Sinusitis can lead to several intracranial and extracranial complications. Intracranial complications include meningitis, encephalitis, extradural abscess, subdural abscess, brain abscess, and cavernous sinus thrombosis which occur due to the spread of infection from paranasal sinuses to the brain. Extracranial complications include descending infections that can cause otitis media, pharyngitis, tonsillitis, laryngitis, and tracheobronchitis. Sinusitis may also act as a focus of infection leading to conditions like polyarthritis, tenosynovitis, and fibrositis.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

3. INTRACRANIAL COMPLICATIONS:-
• Frontal , ethmoid , and sphenoid sinuses are closed related to
the anterior cranial fossa.
• Infections from these causes -
MENINGITIS & ENCEPHALITIS.
EXTRADURAL ABSCESS.
SUBDURAL ABSCESS.
BRAIN ABSCESS.
CAVERNOUS SINUS THROMBOSIS.
4. MENINGITIS :-
• Sinus infection if left untreated , has a potential to spread to our
meninges causing them to be inflamed and the condition is know
as meningitis.
• C/F :- high grade fever , neck stiffness , headache , nausea ,
vomiting , seizures and drowsiness.
• Diagnosis :- diagnosed by lumbar puncture , CT SCAN , MRI SCAN.
• Treatment :- antibiotic therapy.
5.
6. EXTRADURAL ABSCESS:-
• Brain abscess , subdural empyema and epidural abscess are three of the most
commonly encountered focal supportive processes of the central nervous system.
• Frontal lobe abscesses are frequently caused by purulent nasal sinusitis.
• C/F :- Headache , changes in consciousness , vomiting , changes in sensation ,
weakness , trouble moving or walking , loss of bladder or bowel control.
• DIAGNOSIS :- Blood culture , CBC , CT SCAN , MRI
• TREATMENT :- epidural abscess related to sinusitis in children , drainage and
antibiotics treatment without surgery is the ideal choice.
8. SUBDURAL ABSCESS:-
• A chronic sinus infection can often lead to the collection of pus in a
potential space between the outer and middle layers of our
meninges (the subdural space), defining a condition known as the
subdural abscess.
• C/F – same as of meningitis along with changes in mental status like
confusion and irritability .
• Diagnosis – blood culture , CBC , CT SCAN , MRI SCAN.
• Treatment – surgical drainage to prevent coma and death from
rapidly rising pressure in brain along with antibiotic therapy.
9.
10. BRAIN ABSCESS:-
• A brain abscess is a localized collection of pus within our brain substance.
• It occurs because of the direct spread of infection from our paranasal sinuses.
• C/F- headache , change in mental state , problems with nerve function such as
muscle weakness , slurred speech or paralysis on one side of the body, fever ,
seizures , stiff neck.
• DIAGNOSIS – CT guided aspiration used to remove pus for testing , MRI , CBC.
• TREATMENT – Antibiotic therapy , draining of pus through surgical procedures.
11.
12. CAVERNOUS SINUS. ( ANATOMY )
• Cavernous sinus is a large venous space situated on
either side of the body of the sphenoid and sella turcica in
the middle cranial fossa.
• Floor - endosteal layer.
• Wall , roof , medial wall – meningeal layer.
13.
14. CAVERNOUS SINUS THROMBOSIS.
• It occurs mainly due to the infection of ethmoid and
sphenoid sinuses.
• It is also cause by the infections from the frontal and
orbital complications.
• Causes thrombophlebitis of the cavernous sinus spreading
via the superior and inferior ophthalmic veins.
17. CLINICAL FEATURES.
• Onset – abrupt.
• Chills
• Rigors.
• Swollen eyelids.
• Chemosis and proptosis of eyeballs.
• Cranial nerves III , IV , VI gets involved and causes
ophthalmoplegia.
18. CONTD….
• dilated pupils.
• congestion of optic disc.
• diminution of vision.
• Sensation in the distribution of ophthalmic branch of CN
V is diminished.
19.
20. DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT.
• Contrast enhanced CT scan or MRI is used for diagnosis.
• Treatment consist of IV antibiotics and proper drainage of
infected ethmoid and sphenoid sinus.
21. DESCENDING INFECTIONS:-
In suppurative sinusitis , discharge constantly flows into the
pharynx and causes:-
• Acute and chronic otitis media.
• Pharyngitis and tonsillitis.
• Persistent laryngitis and tracheobronchitis.
22. ACUTE AND CHRONIC OTITIS MEDIA:-
• In sinusitis , mucus is accumulated in
sinuses which travel throughout and
reaches the medial ear through
eustachian tube , thereby causing
inflammation there.
23. PHARYNGITIS AND TONSILITIS:-
• Sinus infection can often lead to
complications with post nasal drip
where excess mucus is drained down
to throat resulting in sore throat and
cough.
• Hypertrophy of lateral lymphoid
bands behind the posterior pillars is
indicative of chronic sinusitis.
25. FOCAL INFECTIONS:-
• Role of sinus infection to act as focus of infection is
doubtful.
• Conditions responding to elimination of infection in the
sinuses are-
• Polyarthritis.
• Tenosynovitis.
• Fibrositis.
26. POLYARTHITIS:-
• It is referred to the condition where
at least five joints are affected with
arthritis.
• it may be caused due to sinusitis.
27. TENOSYNOVITIS:-
• Tenosynovitis is a broadly defined as
inflammation of a tendon and its
respective synovial sheath.
• May be caused by sinusitis.
28. FIBROSITIS:-
• Fibrositis can be defined as the pain
or inflammation of the muscle
sheaths, muscles and connective-
tissue layers of the joints, bones,
tendons and muscles.
• The regularly affected areas in
fibrositis are the muscular regions of
the lower back, thighs, hips, arms,
chest, neck, shoulder and thighs.
• age commonly affected= 30 to 60
years.
• Women are affected more than men.
