all day long and accomplish very little but if I can change a persons life
via the use of a natural substance not only have I won them over but all
the people they share their joy with. Thus I find selling products is more

The cause of Infantile Spasms is not always known. However, the most common known cause of Infantile Spasms is a lack of oxygen to the baby during delivery. In some cases the brain damage caused by this lack of oxygen could have been prevented if doctors had taken proper steps during delivery to insure the baby was receiving enough oxygen. As a result, many children who have Infantile Spasms are victims of medical malpractice."

The journal's scope was to cover the multiple issues, geographic settings and professional concerns of nurses who cared for the injured around the world. The purpose of IJTN would be different -- to be an international communication tool for nurses.
The first step was to identify what content should be included in the journal. Because trauma patients have a wide range of health care needs, the journal was to be a reflection of those many services. Advice was sought from several United States nursing associations who had formed the Trauma Nursing Coalition (TNC), and the coalition has worked together to publish professional nursing literature." ******************************************************
