This document defines and describes various types of syncope (transient loss of consciousness) including their causes and treatments. It discusses neurocardiogenic syncope (vasovagal and vasodepressor) which are common faints triggered by situations that cause reduced cerebral blood flow. It also covers postural (orthostatic) hypotension and disorders like hypertrophic cardiomyopathy that can cause cardiac syncope, a more serious condition. Tilt table testing is used to diagnose neurocardiogenic syncope. Management depends on the underlying cause but aims to prevent injury and address premonitory symptoms.
Sinus node dysfunction refers to a number of conditions causing physiologically inappropriate atrial rates. Symptoms may be minimal or include weakness, effort intolerance, palpitations, and syncope. Diagnosis is by electrocardiography. Symptomatic patients require a pacemaker.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

01q Syncope.ppt
1.
2. SYNCOPE
It is defined as transient loss of
consciousness due to reduced
cerebral blood flow.
It is associated with postural
collapse and spontaneous recovery.
It may occur suddenly, without
warning or may be preceded by
symptoms of faintness
3. SYNCOPE
It may be benign when it occurs as a result
of normal cardiovascular reflexes effects
on heart rate and vascular tone.
It may be serious, when due to a life-
threatening arrhythmia.
Syncope may be single event or recurrent.
Recurrent, unexplained syncope,
particularly in an individual with structural
heart disease, is associated with a high
risk of death ( 40% mortality within 2 years
)
4. PRESYNCOPE
It is impending loss of consciousness.
It is preceded by symptoms of faintness,
includes, lightheadedness, “dizziness”
without true vertigo, a feeling of warmth,
nausea, diaphoresis and visual blurring
occasionally proceeding to blindness.
Presyncopal symptoms vary in duration
and may increase in severity until loss of
consciousness occurs or may resolve
prior to loss of consciousness of the
cerebral ischemia is corrected.
5. CAUSES OF SYNCOPE
Disorders of vascular tone or blood volume
-Vaso-vagal (vasodepressor, neurocardiogenic)
-Situational
Micturation
Cough
Defecation
Swallow
-Carotid sinus hypersensitivity
13. NEUROCARDIOGENIC
SYNCOPE
(Vasovagal and vasodepressor)
– VASOVAGAL SYNCOPE
It is associated with both sympathetic
withdrawl (vasodilatation) and
increased parasympathetic activity
(bradycardia)
– VASODEPRESSOR
It is associated with sympathetic
withdrawl.
14. Neurocardiogenic syncope
These forms of syncope are the “common
faints”.
Experienced by normal persons
These accounts for approx. half of all
episodes of syncope.
These are frequently recurrent
Commonly precipitated by a hot or
crowded environment, alcohol, extreme
fatigue, severe pain, hunger and emotional
and stressful situation.
15. Neurocardiogenic syncope
The depth and duration of
unconsciousness vary.
The patients lies motionless, with muscle
relaxed, but a few clonic jerks of the limbs
and face may occur.
Sphincter control is usually maintained.
The pulse may be feeble or absent, BP low
and breathing may be almost
imperceptible.
The duration rarely longer than a few
minutes.
16. Neurocardiogenic syncope
Once the patient is placed in a
horizontal position, the pulse
improves, colour begins to return to
the face, breathing becomes quicker
and deeper and consciousness is
restored.
Although commonly benign, It can be
associated with prolonged asystole
and hypotension, resulting injury.
17.
18. UPRIGHT TILT TABLE
TESTING
It is indicated for recurrent syncope,
a single syncopal episode that
caused injury or event in a high risk
setting ( pilot, commercial heavy
vehicle driver etc )
In susceptible patients, upright tilt at
an angle between 60 and 80 degree
for 30 to 60 min induces a vasovagal
episode.
22. Treatment
At first sign of symptoms, patients
should make every effort to avoid
injury.
Patients who have lost
consciousness should be placed in a
position that maximize cerebral blood
flow, offers protection from trauma
and secures airway.
23. Treatment
Patients should avoid situations or stimuli
that have caused them to lose
consciousness to assume a recumbent
position when premonitory symptoms
occur.
Drug therapy
– Beta antagonist
– SSRI
– Bupriopion
– Disopyramide
24. POSTURAL (ORTHOSTATIC)
HYPOTENTION
This occurs in patients who have a
chronic defect in or variable
instability of vasomotor reflexes.
Systemic arterial BP falls on
assumption of upright posture due to
loss of vasoconstriction reflexes in
resistance and capacitance vessels
of the lower extremities.
25. POSTURAL (ORTHOSTATIC)
HYPOTENTION
Orthostatic Hypotension may be the
cause of syncope in up to 30% of the
elderly; polypharmacy with
antihypertensive or antidepressant
drugs is often a contributor in these
patients
Postural syncope may occur in
otherwise normal persons with
defective postural reflexes.
26. POSTURAL (ORTHOSTATIC)
HYPOTENTION
Orthostatic changes marked by a
decrease in systolic BP by 20 mm
Hg, a decrease in diastolic BP by 10
mm Hg, or an increase in heart rate
by 20 beats per minute (bpm) with
positional changes or systolic BP
less than 90 mm Hg with the
presence of symptoms may indicate
postural hypotension.
27. CAROTID SINUS
HYPERSENSTIVITY
It is precipitated by pressure on the
carotid sinus barorecepters.
This typically occurs in the setting of
shaving a tight collar or turning the
head to one side.
28. SITUATIONAL SYNCOPE
It is caused at least in part by abnormal
autonomic control and may involve
cadioinhibitory response, a vasodepressor
response or both.
GLOSSOPHARYNGEAL
NEURALGIA
It is preceded by pain in oropharynx,
tonsillar fossa, or tongue.
Loss of consciousness is usually
associated with asystole rather than
vasodialtaion.
29. CARDIOVASCULAR
DISORDERS
Cardiac syncope, in contrast to vasovagal
syncope, can be a harbinger of serious
disease.
Arrhythmias are the most common cardiac
cause of syncope, accounting for up to
14% of all cases of cardiogenic syncope.
These includes brady-arryhthmias from
sinus-node dysfunction, atrio-ventricular
disturbances.
Ventricular tachyarrythymias may be due
to structural heart disease (in 85 to 90 % of
cases), the long-QT syndrome, or the
Barguada syndrome.
30. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
It is an atuosomal dominant disorder,
characterized by idiopathic
hypertrophy of the left (and
sometimes right) ventricle, heart
failure due to diastolic dysfunction,
ischemia even the absence of CAD,
and arrhythmias.
Its prevalence is estimated at 0.2 %.
There are several variants.
31.
32.
33. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
The clinical manifestations of the disease
are dyspnea, angina, and a continuum
encompassing lightheadedness,
presyncope, ssyncope and sudden death.
The incidence of sudden death is 1 %.
Symptoms often occur during physical
exertion.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the most
common disease found in cases of
sudden death in young athletes.
34.
35. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Sudden death generally results from
VT or VF.
The gold standard for the diagnosis
is echocardiography.
MRI may help in apical HCM
36. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Management includes
– Avoid strenuous exertion
– Control of symptoms by Beta blockers
or Disopyramide
– Endocarditis prophylaxis for HOCM
– Prevent sudden death by implantable
cardioverter –defibrillator
– Screening of first degree relatives.
