[Medico-legal certificates in dentistry-oral medicine].

Certificates are acts meant to note facts of medical order. They constitute the proof of the bodily damage in a file of repair request. Only a doctor in medicine can write such a paper. The disciplinary, penal and civilian responsibility is committed every time that the doctor agrees to write a medical certificate. The medical secret must be respected when writing such a medical certificate. The document must be handed the patient. The dentist can establish certificates of different nature when he is asked by his patients, since the noted facts are part of his expertise. The certificate must be written after exam of the patient. The description of the lesions must be precise and complete. Under pain of nothing, the medical certificate must include: the identity of the doctor, the patient's one, the date of writing and the signature of the editor. The ITT show on the medical certificate is of great importance because it determines jurisdictions related to voluntary and involuntary violence.

Communication of medication orders by telephone--"writing it right".

Communication is commonly cited as a contributing factor to adverse events causing patient harm (Baker et al., 2004). There are numerous ways and reasons that communication failures can occur, such as poor handwriting, transcription errors, lack of verification, lack of integration of information, and ineffective team functioning. Errors that can occur in critical care with the verbal communication and receipt of a telephone order will be highlighted. These examples, together with proposed strategies for improving telephone order safety, are intended to promote awareness and potential practice changes in the critical care environment.

Portable computing in psychiatry.

Personal digital assistants (PDAs) or handheld computers have become more popular in the practice of medicine. These devices have implications for psychiatric practice, and this paper reviews various published articles describing their use. The literature demonstrates their use in document editing, patient tracking, accessing medical information and drug reference guides, prescription writing, and medical education. Security on these devices is covered, and the value and increasing implementation of PDAs in psychiatry is discussed.

[Paracelsianism, astrology and medical ethics in the polemical writings of Tommaso Bovio (1521-1609)].

Tommaso Bovio was a representative of North Italian non-academic medicine in the early modern period. His "dialogues", published in the second half of the 16th century, were written in the Italian vernacular and enjoyed a certain popularity also in Germany. Although Bovio used to exaggerate for rhetorical effect, his portrayal of patients, illness and treatments provides interesting insights into everyday urban life in his time. Sympathising with Paracelsus, Bovio propagated an image of empirics as humanitarians and fought for the recognition of his own practical knowledge and skills. Bovio was a most original figure in the medicine of the period of counter reformation. His writings exemplify the lively debate between the learned medical tradition and unorthodox reform.
