Detección de riesgo de desarrollar problemas de salud por obesidad - Medical Animation
MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT: Detección de riesgo de desarrollar problemas de salud por obesidad. Existen dos maneras comunes de medir el riesgo de desarrollar problemas de salud por obesidad. El índice de masa corporal también conocido como IMC y la medida de la cintura. El IMC calcula su grasa corporal comparando su estatura con su peso. Puede ingresar sus medidas en una calculadora de IMC o bien, su proveedor de atención médica le puede ayudar a calcular su IMC. Una vez que conoce su IMC usted o su proveedor de atención médica puede ubicarlo en un gráfico para ver si tiene bajo peso, peso saludable, sobrepeso u obesidad. El IMC para niños y adolescentes se denomina IMC por edad. El IMC por edad se calcula de la misma manera que el IMC adulto. Sin embargo, los resultados del niño se comparan con gráficos de crecimiento. Los adultos pueden evaluar la grasa del vientre midiendo su cintura con una cinta métrica. Los hombres con una medida de cintura de más de 40 pulgadas y las mujeres no embarazadas con una medida de cintura de más de 35 pulgadas pueden tener un mayor riesgo de desarrollar problemas de salud por obesidad. Si tiene preguntas sobre su riesgo de desarrollar problemas de salud por obesidad, hable con su proveedor de atención médica.

What attorneys say about MLA and The Doe Report:
"Medical illustrations are essential during trial for any medical malpractice case. The people at MLA have the uncanny ability of creating medical illustrations that simplify the most complex of medical concepts and human anatomy to a lay audience. The exhibits of MLA allow experts to easily describe complex concepts and human anatomy in a manner that could not be done otherwise.

In addition, their custom illustrations show in great detail the extent of injuries suffered and the devastating effects they have had on the client's anatomy. These custom illustration can show, side by side, the body before and after a catastrophic injury. The effect of this juxtaposition is unmatched by any testimony that can be adduced at the time of trial.

Even jurors after trial have commented on the ease with which they grasp medical concepts and anatomy once the MLA exhibits were introduced and used by my experts. Even judges who have "seen it all" are thoroughly impressed by the detail and sophistication of the illustrations.

I would not want to try a case without them."

"Thank you very much for the great work on the medical exhibits. Our trial resulted in a $16 million verdict for a 9 year old boy with catastrophic injuries, and the medical illustrations definitely played key role in the trial."

"[Your staff] was extremely efficient, cooperative and gracious and [their] efforts produced a demonstrative exhibit that we used effectively throughout our trial. The jury verdict of $3,165,000.00 was, in no small measure, due to the impact of the demonstrative evidence. You may be sure that we will call again."
