I encourage everyone who visits to read these topics which are still being filled with the countless studies and medical journal articles discussing the medical opinions represented on this site.
Science will catch up eventually, as it always does. [1] the earth is not the center of the universe nor does the sun revolve around the moon, [2] infants do indeed feel pain and therefore most doctors do not operate without anesthesia any longer, [3] FDA recalls drugs every year because they are found too dangerous for the benefits, [4] new studies in the NFL right now are discussing closed head injuries such as that of Natasha Richardson, the actress who died after a skiing accident in 2009, [5] new methods of observation, experimentation and measuring have altered the way scientists believe (such as is Pluto a planet? are there other solar systems and universes? PET scans and fMRIs lead to more knowlege of the brain), [6] new sciences were discovered such as biochemistry, [7] germ theories stopped childbirth fever simply by having physicians wash their hands (a wild idea and it received much scoffing), etc, etc, etc.
This is just another dawn of modern scientific data being collected and examined.
Highly-educated and long-held beliefs been wrong before and proven so by scientists who wouldn't stop using the scientific method, despite ridicule and even excommunication and death.
So, let's enter a new civilized era and usher in scientific change in infant health by promoting differential testing as proof prior to baseless accusations of abuse simply because an injury is present.
(Please feel free to email me if the abstract is all that's available. I might have the entire medical journal available to email to you for your legal advisors' benefit.)

SDH (Subdural Hematoma)Subdural Hematoma is bleeding in a specific area of the brain. I'll define it for the lay person and then be prepared for the proof that it is NOT indicative of SBS necessarily. | 45 | 48 |
