A cardiac event monitor is a device that you control to record the electrical activity of your heart (ECG). This device is about the size of a pager. It records your heart rate and rhythm. Cardiac event monitors are used when you need long-term monitoring of symptoms that occur less than daily
The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is a neurological scale which aims to give a reliable and objective way of recording the conscious state of a person for initial as well as subsequent assessment. A patient is assessed against the criteria of the scale, and the resulting points give a patient score between 3 (indicating deep unconsciousness) and either 14 (original scale) or 15 (more widely used modified or revised scale).

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Students, digital devices and success - Andreas Schleicher - 27 May 2024..pptxEduSkills OECD
Andreas Schleicher presents at the OECD webinar ‘Digital devices in schools: detrimental distraction or secret to success?’ on 27 May 2024. The presentation was based on findings from PISA 2022 results and the webinar helped launch the PISA in Focus ‘Managing screen time: How to protect and equip students against distraction’ https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/education/managing-screen-time_7c225af4-en and the OECD Education Policy Perspective ‘Students, digital devices and success’ can be found here - https://oe.cd/il/5yV
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”.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
2. INTRODUCTION:-
Sudden death occur when heartbeat &
breathing stop suddenly or unexpectedly.
the major role of CPR is to provide oxygen to
heart ,brain,& the other vital organ until
medical treatment (advance cardiac life
support-ACLS) can restore normal heart
action.
3. DEFINITION:-
Angela Morrow RN
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation
(CPR) is a procedure used when a patient's heart stops
beating and breathing stops. It can involve
compressions of the chest or electrical shocks along
with rescue breathing.
Mosby medical dictionary
CPR is a basic emergency
procedure for life support consisting of artificial and
manual external cardiac massage
.
6. Fluid imbalance
extensive hemorrhage, hypotension, shock
Neurological causes
brain injuries, massive cva
Poisons substance and drug overdose
co poisoning, propanolol over dose
Other causes
electrical shock, hypothermia, narcotic overdose
7. WARNING SIGNS OF CARDIO
PULMONARY ARREST:-
Early signs:
. loss of consciousness & convulsions
Late signs:
. Apnoea
.Dilated pupils
.Absence of heart sounds
8. Other signs
Changes in respiratory rate
A weak or irregular pulse
Bradycardia
Cyanosis
Hypothermia
10. EQUIPMENTS

13. STEPS FOR CPR:-
Airway:-Maintaining an open airway.
Breathing:-Providing artificial ventilation by rescue
breathing.
Circulation:-Promoting artificial circulation by
external cardiac compression.
Defibrillation:-Restoring the heart beat.
14. Shake shoulders gently
Ask “Are you all right?”
If he responds
• Leave as you find him.
• Find out what is wrong.
• Reassess regularly.
CHECK RESPONSE
27. • Place the heel of one hand in
the centre of the chest
• Place other hand on top
• Interlock fingers
• Compress the chest
– Rate 100 min-1
– Depth 3-5 cm(1.5 to 2 inches)
– Equal compression : relaxation
• When possible change CPR
operator every 2 min
CHEST COMPRESSIONS
31. (D) DEFIBRILLATION:-
Device that delivers direct electrical current
across the myocardium. The aim is to produce
synchronous depolarization of cardiac muscle
STRATEGIES:
Test defibrillate for
full battery charge
switch on power button
change paddle mode
32.
33. Key issues:
Paddle site: Rt intraclavicular region
lt lower axillary region
Paddle size: 8cm -12 cm
wave form patterns :

watch for convulsions
intubate if necessary
catheterize the patient and monitor output
record the procedure
38. POST CARDIAC ARREST MANAGEMENT:-
Continued care
To ensure hemodynamic monitoring
To minimize the effect of loss of spontaneous
circulation of various organs
To recognize and treat recurrent cardiac arrests
Objectives:
Optimize cardio pulmonary function& systemic
perfusion
Transport victim out of hospital
Identify and treat thre precipating factor
Intitute measure to prevent recurrence and improve
neurological function
39. Respiratory system;
Intubate & mechanically ventilate until they are stable
Administer supplemental oxygen
Obtain chest x ray
Administer drugs
Avoid hyperventilation
Cardio vascular system:
Obtain expert consultation

40. COMPLICATIONS OF CPR:-:-
Rib fractures
Laceration related to the tip of the
sternum
Liver, lung, spleen
Aspiration
