than the alarmists.
That is despite the fact that my position is as far away from theirs as it is from the alarmists. However, the skeptics, who abound over at WUWT (although they are not the only visitors there) are more cordial and even tempered. They are nothing like the flat earth denialist rubes that the media paints them as being. I have learned a lot over there, without ever once feeling hectored, insulted or harangued.
Over at Tobis' site, Only In It For the Gold, it has been a different story. It really is the case that if you don't buy their whole package (and I really do not), you are a default denialist whose heresies must be suppressed. The whole range of internet neuroses and borderline pathology is rampant in the comments section there, and I have been insulted, belittled, ridiculed and lectured at while the main points I have tried to make over there have been just unaddressed, perhaps (I think) because they don't have the answers that suit their story line.
I'm a liberal Democrat from San Francisco most of the commenters at WUWT are conservative Republicans. But none of them cheap jerseys china took this difference as a cue to come after me with cyberbricks or cyberbats. Instead we basically discussed the issues.
Most of the commenters on Only In It For The Gold are liberal democrats like myself. They basically make me ashamed of us. There's only so many times you can be called an ignorant pimp before your desire to have a discussion fades.
What I have been writing about at WUWT has been a short series of articles on how the basic symbols used in the media campaigns about global warming wholesale nfl jerseys have been misused. I have written on that frequently enough here that I didn't want to repost them in this space, but you can probably guess what I had to say.
Instead, over at Only In It For the Gold, I have been responding to Michael Tobis' posts about how wrong my writing has been, both at WUWT and here. Suffice it to say he hasn't changed my thinking, nor I his.
I have a few more pieces I want to put up over at WUWT, but I will try and get some different material up here as well. I don't want you to feel neglected.
But if you do, feel free to let me know in the comments.
The research shows clearly that one's Left/Right stance is strongly genetically inherited but nobody knows just what specifically is inherited. What is inherited that makes people Leftist or Rightist? There is any amount of evidence that personality traits are strongly genetically inherited so my proposal is that hard core Leftists are people who tend to let their emotions (including hatred and envy) run away with them and who are much more in need of seeing themselves as better than others two attributes that are probably related to one another. Such Leftists may be an evolutionary leftover from a more primitive past.

"The research shows clearly that one's Left/Right stance is strongly genetically inherited but nobody knows just what specifically is inherited. "
What a crock. The MSM and the two parties are the ones manipulating information and driving this wedge to the point of possible civil war. This is intended. People dont realize that both parties are working the same agenda, only diffrent aspects and strings of it are taken on by the two parties. This is what happens when idiots dont fact check what they are being told by 'official' sources.
" . First, it should be obvious that the manipulation of the messages isn't coming from scientists."
I read this in your last blog but did not have time to respond at the time. The question always at the back of my mind is; where is the message coming from? Who is organizing this? Is CAGW just something that caught the underlying mood of the West and took on a life of its own, or is it some fiendishly clever plot by the Masons, Illuminati, UN, Trilateral Commission, whatever? I hate conspiracy theories myself, but I sure would like to know what the devil is driving this monster! Does anyone out there have any information?
Yes, it is for the carbon credit trading scam. This way corporations can create shell companies that will not use their credit allowance and sell them to their parent companies so they can go on polluting legally. There will be no change in the amount of pollution, that is an unrealistic assumption as production and ultimately profits will suffer. The losers will be we the people who will not be able to afford to use these loopholes and will have our energy needs crushed. Another aspect, is the ones creating this fraud will have just created a new commodity to trade, and of course they know the game and will always have an advantage. We also know the market is manipulated constantly by their own admissions. They being the very bankers and internationalists who hold no fealty to any country. The drive to deprive us all of liberty and wealth is in full gear.
Tom, this experience has had to have a priceless effect on your core. I have always considered us to be more or less in the same boat, only coming from different core leanings and perspectives. I can't buy into party lines any more. I consider them all obnoxiously, woefully incomplete, as divisions based only simple (and ridiculously simplistic) pluralities of divisions, as if all the weightier issues have been decided, when all too often they are simply co opted by both parties to the detriment of everyone. It leaves me wondering what the hell I am sometimes, as "Independent" is so nebulous as to be painted "undecided" or sitting on the fence as I somehow wait for one of two moronic positions to sway me, which utterly fails to describe it. A liberservabilitarian?
Keep up the good fight that you never wanted. Good stuff, Tom.
Another liberal Dem who doesn't swallow AGW hook, line, and sinker? I thought I might be the cheap jerseys shop only one. I enjoyed reading your posts over at WUWT.
I find myself liking the fruits of free trade but not the calls for corporate welfare that seems to pass for free enterprise. And I stand amazed that the "environmental paradox" is perceived as a paradox at all; it shows zero sum game thinking: "of course if humans have better conditions plants and animals must have worse." For me that both could have better conditions is a real possibility.
I have read your series on WUWT, and I liked it (which is not saying that I endorse all your ideas, but that is something different). I have also seen your comments on Bart's. You probably have seen mine. I must say your description of the difference between the comments on WUWT and the warmist sites is striking, and I fully agree with your conclusion. Whatever one says, one is pontificated, belitteled, ridiculed, while none of the factual information one provides is touched upon. The use of really sick (sic!) metafors is striking, as you already did notice in one of your posts. Do we really need a metafor for describing what is happening to the planet? I do not think so.
But it is still fun do comment, regardless of the insults. It is a war and as soon as one places a compromising answer in the comments to AGW believers, the entire army of disciples comes around to chastise one as being the culprit. As such, they have become very predictable, with little innovation in their cheap jerseys responses. They are the rodents that are threading their daily round in the mill in front of the mirror . Silly
Tom, Many of the denialists are conservatives (like RSBL who posted here) who know absolutely nothing about the findings of climate science and have been fed a line paid for by Koch Industries (and others). They have been whipped up into a frenzy (foaming at the mouth like RSBL) convinced that global warming is a hoax and a lie. They care little about truth only about a world wide conspiracy of climate scientists to fool the world into thinking that we need to reduce carbon emissions. The conservative fear is that the complex problem of AGW will require big government solutions, as well as the world wide cooperation of governments. They see AGW first and foremost as a liberal plot. Let's hope that RSBL and others like him do not own guns.
scratch a true believer and as we see here a conspiratorial wack job emerges.
AGW skeptics discern the difference between the hype of apocalyptic global warming the reality that nothing much is happening in the climate. And certainly nothing to be worried about that requires reshaping the world's economy to subsidize windmill and solar panel salesmen.
True believers in AGW cannot deal rationally with the topic of climate science and cling to their falsified dreams of worldwide apocalypse instead of the data.
They resort to relentless lies about skeptics and who they are. Much like early era Catholic fanatics who killed off anyone who dared to disagree with their interpretation of the bible and the power of relics to cure the sick.Articles Connexes:

Synonyms of epidemic in English:
adjectiveBack to top
1 the craze is now epidemic
rife, rampant, widespread, wide-ranging, extensive, pervasive;
global, universal, ubiquitous;
Choose the right word
epidemic, endemic, pandemic
A disease that quickly and severely affects a large number of people and then subsides is an epidemic: throughout the Middle Ages, successive epidemics of the plague killed millions. The word epidemic can also be an adjective: she studied the causes of epidemic cholera. A disease that is continually present in an area and affects a relatively small number of people is endemic: malaria is endemic in (or to) hot, moist climates. A pandemic is a widespread epidemic that may affect entire continents or even the world: the pandemic of 1918 ushered in a period of frequent epidemics of gradually diminishing severity. Thus, from an epidemiologist's point of view, the Black Death in Europe and AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa are pandemics rather than epidemics.

I want to configure my Ubuntu installation to boot into a command-line prompt instead of the Gnome Desktop Environment. I ran the below command to effect this:
sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
It worked as intended and dropped me onto a shell prompt on reboot, BUT a lot of services (e.g network access) weren't running at that point.
They started up when I manually started GDM from the shell prompt.
How do I get Ubuntu to boot into the command shell without GDM, but without disabling other services, or having to manually enable them ?
By removing gdm using update-rc.d, have I changed the runlevel Ubuntu boots into ? I've looked at the Boot-Up Manager GUI in Advanced mode, but couldn't gather much from the Services tab.
Edit: The problem wasn't what I thought it was. I've described the modified issue and the solution in my answer below.
PS: As it stands, the question is misleading though the underlying problem is valid.

This invention is concerned with a means and method for transferring patients from an essentially stationary place of rest such as from a hospital bed to a movable stretcher (also known as a gurney) and vice versa.
In homes for the elderly, hospitals or other places dealing with healthcare of people, the moving about of patients by means of a gurney is an inevitable necessity, however, such task has to be carried out safely and without undue inconvenience to the patient and to the people handling such patient.
Many such means have been suggested or used, as disclosed by these references of interest.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,265,432 (Tabbert) discloses a hospital stretcher being equipped with a top which moves in a lengthwise direction if the foot end of the top is dropped. There are no provisions indicated for moving a patient from bed to stretcher etc.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,304,116 (Stryker) teaches a wheeled carriage capable to support a removable stretcher. There is no disclosure facilitating the moving of a patient from bed to such stretcher.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,341,246 (Lavallee) is concerned with wheeled hospital stretcher comprising a platform or litter which may be tilted sideways and which has on each side retractable guard rails; at least one end of the litter being equipped with a movable head rest. No mention whatever is made of the means and method of this invention for transferring a patient from bed to the stretcher, etc.
U.S. Pat. No. 3,493,979 (Koll et al) deals with a patient transfer device consisting of two rotatable belts; the device may be placed adjacent to a patient on a bed and cause the patient to be lifted onto the device. The device may be retractable into a stretcher type vehicle. This is a complicated and costly apparatus which is belived not to eliminate the use for lifting a patient onto a device of substantial thickness. No similarities in construction between this disclosure and the present invention are apparent.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,019,772 (Lee) shows a hospital stretcher vehicle having lifting means for a stretcher and the like far enough apart to receive an operating table, etc. between such means allowing lowering a patient onto such table without manually lifting a patient. Nowhere is there any disclosure of the means and method of this invention.
It is believed that the present invention can accomplish the stated intend and that of the above reference in a simpler, less expensive yet more efficient way.
It is therefore the object of this invention to provide a transfer sheet for a gurney and similar vehicle;
It is another object of this invention to facilitate improved transfer of patients or people unable to move at their own ability or risk from an essentially stationary place such as bed or operating table, to a gurney and vice versa;
It is still another object of this invention to allow such transfer of patients without the need to lift patients for any extended period of time, over a distance or to any undue height;
A further object of this invention rests with the ability to readily modify existing gurney type equipment in order to achieve the advantages of this invention.
Other objects of this invention shall become apparent in the description and drawings below.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a gurney having a transfer sheet of this invention attached thereto, the latter being stretched out;
FIG. 2 shows means for fastening transfer sheet to the side of a gurney;
FIG. 3 provides a simplified side view of a transfer sheet of this invention being extended from the gurney and stretching over the width of a bed (only two layers of mattresses shown).
In FIG. 1 there is represented a simple gurney 10 equipped with platform 11 the latter being supported by columns 16 which are resting on base frame 17 which also carries four multidirectionally movable wheels 18; to one side of platform 11 is fastened transfer sheet 12 at points 14 of platform reinforcing bar (not shown in FIG. 1); transfer sheet 12 carries at the side opposite to the platform a holding bar 13 which extends beyond the width of said transfer sheet allowing handling and securing the transfer sheet as well as, if so desired, rolling up of transfer sheet when not in use.
FIG. 2 indicates how transfer sheet 12 may be fastened to the side of platform 11 by means of a reinforcing bar 15 by overlapping said bar 15 with sheet material sufficient to allowing transfer sheet to be attached; e.g., sewn onto itself at point 19 therefore forming a loop around bar 15.
In similar fashion, holding bar 13 may be held in place at the other end as is demonstrated in FIG. 3, which shows how transfer sheet 12 may be placed in its outstretched state from platform 11 over a bed, as indicated in a stylized form by mattresses 21; it is recognized that preferably transfer sheet 12 is wide enough to cover the full width of the bed. In an abbreviated manner, FIG. 3 also indicates platform 11 being supported by column 16, and transfer sheet 12 having been fastened to one side of platform 11.
As already mentioned, the bar 13 serves several purposes such as a means for holding, pulling or rolling up transfer sheet 12, however, as much as such a bar 13 is a preferred embodiment of this invention, other means for pulling or stretching transfer sheet 12 may be chosen such as loops, rings, ties or the like.
Transfer sheet 12 may be prepared from woven fabric or solid flexible sheeting; for the preferred fabric construction the well known fibers may be employed such as based on cotton, sisal, cellulosics, polyester, polyamide, polyacetate, polyacrylate, polyurethane, aramide or combinations thereof; the sheeting type transfer sheet may also be prepared from one or more of the above mentioned synthetic materials.
The holding bar 13 may be prepared from steel, aluminum, wood or plastic, the latter preferably containing metal rod reinforcement.
Where the transfer sheet is attached to the platform or carries a holding rod and is therefore folded onto itself at the fastening points, the overlapping portions may suitably be held together by sewing, stapling or any kind of fastening device that is safe, not detrimental to the patient's health and comfortable to the body upon contact. Although in the Figures it is indicated that the transfer sheet is fastened onto a reinforcing bar 15 of platform 11, other means for having the gurney carry a transfer sheet may be chosen, in each case care to be taken that the transfer sheet of this invention be kept in as close as possible proximity to the platform of the gurney. The transfer sheet may also alternatively be made an intergral part of a sheet or fabric cover serving as platform of the gurney (see also below).
It will be understood that the instant descriptions and drawings concentrate on the essentials of this invention with the result that certain items have not been displayed, yet are believed to be well within the public domain and understanding; such items include brakes or locks for the gurney, means for raising/lowering or tilting the platform of said gurney. For that matter, no particular shape for the platform is implied, although usually such platforms are essentially rectangular. In addition, a gurrney may be equipped on either long side with a transfer sheet of this invention. Furthermore, the platform may be of solid construction such as made from wood, metal or plastic or may comprise a sheet type material made for instance from fabric stretched on a frame permanently or detachably.
Whichever type of gurney and means for equipping such gurney with a patient transfer sheet of this invention, the method for transferring a person such as a patient from a bed or similar place remains essentially the same and comprises extending the transfer sheet under the person over the width of such bed, pulling the end of the transfer sheet having the holding bar or other holding means over the person and continuing pulling causing the person to safely roll onto the gurney. Once the transfer is completed, the transfer sheet may optionally be secured on the other side of the gurney thereby providing means for holding the patient on the gurney (see FIG. 3 item 20).
In order to transfer the patient or person to the bed or other place of rest, essentially the reverse above procedure is employed; i.e., the transfer sheet is removed from the person and laid across the bed, the patient is either rolled or pulled across the transfer sheet onto the bed and finally the transfer sheet is removed from under the patient.
It should be understood that the descriptions and drawings are for the purpose of illustration only, modifications, equivalents and variations are considered to fall within the scope of the appended claims.

Longer Tamoxifen Use Helps Breast Cancer Survival »
"Dec. 5, 2012 -- Doubling the time that breast cancer patients take tamoxifen cuts the risk that the cancer will come back and further lowers the risk of dying of the disease, a new study shows.
The study is expected to change the way"...
Read the Longer Tamoxifen Use Helps Breast Cancer Survival article »
Clinical trials have been conducted with ARIMIDEX, up to 60 mg in a single dose given to healthy male volunteers and up to 10 mg daily given to postmenopausal women with advanced breast cancer; these dosages were tolerated. A single dose of ARIMIDEX that results in life-threatening symptoms has not been established. There is no specific antidote to overdosage and treatment must be symptomatic. In the management of an overdose, consider that multiple agents may have been taken. Vomiting may be induced if the patient is alert. Dialysis may be helpful because ARIMIDEX is not highly protein bound. General supportive care, including frequent monitoring of vital signs and close observation of the patient, is indicated.
Pregnancy And Premenopausal Women
ARIMIDEX may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman and offers no clinical benefit to premenopausal women with breast cancer. ARIMIDEX is contraindicated in women who are or may become pregnant. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women using ARIMIDEX. If ARIMIDEX is used during pregnancy, or if the patient becomes pregnant while taking this drug, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to a fetus or potential risk for loss of the pregnancy [see Use in Specific Populations].
ARIMIDEX is contraindicated in any patient who has shown a hypersensitivity reaction to the drug or to any of the excipients. Observed reactions include anaphylaxis, angioedema, and urticaria [see ADVERSE REACTIONS]This monograph has been modified to include the generic and brand name in many instances.

2 Item(s)
Likes: Nice material, seem to be well made.
Dislikes: The sizing is way off. I needed to return the product. If purchasing this product go at least one size bigger than chart. The 150s are also a little to light weight in my mind for anything but a cool NW summer night.
Likes: Good construction.
Dislikes: Size runs much smaller than Ibex size chart.

Unanswered: setValue of a combobox with valueField
This is my model for my combo
Ext.define('ExtJS.myApp.ComboModel', { extend: 'Ext.data.Model', alias: 'widget.combomodel', fields: [ { name: 'ID', type: 'int' }, { name: 'title', type: 'string' } ] });

this.myComboBox = Ext.create('Ext.form.ComboBox', { store: this.comboStore, queryMode: 'local', displayField: 'title', valueField: 'ID' });
{"ID":"111","title":"Ext Page 1"}
What would I have to do so that the combobox displays displayField while setting valueField

Are you setting the value *before* the store loads? this problem is an indication that you probably are.https://moduscreate.com/wp-content/t...es/favicon.png

29 Apr 2013 5:27 AM #4
Girish... thanks for your answer... I tried using select. It show up as '111' on the combobox. I actually want to show 'Ext Page 1'. And then when I try to save the value of the combobox. I want to save '111'. but either doing getRawValue or getValue gives me the displayField.

I know this is super easy, I just couldn't find it.
I'd like the first row in an excel document to be the "title" field. I want that:
- Whenever I scroll down, this row will remain fixed
- I can sort and filter according to the different columns.
How do I accomplish that?

We hear a lot of stories about bricks and mortar re-designing their business models to face the new challenges prompted by the "digital". I am not sure about you, but I generally can't help and think that all these noble efforts are commendable, although lack the true digital spirit. Let me explain. Firstly, what do we really mean by Digital? Have you noticed that in the mainstream digital equates to mobile, SEO, analytics, web platforms, and so on. And on. Don't get me wrong. All these tools are necessary. However, digital is more than the way you generally execute it, right? Digital, from my perspective, is a form of literacy. Yes, it is a new way of thinking brought about by the tremendous progress of technology. There are people born in the digital world and they naturally adopt it and learn how to communicate through it. Most of us, however, are adapting to this new world because we are still transitioning into it.
This is bringing about a revolution that many fail to grasp fully. In the book that I review this month, Paul Boag delineates an interesting parallel. When electricity first started to power industry, it did not change things overnight. Most companies had a chief electricity officer :-) dedicated to managing such an important part of the business. Today, after two decades into the WWW, we still see similar setups in digital as used to exist for electricity. This explains the transition.
Equally important is the effect that the digital is having on companies' strategies. In the next instalments I will start deconstructing the 'digital' to highlight its major components and how these can be combined in innumerable ways to generate truly customer engaging experiences.

Couldn't find similar questions:
I'm currently designing my app and after that I will build it with Xcode 4.2. My question is what iOS version should I use - iOS4 or iOS5?
I was trying out storyboard and ARC, so it would be great to build the app with iOS5, but I don't know if it will be better to use iOS4 to reach more users?
What are your advices?
Merry XMas! :)

Hey, I'm Tanya!
Vancouver, Canada · Member since December 2012
Cirque du Soleil performer!
I'm lucky enough to get to do what I love for a living, and apart from that being "circus" I'm pretty normal!
I love reading (any kind of trash will do, I love sci-fi/fantasy but will also read anything put in front of me, it's my version of TV).
I love good coffee, I adore better tea, and am damn fond of cooking and eating good food - "anything that's stopped crawling" is how I phrase it, which basically means I love trying new foods and cuisines.
It doesn't sound as exciting as it could, but it keeps me happy =)
Oh, and I used to be a nuclear engineer.

I'm experimenting with my first setup of MS virtual desktop virtualization and have hit a problem I can't get over. I switched over from using the gui to powershell to try and identify the issue. It occurs when I try and create the Desktop collection from the template.
What I have is:
- 1 hyper-v on win 2012 R2 (HyperVServer)
- 1 win 2012 Std server (RDServer) which will have/has each of the other roles involved.
- DCs are our normal DC's in the office here.
- 1 vm with win7sp1pro, patched and updated the integration tools and then sysprepped
- The servers are in spanish
NOTE: I have noticed mention of installing win7 enterprise, which I hope is not a requirement for this to work as I only have pro licenses to experiment with. I can't find this mentioned as being a requirement...
From the RDServer I execute the following:
new-RDVirtualDesktopCollection -CollectionName myVDIPool -PooledManaged
-Virtual DesktopTemplateName VDIBaseWin7
-VirtualDesktopTemplateHostServer hypervserver.mydom.com
-VirtualDesktopAllocation @{"hypervserver.mydom.com"=1}
-StorageType localstorage
-ConnectionBroker RDServer.mydom.com
-VirtualDesktopNamePrefix msVDI
which responds (in spanish - I'll translate below) with
No se concedió acceso a la unidad organizativa CN=Computers,DC=mydom,DC=com. ¿Desea pasarlo por alto y continuar?
[S] Sí [N] No [U] Suspender [?] Ayuda (el valor predeterminado es "S"): s

+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Write-Error], WriteErrorException

It asks to grant access to the computers.mydom.com ou - ok, no problem. But it then fails with "No se pudieron obtener detalles del escritorio virtual para VDIBaseWin7 del servidor HyperVSrv.mydom.com" which translates as:
Unable to obtain details for the virtual desktop for VDIBaseWin7 on server hypervsrv
Cannot obtain details for the virtual desktop for VDIBaseWin7 on server hypervsrv
obviously the command is trying to do something remotely with hyperv, but I cannot work out what.
Does anyone have any idea what this command may be attempting to do when it fails? If I had an idea of what it was trying to do I could work out what was wrong, but this doesn't give much info.... 'cannot obtain details' isn't the most helpful of errors.
edit: I've tried trawling through the powershell code in C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\RemoteDesktop and other places looking for the source to the function to try and work out what its doing, but no luck, can't find it anywhere.

Abstract"We propose to conceptualize and design a deep offshore wave-power floating system "Wave Carpet" that will¿ Have overall low life cycle cost due to Integrated design,¿ Be rapidly deployable,¿ Be easier to maintain and have inherent reliability by design,¿ And also ensure better steady power output from the randomly fluctuating input wave power source using built in energy storage and an internal electric grid.¿ Independent of wave direction and ensures better short crested sea performances.¿ Low power dynamically positioned device,¿ Non-corrosive maintenance free hull design,¿ Self-propulsion by advanced controls with minimal tug power.¿ Use of device as a wave damper thereby sharing the cost of power generated. Once successful this concept will act as wave dampers to protect crucial offshore structures, aircraft carriers, MOB's etc. in addition to providing power. This dual power and damping nature of this device will make the cost of power attractive even intoday's lop-sided costing for power from polluting sources. We also envision the wave carpet to be used for recreational purposes in the ocean like an ocean trampoline. The multi-functional use of this device should trigger private offshore firms anddefense contractors to take a look at this design. We intend to sell of the design to those who want to mass-produce them."

Definition of localism in English:
noun[mass noun]
1Preference for one's own area or region, especially when this results in a limitation of outlook: politics have been dominated by localism and authoritarianism
More example sentences
- With the exception of certain, fully-gentrified areas, localism and tribalism reign, provincial and backward attitudes dominate.
- The pressures for uniformity may well have backfired, encouraging a stubborn and defensive localism as a result.
- His imagination had to unlearn its intense partiality and localism; his tutor apparently assumed that already as young children we have learned narrow sectarian types of loyalty.
1.1 [count noun] A characteristic of a particular locality, such as a local idiom or custom: her parents drilled the localisms out of her speech as a child
More example sentences
- The appearance of localisms does not negate globalization.
- Nonetheless, the localisms introduced lingering friction in the international discourse, which has been compounded by the US not adopting 'neo-liberal' either, because of its own peculiar left-wing connotations of 'liberal'.
- She tried out one of the localisms she had heard.
localist noun& adjective
- Example sentences
- The real political debate is between the centralisers and the localists.
- That's right, though the Founding Fathers were always worried about localist emotions taking over a political process that they believed should be rational-legal.
- This argument at first appears to be localist, since it's modeled after the localist argument that if you don't like local mores and laws, you can always move.

I'm currently trying to set an additional type box where i can type information over to the "LEFT" of the photo for description information rather than just under it. I'd like to keep the current description that I have under it that says "13,000 Sq. Fit. Apple Valley, CA" while also being able to have a description box to the left of the photo. The question is, how do I get the box information over to the left? Is there a specific type of HTML code i can insert and then type in what I wish to type?
I've set up these attachement pages from the gallery option and each "project" is set to an attachement page, not sure if that makes a difference or not, but if anyone can help me out, please. Could really use it right about now. Feel free to email me at [moderated - the forum does not provide support via email]. Thank you in advance and I hope i can find some assistance on this forum.

I LOVE free online libraries of obscure antiquarian (public domain) books. I've found some amazing books I'd like to excerpt, link, reference, write about on my site. Ideally, I'd include at least some of the pages extracted, and/or a quick way for readers to see or download the rest of the book. Any ideas on the best way to do this?
I see on Open Library that there's an API, which is totally confusing to me:
http://openlibrary.org/developers/api ... Do I need something like this? (I had to look up what an API is, so that tells you something.)
(Should I consider "mirroring" some of these resources?)
Thanks in advance!! :)

Radiation and Diffraction Effects of Convex and Concave Domes in an Infinite Baffle
The convex dome has a rather smooth pressure response which decreases in the high-frequency region of the reproducing range. The concave dome has a wide peak in this range and has a larger radiation resistance than the convex dome. The sound waves from a circular line source around a convex or concave dome are diffracted by an amount which is enough to cause intermodulation distortion in an actual loudspeaker.
