NEPA Vital Signs - Summer Fall 2019 - 23

SUMMER/FALL 2019

TASTE: It's nice to take a break with some
excellent food and dine with your spouse
or a few friends so you can converse in
private. It provides an ideal break from
the hectic pace of the day.
FEELING: Relish the moments of gratification
from your doctor-patient relationships. Take a minute to let
them thank you rather than rushing to the next patient.
The overall effects of your medical practice can be
satisfying. It takes only a minute to be sensitive
to other people's feelings. You'll feel better, too!

The sebaceous glands of our dermis secrete a mixture of
glycerides, fatty acids, wax esters, squalene, and a small
amount of cholesterol. The extracellular matrix of the
epidermis adds glycosaminoglycans and hyaluronic acid.
This liquid imparts a smooth, lubricated feeling to the skin
surface and reduces skin dehydration (ref. 4). There's a real
difference to having a nice look, pleasant fragrance and
smooth feeling of your skin.
Let's take care of ourselves so we can take better care of
everyone else!

The sensation of our skin can be compromised by the perpetual hand washing, hand
sanitizers, and wearing medical gloves. It can feel
embarrassing to have rough, irritated, cracked skin. You can
treat this with moisturizing lotions that contain water, plus
a mixture of occlusives, humectants and emollients.

Occlusive ingredients seal the surface, holding water in the
skin surface. Humectants act like a sponge, drawing water from
the dermis into the epidermis, and can draw some water from
humid air onto the skin surface to a limited extent. Emollients
smooth out the surface of the skin by filling in rough spots,
without affecting the water content (ref. 3).

CHARLES SUTTON is a local physician who practices
interventional radiology. He started as a biomedical engineer, became
interested in medicine: vascular devices, researched and developed
IVC filters and vascular stents. Dr. Sutton trained in surgery, then
procedures without surgery. He moved to the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
area 20 years, introducing several new procedures that have been
proven to improve patient care.
