Hippocrates (460–377 bc) called the Father of Medicine:
*Recorded signs and symptoms of many diseases.
*Created a high standard of ethics, the Oath of Hippocrates, used by physicians today.
-The observation and knowing the reasons why someone may have a disease is vitally important. You have to be able to observe the body to know why someone may have disease need to know what treatment the individual needs. The start of this has helped so many. ]]> 2017-06-09 18:19:39 UTC https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175910761 753 Bc–410 Ad Ancient Romans destineezickmund https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175913101 First to organize medical care by providing care for injured soldiers. Early hospitals developed when physicians cared for ill people in rooms in their homes.
>Began public health and sanitation systems:
*Created aqueducts to carry clean water to the cities
*Built sewers to carry waste materials away from the cities
*Used filtering systems in public baths to prevent disease
*Drained marshes to reduce the incidence of malaria
-The Romans paid special attention to the health of their soldiers due to thought that, without them, their empire would collapse. Today, we have so many hospitals around the world. The start of them is what started the care for those who are in need of medical attention. ]]> 2017-06-09 18:40:28 UTC https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175913101 800–1400 Ad Middle Ages destineezickmund https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175914757 Renewed interest in the medical practice of Greeks and Romans
Physicians began to obtain knowledge at medical universities in the 9th century.
Major diseases were smallpox, diphtheria, tuberculosis, typhoid, the plague, and malaria
Arab physicians used their knowledge of chemistry to advance pharmacology. 
-The start of pharmacology was the start of cures. Physicians studied to find cures for these diseases. Since the cures have been found, diseases like those that were once so common, do not occur like they used to. This has saved so many people from death.

Development of the printing press allowed knowledge to be spread to others. Records and diagrams about the human body, which were written and drawn by scientists and other people who directly observed the human body, helped those who were not able to dissect to learn about anatomy of humans. This helped spread the idea of medicine, dissection, and surgery throughout the Renaissance world. 
-Dissection of the human body and observing the human body has helped today's medical situations in a substantial way. The knowing of what goes on in the human body is so vitally important. ]]> 2017-06-09 19:05:17 UTC https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175915124 16th and 17th Centuries destineezickmund https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175915730 Causes of disease were still not known and many people died from infections and puerperal (childbirth) fever. Ambroise Paré, a French surgeon, known as the Father of Modern Surgery:  *Established the use of ligatures to bind arteries and stop bleeding
*Eliminated the use of boiling oil to cauterize wounds
*Improved treatment of fractures and promoted use of artificial limbs
-The start of using ligatures was the start of learning how to handle injuries and how to treat them. It wasn't the most sanitary way to do it but it got the job done. The start of selling medications has saved so many people's lives and continues to do so today. ]]> 2017-06-09 19:14:56 UTC https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175915730 18th Century destineezickmund https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175995794 During the 18th Century, a lot of things were created and a lot of things were made that have impacted today in such a positive way. The first mercury thermometer was created. Mercury is the only one in liquid state at room temperature. It's used in thermometers because it has high coefficient of expansion. The slightest change in temperature is notable when it's used in a thermometer. ]]> 2017-06-11 14:59:00 UTC https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175995794 19th Century destineezickmund https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175996312 So many medical discoveries were made during the 19th Century. Things that have impacted the medical world in so many ways that have helped people and continue to do so today. First successful blood transfusion was performed on humans. There are so many reasons why you made need a blood transfusion but the start of this has saved so many people's lives. If you have an injury and cannot properly make blood, you can get a blood transfusion. ]]> 2017-06-11 15:09:30 UTC https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175996312 19th Century destineezickmund https://padlet.com/destineezickmund/6vrb1lamzr2a/wish/175996727 The start of mental illness treatment began in the 19th Century.

Many of the body's cells rely on insulin to take glucose from the blood for energy.
