How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Disclosures
▪ This ongoing pediatric orthopedic imaging interpretation series is proudly
sponsored by the Emergency Medicine Residency Program at Carolinas
Medical Center
▪ The goal is to promote widespread imaging interpretation mastery.
▪ There is no personal health information [PHI] within, and ages have been
changed to protect patient confidentiality.
4. The Physics of X-Rays
• How far an X-ray projects depends on the density of tissue that is to be
penetrated
• If there is no tissue, the color of the x-ray will be black
• The greater the density, the lighter the color
5. Reading Systematically
• Identify you are reviewing the correct patients imaging
(name, date of birth, date of imaging)
• Review both AP and lateral views, as this can help you
describe the fracture/deformity in both planes
• X-rays of two adjacent joints must be taken or a joint
injury could potentially be missed
• Identify which bone and what fractured part of the bone is
injured

CASE #3: A 9-year-old male presents to the emergency department
following a bicycle accident. Physical examination reveals an
apparent deformity of the elbow with decreased sensation to the
forearm and hand.
Diagnosis? Supracondylar Fracture Type III
17. Type III Supracondylar Fracture.
Note the complete displacement
with no contact between bone
fragments
18. CASE #4:
A 12-year-old female
presents to the
emergency department
following a motor
vehicle collision. She is
tearful and tachycardic
with heart rate in the
140’s. Physical
examination reveals a
cold and pulseless right
hand with significant
edema and ecchymosis
of the elbow. There is
significant pain on
palpation, and she is
unable to flex or extend
the forearm.
Diagnosis?
19. CASE #4:
A 12-year-old female
presents to the
emergency department
following a motor
vehicle collision.
Physical examination
reveals a cold and
pulseless right hand
with significant edema
and ecchymosis of the
elbow. The patient is
unable to flex or extend
the forearm.
Diagnosis?
Supracondylar Fracture
Type IV
*Typically diagnosed
intra-operatively
Treatment: Emergent open
reduction and external
fixation
Complete dislocation
and periosteal
disruption, making
the elbow highly
unstable*
20. Another example of a Type IV
Supracondylar Fracture. Note
the complete dislocation
22. Another example of a Type IV
Supracondylar Fracture and
how it may appear in the ED
when considered an open
fracture.
An open supracondylar fracture
requires emergent fixation,
given poor perfusion that
accompanies injury.
23. Supracondylar Humeral Fractures
• Most common traumatic fractures seen in children less than 10 years
old, with peak age around 5-7 years old
• Mechanism of injury typically secondary to extension-type injuries due
to a fall onto the outstretched hand while the elbow is extended
• Occurs equally in both males and females
• Incidence:
-Extension type (95-98%)
-Flexion type (< 5%)
24. Classification
System of
Supracondylar
Fractures
• Numerous classification systems lead to difficulty in accurately classifying
supracondylar fractures and thus, developing a single care standard
• The Gartland classification is the most commonly used in the U.S.
• AO Classification and Bahk’s pattern:
-Commonly used in France
-Shortcomings include classifying rotated fractures less operative than
displaced fractures, when in fact, they can be even more difficult to reduce
• Lagrange and Rigault Classification:
-Less reliable based on current data
25. Gartland Classification System
• Based upon the degree of displacement, direction of displacement, and whether
the boney cortex is intact or disrupted.
• Used as a tool to determine if a fracture determines operative intervention
Type I Non-displaced or minimally displaced
Type II Displaced with an intact posterior cortex
Type III Completely displaced:
III a: Complete posterior displacement with no cortical contact
III b: Complete displacement with soft tissue gap
Type IV Diagnosed intra-operatively with displacement, periosteal
disruption, and instability in flexion and extension
29. Clinical Presentation
• Physical exam:
-Ranges from edema and ecchymosis at the site of injury to gross
deformity with limited range of motion of the elbow
• Neuro exam:
-Assess for sensation discrepancy
-Radial arterial injury, radial nerve neurapraxia (inability to extend
wrist, MCP joint, and thumb IP joints), median nerve injury
(absent sensation over dorsum index finger), spread fingers (ulnar nerve),
AIN neuropraxia (unable to perform “A-OK” sign)
• Vascular exam:
-Assess for warm and pink skin with capillary refill < 2 seconds
-Ensure radial pulse present with palpation or doppler pulse
30. Inability to perform “A-OK” Sign
• Important examination finding in the Emergency Department
• The physician will be assessing for an anterior interosseous nerve deficit
• Patient will be unable to flex the DIP joint of the index finger and IP joint of the thumb
on the affected hand
31. Complications of Supracondylar Fracture
• “Floating elbow”
-Evidence of supracondylar fracture + forearm or wrist fracture
-Patient at increased risk for compartment syndrome and will require
urgent operative intervention
• “Brachialis Sign”
-Ecchymosis + palpable bone fragment + antecubital skin dimpling
-Patient at increased risk for arterial injury
• Volkmann Contracture – Rare Occurrence
-Ischemic contracture due to damage to the brachial artery
• Malunion
• Damage to the ulnar, radial, or median nerves
33. Treatment
Non-operative:
-Supracondylar Fractures Type I/II
-Well perfused hand without neurological deficits
-Long arm casting with elbow flexion < 90º
-Cast should remain in place for at least 3-4 weeks
Operative:
-Supracondylar Fractures Type III/IV OR Supracondylar Fracture
Type II with inadequate perfusion, neurological deficits, or significant angulation
-Closed reduction and percutaneous pinning or open reduction and
internal fixation
Type I Type II Type III Type IV
34. The modified Gartland
Classification validates non-
operative treatment for
Supracondylar Type I Fractures
and operative repair of
Supracondylar Type III
Fractures
• Definitive treatment for Supracondylar Type
IIa vs. IIb Fracture difficult to validate,
given one needs to assess if rotational
deformity is present
• Regarding Supracondylar Type II Fractures,
the terminology of the fracture (whether
displacement or rotational deformity is
present), is more clinically useful in
determining treatment plan
35. Operative Intervention
• Time to closed reduction with percutaneous pinning dependent upon patient’s neurovascular
presentation
• Non-urgent:
-Patient appropriate for operating room the next day
-Perfused hand without neurological deficits
-Reduce and splint arm with elbow flexion 30º- 40º
• Urgent:
-Plan for operating room the same day of presentation
-Pulselessness or neurological deficits with improvement following reduction and
splinting of supracondylar fracture
• Emergent:
-Plan for operating room within the next few hours
-Pulseless hand with minimal to no perfusion following reduction of supracondylar
fracture
