Hippocrates

Hippocrates (Greek physician)

Hippocrates (460?-377?bc), greatest physician of antiquity, regarded as the father of medicine. Born probably on the island of Kos, Greece, Hippocrates traveled widely before settling on Kos to practice and teach medicine. He died in Larissa, Greece; little else is known about him. His name is associated with the Hippocratic Oath, though he probably is not the author of the document. In fact, of the approximately 70 works ascribed to him in the Hippocratic Collection, Hippocrates may actually have written about six of them. The Hippocratic Collection is probably the remnant of the medical library of the famous Kos school of medicine. His teachings, sense of detachment, and ability to make direct, clinical observations probably influenced the other authors of these works and had much to do with freeing ancient medicine from superstition.

Hippocrates Di (about 460 BC - about 377 BC), a great ancient physician, known as the father of medicine). His birthplace was probably the Greek island of Kos, and he traveled around to practice and teach medicine before settling on Kos. Apart from his death in Larissa, Greece, little is known about him. Although his name is associated with the Hippocratic Declaration, it is highly unlikely that he was its author. In fact, Hippocrates himself probably wrote only about six of the approximately 70 documents attributed to him in the Hippocratic Anthology. The Hippocratic Anthology is most likely the library of the famous Medical University of Coas. His teaching, objective judgment, ability to give guidance, and clinical observations likely influenced the authors of these works and were crucial in moving ancient medicine away from superstition.

Among the more significant works of the Hippocratic Collection is Airs, Waters, and Places (5th century bc), which, instead of ascribing diseases to divine origin, discusses their environmental causes. It proposes that considerations such as a town's weather, drinking water, and site along the paths of favorable winds can help a physician ascertain the general health of citizens. Three other works—Prognostic, Coan Prognosis, and Aphorisms—advanced the then-revolutionary idea that, by observing enough cases , a physician can predict the course of a disease.

Among the more far-reaching works in the Hippocratic anthology are Treatises on Atmosphere, Water, and Habitat (in the 5th century B.C.), These discussions no longer attributed disease to theological causes but instead discussed environmental triggers. The work explains that considerations such as urban climate, drinking water, and locations along the downwind direction can help doctors roughly determine the health status of citizens. The other three works - Premonitions, Prognosis, and Proverbs - were put forward earlier than the later idea that doctors could predict the development of the disease through sufficient observation of the disease.

The idea of ??preventive medicine, first conceived in Regimen and Regimen in Acute Diseases, stresses not only diet but also the patient's general way of living and how it influences his or her health and convalescence. Sacred Disease, a treatise on epilepsy, reveals the rudimentary knowledge of anatomy in ancient Greece. Epilepsy was believed to be caused by insufficient air, which was thought to be carried by the veins to the brain and limbs. In Joints, the use of the so-called Hippocratic bench is described for treating dislocations. Also of interest are Wounds in the Head, Women's Diseases, and Dismembering of the Feotus in the Womb

The perspective of preventive medicine was first developed in health care and treatment of acute diseases. The regimen emphasizes not only diet but also the patient's daily lifestyle and how it affects the patient's health and recovery. Diseases Related to Religion, a treatise on epilepsy that reveals the early anatomical knowledge of ancient Greece. In the writings, epilepsy is thought to be caused by insufficient air supply, and the gas is thought to be brought to the brain and limbs through some textures. In the article on joints it is stated that dislocations can be treated using what is known as the Hippocratic chair. The anthology also looks at head injuries, women's illnesses, and the separation of fetuses from the womb.
