Artificial Organs (New Techniques in Surgery Series)
This book deals with organ failure and the way it can be managed artificially without requiring a transplant. It covers the support of multiorgan failure, the blood substitutes, the management of short bowel syndrome, artificial sphincters, substitution of the liver in case of liver failure, pancreatic substitution in case of diabetes, the dialysis machine in kidney failure, circulatory support in heart failure, the bionic ear in deafness, skin substitutes in cases of burns, stem cells in organ

Let me caution you that, of course, no one knows what will happen next week, much less in 2035. If we add the uncertainty of estimating four centuries worth of progress, clearly we are in the land of make-believe. But make-believe can be fun (and instructive too)! Let’s take a look.
If longevity were to improve by half a percent a year for 400 years, someone with a life expectancy now of 75 years could live to be over 250! While some scientists cite 180 years as the outside limit on the potential life span, who knows what might be learned in the future? Perhaps people will grow their own new stem cells for cloned body parts that will be replaced every 50 to 75 years.
Let’s assume a low-ball case. Life expectancy for 60-year-olds grew by about 10 percent in the United States during the time from 1900 to 2000. If that trend were to continue for another four centuries, 60-year-olds would have average life expectancies of 120 years of age! Sixty would become the new forty.
Many people will see the possibility of being aged and infirm for the bulk of one’s much longer life. But that’s probably not what will happen. Huge advances are being made in replacing the parts of our bodies that wear out the fastest, like knees, hips, and spinal discs.
Organ replacements are becoming increasingly common. We also know a lot more about rehabilitation after an injury or disease. Increasingly, those who replace body parts will find themselves functioning better than before rather than less well. With weight and exercise training, some 90-year-olds now report being more agile and active than when they were 50.
As for marriage, perhaps people who realize that a life commitment to a spouse could be for more than 100 years will make the effort to learn better how to build and nurture their relationships. Appreciating that those years when children will dominate a marriage will be relatively few over the length of the marriage may also improve both spouses’ interest in having a great relationship with one another.
In addition, average family sizes keep getting smaller. Perhaps tomorrow’s norm will be to have one child rather than two. That would certainly provide much more room for spouses to have primary relationships with one another.
People who have many marriages following divorces often try to disguise that fact. Imagine what it would be like to have had fifteen failed marriages over a much longer life. Perhaps the unattractiveness of going through so many unpleasant endings to relationships will encourage more interest in better marriages.
Families are an area where that 120 year life span will make the most difference. If marriage and child-bearing occur at young ages, someone who has 30 descendants at 80 could have 62 descendants at age 100 . . . and 126 at 120! Even those who marry and give birth at more
Use Your Own Stem Cells to Grow Your Own Transplant Organs
Boomers!! Would you be shock to know the Coronary Heart Disease and Stroke kills more Americans every year that all cancers combined. Atherosclerosi is the single underlying cause for both of these conditions. Each year one quarter of all deaths in America are linked atherosclerosis. This is the progressive buildup of fatty deposists on the walls of the arteries. Boomers as we age, plaque can build up and restrict blood flow. Over time this disease can eventually clog your arteries, making them stiff and inflexible. Many of you know that clogged arteries can cut off the flow of blood to the brain and heart leading to a heart attack or stroke. So tell me something that I Don’t know!
What if I were to tell you that there are three possible things that you can to stop this from happening to you?
- First thing you can do about Atherosclerosis is to educate yourself. Ask your doctor about the risk factors that contribute to the silent disease.
- Second thing you can do make healthy choices in eating a healthy diet, getting regular exercise and lowering your stress level.
- Third thing you can do order a new section of arterie to replace the portion that is causing the problem. And tell them to take the initial stem cells from your body so that there will be no legal issues or body rejection.
Would you believe that in the near future that we will be able to order and grow our own replacement parts. Regenerative medicine is now a part of your not to distant future. Star Wars tech is soon to come to a hospital or research center near you. Soon we will be able to replace everything from diseased heart muscle to worn out cartilage and failing kidney cells.
It is a possible chance that many Baby Boomers know of an individual that are waiting for human organs. About 98,000 people are on a waiting list for transplants almost ever day. And everyday Baby Boomers are adding to this list. Many of them will die before they get just what is needed. Now a new generation of researchers are changing that requirement one cell at a time.
Wake Forest Institute for Regenerative Medicien, and Tengion Company represents the breakthrough in Regenerative Medicine. The technology harness the body’s ability to regenerate tissues and organs, and has the potential to allow adults and children with organ failure to have functioning organs created from their own tissues. This potentially enable individual to have an unlimited source for replacement body parts, which can lead to healthier lives. For the tens of thousands of patients who need organ transplants, this technology brings hope.
Picture this, in the 21st Century, Stem Cell Transplants and growing you own replacement parts will becoming as common as plastic surgery
