5-0 out of 5 stars Strong book of moving poems
John (Jack) Vanek is an M.D. with heart as shown in this fine book of poems, many of which have won awards, and many will win your heart.

5-0 out of 5 stars Heart murmurs...how apropos
A great collection of poems from a man who just happens to be a physician.The title of the poetry book "Heart Murmurs" can be taken multiple ways, not the least of which is the divisions of the sections into Life, Lament, Love, and Longing.This poet's vision is human; he deals with disease, death, and family--all with heart! Yet, there are some humorous poems among some of the more solemn, thoughtful ones. A highly recommended read for anyone who is searching for some truth about life.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Doctor Is In (and so is his poetry)
What a terrific collection of poems!Yes, they are heartfelt.Like love, lament, longing, and life, his four thematic sections of the book, Jack Vanek's poems reflect a range of experiences we can all identify with at one time or another.From subtle humor to romantic stirrings to mournful losses, he weaves a complete tapestry of emotion in this compilation.Highly recommended for not only lovers of poetry but all lovers of life.

4-0 out of 5 stars Poems from the heart
This first big collection by doctor John Vanek shows his deeper side as a physician with heart. He conveys a sense of caring we would all want in our doctors and our poets.

5-0 out of 5 stars My thoughts on Heart Murmurs
It is evident that the author is a physician. It is unique to be able to examine what is in the doctor's heart by reading several of the poems in this book! It is also evident that the physician is a family man with parents, a wife and a son and a daughter. The themes are very poignant.

The imagery is so natural and engaging. It stands out to me as one of the strengths of the book. I really enjoyed the wry wit and the surprise endings of several of the poems. The use of play on words is fun in several other of the poems,too.

All in all, I enjoyed the poems of this author very much! Is there more? ... Read more

Product Description
BORDIGHERA POETRY PRIZE • 11 sponsored by THE SOnIA RAIZISS-GIOP CHARITABlE FOunDATIOn The poems of Heart Murmur are richly talky and utterly authentic, one moment wry and self-deprecating and the next astonishingly open-hearted.����I honor this book for its celebration of our foolish hopes, our crazed and enlivening appetites. - Nancy Eimers Heart Murmer is an electric storm of language running a gauntlet of feeling from grief to gallows humor that left me astonished. Steffen burns the solipsistic personal at the stake. - Roger Weingarten Steffen scrupulously avoids flamboyance, the sort of surface dazzle we find in poems that, like the stereotypical Chinese meal, are immediately appealing but leave us hungry instants later. His plain style approach allows his insights, as it were, to sneak up on us . . . until we discover ourselves (how did it happen?) in a world so full of pathos that we catch our breaths. - Sydney Lea ...

5-0 out of 5 stars A fantastic CD-ROM textbook combo for heart sounds
Barbara Erikson's Heart Sounds and Murmurs, third edition, is an outstanding reference that defies the concepts needed by practitioners and students who are learning or reviewing cardiac auscultation. The audio-program - now in compact disc format - and accompanying booklet explain how to identify and interpret normal and common abnormal heart sounds. Validation of self-learning is made possible by listening to and identifying the "unknown" heart sounds at the end of each chapter.
Features:
Presents content written by a well respected author to ensure that information is current and clinically accurate.
Provides learning objectives at the beginning of each chapter to help students, reviewers, and teachers identify key concepts.
Includes and index, a detailed table of contents, a glossary, and a transcript of the audio program to facilitate ease of use and to aid learning.
Features figures and tables throughout the text that permit learners to visualize concepts and sounds.
New Features:
Includes varied heart sounds caused by mechanical valve replacement (prosthetic) devices that are currently available and in use in several countries.
Includes pacemaker and extracardiac sounds, including plural and cardiac friction rubs.
provides audio in compact disc format.

Product Description
Heart Sounds and Murmurs Across the Lifespan defines the concepts needed to learn or review cardiac auscultation. The combination of audio (available on either CD or audiocassette) and text explains how to identify and interpret normal and common abnormal heart sounds. Some heart sounds are reproduced on a heart sound simulator, allowing for a clear, crisp grasp of specific, individual sounds. Others are recorded from real patients to distinguish between similar heart and lung sounds, and to help the listener select the heart sounds from the auditory milieu. Covers the distinct heart sounds (S1 through S4) first, then graduates the listener to more complex sounds and murmurs. Builds upon the individual heart sounds by including end-of-chapter reinforcement in more than 170 self-learning, "unknown" heart sounds exercises and questions with answers. Also groups extraneous sounds around which normal heart sounds they are likely to be heard, i.e., "sounds around S1". This approach allows practitioners to build confidence in their ability to discern and identify sounds by being able to place them within the cardiac cycle. ... Read more

The book is good. But be aware the audio is a horrible cassette. I don't even own a cassette player. Thus, the purpose of listening to the sounds is lost. DON'T BUY THIS!

Product Description
Are you a God-Buff? Or does the topic of religion give you the “HeBGB’s?” Either way, you’ll find inspiration in Heart Murmurs by Joan Butman.

A series of essays that began as testimonies given by Joan at her Bible Study group, Heart Murmurs celebrates everyday spirituality by exploring topics such as forgiveness, worry, plastic surgery, and putting up the Christmas lights. Avoiding the “in your face” approach to Christianity, Joan uses humor and a hefty dose of humility in her reflections on Scripture:

“…I’d like to sign up for liposuction of the heart to suck out all of the pride, anger, resentment, jealousies, and grievances I keep harbored there…then follow it up with a Botox injection to infuse me with the fruits of the spirit: ‘love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control’ (Galations 5:22-23). Now that’s my idea of reconstructive surgery.”

Whether you’re a God-Buff, a Bible Babe, or anyone whose heart could use a lift, Heart Murmurs will bring a smile to your face and warmth to your soul. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Hearts are more than paper cutouts....
Nadia's father died of a heart attack when she was five. Her mother told Nadia that she had the same condition, and kept Nadia sequestered all of her life. Now in sixth grade, Nadia has no friends, no activities, and the bleak outlook of being further isolated by being home schooled. Her slightest cough has her mother putting to bed. Sometimes in school, Nadia gives up as well and puts her head on her desk--after all, no one expects anything from the sick girl. She tries out for the school play, does a brilliant audition and is devastated when she doesn't get the part. She finds out later that her mother told the teacher not to allow Nadia to participate. Nadia is old enough now to raise questions, and, with typical coming-of-age surging of independence,to rebel against her parent. She finds out, by virtue of being in a position to read her medical chart at the doctor's office, that she is perfectly fine, a slight heart murmur notwithstanding. This encourages Nadia to take her life back to herself. Some reviewers have felt the narrator's voiceto be unsympathetically whiny, but it is perfectly well-drawn for a child who was treated as sickly her whole life. Who wouldn't be whiny? This is a well-done chyrsalis-to-butterfly story--the larval stage being neither understood nor revered by most onlookers.

5-0 out of 5 stars Courtesy of Teens Read Too
Nadia really does want to play with the other kids. She is tired of playing with paper dolls. But her overprotective mother will not allow her to do anything that will put her fragile heart at risk; i.e. anything that could help her make real friends--running, jumping, rolling around on the forbidden sawdust pile. Besides, the paper dolls have never laughed at her. They have never pointed at her or called her "the sick girl." Still, as she plays with her dolls, despite her mother's constant warnings to the contrary, it occurs to Nadia that she does not wish to allow fear to dominate her life: "Paper dolls. Paper books. Paper cards. Paper life" (p. 85).

So, Nadia devises a plan. She will become an actress. She will secure the lead in the sixth-grade play, and then she will be someone everyone will want to know. She won't tell her mother, of course, and by the time Mrs. Riley knows that the little white lies she has told to get the role are, well, not the complete story, no one will be angry with her because she will have shown them all that she does indeed have value beyond being a source of constant worry for her mother and a target for teasing for the kids at school.

Arrington does an excellent job of exploring the problems that arise when a parent becomes overprotective of a child with a medical condition. Additionally, the unexpected twist she includes is a welcome breath of fresh air in this reviewer's opinion. It is entirely credible, but keeps the storyline from becoming predictable. Nadia's quest to be more than just "the sick girl" becomes a journey for both her and her mother, and it is one that the reader will be glad she has taken, as well.

4-0 out of 5 stars Excellent program -Needs to be updated for current OSs
This is an excellent tool for personal learning and for teaching others heart sounds in a class setting. Along with the actual sounds (all types of murmurs, snaps, clicks, rubs, etc., etc.,) it makes excellent use of visual aides such as echocardiograms, animations, graphs, phonocardiograms, etc., etc. It also includes fairly clear textual explanations (some times the full understanding of a particular sound has to be pieced together from texts located under several examples rather than giving a complete account with each example) of the mechanics and physiology/pathophysiology of the sounds so that the learner gains a good understanding of what is going on with what they are hearing. I have used it often in the past for teaching medical students and practicing physicians in other countries (outside the the US) with very good results.
The big negative concerning this program has been mentioned by other reviewers. It is badly out of date for use with current computer operating systems. It was made in 1997 and I don't believe it has been upgraded for new systems since then. I have to look for older computers to get it to work. When it does work it is great.
Hey, Drs. Criley and Criley and Mr. Zalace and Blaufuss Medical Media - how about updating it for a new generation of medical learners??! If that is done it is well worth the price.

Product Description
Mitral Valve Prolapse is a heart murmur found commonly in the general public and can cause heart palpitations, orthostatic hypotension (dizziness upon standing), other symptoms of an imbalanced nervous system and anxiety/panic symptoms. Medical Research studies have found it to be even more common in thyroid disease patients, especially those with autoimmune type thyroid disorders. It is also believed to be about 5 times more common in females than in males.Many people with MVP do not experience symptoms while those who do are termed as having "MVP-Syndrome". The condition can also cause an imbalance in the "involuntary nervous system" (dysautonomia) and has been associated with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in some patients who have it.This in-print book, which is also available as an e-book title on Amazon, can help to provide the reader with a general education regarding the symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of this very common heart murmur. ...

My writing is an emotional outlet for me, therfore my best poems are written when I feel the need to express myself in a creative way. Sometimes a phrase or subject comes to mind and the poem pours out of my thoughts as fast as I can write it down. Therefore the poetry in this book is an eclectic collection written about such diverse subjects as love, death, grief, divorce, faith, humor, and a variety of other subjects confronting us on a daily basis. Due to the array of subjects there is at least one poem in this book that anyone will find enjoyable or meaningful in their life.
