Leopantro: lol. i believe nobody is above making a mistake and efficiency in teamwork. when faced with a patient i can do the work of a nurse or a cleaner, i don't really care. it's the patient's return to proper health that is important to me. then i move to the next patient.

but i guess it depends on your outlook at life.

sorry about that.
oh know! i missed the trap grin grin. I wanted to test if you will take offense to justify that doctors are egoistic but you proved me wrong. This is a good incidence to confirm that some doctors are quite humble people. I made a mistake too in my choice of words but some doctors who saw it treated it as an ignorance instead of correcting me then i took offense to defend it even though i knew i was wrong. It was after that they started seeing it as an error. But at last i admitted my wrongs when one them spoke very reasonably. YOU ARE WELCOME SIR.

Leopantro: okay, let me call you out here.

I'm a doctor in that hospital.
1 . FMC owerri has two photocopying centers, the ARD common room and the IT center. the IT center has three photocopying machines and it's a business center which opens from 9am to 6pm and is still running as up this morning.

2. the photocopying center in the ARD common is run and serviced by the ARD. however, anyone can photocopy in the center. because it is in the ARD common room, non doctors are asked not to enter the common but to pass their request through the window to the sales girl to photocopy. this arose because lab technicians use to sit in that common room and meet their patients there, making the patient assume they were doctors as well. Nurses, patients and other health workers photocopy in the ARD center because it is cheaper.

3. the Alvan college of technology is next door an da strolling distance to the FMC and there are so many business centers in that school

4. Soldiers have NEVER, EVER beat up any doctor in that center, at least over the past 3 years . during the last strike the state director of the SSS mediated and over the crisis in that hospital.

5. it was the " notorious doctors" as you call them that revolted against the management of that hospital that eventually got the management to pay back a deduction that was made from all [b]staffs [/b]in that hospital that took 7 months to pay back.

you can lie sometimes but not all the time.

Quelme: please don't mind those overrated physicians.
I am a pharm but u see i think everyone is important in the health system. The doctors have forgotten that they use drugs to treat patients or does their training include drug productions. If in the World today all pharms stop producing drugs, what alternative is left with the doctors to use? Herbs? when they are not native doctors. come to think of it if all us studies medicine and become doctors, who will be the other things including the patients. On a lighter note; if all patients should go on strike by refusing to go to the hospitals which is not possible medical doctors may become vet. doctors if that happens grin grin.that's to show that even the patients who don't work in the hospitals are equally important(least to say other health workers) because without them doctors won't treat animals/trees after all . please, lets respect other peoples professions while we all know our limits. sometimes i am tempted to pick up DE form and enroll for medicine because of the way our doctors are over-celebrated here as if other professions are not relevant. May be i will consider that option if all this hullabaloo continues grin grin
HealthRe: Doctors’ Strike Cripples Hospitals Nationwide by Elythron16zero4:
armadeo: I see you like playing with words so here goes.



Now look at this [b]Varicella(chickenpox): The prognosis for an individual with varicella is good. The diseasse runs its course in 2 to 3weeks. complications may include secondary bacteria infections of the skin as a result of scratching open lesions, thrombocytopenia,arthritis,hepatitis and Reye's syndrome.



at this point we agree that the patient has chicken pox with a good prognosis despite possible complications.



a doctor who fails to associate these signs with this disease even after diagnosis


this is where you confuse me. a diagnosis has been made for chicken pox so all associated complications are considered. how will a dr make a diagnosis and not make consideration for possible complications beats me. A disease condition isnt just a single entity most times multiple symptoms make it up hence the need for history taking to rule out.

lets take the post further

a[b] doctor who fails to associate these signs with this disease even after diagnosis and gives a completely different medication has formed a wrong opinion with the disease in question.[/b]

this Dr who makes one diagnosis and treats something else shocked shocked shocked shocked

so again...

a doctor who fails to associate these signs with this disease may be common with other diseases but where it is obvious that it is for this disease and the doctor gives very wrong opinion and gives medications based on his wrong opinion


at this point bolded above this Dr failed to associate signs to a disease after diagnosis. my question at this point is what was the diagnosis?
here i believe lies the issue. is it a diagnosis of chicken pox if yes then the patient has a good prognosis, ( because good prognosis has been tied to chicken pox as you said yourself)

however if the patient chicken pox and is treated for something else (QUACKERY huh??) and fails to get better does that mean the prognosis for chicken pox is wrong, NO!! because the chicken pox hasn't been managed as it should. where it properly managed the patient should have a good outcome (prognosis).

Lets take it a step further as you said there are other diseases that could have the complications listed. lets assume this patient also doesn't have chicken pox but lets say herpes simplex or drug eruptions and he is been managed for chicken pox and came out bad.

The prognosis for chicken pox is still good as outlined but in this patient the diagnosis was wrong therefore tying a good prognosis of chicken pox to him was also wrong ab initio. so the problem here isn't the wrong prognosis but the wrong diagnosis.

Comprende........
grin grin Needless dissipating your energies fruitlessly, there is no need beating about the bush. ab initio i do know the context of the word usage was not ideal but you know what,on like others who tried to correct me with insolence you were about the only person who spoke from knowledge sharing and very reasonable. Even with my insistence though i knew i was wrong but you have not descended to expletives and i quite appreciate that. Thank you. I actually chose to escalate this argument when i saw that those trying to correct me from inception were merely trying to make a caricature of themselves and not me. This is especially with the insistence that i should explain the meaning of faulty/wrong prognosis. If they have said did you mean diagnosis? i would have concurred but they are making it sound as if i don't know the meaning of the word i used not that they are seeing it as a mistake or misused of words. one of them said i have no medical inclination and that the word was grammatically wrong. That was why i became exasperated and neck bent to defend the word and now they are all tired and not responding again. That is what you get when you try to correct people by mockery. Prognosis for all diseases are already known before hand once the disorder is identified.That is why it is pro>before and gnosis>knowing i.e before a disorder comes we know what the prognosis of that disorder will be. without running a test if you ask a doctor/pharmacist/an allied health worker to tell you the prognosis of mumps for example, he/she with a good knowledge of the disease etiology will be able to tell you because he/she already knows it. I am sure some Pharmacist on this platform knows that the context of that word usage is truly wrong but kept mute because those spotting the error are trying to be egoistic about it. In my view prognosis are standards like formularies and pharmacopeias were you can look for drug info so before any diagnosis is carried out the prognosis is already in place. It is when the doctor identifies the disorder that he can now link the signs and symptoms with the prognosis and then recommend the appropriate drugs. Truly there are no wrong/faulty prognosis unless one is giving the prognosis of disease A for disease B then it becomes wrong which still support my argument which is a fallacy. In all i thank you for being reasonable and for not seeing me as one who didn't know but one who made a wrong use of the word .

centje: The letters in capital wasn't part of your post when i quoted it. You edited it. And that's why i decided to post again.

The other posters who picked that part of post did so because the context in which you used the word prognosis was wrong. Why i won't take time to explain further, the meaning and use of prognosis and diagnosis, is because from all your posts so far you don't know these medical words and how they are used. At the same time, you have refused to learn. What makes your attitude on this thread different from the egotistical attitude you accuse doctors.

I will allow you to enjoy your 'ego' till you're ready to learn, then i will explain.

babat89: Diagnosis-which you meant to say- tells the CAUSE of a disease (bacterial, viral...) and what the disease is.

Prognosis, tells the COURSE of a disease- how it will progress/develop/evolve. Will he die? Will he get better? Any disabilities? Something like that
ok why are the signs of a disease included in its prognosis? IN THIS CASE;The prognosis for an individual with varicella is good. The diseasse runs its course in 2 to 3weeks. complications may include secondary bacteria infections of the skin as a result of scratching open lesions, thrombocytopenia,arthritis,hepatitis and Reye's syndrome. Is it not to be able to identify the disorder and profer appropriate solution which includes drug prescriptions. I think you are looking at prognosis only from the point of its forecasting meaning. How about its meaning on the formation of opinion on its etiology which may equally be gotten wrong by a doctor. PLEASE ELUCIDATE. Again realising that without a diagnosis there cannot be a prognosis, how is it that i am out of context. With an end we can know the beginning of a thing. no bi so?

HealthRe: Doctors’ Strike Cripples Hospitals Nationwide by Elythron16zero4: 9:27am On Jul 05, 2014
centje: yes, doctors makes mistakes, sometimes. Like pharmacists, Doctors are also humans. Just like a pharmacist can make mistakes so can a doctor.

It is also true that doctors take most of the blame for most mistakes made in patient care so also does pharmacist take less of the blame. It just shows which shoulder carries most of the responsibilities of patient care. If Mr president can get rewards and honors due for him, for taking up the country's responsibilities why would a doctor be denied his. Why won't other healthcare workers keep to their various responsibilities and take the rewards and honors due for such responsibilities.
Well, all these are attempt by you to shift attention. The issue at hand is 'faulty prognosis' in relation to the context you used it.

So, I quoted you again so that we re-orient the discussion devoid of emotion and deviation of attention. To you, doctors jump to prescribe based on prognosis before diagnosis. Some people have tried explaining this thing to you, in dept, but the same 'ego' you tag doctors won't allow you to accept your mistake, to learn and move on.
please read my post above and explain how it justifies your stance on this. ANYWAY THANKS FOR ADMITTING THAT DOCTORS CAN BE WRONG, THAT IS THE CRUX OF MY ARGUMENT BUT YOUR PEOPLE ONLY PICKED ON THE USE OF THE WORD PROGNOSIS IN TRYING TO RUBBISH MY STANCE ON THE POINT RAISED DUE TO ""HIGH SHOULDER SYNDROME" EQUAL TO EGO .

you are confusing me the more
armadeo: before a prognosis can be considered a diagnosis MUST have been made so if a wrong diagnosis is made it follows that the prognosis following that would be wrong. however if a diagnosis is made then the prognosis is ALMOST a guarantee depending on what studies have shown.


e.g stroke patients have a 70% chance of survival (an example not actual figures) then the prognosis is that out of every 10 patients with stroke 7 would survive. so this is in play once a diagnosis of stroke is made, however if the patient doesn't have a stroke and is misdiagnosed and given same prognosis isn't it wrong from the onset. what is wrong here the prognosis or the diagnosis.

the above post is just for example

stop playing with words not all readers here are put off with links or long drawn explanations.








only after a diagnosis is made can a prognosis come into play therefore there is literally no such thing as a faulty prognosis because a prognosis cant be faulty it is iron clad with respect to the disease in question. however if a diagnosis is wrong the prognosis for that particular patient as informed by the dr is also wrong.

There is no such thing as faulty prognosis only faulty[/b] wrong diagnosis.


1)defines it as an opinion, based on medical experience of the likely development of a disease or illness;(2) the judgement about something is likely to develop in the future


i believe that i have explained however info me if more clarification is required. sorry about the exclamation.
if you say there is no wrong prognosis, how come you said this [b]however if a diagnosis is wrong the prognosis for that particular patient as informed by the dr is also wrong. Is it a contradiction? Now look at this Varicella(chickenpox): The prognosis for an individual with varicella is good. The diseasse runs its course in 2 to 3weeks. complications may include secondary bacteria infections of the skin as a result of scratching open lesions, thrombocytopenia,arthritis,hepatitis and Reye's syndrome. Going by the above analogy, a doctor who fails to associate these signs with this disease even after diagnosis and gives a completely different medication has formed a wrong opinion with the disease in question. although some of these signs may be common with other diseases but where it is obvious that it is for this disease and the doctor gives very wrong opinion and gives medications based on his wrong opinion, do you say that is a correct prognosis? since you are saying there is nothing like wrong/faulty prognosis, can we also deduce from your comment that there is nothing like a correct prognosis grin grin

babat89: My friend atimes its best to keep quiet instead of displaying ur level of ignorance.
Development- means how something evolves or the course it will take.
Prognosis- from 2 words: pro and gnosis.
Pro- before/ fore
Gnosis- knowledge
Prognosis- foreknowledge, in this case of how a disease will develop (evolve, grow...)
No one is a know it all. Stop the agidi
keep quiet on what? that doctors are right all the time. Thank God you said nobody knows it all. your definition of those words has not helped me in any way because i gave same before so spare yourself that deal. if a doctor says that the etiology of the development of a disease or illness like diphtheria was caused by varicella-zoster [/i]virus(vzu) whereas it was caused by [i]Cornebacteriun [i]diphtheriae [/i]is that a correct opinion about that disease and this may form the basis for his drug prescription.

it is not wrong. it's you doctor on this platform that are trying to cover the fact that sometimes you guys can be wrong. can there be a wrong prognosis without a wrong diagnosis? I asked that when a doctor says the development of a disease was caused by a virus whereas it was caused by a bacteria, does that represent a correct opinion? i want to know. none of you are seeing it from my point of view you are claiming i am ignorant because you felt doctors knows it all. i will make no further comment on this but be it known to all doctors that sometimes you guys can make mistakes and give wrong medications to your patients but for your egos you people will not admit it. That is the point i am making especially that the post that generated this argument condemned all pharmacist with one incidence that only God knows how true that they don't know their jobs.

HealthRe: Doctors’ Strike Cripples Hospitals Nationwide by Elythron16zero4:
infolekan: I'm sure you have also tried to google the word faulty prognosis and was surprised to discover that it is actually a wrong word.
While it might not really call into question anything about your medical inclination, it however does call into question your ability to speak good English which doesn't mean squab as we say in Nigeria
I am really surprise at the type of doctor you are and i also pity those patients at your mercy that is if you are even a doctor. Your post really shows that there are some idiots as doctors in the medical fields. People like you are one of the many consolations those who cannot study medicine have and that gives them the courage to proceed in studying such courses. I even thought you carried out an extensive findings on the word FAULTY PROGNOSIS before replying this post but i was wrong to see that you did not. There are a thousand and one places where such word were used in the internet. Get your facts right. what is the difference between a wrong prognosis and a faulty prognosis? that you consider it a wrong English, we don't need a professor of English language to know that this word is correct. I challenge you and your cohorts to subject it to a public opinion and lets see who is wrong here. Again, you won't tell me that a wrong opinion on the development of a diseases made by a doctor does not in its entirety amount to a faulty/wrong prognosis. If a disease development is caused by a virus and a doctor says it is caused by a bacteria, is that a correct opinion? What do you call that; a correct prognosis ? Numbskull .May God save our patients from doctors of your likes if at all you are one.

where do I start from;
prognosis according to Batman medical dictionary is a prediction or forecast of the course or outcome of a disorder/disease/illness.
Oxford advance learners dictionary defines it as an opinion, based on medical experience of the likely development of a disease or illness; the judgement about something is likely to develop in the future.
Diagnosis according to the same source is the process of identifying a disorder by examining its signs and symptoms;an identification of a disorder reached by such a process.
Going by the above it is evidence that diagnosis leads to prognosis because a disorder is first identified before its effect/outcome can be predicted. for example, when patients tells you what they feel then you relate that to the signs and symptoms of a particular ailment/kinds of illness which helps you to identify the disorder during clerking. for further confirmation patients are sent to the laboratory.
Now having identified the disorder, your ability as a doctor to relate the effects of the disorder or what lead to it is germane in knowing the type of medication to prescribe to either cure, treat/manage the patient. where a doctor forms a wrong opinion/gives a faulty prediction and then gives a wrong medication based on that amounts to a faulty/wrong prognosis. sometimes doctors give wrong opinion about an illness and then give prescriptions based on the wrong opinion. An instance is were a friend was told that an inflammation on a part of his body was likely going to lead to cancer and was booked for chemotherapy but on a second thought to visit another physician it was discovered that its an infection that lead to the inflammation.
If a doctor cannot know the outcome of a disorder/it's effect, how can he identify the disorder after diagnosis. Now i want you, phantomi and your cohorts to disprove this argument;providing credible evidence that it is wrong. NL are taking note of the crop of some doctors we have in Nigeria. I do know that there are very good ones among you but i am also of the opinion that if an audit of doctors in Nigeria especially those in government health institution least to say private hospitals is carried out many of you will be weeded out of those institutions. you certainly need a "grammatical surgery" to say that the word FAULTY PROGNOSIS IS A WRONG ENGLISH LEAST TO SAY THAT IT HAS NO MEDICAL CORRELATION. I am an allied health worker.
HealthRe: Doctors’ Strike Cripples Hospitals Nationwide by Elythron16zero4:
phantomm: and you are further making a fool of yourself...no offence. thats why he was laughing at you because you are throwing words around all in the bid to give an opinion. please what is "faulty prognosis" ? educate us since we are quacks.... grin grin grin grin
i am very sure you know but you claim you don't. Prognosis means: The forecast of the probable outcome or course of a disease; the patient's chance of 'recovery. Now when you guys predict what a patients disease condition may lead to and you give prescriptions to stop or cure it/ for what you consider is the cause of an ailment and it doesn't match the cure to that sickness, what do you call that? a guess work? Look my aunty went to UK with her medical report and the docttors there said she was wrongly diagnosed. These are some of the flaws of you guys.mind you diagnosis is not d same with prognosis but one is a link to d other. i do know there are a thousand and one reason why certain drugs may not produce results which may necessitate giving another but that in itself amounts to a guess work because the exact cause is not known and an exact cure/treatment is no given.

infolekan: This up here is a very childish post from a seemingly matured adult.
One of the well documented fallacy of assuming that every one with an access to a computer is matured intellectually at least to operate one.
the comments of a nipper has no reply but to be silent would mean that he knows what he is saying whereas he doesn't know. I can see how intellectually stupid your namby-pamby is that you resort to frenzy. I thought matured adults are very reasonable to see that it takes a colossal effort to earn a degree from the university and very exacerbating to see another rubbishing that effort on unfounded ad hominem that one discipline is superior than another as you people(Dr's) always feel.why didn't pick up a second degree in yoruba,igbo,hausa or french and see how easy it is. If you guys think you are better than others why are you people taking courses from other departments in your formative years? one of you was quick to say doctors can do every other persons job forgetting that the ability to do that was premised on the knowledge he/she acquired from the ancillary medical fields/departments in the school. If you were not taught your paucity of knowledge in those areas will be worse than a novice. It's painful when people claim they are better than others or had more hard times than others yet some medical doctors actually failed some courses in those department they consider inferior today when they were in school. If they were that easy why did they fail? so my friend mind your language.

One day in the antenatal clinic, I prescribed amoxycillin 500mg 3 times a day to a pregnant woman in early third trimester with urinary tract infection. The pharmacist on duty refused to dispense the medication claiming that the dose was too much for a pregnant woman. He came to the clinic before patients shouting that I want to kill the baby with my prescription. He was very bitter. I decided to engage him in academic discussion to know his level of knowledge. I asked him dose of amoxycillin in an adult patient ,the maximum daily dose of amoxycillin and the FDA class of the drug. He was unable to answer those questions . patients started laughing at him. A patient made a side comment that he is fool by thinking that he can engage a doctor in an academic discussion. He was embarrassed and left with bitterness. At the end, the drug was dispensed and patient came back to thank me. Lesson: most allied health workers are not knowledgeable enough to advice a doctor.
Quite laughable but what do you have to say when some doctors give wrong medication to patients from their faulty prognosis ; an error eh? just that single incidence you gave God knows how true does not rubbish all the pharmacist,with your ambiguous fallacy of "MOST PHARMACIST IN TEACHING HOSPITAL ARE NOT KNOWLEDGEABLE IN THEIR FIELD" I have seen doctors committing real blunders in the hospitals. methinks the idea of not being knowledgeable in a field also cut across doctors too.
