This document describes a comparative analysis project that evaluated whether a rapid qualitative analysis approach could deliver findings more quickly than a traditional in-depth analysis method. The rapid analysis used summary templates to analyze data within a short timeframe, while the in-depth analysis used coding and the Framework method. The results found that rapid analysis was much faster for data management but took longer for interpretation. Both methods produced similar key issues and recommendations, but the in-depth analysis provided more specific, context-informed findings. The document reflects on the applications and limitations of rapid qualitative analysis approaches.
Action research involves teachers systematically examining their own practices by identifying an area of focus or question, collecting relevant information to answer the question, analyzing the information, and sharing results. The process helps improve teaching practices through planned, cyclical inquiry. Some key aspects of action research include developing open-ended, meaningful questions; collecting multiple sources of direct, relevant data; analyzing data for themes and redundancies; and sharing results which can lead to further questions or interpretations.
The document outlines the process of practice management for opening a new school health clinic. It involves 4 key steps: 1) Planning - assessing needs, setting SMART objectives, and strategic planning. 2) Preparation - organizing resources, space, staff, budget, and protocols. 3) Implementation - advertising the clinic and assigning roles. 4) Reviewing - collecting data, assessing performance against standards, identifying areas for improvement, and reassessing over time. The goal is to efficiently meet the healthcare needs of the community through balanced and cost-effective systems.
This study aims to examine the effect of resident fatigue on simulation training outcomes. Sixteen emergency medicine residents will participate in a pediatric sepsis simulation scenario at the beginning of a 12-hour day shift and at the conclusion of a 12-hour night shift, with a 12-week washout period. Resident performance will be assessed using a tool to measure completion of critical interventions and the time taken to complete tasks. The study will use paired statistical testing in a cross-over model to analyze results and determine if fatigue negatively impacts resident performance in simulations. The researchers hope this study can help determine the optimal shift length and schedule to limit fatigue and improve patient care and resident learning.
This presentation describes a pediatric and med-peds resident resuscitation quality improvement program using mock code simulations. The program aims to provide residents with additional code experience through simulations and assess changes in their performance scores pre- and post-program.

Scientific method vs arbitory method, Research Methods, Research Methodology SUJITH P S
The document discusses the scientific method and compares it to arbitrary methods. The scientific method is described as a systematic, rational approach based on objective evidence and verifiable facts. In contrast, arbitrary methods rely on imagination, opinion, and blind belief rather than evidence and can vary between individuals. The scientific method involves forming hypotheses and testing them through precise observation and experimentation, while arbitrary methods are subjective. Basic elements of the scientific method include replicability, precision, falsifiability, and parsimony.
Elicitation refers to obtaining data from subjects through procedures like standardized tests, questionnaires, and interviews. Surveys are a commonly used descriptive method in educational research and can vary in scope from large governmental investigations to small single-researcher studies. Questionnaires are a popular means of collecting written data through open-ended and closed-ended questions from subjects. Interviews can range from unstructured to semi-structured to structured based on their formality, and involve eliciting data from one person by another through in-person encounters. Both tape-recording and note-taking during interviews have strengths and weaknesses for preserving data.
This document discusses evidence-based practice in education. It begins by explaining why evidence-based practice is needed using an analogy of a doctor prescribing medication without examining a patient. The document then outlines a model of evidence-based practice that uses multiple sources of evidence, including research, expertise, student data and context. It discusses some common misconceptions, such as evidence-based practice ignoring teacher expertise. Tools for evidence-based practice like the PICO framework for forming questions are introduced. The document concludes by presenting a theory of action for how evidence-based practice can improve student outcomes through changes in teacher and leader behavior.

CONDUCTION SYSTEM OF THE HEART
ECG:
●ECG is a graphic record of the electrical activity of the heart.
●Electrical activity precedes the mechanical activity of the heart.
●Electrical activity has two phases:
Depolarization- contraction of muscle
Repolarization- relaxation of muscle
ECG Leads:
●6 Chest leads
●6 Limb leads
1. Bipolar Limb Leads:
Lead 1- Between right arm(-ve) and left arm(+ve)
Lead 2- Between right arm(-ve) and left leg(+ve)
Lead 3- Between left arm(-ve)
and left leg(+ve)
2. Augmented unipolar Limb Leads:
AvR- Right arm
AvL- Left arm
AvF- Left leg
3.Chest Leads:
V1 : Over 4th intercostal
space near right sternal margin
V2: Over 4th intercostal space near left sternal margin
V3:In between V2 and V4
V4:Over left 5th intercostal space on the mid
clavicular line
V5:Over left 5th intercostal space on the anterior
axillary line
V6:Over left 5th intercostal space on the mid
axillary line.
Normal ECG:
Waves of ECG:
P Wave
•P Wave is a positive wave and the first wave in ECG.
•It is also called as atrial complex.
Cause: Atrial depolarisation
Duration: 0.1 sec
QRS Complex:
•QRS’ complex is also called the initial ventricular complex.
•‘Q’ wave is a small negative wave. It is continued as the tall ‘R’ wave, which is a positive wave.
‘R’ wave is followed by a small negative wave, the ‘S’ wave.
Cause:Ventricular depolarization and atrial repolarization
Duration: 0.08- 0.10 sec
T Wave:
•‘T’ wave is the final ventricular complex and is a positive wave.
Cause:Ventricular repolarization Duration: 0.2 sec
Intervals and Segments of ECG:
P-R Interval:
•‘P-R’ interval is the interval
between the onset of ‘P’wave and onset of ‘Q’ wave.
•‘P-R’ interval cause atrial depolarization and conduction of impulses through AV node.
Duration:0.18 (0.12 to 0.2) sec
Q-T Interval:
•‘Q-T’ interval is the interval between the onset of ‘Q’
wave and the end of ‘T’ wave.
•‘Q-T’ interval indicates the ventricular depolarization
and ventricular repolarization,
i.e. it signifies the
electrical activity in ventricles.
Duration:0.4-0.42sec
S-T Segment:
•‘S-T’ segment is the time interval between the end of ‘S’ wave and the onset of ‘T’ wave.
Duration: 0.08 sec
R-R Interval:
•‘R-R’ interval is the time interval between two consecutive ‘R’ waves.
•It signifies the duration of one cardiac cycle.
Duration: 0.8 sec
Dimension of ECG:

Heart Rate more than 100 beats/min
Research, Monitoring and Evaluation, in Public Healthaghedogodday
This is a presentation on the overview of the role of monitoring and evaluation in public health. It describes the various components and how a robust M&E system can possitively impact the results or effectiveness of a public health intervention.
The facial nerve, also known as cranial nerve VII, is one of the 12 cranial nerves originating from the brain. It's a mixed nerve, meaning it contains both sensory and motor fibres, and it plays a crucial role in controlling various facial muscles, as well as conveying sensory information from the taste buds on the anterior two-thirds of the tongue.
THE SPECIAL SENCES- Unlocking the Wonders of the Special Senses: Sight, Sound...Nursing Mastery
Title: Unlocking the Wonders of the Special Senses: Sight, Sound, Smell, Taste, and Balance
Introduction:
Welcome to our captivating SlideShare presentation on the Special Senses, where we delve into the extraordinary capabilities that allow us to perceive and interact with the world around us. Join us on a sensory journey as we explore the intricate structures and functions of sight, sound, smell, taste, and balance.
The special senses are our primary means of experiencing and interpreting the environment, each sense providing unique and vital information that shapes our perceptions and responses. These senses are facilitated by highly specialized organs and complex neural pathways, enabling us to see a vibrant sunset, hear a symphony, savor a delicious meal, detect a fragrant flower, and maintain our equilibrium.
In this presentation, we will:
Visual System (Sight): Dive into the anatomy and physiology of the eye, exploring how light is converted into electrical signals and processed by the brain to create the images we see. Understand common vision disorders and the mechanisms behind corrective measures like glasses and contact lenses.
Auditory System (Hearing): Examine the structures of the ear and the process of sound wave transduction, from the outer ear to the cochlea and auditory nerve. Learn about hearing loss, auditory processing, and the advances in hearing aid technology.
Olfactory System (Smell): Discover the olfactory receptors and pathways that enable the detection of thousands of different odors. Explore the connection between smell and memory and the impact of olfactory disorders on quality of life.
Gustatory System (Taste): Uncover the taste buds and the five basic tastes – sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami. Delve into the interplay between taste and smell and the factors influencing our food preferences and eating habits.
Vestibular System (Balance): Investigate the inner ear structures responsible for balance and spatial orientation. Understand how the vestibular system helps maintain posture and coordination, and explore common vestibular disorders and their effects.
Through engaging visuals, interactive diagrams, and insightful explanations, we aim to illuminate the complexities of the special senses and their profound impact on our daily lives. Whether you're a student, educator, or simply curious about how we perceive the world, this presentation will provide valuable insights into the remarkable capabilities of the human sensory system.
Join us as we unlock the wonders of the special senses and gain a deeper appreciation for the intricate mechanisms that allow us to experience the richness of our environment.

Emphysema is a disease condition of respiratory system.
Emphysema is an abnormal permanent enlargement of the air spaces distal to terminal bronchioles, accompanied by destruction of their walls and without obvious fibrosis.
Emphysema of lung is defined as hyper inflation of the lung ais spaces due to obstruction of non respiratory bronchioles as due to loss of elasticity of alveoli.
It is a type of chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease.
It is a progressive disease of lungs.

interventions, and provide necessary resources to those in need.
Safe start logo for Safe Sleep project Safe start logo for Scald Burn project
Home visits and self-report surveys are used as a means of data
collection for the Safe Start project that aims to provide education
and intervention on safe sleep and scald burn related injuries.
Home visitors have first-hand experience conducting data
collection. They can encourage the study participants to provide
honest answers. The study participants can get on-site education
by the data collector on how to properly use and set up the safety
products in their living space.
The following training was used to be enrolled as a data
collector for the Safe Start project.
• Learn about the unintentional injuries that led to the initiation
of this project, by studying existing education material and
online research.
• Understand the safety policies by studying existing policies,
laws and regulations.
• Engage in a training session comprised of the project
supervisor and directors.
• Read the training manual for better understanding of the
project and expectations as data collectors.
• Participate in role playing with the Safe Start project’s research
assistant for better understanding of the survey and to build
confidence as a data collector.
• Complete Q&A with the research assistant about the project.
• Perform 5-10 observations before leading the home visits.
Important guidelines to be followed by data collectors:
• Gather information as presented by the study participants and
staying neutral to the answer provided.
• Encourage study participants for accurate and honest answers.
• Provide important resources to the study participants to help
them address the issues identified during home visits.
The parents of newborn babies who participated in the program
were the beneficiaries. However, the training and the experience
also helped myself as a health educator to garner in-depth
knowledge about home visit and data collection methods.
The outcome comprised of:
• Learning different methods encompassed within research
studies; namely, self-report survey and data collection through
home visits.
• Understanding the ethical consideration of confidentiality and
staying focused on the task at hand.
• Communicating and coordinating time and location of home
visit with research assistant.
• Understanding the psyche of individuals from different walks
of life.
• Displaying professional behavior throughout the interview
session.
• Resolving inconsistencies in study participant’s response
through better clarification and explanation.
• Identifying and reporting problems for data collection.
• Educating the study participants about different safety ideas.
• Providing education materials and safety products as needed.
