The document discusses preeclampsia, including its signs, symptoms, risk factors, diagnostic tests, pathophysiology, and treatment. Preeclampsia is a pregnancy complication characterized by high blood pressure and signs of damage to other organ systems. It is caused by abnormal development of the placenta leading to reduced blood flow and endothelial cell dysfunction systemically. Proper management involves monitoring blood pressure, delivering the baby to resolve symptoms, and potentially using antihypertensive medications.

Stages of labour and alternative therapiesSaima Habeeb
Birth is a normal, healthy part of a woman’s life. This unexplainable happiness is usually accompanied by severe pain due to contractions.
Labour is a health state that most women aspire to, at some point in their lives. The first thought that comes to the mind of an expecting woman regarding her delivery is the pain of labour.
Labour is a normal physiological process, which while should be an occasion for rejoicing
Intrapartum Care was developed for doctors and advanced midwives who care for women who deliver in district hospitals. It contains theory chapters and skills workshops adapted from the labour chapters of Maternal Care. Monitoring the mother, fetus, and progress of labour, the second and third stages of labour, managing pain, the puerperium and family planning
Complementary and alternative approaches to pain relief during laborpharmaindexing
Even though delivery is a natural phenomenon, it has been demonstrated that the accompanying pain is considered severe or extreme in more than half of cases. Besides conventional approaches, such as epidural analgesia, many complementary or alternative methods have been reported to reduce pain during labor and delivery. Not every woman wants traditional pain medication. Many moms-to-be want their labor and delivery to be as natural as possible (and for women who are recovering from drug and alcohol abuse, analgesics are usually a no-no), but still as comfortable as possible.

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.

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.

We, group 1 of JRU BSN A314, would like to thank Sta. Rita de Baclaran Hospital for allowing
us to choose a patient for our case. We also thank our clinical instructor, Mr. Belocura and our
preceptor Ms. Hazel Ann Cruz, for patiently teaching us and making sure we learn the most
from our clinical exposure.
Objectives
General Objectives – We did this case study for us to have a deeper understanding of what
preeclampsia is, thus to give us an idea of how we could give proper nursing care for our
clients with this condition.
Specific Objective - We hope to be able to address the client’s health needs and also to assess
for any health deficit or risks like acute pain, infection, and self-care.
Chapter 2 Assessment
A. Personal Data
Name: A.K.A ‘CHURVA”
Age: 30 yrs old
Sex: Female
Address: Baclaran City
Chief complaint: Labor pains
B. Past Medical History
The patient’s past history was post CS.
C. Present medical History
The patient was admitted Dec 1 2007 at 11: am; chief complaint was severe abdominal
pain and increasing B/P.
She was admitted in Sta. Rita Medical Hospital.
D. Family Health History
There’s a history of hypertension in the client’s family. Her mother had hypertension.
3. Diagnostic Procedures
Common laboratory tests to diagnose Pregnancy-induced hypertension would include
blood test, renal function, creatinine, and BUN. But these tests were not noted on the client’s
chart. What we found out instead is the continual rising of the client’s blood pressure from the
time she got in the hospital at 10am until she was admitted.
4. Blood pressure taking is one easy method to monitor the client’s blood pressure. The
client’s blood pressure was at 170/90 at 10am then increased to 170/100 at 12nn and reached
190/100 at 1pm. While the normal blood pressure is below 120/80; blood pressure between
120/80 and 139/89 is called "pre–hypertension", and a blood pressure of 140/90 or above is
considered high.
4. Anatomy & Physiology
The Circulatory (Cardiovascular)
System
The Circulatory System is designed to deliver oxygen and nutrients to all parts of the body and
pick up waste materials and toxins for elimination. This system is made up of the heart, the
veins, the arteries, and the capillaries.
Circulation is achieved by a continuous one-way movement of blood throughout the body. The
network of blood vessels that flow through the body is so extensive that blood flows within
close proximity to almost every cell.
Heart
The heart is a muscular pump that propels blood throughout the body. The heart is located
between the lungs, slightly to the left of center in the chest. The heart is broken down into
four chambers including:
• The right atrium, which is a chamber which receives oxygen- poor blood from the
veins.
• The right ventricle which pumps the oxygen-poor blood from the right atrium to the
lungs.
• The left atrium which receives the now oxygen-rich blood that is returning from the
lungs.
• The left ventricle, which pumps the oxygenated blood through the arteries to the rest
of the body.
Blood Vessels
Blood vessels are broken down into three groups: the arteries which carry blood out of the
heart to the capillaries, the veins which transport oxygen-poor blood back to the heart, and
the capillaries which transfer oxygen and other nutrients into the cells and removes carbon
dioxide and other metabolic waste from these body tissues.
Blood Pressure
Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels. The
output or direct pumping of the heart and the resistance to blood flow in the vessels
determines blood pressure. Resistance is determined by blood viscosity and by friction
5. between the blood and the wall of the blood vessel.
Blood pressure = blood flow x resistance.
