A diabetic man with a history of tibia and fibula fracture treated with interlocking nail fixation 3 months ago presented with redness, swelling and foul-smelling discharge from his left leg. X-rays showed no healing of the fracture site. He was diagnosed with chronic osteomyelitis based on clinical findings and history. Management involved investigating with blood tests and imaging, surgically debriding dead tissue, administering IV antibiotics for 2-3 weeks followed by oral antibiotics for 6-8 weeks, optimizing blood sugar control, and considering implant removal or bone grafting.
OPEN INGUINAL HERNIA REPAIR- OPERATIVE SURGERY
#surgicaleducator #operativesurgery #openinguinalherniarepair #usmle #babysurgeon #surgicaltutor
Dear viewers,
• Greetings from “Surgical Educator”
• Because of the popular demand by viewers of the YouTube channel “Surgical Educator”, I have decided to create and upload videos on common surgeries.
• I have already uploaded videos on open and Laparoscopic Appendicectomy, Thyroidectomy, Modified Radical Mastectomy and open and
Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
• In this video today, I have discussed Open Inguinal Hernia Repair.
• However, these videos are not real surgeries but the theoretical aspect of operative surgery like going through an atlas of operative surgery.
• Along with these videos, I recommend you to watch real operative surgery videos as well and I will give a link for each surgery in the end of the video as end-cards, which I think will be very useful.
• This will give a very good opportunity for the surgical trainees to mentally rehearse various surgical steps in a sequential manner prior to actual surgery. You can watch the video in the following links:

Peripheral nerve damage affecting the upper extremities can vary widely in cause and extent.
Many disorders, ranging from mild carpal tunnel syndrome to severe brachial plexopathy, need to be considered in a patient presenting with pain, sensory loss, or weakness involving the shoulder, arm, or hand.
Injuries to the nerves of the upper limb can result from trauma, compression, lacerations, or certain medical conditions. Nerve injuries may lead to various symptoms, including pain, weakness, numbness, or loss of function in specific areas of the upper limb. Nerve injuries may range from mild to severe, and appropriate medical evaluation and treatment are essential. Physical therapy, splinting, medications, or in some cases, surgical intervention may be recommended based on the type and severity of the nerve injury. Early intervention is crucial for optimal recovery.
4th year medical student's seminar presentation under supervision of orthopedic lecturer. Reference is from Dr. Sameh Doss Textbook of upper and lower limb, and also other multiple websites.

The Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason
What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
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”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
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.

3- Write a short note (bulletedparagraphstyle) onclinical diagnosis and
management of Ulnar claw hand. (up to200 words - 15 marks)
answer:
- ulnar clawhand clinical diagnosis can beelicited by history and examination
o history of trauma to arm, accident, deep laceration especially in medial aspectof elbow
o fracture of supracondylar of humerus,fall with arm out-strectch
o history of elbow dislocation,
o cubitus valgus dueto non-union fractureof lateral epicondyle fracture(tardy ulnar nerve
palsy)
- examination:
o look: clawingdeformity (hyperflexed interphalangeal joint,hyperextension of metacarpal
jointof ringand littlefinger-intrinsic minus hand), normal thumb and first2 finger, any scar
(help to diagnoselevel of injury),muscleatrophy (guttering of dorsal aspect-interossei,
hypothenar atrophy), swelling,redness,wounds, bruise,discharge
ulnar paradox:
ulnar nerve supply the flexor carpi ulnaris and hypothenar muscle (abductor pollicis,
flexor digiti minimi, opponen digitii minimi, ulnar lumbricle, all interossei and ulnar 2
flexor digitorum profundus.
4. NUR FARRA NAJWA
082015100035
In ulnar nerve lesion, the higher the lesion (near elbow) the less severe the clawing
defromity, the lower (near wrist) the lesion the severe the clawing deformity.
In higher lesion the ulnar 2 flexor digitorum profundus is paralyse, there is no
hyperflexion at distal interphalageal joint and, while in the lower lesion, the
interosseoi and ulnar lumbricle paralyse casuing metacarpalphalageal joint to be
hyperextended and interphalageal joint hyperflexed due to unopposed ulnar 2 flexor
digitorum profundus and flexor digitorus superficialis action.
complete claw hand: palsy of ulnar and median nerve
o feel: pain,tenderness, riseof temperature, sensory loss over tip of littlefinger (lowlesion) or
ulnar sideover dorsal surface(high lesion)
o move:
high lesion:
weakness in elbow flexion in radial deviation,
weakness of medial 2 finger flexion over mcp and ip jpint
weakness of hypothenar muscle- little finger pen test
weakness in interossei- card test, egawa test
low lesion
weakness of medial 2 finger flexion over mcp and ip jpint
weakness of hypothenar muscle- little finger pen test
weakness in interossei- card test, egawa test
adductor (adductor pollicis) compartment:
froment sign- loss of thumb adduction and flexion at thumb ip joint
compensated by flexor pollicis longus (causing thumb to go into
hyperflexion when patient is asked to grip and pich a piece of flat object
such as paper)
tinel sign : tapping alongnerve course from distal to proximal (only to
wrist-not high enough), recovery sign showpresence of numbness and
