How is the gastric stimulator implanted? If your doctor decides you are a good candidate for gastric electrical stimulation, you will be referred to a surgeon. The minimally invasive implanted treatment option takes one to two hours under general anesthesia.

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 2 CONT

The viral load test provides important information that is used in conjunction with the CD4 cell count : to monitor the status of HIV disease, to guide recommendations for therapy, and to predict the future course of HIV.... A viral load test is ordered when a patient is first diagnosed with HIV. The test result functions as a baseline measurement that shows how actively the virus is reproducing and whether treatment is immediately necessary. If and when therapy is started, your doctor should order a viral load test and a CD4 count about two to eight weeks after you start a treatment to evaluate whether therapy is being effective.... If the viral load measurement is high, it indicates that HIV is reproducing and that the disease will likely progress faster than if the viral load is low.  4, record 3, English, - viral%20load%20test

It is generally accepted in England that doctors have a duty to exercise reasonable care with their patients. This duty extends not only to examination, diagnosis and treatment, but also to the provision of appropriate information. In determining whether a medical practitioner has breached his or her duty of care to a patient, the courts of England had generally applied the Bolam principle, by which a doctor would not be found to be negligent if he or she acted in accordance with the practice accepted at the time as proper by a responsible body of medical opinion...  2, record 11, English, - Bolam%20principle

The treatment or care and supervision is based on a community treatment plan which outlines the medications, medical appointments and other aspects of care the doctor believes is necessary to allow the person to live in the community rather than hospital. The community treatment plan is developed by the doctor, the person(or the substitute decision-maker if there is one) and any other people or organizations that will assist the person in the community.  2, record 12, English, - community%20treatment%20plan
