講題綱要(Outline):麻醉是運用藥物或其他方法,使病人對於手術失去知覺,減輕病人痛苦的醫療行爲,通常用於手術或急救。麻醉治療方式可根據用藥份量,分爲局部麻醉及全身麻醉。由於醫學的發達,麻醉也隨著廣泛運用於醫學治療。麻醉與疼痛醫學息息相關,在目前的社會慢性及痼疾疼痛日新月異,疼痛會使得人的生活品質變差,鬥志減退或無法正常生活工作,如何克服治療長期慢性痼疾疼痛,需要有精密的儀器輔佐針對發生的部位加以治療,此為疼痛醫學的一大突破。
Anesthesia is the use of medicine or other methods to help prepare a patient for surgery, or to help patients who may find discomfort in medical diagnosis or undergoing treatment; it is the field of medicine involving the loss of consciousness. It is commonly used in surgery or during emergency medical care. These treatment methods can be separated by the amount of drugs used, as in local anesthesia and general anesthesia. With the advancement in medicine, anesthesia has seen an expansion of use in medical care and benefit to human health. Anesthesiology and pain are closely related; in today’s society, chronic pain is progresses rapidly. Pain leads to a decrease in a person’s quality of life, and the fight to control it will affect one’s daily life and work. In order to overcome and treat long-term chronic pain, there is a need for assistance of precise instruments to target specific areas for treatment; this is one of pain medicine’s biggest breakthroughs.

電影「被出賣的台灣」2月底美國上映
【中央社╱中央社記者江今葉洛杉磯專電】
好萊塢第一部以台灣白色恐怖時代為背景的電影「被出賣的台灣」,2月26日將在美國上映。電影製片刁毓能說,希望讓全球知道台灣發生過的故事,也提醒世人人權普世價值。
「被出賣的台灣」(Formosa Betrayed)是美國第一部以70及80年代在海外台灣民主人士奮鬥過程為背景的電影。預計2月26日在美國洛杉磯、紐約、波士頓、舊金山灣區等地首映。
故事主角是一名美國聯邦調查局(FBI)探員,在調查一名台裔美籍教授遭謀殺的案件中,意外發現殺手是來自台灣的黑手黨,而背後的主導者正是高壓統治的台灣當局。
父母來自高雄的刁毓能接受訪問時表示,從小就常聽父母說起江南案與陳文成的故事,也常談到當時國民黨的高壓統治,這是觸發他拍攝這部電影的動機。
刁毓能說,拍攝這部電影就是希望能讓台灣以外的全球其他人,能夠知道台灣曾經發生過的故事,希望讓他們瞭解台灣人是如何為自己的定位、公平與民主而奮鬥,也提醒大家人權是普世價值。
但更重要的,刁毓能說,希望透過這部片子,喚起所有人的共鳴,讓他們知道,不只台灣曾經有過獨裁統治的恐怖時期,許多國家像是巴西、羅馬尼亞、東歐等國也都有這樣類似的故事。
他說,曾經有個朋友對他說,看完這部片子,讓自己想到當初在家鄉時,也曾被情治人員跟監的過往,感同身受。
電影導演克恩(Adam Kane)則說,乍聽這個故事時,完全不相信會有這樣的事發生。過去在學校上課時,雖然也曾觸及台灣內政與政治發展,但對台灣到底發生過什麼事,其實所知有限。
執導這部片子,克恩說,希望能藉由美國人的不同角度,賦予這些故事新的生命,讓不熟悉台灣歷史的美國人也能瞭解台灣的過往,讓這樣的事件不會再發生。
