This document summarizes cerebral venous and sinus thrombosis. It discusses the pathogenesis, which can involve thrombosis in cerebral veins leading to venous hypertension and hypoxia. Risk factors include trauma, hypercoagulable states, infections, oral contraceptive use, and idiopathic causes. Clinical findings often include headache, seizures, neurological deficits, and features depending on the site of thrombosis. Diagnosis involves CT, MRI, MRA and MRV to detect thrombus. Treatment involves anticoagulants like heparin and warfarin, thrombolytics through interventional radiology, and occasionally surgery for complications. Outcomes depend on factors like coma, site of thrombosis, and degree of intracranial pressure.

Recomendaçþes da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS â Objetivos do Desenvolvimento SustentĂĄvel e a EstratĂŠgia Global para a SaĂşde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pĂłs-natais devem expandir-se para alĂŠm da cobertura e da simples sobrevivĂŞncia, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pĂłs-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados Ă s mulheres e aos recĂŠm-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saĂşde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma âexperiĂŞncia pĂłs-natal positivaâ ĂŠ um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dĂŁo Ă luz e para os seus recĂŠm-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saĂşde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiĂŞncia pĂłs-natal positiva ĂŠ definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recĂŠm-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famĂlias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saĂşde motivados; e onde um sistema de saĂşde flexĂvel e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebĂŞs e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendaçþes novas e jĂĄ bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pĂłs-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pĂłs-parto em unidades de saĂşde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponĂveis.
Ă fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendaçþes para cuidados durante o perĂodo puerperal, com ĂŞnfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recĂŠm-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção Ă qualidade dos cuidados; isto ĂŠ, a entrega e a experiĂŞncia do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendaçþes da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pĂłs-natais da mĂŁe e do recĂŠm-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestĂŁo de complicaçþes pĂłs-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências Ê contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendaçþes no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Â
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.
