Alexis Georgia outlined six goals she wished to accomplish during her internship at Clemson-Seneca Pediatrics. These included being able to conduct vision, hearing, and strep tests without assistance; complete all client intake, lab order, and lab results forms; conduct an 18-year-old well visit without aids; understand how the practice evaluates ADD medication effectiveness; and communicate her interest in pursuing a career in pediatrics. By the end of the internship she was able to achieve all of her goals through demonstration, practice, repetition, and the guidance of her preceptors and other medical professionals.

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.
Antimicrobial stewardship to prevent antimicrobial resistanceGovindRankawat1
India is among the nations with the highest burden of bacterial infections.
India is one of the largest consumers of antibiotics worldwide.
India carries one of the largest burdens of drug‑resistant pathogens worldwide.
Highest burden of multidrug‑resistant tuberculosis,
Alarmingly high resistance among Gram‑negative and Gram‑positive bacteria even to newer antimicrobials such as carbapenems.
NDM‑1 ( New Delhi Metallo Beta lactamase 1, an enzyme which inactivates majority of Beta lactam antibiotics including carbapenems) was reported in 2008

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

2. Learning Goals & Objectives
During my first week of internship at Clemson-Seneca
Pediatrics I outlined six goals that I wished to accomplish
before my time at the site was through. The following slides
depict the goals I set for myself and how I was able to
achieve them.
3. Health Assessment Goals
By the end of my fieldwork experience, I will be able to
conduct vision and hearing exams without help.
One of the nurses, Erica Thrift, showed me how to conduct the various vision
screenings for different age groups and the hearing screening during my
second week at my internship. Because we conduct these screenings quite
regularly she demonstrated how to administer each test on a patient first,
allowed the other intern and myself to practice on each other, and then watched
us conduct the tests on patients until she was confident we could conduct each
test without her help.
4. Health Assessment Goals
By the end of my fieldwork experience, I will be able to
conduct a strep test.
My preceptor, Melanie Harris, taught me how to conduct a strep test. My first
strep test was conducted on an teenage patient. I had watched the nurses
conduct step tests before and my preceptor decided I was ready to try it myself.
She explained the proper technique to me, and after I swabbed the patients
throat, she walked me through running a rapid strep test.
5. Health Planning Goal
By the end of my internship, I will be able to complete all
client intake forms, lab order forms, and lab results forms.
I was shown how to work the electronic chart system very first week of my
internship. Because the charting was hard to get the hang of at first, all of the
nurses helped show me where the correct forms were and which boxes I
needed to check. This goal I had to learn the most rapidly because it was used
for every patient that walked through our doors. I was able to accomplish this
goal through practice, repetition, and the patience of the nurses teaching me.
6. Implementation Goal
By the end of my internship, I will be able to conduct an 18-
year-old well visit without a visual aid.
This goal took the longest for me to master. In each well child check there is a
list of very specific questions we must ask, and they are different at each age. I
began by asking questions without looking at the list. After asking all the
questions I could remember I would pull out the list and asking the ones I had
missed, until eventually I did not miss any questions.
7. Evaluation Goal
By the end of my fieldwork, I will be able to understand how
Clemson Pediatrics evaluates the effectiveness of ADD
medication in patients.
To achieve this goal I began by conducting ADD consult intakes and charting.
Whenever I would work up an ADD consult the patients parent would hand me
a Vanderbilt assessment form. Another nurse, Corbrina Pinson, then showed
me how to grade the form and what each score meant in regards to how
effective the patients medication was.
8. Affective Goal
By the end of my internship, I will be able to communicate
how I feel about pursuing a career in pediatrics.
Through talking to the doctors and nurses about their experiences in pediatrics,
the reasons they chose pediatrics in the first place, and drawing on my own
experience while at CSP I was able to realize that I would love to pursue a
career in pediatrics. Each day I left the office feeling accomplished and like I
made a difference in a patients life, and that is the reason I wanted to go into
the medical field in the first place.
