This document discusses the effects of extreme heat and cold on the human body. It explains that the body maintains a normal temperature through metabolism, external heat sources, and muscle activity. In hot conditions, blood vessels dilate to lose heat through sweating and breathing. In cold conditions, blood vessels contract to reduce heat loss. Prolonged cold exposure can lead to hypothermia, marked by shivering, pale skin, slow breathing and pulse, and loss of consciousness. Rewarming someone with hypothermia too quickly can cause fatal issues. Heat exhaustion occurs when the body cannot cool itself and loses salt and water through sweating, while heatstroke is a dangerous rise in core temperature above 40 degrees Celsius that requires immediate cooling

Precise guide for DGNM, B.Sc Nursing & M.Sc Nursing Students .. regarding Unconsciousness, and its management. Highly recommended for II B.Sc Nursing Students.
Few would disagree that nursing is one of the most underrated professions in modern times. Being a nurse isn’t easy. In fact, it is a field that can be extremely demanding and even unforgiving to those who pursue it. Being around the ailing and the frazzled for long hours and dealing with them patiently day after day can be challenging, to say the least.
if you like this kindly give your comment and share to others for a education purpose. and follow to my account on slide share to know the update. i tried to give the all information in this slide in detailed. in hope its helpful for you all.

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.
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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

3. HHeeaatt aanndd CCoolldd
The body’s thermostat is located in the brain and
enables the body temperature to be monitored
and to some extent, controlled at a level
approximately 36.9 degrees Celsius.
The temperature control can be affected by
extremes of external heat or cold, dehydration of
the body’s fluid content by injury to the head or
spine that in turn affects the central nervous
system.

Conversion of food into energy (metabolism),
from external heat sources and by muscle activity
In hot conditions blood vessels dilate allowing
excess heat to be lost through the skin (sweating)
and by increasing our breathing rate.
In cold conditions the blood vessels contract
which reduces sweating.
Trg03~Mod7 EXTREMITY TRAUMA 4
5. TThhee eeffffeeccttss ooff ccoolldd
Shuts down the blood vessels in the skin – this
stops the internal or core heat from escaping
During prolonged exposure to cold, wet and
windy conditions the core body temperature may
fall below 35 degrees Celsius causing normal
bodily function to slow down and eventually stop.
This is known as hypothermia.
Apart from the environmental conditions the
casualty’s age and general condition play a large
part in the development of hypothermia
Trg03~Mod7 EXTREMITY TRAUMA 5
6. TThhee eeffffeeccttss ooff ccoolldd
Re-warming a casualty too quickly can be fatal
especially if they are in poor health, have been
injured or have suffered prolonged exposure. This
will result in cold blood being circulated through
cold body tissue and will cause the blood to
become even colder and lower blood pressure.
Shock will occur and possible cardiac arrest.
Conscious cold casualty’s can – change wet
clothing for dry, give warm drinks, extra blankets
Do not let them move around as this will circualte
cold blood.
Trg03~Mod7 EXTREMITY TRAUMA 6
7. HHyyppootthheerrmmiiaa
Recognition
Shivering (this will stop as the condition
progresses)
Cold, pale and dry skin
Slow shallow breathing
Slow weak pulse
Strange irrational behaviour
Lethargy (very tired)
Unconsciousness leading to coma and cardiac
arrest
Trg03~Mod7 EXTREMITY TRAUMA 7
8. HHyyppootthheerrmmiiaa
Treatment
Find out how they have been exposed to the cold
for the length of exposure and the lower the body
temperature determines the rate at which you
should re-warm the casualty
If a young person fall into cold water but is
recovered quickly they will be a cold casualty but
not hypothermic. These casualties can be
warmed rapidly.
Remember a drop in the body temperature
causes hypothermia
Trg03~Mod7 EXTREMITY TRAUMA 8
9. HHyyppootthheerrmmiiaa
Treatment
Move the casualty to a sheltered and warm place
Keep the casualty in a horizontal position
Insulate them from the ground and surroundings
Treat for shock
Cover with blankets but do not overheat
Prevent heat escaping from the extremities
Call 999 or 112 and monitor their airway and
breathing….
Trg03~Mod7 EXTREMITY TRAUMA 9
10. HHyyppootthheerrmmiiaa
Treatment..
Do not give any food or drink
Do not rub the skin or put the casualty next to a
heat source
Do not stand them up or walk them around to get
warm
Do not overheat them warm them slowly

HHeeaatt EExxhhaauussttiioonn
When the body temperature exceed the
atmospheric temperature particularly in humid
conditions heat will not evaporate from the body.
This often takes place with strenuous exercise
causing a loss of salt and water from the body
(dehydration). This is known as heat exhaustion
and because the fluid component of the blood is
reduced and the casualty will suffer from shock.

When there is a failure of the thermostat in the
brain the body’s temperature will rise above 40
degrees Celsius. This may have been brought on
by uncontrollable heat exhaustion, prolonged
exposure to high temperatures or as a result of an
illness or fever. If this is not treated immediately
brain damage can occur.
