ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
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.

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.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
2. Introduction
Hyperactive children is a little help for parents with children
superactive that their behavior is worrying, at the of home or
stay in class all morning… many people unknown what is the
hyperactivity, hope will be of great help and can guide you in
your search…
3. What is Hiperactivity?
It is a neurological disorder characterized by
behavioral moderate to severe distractibility,
short attention span, restlessness, emotional
instability, impulsive behavior.
It is the inability to focus attention, to daily
activities and academic and may be
accompanied by an overactive or underactive.
(ADHD).
Hyperactivity is a behavioral disorder of
children, first described in 1902 by Still. These
are children who develop an intense motor
activity, which move continuously, without all
this activity has a purpose. They go from one
side to another and may start a task, but
quickly leaving to start another, which in turn,
re-let unfinished. This hyperactivity increases
when in the presence of others, especially
those who do not frequent relations.
The disorder attention deficit
hyperactivity disorder is characterized by:
Difficulty paying attention
(inattention).
Excessive motor activity
(hyperactivity).
Difficulties to inhibit impulsive
behavior (impulsivity).
Symptoms of ADHD hyperactivity-impulsivity:
Presents concern, the child moves into the seat
and find it difficult to be in class at her desk
• He gets up when he should be sitting
• Run and jump in inappropriate situations
especially in places where they must wait
• Has difficulty playing quietly
• Excited often "like a motorcycle"
• Talks excessively and does so in situations
that should not
• Responds before the end of the question
• Has difficulty
keeping the turn in
group activities
• Interrupts other in
games,
conversations, etc..
Symptoms of ADHD with inattention:
• Not attending to details, makes mistakes
• has difficulty sustaining attention in
activities being undertaken
• It seems that you do not hear "reverie"
• Does not follow instructions, not completing
tasks
• Has difficulty organizing
• Avoids tasks that require concentrated effort
continued
• forgets and loses things necessary for its
activity
• easily distracted by extraneous stimuli
• forget daily tasks
The treatment for
hyperactivity depends on each
individual situation, there are
cases more complex than
others, and only in extreme
cases resort to stimulants and
other drug supplements that
help the child focus better.
Above all things, it is recommended that
children with hyperactivity, are controlled
through a psychotherapeutic treatment that
helps to improve not only their concentration
but also in dealing with other people, in order
to provide a life healthier. There are also other
cognitively oriented treatments, seeking to
recover on the child's desire to learn and be
involved in something with focus, and improve
their communication with the environment.
4. How is ADHD Identified?
The proper way to identify ADHD in children generally includes gathering detailed
information from parents, teachers and tutors with whom young people spend much of
their time. The clinician compiles this information from notes and cumulative records on
behaviors. Moreover, parents, tutors and
teachers are provided with behavior
assessment scales allowing them to
consider disruptive behaviors. For each
case, observation and assessment
protocols allow a more formal analysis of
the children with ADHD's history of
development (BASC for children and
teenagers aged between 4 and 18 years
old; C.R. Reynolds and R.W. Kamphaus
1994).
It is also very important to take into account the persistent and inappropriate models of
inattention and hyperactivity-impulsiveness in the diagnosis, as well as school, social,
and familial dysfunctions, as previously mentioned.
In children less than 5-years-old showing signs and symptoms related to ADHD,
assessments must be administered according to the child's developmental level. It is
considered inappropriate to make closed diagnoses or to label the child permanently if
he/she has not yet integrated the first level
of school. Among others, factors
associated with lack of maturity in sphincter
control and personal care management
must be considered. Behaviors towards
work schedules established in far-reaching
structured programs divided in thematic
areas are also important to take into
consideration.
5. A hyperactive child at home
A hyperactive child is a child with a lot of energy, these are children who are often ask where the OFF
button. Nannies usually do not return, the relatives not invited to parties and if they do warn
conditions.
usually parents are often tired cranky, at home the atmosphere is
tense, the siblings fight, accuse, mom and dad are like in the middle
of a war, but we know we have a hyperactive and overactive not the
house will be disaster.
The hyperactive child becomes a child with a special condition that
will rely heavily on the family environment in which to develop his
childhood.
A healthy adult, responsible depends on their childhood
It is difficult for parents to accept that it is a condition because they
are children apparently equal than others, but it turns out you need a
little more attention, care and assistance from experts, children are
usually expensive because they need a psychologist, psychologist,
neurologist pharmacological treatment and other ...
Tools practical, simple and affordable for parents and families of hyperactive children is patience,
LOVE, LOVE, character, respect, family life strategies, be ordered in all aspects of home, set
parameters for a harmony in the home and above all trust in GOD.
They are not poorly educated, poorly bred, as many labeled fools ..
THEY ARE HIPERACTIVE CHILDREN
