Shadowing Practice: Aneurysm Clipping Surgery - Learn English Speaking with Video
Creando lección...
1
We consider the surgical repair of aneurysms one of the most definitive forms of treatment,
2
meaning it's very unlikely that the aneurysm would recur or regrow.
3
With traditional surgery or microsurgery,
4
we make an incision in your scalp and go inside the skull to identify the aneurysm and essentially clamp it off.
5
The surgical treatment is done in the hospital under general anesthesia,
6
which means you're completely asleep during the entire procedure.
7
An incision will be made on your head and there may be a small visible scar.
8
Then an opening or a window is made in the skull.
9
The aneurysm is identified usually underneath the brain or between the lobes of the brain.
10
And then using a powerful surgical microscope with a bright light on it,
11
we identify the aneurysm and place a small metal spring clip on it to pinch it off.
12
We confirm that the aneurysm is repaired during surgery by visual inspection under the microscope or with x-rays.
13
after we're completely satisfied with the repair,
14
we'll then proceed with closure.
15
Most patients are fully awake after the procedure
16
and usually able to be up in the bed
17
or up to a chair that evening and able to have a light supper like broth or soup.
18
The next morning, we'll ask you to get out of bed
19
and at least walk to the bathroom or a short distance in the hallway,
20
and most patients then we go home on the third day.
21
After surgery most patients return within one to two weeks to have sutures
22
or staples removed then one final check at about the six weeks or eight week period of time.
23
Just like any other surgical procedure there are some risks associated with this.
24
Generally speaking the risk of somewhere in the neighborhood about five to ten percent of something substantially happening
25
that might affect your quality of life in the short term or the long term.
26
These things really revolve around stroke or some type of neurologic deficit.
27
The likely things will be discussed specifically with you depending upon the location of the aneurysm.
28
But keep in mind things like vision loss or paralysis
29
or weakness or sensory disturbance or inability to walk are all possible things that could happen.
30
Approximately two to three percent of all surgical wounds get infected.
31
That could require re-operation or antibiotics to clear this up after the surgery.
32
Although this sounds like an awful lot to go through,
33
the good news is that once you make the journey through this hospitalization and treatment course that the aneurysm will be repaired.
34
There will be a low risk or no risk of having the aneurysm hemorrhage
35
and you can move forward with your life knowing that the aneurysm has been definitively treated.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
