Hypotension is defined as low blood pressure, with a systolic pressure under 90 mm Hg or diastolic under 60 mm Hg. It can be caused by factors like low blood volume, medications, or certain syndromes. Symptoms include dizziness, fainting, fatigue, and blurred vision. Treatment depends on the severity and cause of hypotension. For mild asymptomatic cases, increasing fluid/electrolyte intake or caffeine may help. More severe cases may require medications to increase blood volume or vascular resistance. The goal of treatment is to maintain adequate tissue perfusion and address any underlying medical issues that are contributing to the low blood pressure.
Angina also known as angina pectoris is a medical condition characterized by chest pain usually left sided due to inadequate blood supply (ischemia) to the heart muscles due to obstruction (like presence of blood clot), narrowing or contraction (vasospasm) of the supplying coronary arteries.

Myocardial infarction (MI), commonly known as a heart attack, occurs when blood flow decreases or stops to a part of the heart, causing damage to the heart muscle. The most common symptom is chest pain or discomfort which may travel into the shoulder, arm, back, neck, or jaw.
Heart failure (HF) is a common cardiovascular condition with increasing incidence and prevalence. Unlike western countries where heart failure is predominantly a disease of elderly, in India it affects younger age group. Heart failure is a chronic condition in which the heart cannot pump enough blood and oxygen to support other organs in your body.

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.
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”.
How to Split Bills in the Odoo 17 POS ModuleCeline George
Bills have a main role in point of sale procedure. It will help to track sales, handling payments and giving receipts to customers. Bill splitting also has an important role in POS. For example, If some friends come together for dinner and if they want to divide the bill then it is possible by POS bill splitting. This slide will show how to split bills in odoo 17 POS.

As a training officer, my goal is to ensure that you are comfortable and proficient with this essential tool for managing assignments and fostering student engagement.
2. What is
Hypotension?
• Hypotension is low blood pressure. Blood
pressure is the force of blood pushing against
the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps out
blood.
• Blood pressure is indicated by two numbers,
the systolic blood pressure (the top number)
and the diastolic blood pressure (the bottom
number), which are the maximum and minimum
blood pressures, respectively.
• A systolic blood pressure of less than 90
millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) or diastolic of
less than 60 mm Hg is generally considered to
be hypotension.
• Severely low blood pressure can deprive the
brain and other vital organs of oxygen and
nutrients, leading to a life-threatening condition
called shock.
3. CAUSES
• Hypotension can be caused by
low blood volume (hypovolemia),
hormonal changes, widening of blood
vessels, anemia,
heart problems,or endocrine problems.
• Some medications can also lead to
hypotension. There are also
syndromes that can cause hypotension
in patients including orthostatic
hypotension, vasovagal syncope, and
other rarer conditions.
4. Signs and
symptoms
• chest pain
• shortness of breath
• irregular heartbeat
• fever higher than 38.3 °C (101 °F)
• headache
• stiff neck
• severe upper back pain
• cough with sputum
5. • Prolonged diarrhea or vomiting
• Dyspepsia (indigestion)
• Dysuria (painful urination)
• Acute, life-threatening allergic
reaction
• Seizures
• Loss of consciousness
• Profound fatigue
• Temporary blurring or loss of
vision
• Black tarry stools
6. Treatment
• Chronic hypotension rarely exists as more
than a symptom.
• Asymptomatic hypotension in healthy
people usually does not require treatment.
• Adding electrolytes to a diet can relieve
symptoms of mild hypotension.
• A morning dose of caffeine can also be
effective. In mild cases, where the patient is
still responsive, laying the person in dorsal
decubitus (lying on the back) position and
lifting the legs increases venous return, thus
making more blood available to critical
organs in the chest and head.
7. 1.Blood pressure support with a vasopressor (all seem equivalent
with respect to risk of death, with norepinephrine possibly better
than dopamine).
2.Trying to achieve a mean arterial pressure (MAP) of greater than
70 mmHg does not appear to result in better outcomes than trying
to achieve a MAP of greater than 65 mm Hg in adults.
3.Ensure adequate tissue perfusion (maintain SvO2 >70 with use of
blood or dobutamine)
4.Address the underlying problem (i.e., antibiotic
for infection, stent or CABG (coronary artery bypass graft surgery)
for infarction, steroids for adrenal insufficiency, etc...)
5.The best way to determine if a person will benefit from fluids is by
doing a passive leg raise followed by measuring the output from
the heart.
8. • Medication
• Chronic hypotension sometimes requires the use of
medications. Some medications that are commonly used
include Fludrocortisone, Erythropoietin,
and Sympathomimetics such
as Midodrine and Noradrenaline .
• Fludrocortisone is the first-line therapy (in the absence of
heart failure) for patients with chronic hypotension or
resistant orthostatic hypotension. It works by increasing
the intravascular volume.
• Midodrine is a therapy used for severe orthostatic
hypotension, and works by increasing peripheral vascular
resistance.
• Noradrenaline is used for primary autonomic dysfunction
by increasing vascular tone.
• Erythropoietin is given to patients with neurogenic
orthostatic hypotension and it works through increasing
vascular volume and viscosity.
