This document discusses airway obstruction in the dental office setting. It begins by outlining the chapter objectives, which include explaining causes of airway obstruction, prevention techniques, airway anatomy, different types of obstructions, and demonstrating procedures like the Heimlich maneuver. The document then discusses dental hazards that can cause obstructions and the anatomy of the airway. It outlines the different types of partial and complete obstructions and techniques for treating obstructions, including abdominal thrusts, chest thrusts, and finger sweeps.

This is a brief review of airway management (basics, exams and devices).
Special thanks to Dr. S. Malek for kind sharing of his valuable slides on this topic.
Anesthesia complications range from minor to catastrophic.
complications of general anesthesia might be due to difficulty in airway management or ventilation.
Also the complication might be due to cardiac arrhythmias and poor response to anesthetic effect during induction or maintenance or even the emergence from anesthesia.
So, the the systematic response to the effect of the anesthesia may occur at any time during surgery.
Some of the complications:
Hypoxia, arrhythmia, hypotension , hypertension, regurgitation and aspiration, hypothermia hypoglycemia, coronary ischemia, embolism, persistent apnea delayed recovery , and many others.
also regional anesthesia has its complications like nerve injury, post spinal headache.
Toxicity from local anesthesia is one of the important complication might occur during local infiltration.
AED is a portable type of external defibrillator that automatically diagnose the ventricular fibrillation in a patient.
Automatic refers to the ability to autonomously analyze the patients condition.AED is provided with self-adhesive electrodes instead of hand held paddles

An oropharyngeal airway (also known as an oral airway, OPA or Guedel pattern airway) is a medical device called an airway adjunct used in airway management.
Introduction:
Patients in any healthcare setting can quickly become acutely unwell, and assessment and management of the airway is always the priority in any clinical situation (Resuscitation Council UK, 2021). When patients are critically unwell, there is a high risk of respiratory deterioration, and many patients require an artificial airway to facilitate their treatment. Knowing how to assess and manage the airway is a key skill for the nurse working in critical care.

ICH Guidelines for Pharmacovigilance.pdfNEHA GUPTA
The "ICH Guidelines for Pharmacovigilance" PDF provides a comprehensive overview of the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) guidelines related to pharmacovigilance. These guidelines aim to ensure that drugs are safe and effective for patients by monitoring and assessing adverse effects, ensuring proper reporting systems, and improving risk management practices. The document is essential for professionals in the pharmaceutical industry, regulatory authorities, and healthcare providers, offering detailed procedures and standards for pharmacovigilance activities to enhance drug safety and protect public health.
Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The
