Background: The caduceus is the popular symbol of medicine. However, premier health organizations and regulatory bodies such as the World Health Organization and the Medical Council of India use a different symbol- the rod of Asclepius in their logo. There is an increasing awareness and recognition that the caduceus is a false symbol and has no historical substantiation as an emblem of medicine. Many academic and health institutions in the western hemisphere have changed their logo as a consequence. There are other symbols of medicine which are similarly misunderstood. Objectives: The purpose of the study is to assess the knowledge of common medical symbols among doctors and medical students. Materials and Methods: Three hundred doctors and medical students were assessed on their knowledge about the Rx symbol, the Red Cross emblem and the true representative emblem of medicine. Logos and emblems of elite medical colleges and medical associations were also studied. Results: Only 6% of doctors were aware that the Rod of Asclepius is the true symbol of healing. Knowledge of the significance of the Rx symbol and the origin of the Red Cross emblem was 55% and 39 %. Conclusion: There is very little awareness about the rod of Asclepius and most institutions have adopted a logo based on the caduceus. Awareness of the true origins and the symbolism of the emblems is lacking in the medical fraternity. PMID:25302242 Claimants, Roger and Patricia Liming, brought this action to recover medical expenses, loss of work, damages to a vehicle and loss of consortium, all of which resulted when claimant Patricia Liming was injured in a vehicular accident on November 24, 1979.

As a registered nurse, I am appalled that the nurse providing the care for their baby did not know what the medication was being given for. As a nurse, it is our job to know what the diagnosis or suspected diagnosis of the patient is. When administering any medication, you should know what the medication is, why it's being given, and any and all possible side effects or risks/concerns re: the administration of the medication. I too would question the kind of care the child was receiving from that nurse.

In re Denison, 38 F.2d 662, 664. Another court has made this definition:
The injury was an unforeseeable consequence of the initial condition/injury. A public entity is obligated to maintain its sidewalks in a reasonably safe condition. The defect or condition complained of must be one that poses an unreasonable risk of harm to a reasonably careful pedestrian. McDade v. Town of Oak Grove, 545 So.2d 1276, 1278 (. 2nd Cir.1989). A pedestrian has a duty to see that which should have been seen. Thornton v. Board of Supervisors of Louisiana State Univ., 29,898 (. 2nd Cir.10/29/97), 702 So.2d 72, 75. The fact that an accident occurred as a result of a defect does not elevate the condition of the thing to that of an unreasonably dangerous defect. See Shipp v. City of Alexandria, 395 So.2d 727, 729 (La.1981). The past accident history of the defect in question is a factor to be taken into consideration in determining the relative risk of injury. Reed, 708 So.2d at 365; Boyle, 685 So.2d at 1083. The degree to which a danger may be observed by a potential victim is another factor considered in the determination of whether a condition is unreasonably dangerous. Wallace v. Slidell Memorial Hosp., 509 So.2d 69, 72 (. 1st Cir.1987). Lighting conditions at the time of the accident may be taken into consideration. See Wallace, 509 So.2d at 72. The time of day of the accident is clearly relevant in determining whether a condition posed an unreasonable risk of injury. Fortune v. City of New Orleans, 623 So.2d 701, 703 (. 4th Cir.), writ denied, 629 So.2d 1126 (La.1993). When a dangerous condition is patently obvious and easily avoidable, it can hardly be considered to present a condition creating an unreasonable risk of harm. Phipps v. Amtrak, 94-1876 (. 1st Cir.11/20/95), 666 So.2d 341, 343, writ denied, 95-3012 (La.2/28/96), 668 So.2d 368; Thornton, 702 So.2d at 74; Wilson v.

Serious damage to the vision in one eye compensation settlements Legal malpractice cases are difficult to assess. We at Klose & Associates thoroughly investigate the factual scenario of each Statute of Limitation or Missed Legal Deadline case we consider. In each case, it is unlikely that the attorney knew every nuance of your case when the attorney took it, but is responsible for, and legally obliged to comply with each and every fact and nuance of the statute. If we are retained to bring a lawsuit against a lawyer for missing a Statute of Limitations or a Legal Deadline, each fact, law, and case that informs our decision as to the legal malpractice must be patiently and meticulously investigated. If they made a mistake, we aggressively prosecute the malpractice. 1795992 Robert Weathers v Commonwealth of Virginia 06/20/2000 Indiana Federation of Dentists, 101 F.T.C. at 174-75, 125 n. 337. 17 The Commission's finding is tempered by evidence in the record that "smaller insurers had generally gone along with the Indiana dentists' demands" and that group dental health care insurers did, in fact, visit dental offices to examine and review all diagnostic and clinical aids, including x-rays. Moreover, as long as the IFD member dentists continued to treat patients covered by group dental health care plans and invite their insurers to the dental office to review and examine all diagnostic and clinical aids, the IFD member dentists continued to compete among themselves and with non-IFD dentists in their policy of dealing with group dental health insurers. Any expenses resulting from the adherence to the IFD policy of quality and proper dental care affected the insurers in their review of dental claims, not the dentists in their competition for patients covered by group dental health care plans or in their competition to deal with the patients' insurers. The record clearly reveals that the IFD member dentists continued to compete in their policy of dealing with group dental health insurers; the dentists simply required that the insurers abide by established, accepted, and approved standards of quality and proper dental care, examining and reviewing all diagnostic aids before formulating a proper course of dental treatment. Following is a list of those applying for the judgeship:
