The document discusses the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) which are used to assess impaired consciousness and cognitive status. The GCS evaluates eye opening, motor, and verbal responses on a scale of 3-15 to describe consciousness impairment. The MMSE is a screening tool that assesses cognition on a scale of 0-30, with scores below 18 indicating severe impairment. Both are commonly used for interdisciplinary communication about a patient's brain injury severity and cognitive disorders.

MOTOR RELEARNING PROGRAM- A physiotherapy approch.pptx
Motor relearning is a frequently used mode of retraining neurologically assaulted patients.lets explore the principles and examples of relearning movement.
Syringomylia Physiotherapy Percpective.pptx
Syringomyelia is a condition where an abnormal fluid-filled cavity forms within the spinal cord, compressing the spinal cord and nerve tracts. It is usually caused by conditions that obstruct the flow of cerebrospinal fluid such as Arnold-Chiari malformation, meningitis, or spinal cord trauma. Symptoms depend on the location of the syrinx within the spinal cord and can include loss of sensation, neuropathic pain, spasticity, weakness, scoliosis, bowel and bladder dysfunction, and headaches. An MRI is needed for definitive diagnosis. Treatment focuses on addressing the underlying cause through surgery if possible. Physiotherapy management identifies impairments and develops compensatory or restorative treatment approaches through goal setting

Cranial Nerve assesment-Physiotherapy perspective.pptx
This document provides information on various cranial nerves including their functions, testing methods, and abnormalities. It discusses the olfactory nerve and how anosmia can result from injury to sites in the olfactory pathway. For the optic nerve, it describes testing visual acuity with an eye chart and visual fields with confrontation testing, and conditions like blindness, myopia and presbyopia that can arise from abnormalities. Various cranial nerves like the oculomotor, trochlear, abducens and others are also covered, along with their functions and testing methods.
Voluntary Control and Assessment Physiotherapy Perspective.pptx
This document discusses voluntary control of movements and assessment methods. Voluntary control is the ability to produce and control movements volitionally and adapt to tasks and the environment. Normal synergy involves linked muscles acting cooperatively, while abnormal synergy is stereotypical and non-adaptable. Assessment can be qualitative using grading scales or quantitative using tools like the Fugl-Meyer Assessment which evaluates motor function, sensation, balance, and range of motion. The Trunk Impairment Scale assesses trunk control in sitting and coordination. Good assessment informs effective treatment.

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.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.
Role of Mukta Pishti in the Management of Hyperthyroidism
Muktapishti is a traditional Ayurvedic preparation made from Shoditha Mukta (Purified Pearl), is believed to help regulate thyroid function and reduce symptoms of hyperthyroidism due to its cooling and balancing properties. Clinical evidence on its efficacy remains limited, necessitating further research to validate its therapeutic benefits.
