LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

4. INTRODUCTION
Burns are one of the most common household
injuries, especially among children. The term
“burn” means more than the burning sensation
associated with this injury. Burns are
characterized by severe skin damage that
causes the affected skin cells to die.
5. DEFINITION
A burn is a type of injury to skin, or other tissues,
caused by heat, cold, electricity, chemicals, friction,
or radiation. Most burns are due to heat from hot
liquids (called scalding), solids, or fire.

12. EXTENT OF INJURY
The extent of a burn wound is defined as the percentage
of total body surface damaged and may be determined by
the Rule of Nines. This divides the body into areas of 9%
or multiples of nine.
15. LOCATION OF BURN INJURY
Burn location is an important consideration.
If the burn involves the face, nose, mouth, or neck, there is a
risk that there will be inhalation injury and enough
inflammation and swelling to obstruct the airway and
cause breathing problems.
burns to the chest, as the burn progresses, the tissue involved
may not allow enough motion of the chest wall to allow
adequate breathing to occur.
burns occur to arms, legs, fingers, or toes, the same
constriction may not allow blood flow.
Burns to areas of the body with flexion creases, like the palm
of the hand, the back of the knee, the face, and the groin may
need specialized care.
19. PRE HOSPITAL PHASE
Remove person from the source of burn
Self shield- by rescuers
Minor burn-<10% TBSA- cover with clean, cool, tap
water- dampened towel.
Assessment and management of ABC
A- Airway
B-Breathing
C-Circulation
21. EMERGENT PHASE
(Resuscitative phase)
Airway management
Early endotracheal intubation
Ventilator assistance- with PEEP
Assess ABG values
Extubation-when edema resolves
Assess lower respiratory tract by – fiberotic bronchoscopy
Humidified oxygen
Position-high fowler’s position(not for patients with spinal
injury)
If spinal injury- reserve tendelberg position
Deep breathing and coughing exercise
Reposition every 2hrs
Bronchodialators
O2 therapy until carboxyhemoglobin become normal.
22. EMERGENT PHASE
(Resuscitative phase)
Easing blood flow around the wound
If a burn scab (eschar) goes completely around a limb, it can
tighten and cut off the blood circulation. Escharotomies -
to relieve respiratory distress secondary to circumferential,
full thickness burns to the neck and trunk.

28. EXCISION AND GRAFTING
Autograft or autologous graft: skin obtained from
the patient’s own donor site.
Allograft or heterologous graft: skin obtained from
another person
Xenograft or heterograft: skin from other species,
such as pigs.
Synthetic skin substitutes: manufactured products
that work as skin equivalents. They may be epidermal
(keratinocyte cultures), dermal or dermoepidermal
(artificial skin).
38. PLASTIC SURGERY
Plastic surgery (reconstruction) can improve the
appearance of burn scars and increase the flexibility
of joints affected by scarring.
39. CHEMICAL BURN

It is always deep burn
There is a wound of entry and wound exit.
Patient may also have major internal
organ injuries. GIT, Thoracic injuries.
Often convulsion develop.
Death may occur due to cardiac arrhythmias.
41. COMPLICATION OF BURN
Burn shock
Pulmonary complications due to inhalation injury
Acute renal failure
Infections and sepsis
Curlin’s ulcer in large burns over 30% usually after 9th day
Extensive and disabling scarring
Psychological trauma
Cancer called Marjolin’s ulcer, may take 21 years to
develop.
42. NURSING DIAGNOSIS
Impaired gas exchange related to carbon monoxide
poisoning as evidenced by labored breathing.
Ineffective airway clearance related to edema and
effects of smoke inhalation and evidenced by
ventilator support.
Fluid volume deficit related to fluid loss as
manifested by decreased serum electrolyte level and
dry skin.
Acute pain related to impaired skin integrity as
manifested by facial expression.
43. NURSING DIAGNOSIS
Impaired skin integrity related to thermal injury as
manifested by blisters and lesions.
Imbalanced nutrition less than body requirement
related to inability to intake as evidence by weight
loss.
Activity intolerance related to weakness as evidenced
by verbalization.
Risk for infection related to impaired skin integrity
and suppressed immune response.
Risk for contracture related to the burn injury.
44. LIFESTYLE AND HOME REMEDIES TO TREAT
MINOR BURNS
Cool the burn. Hold the burned area under cool (not
cold) running water or apply a cool, wet compress until the
pain eases. Don't use ice. Putting ice directly on a burn can
cause further damage to the tissue.
Remove rings or other tight items. Try to do this
quickly and gently, before the burned area swells.
Don't break blisters. Fluid-filled blisters protect against
infection. If a blister breaks, clean the area with water (mild
soap is optional). Apply an antibiotic ointment. But if a rash
appears, stop using the ointment.
45. LIFESTYLE AND HOME REMEDIES TO
TREAT MINOR BURNS
Apply lotion. Once a burn is completely cooled, apply a
lotion, such as one that contains aloe vera or a moisturizer.
This helps prevent drying and provides relief.
Bandage the burn. Cover the burn with a sterile gauze
bandage (not fluffy cotton). Wrap it loosely to avoid putting
pressure on burned skin. Bandaging keeps air off the area,
reduces pain and protects blistered skin.
Take a pain reliever. Over-the-counter medications, such
as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others), naproxen sodium
(Aleve) or acetaminophen (Tylenol, others), can help relieve
pain.
Consider a tetanus shot. Make sure that your tetanus
booster is up to date. Doctors recommend that people get a
tetanus shot at least every 10 years.
