Week 3 Essay
Background: Occasionally a dying person seems to pay a preliminary visit to their post death state. In Final Gifts, Chapter 8, Callanan writes about these experiences. What can we know about the after death experience has fascinated mankind and been the topic of sacred texts throughout history. You can explore this topic as discussed in the course texts and web research also, for instance, Dr. Elizabeth Kubler-Ross's work on Out of Body Experiences; The Tibetan Book of the Dead; the Egyptian Book of the Dead, or Bertrand Russell essay on “Do We Survive Death?” or he Navajo understanding of death and many more books and essays on the subject.
Your assignment: Using the course texts and internet research which may include references given just above, respond to this question in an essay of about three-six pages:
· Compare the belief systems concerning death for at least three of the religious traditions we have studied so far or others of your choosing. Conclude by stating which of these resonates most strongly with you, and explain why. Your essay should have a minimum of THREE references.
From the Expert: The Death System
In this course, you are working closely with the text
Death, Society, and Human Experience by Robert K. Kastenbaum. The text explores the nature of dying and death in our society from a multiplicity of perspectives. Kastenbaum defines the death system: “We face death alone in one sense, but in another and equally valid senses, we face death as part of a society whose expectations, rules, motives and symbols influence our individual encounters. …Most of us phase in and out of the death systems as circumstances dictate” (p. 75).
Death weaves in and out of our lives from disasters like Hurricane Katrina to the controversy about the war in Iraq to the death of someone we love to the warnings on our medicine vials and late night television ads about life insurance. The fact of death is so integrated into our lives that we rarely are aware of how pervasive the concerns related to it are.
The Functions of the Death System
The death system in a society serves many functions for its citizens. It includes warnings and predictions such as our weather service does during the hurricane season. It makes billions of dollars available for research on new sources of medicine like Gila monster venom treatment for diabetes. It involves the creation of pet cemeteries as increasingly isolated members of society consider their pets as their family. It encourages development of grief counse.

As every life is unique, so each death is unique. The final forces of the human spirit separate themselves from the body in manifold ways.
My mother Sofie’s death was the culmination of a five-year battle against cancer. In her last months, the disease invaded organs throughout her body, attacking the lungs in its final fury. She withered slowly, with the mixed blessing of time to prepare against certain knowledge that death was just around the corner. My father, Philip, lived another 18 years. At age 80, he was outwardly healthy, active, and about to depart on a long-awaited vacation when a heart attack snuffed out his life suddenly, without time for last words or deathbed reconciliations.
As I set to work on this chapter, my 65-year-old neighbor Nicholas gambled for a higher quality of life. To be eligible for a kidney transplant, he elected bypass surgery to strengthen his heart. Doctors warned that his body might not withstand the operation. But Nicholas knew that without taking a chance, he would live only a few years, in debilitated condition. Shortly after the surgery, infection set in, traveling throughout his system and so weakening him that only extreme measures—a respirator to sustain breathing and powerful drugs to elevate his fading blood pressure—could keep him alive.
“Come on, Dad, you can do it,” encouraged Nicholas’s daughter Sasha, standing by his bedside and stroking his hand. But Nicholas could not. After two months in intensive care, he experienced brain seizures and slipped into a coma. Three doctors met with his wife, Giselle, to tell her there was no hope. She asked them to disconnect the respirator, and within half an hour Nicholas drifted away.
Death is essential for the survival of our species. We die so that our own children and the children of others may live. Whe.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

1. DISPOSAL OF THE DEAD
By
Dr Olatunde Ajibola
MBBS(Lagos), MSc Public Health (Bournemouth)
2. DISPOSAL OF THE DEAD
Implications, Methods, Diseases
Associated with Treatment of the Dead
3. Definitions of Death
The concepts of dying, death and being dead are inter-related, with
death being an all encompassing word for the three concepts.
Death: An individual who has sustained either (1) irreversible
cessation of circulatory & respiratory functions , or (2) irreversible
cessation of all functions of the entire brain, including the
brainstem, is dead.
The interval between the step 1 above and step 2, the individual is
said to be dying.
Irreversible cessation of the brain function is now the gold-standard
for diagnosing death.
Persistent Vegetative State(PVS): occurs when the brain is partly
damaged, or irretrievably damaged, with some vital organ functions
being sustained by life support equipment.
4. Implications of Human Deads
Being dead is a rather philosophical speculation.
Being able to read this lecture signify an
important fact: you are all alive!
A Greek philosopher Epicurus reminds us that “so
long as we exist, death is not with us., when
death comes, then we do not exist”.
The thought that the people we love will die,
whether before us or after us, is inevitably
painful.
What is more: It is hard to reconcile ourselves to
the knowledge that we ourselves will finally exit
this mortal coil.
5. Implications cont”d
The dead state brings to an end all activities, projects, relationships
and commitments that give sense & distinctiveness to one’s life.
In humorous mood, death is the deadline for all assignments, and,
the end of the script with no hope of a sequel (unless you believe in
the afterlife).
Treating time as an infinite commodity make some dying people see
death as a frightening process; to those who spend their time wisely,
‘life is long enough’.
A life spent on frivolous pursuits, without any sense of direction, is
a life lacking in authencity.
6. Methods of Dead Disposal
On the whole, dead bodies pose minimal health risk unless they
have died from a highly infectious disease, e.g. cholera.
The form of disposal is normally dependent on the cultural
practices of the population concerned.
Christians and Muslims opt for burial
Buddhists & Hindus opt for cremation
Suspended animation
If the method of disposal chosen is burial, sufficient space would
need to be provided, suitable site, soil conditions and the depth of
the water must be appropriate.
If Cremation is the option sufficient fuel must be available
7. Disposal of Dead Humans in Emergency
Situations
In emergency situations, the collection and disposal of bodies are
urgent because of the possible social and political drama, far more
important than the possible health-related risks.
Therefore, emergency relief teams should focus, primarily, on the
mental health of the community and its needs to carry out the
cultural obligations and traditions to take care of the dead, rather
than potential disease transmission.
8. Disposal of Dead Humans in Emergency
Situations: Disposal of Dead Humans in
Emergency Situations
The widespread belief that corpses pose a risk of communicable
disease is wrong, especially if death resulted from trauma.
Corpses are also unlikely to cause disease outbreaks like typhoid
fever, cholera, or plague, though they may transmit gastroenteritis
or food poisoning syndrome to survivors if they contaminate
streams, wells or other water sources.
Except in cases of hemorrhagic fevers (such as Ebola, Marburg) and
cholera, dead bodies are generally not infectious.
9. Disposal of Dead Humans in Emergency
Situations: Mental Health Risks
The psychological trauma of seeing death on a large scale and the
loss of loved ones is the greatest cause for concern.
Collecting corpses immediately helps to mitigate the above
It must be emphasized---it is not necessary to rush burials and
cremations, as this does not permit for the proper identification &
record taking of the details of the dead.
Rushing burials & cremations, also, does not give the time for the
bereaved to carry out the ceremonial & cultural practices, which
would normally occur after a death.
10. Mortuary Services
Secure morgue facilities for casualties are important following an
emergency, where there is an epidemic, or if burial or cremation is
to be delayed.
A temporary mortuary site should consist of a reception, a viewing
room, a storage chamber not suitable for viewing and a room to
store personal possessions and records.
10 bodies per 10,000 population is the recommended capacity for
a field morgue
Bodies should be stored at 4 Celsius, although this is rarely
possible.
11. Equipment for Mortuary Services in
Major DIsasters
Stainless steel postmortem tables or heavy duty trestle tables
covered with plastic
sheeting.
Wheeled trolleys for transporting bodies within
the mortuary.
Tarpaulin or plastic sheeting for the floor, if it is
not made of concrete.
Heavy-duty black plastic sheeting for
temporary screens.
Refuse bins and bags.
12. Equipment for Mortuary Services in
Major Disasters (cont’d)
Cleaning materials – mops, buckets, cloths,
soap, towels
Disinfectant and deodorizer.
Protective clothing and heavy-duty rubber
gloves.
Translucent plastic body bags 0.1 mm thick
and labels (if epidemic circumstances).
Wall charts to record progress or large poster
boards if there are no walls
13. Identification of Bodies in Emergencies
Records of deaths & funerals need to be kept to monitor mortality
rates and the incidence of disease, to be able to provide timely,
understandable and accurate information to the relatives of the
dead.
Therefore, one of the major challenges of effective management of
dead bodies is their early identification and tagging.
Displaying bodies for identification needs space; 1000 bodies
require over 2000m2.
Identification can be a lengthy process, especially where no
personal documentation is carried.
When relatives and friends of the dead are involved, it must be
remembered that visual identification is not scientific
14. Identification of Bodies in Emergencies
In emergency, situations, this process is even more difficult as it
may be necessary for relatives to view numerous bodies in the hope
that they will make an identification.
The scenario above should be avoided
Where possible, it is important to differentiate viewing a body for
identification from viewing a body for grieving purposes. Separate
locations should be provided for both.
Once identified, a death certificate should be issued, an official
record of death prepared an the body tagged.
With violent deaths, it is also important to record the cause of
death for possible future investigation.
15. Body Disposal in Emergency Conditions:
Burial
Burials in common graves and mass cremations are rarely warranted
and should be avoided.
Burial is the preferred method of body disposal in emergency
situations unless there are cultural and religious observances which
prohibit it.
The location of graveyards should be agreed with the community.
Attention should be given to ground conditions: proximity to
groundwater drinking sources (which should be at least 50m) and to
the nearest habitat (500 m).
An area of at least 1500m2 per 10 000 population is required.
16. Body Disposal in Emergency Conditions
(Cont”d)
The burial site can be divided to accommodate different religious
groups, if necessary.
Burial depth should be at least 1.5m above the groundwater table,
with at least a 1m covering soil.
Burial in individual graves is preferred and can be dug manually.
If coffins are not available, corpses should be wrapped in plastic
sheeting to keep the remains separate from the soil.
Burial procedures should be consistent with the usual practices of
the community concerned
17. Body Disposal in Emergency Conditions:
Cremation
There are no health advantages of cremation over burial but some
communities may prefer it for religious or cultural reasons.
Factors against it are the amount of fuel required by a single
cremation (approx 300kg. wood) and the smoke pollution
caused.
Ideally, cremation sites should be located 500m downwind of
dwellings.
The resultant ashes should be disposed of according to the cultural
& religious practice of the community.
18. ACTIONS IN MEDICAL EPIDEMICS
Specialist medical staff should ideally be the ones handling bodies in
a medical epidemic.
Rather than using lime for disinfection purposes, which has a limited
effect on infectious pathogens, it is better to use chlorine or other
medical disinfectants.
Any vehicles used to transport bodies to burial or cremation sites
during epidemics should also be disinfected after use.
Communities should be tutored on the harmful effect of traditional
washing of the dead.
Also, any large gathering, including a funeral, can be a way of
spreading an epidemic, thus, burial or cremation should take place
soon after death at a site near the place of death with limits placed
on attendance
19. ACTIONS IN MEDICAL
EPIDEMICS:
CHOLERA- Contact with body leads to exposure to cholera vibrios and
requires careful washing using soap and water.
EBOLA- It spreads through bodily secretions such as blood, saliva,
vomit, urine and stools, but can easily be killed with soap and water.
Those dealing with the disposal of bodies require high levels of
protection
TYPHUS & PLAGUE--To avoid infestation with the fleas and lice that
spread these diseases, protective clothing should be worn. Body bags
should be used to store the bodies prior to burial or cremation.
20. SUMMARY: IMPORTANT PRINCIPLES

corpses.
Identify and tag corpses
Provide appropriate mortuary services.
Reject unceremonious and mass disposal of
unidentified corpses.
Respond to the wishes of the family.
Respect cultural and religious observances.
Protect communities from the transmission
of medical epidemics.
