Recommended for both professionals and individuals, this presentation will explore how our digitally-based devices and behaviours have and will perpetually continue to affect, effect, and alter our lives, lifestyles, and careers.
DR DON GRANT - UNPLUG TO RECONNECT: HEALTHY DEVICE MANAGEMENT & THE PRACTICE ...iCAADEvents
Millennial technology pro ers previously unimaginable opportunities which have forever changed much of our daily lives. Conversely, technology and devices have also become the newest and most potentially dangerous “drugs of choice”. Those struggling with anxiety, depression and other mental, emotional or behavioural issues seem to be at an even greater risk for technology “addiction”. Recent research has indicated that it can lower relationship and life satisfaction in couples. Similarly, adolescents who struggled with device management had lower levels of self esteem and were more likely to manifest social anxiety disorders. Dr. Grant will explore this newest nemesis currently growing to seemingly pandemic global proportions, illustrating both the positive and potentially negative e ects of technology, and o er strategies and skills to help promote healthy device management and to practice good “Digital Citizenship.”

Social Media 101 for Parents: Do you know where your children are?Sarah Welstead
Designed as an introduction to social media and social networking for parents of kids aged 5-18, the presentation contains an overview of leading social networks, information about security and privacy of particular interest to parents, and practical tips on how to ensure kids are being smart and safe online.
Perfect for an audience of parents who are comfortable with the internet but whose social media knowledge/experience is limited.
The author, Kate O'Neil (a keynote speaker and author who writes extensively about the human experience, particularly where it intersects with data and technology) notes in this article "10 years ago I probably would have played along with the profile picture aging meme going around on Facebook and Instagram. Now? I ponder how all this data could be mined to train facial recognition algorithms on age progression and age recognition". It's a powerful article, taking us down a path where this data flows downstream and becomes enmeshed with our location tracking, response and purchase behavior, and other signals, where "it could bring about some genuinely creepy interactions".
Internet Safety for Families and ChildrenBarry Caplin
The Internet is a useful and important part of our daily lives. Many can't
remember how we handled even the most mundane tasks without online
assistance. How did we even survive when we were kids? :-) However, along
with the good, there is bad. Children and teens (but not their parents!) are
very well versed in using the Internet, including web pages, blogs,
uploading and downloading information, music and photos, etc. They are also
trusting. This presentation will give an overview of the Internet and the
inherent dangers. Learn the realities and dangers of ``virtual communities''
websites your kids frequent like Xanga.com, MySpace.com and FaceBook.com.
Learn about the persistence of information on the net and Google hacking.
Learn the differences between a wiki, blog, Instant Messaging, text
messaging, and chat. Learn the Internet slang, key warning signs, and tips
for Parents and Kids. This talk is for anyone who has a child, who knows a
child, or who ever was a child!

Original article from the Flevy business blog can be found here:
http://flevy.com/blog/tethered-to-technology/
Note from the Editor: This article was originally published in the Reading Eagle’s Business Weekly and is re-posted with their permission. It was contributed by Dr. Santo D. Marabella, The Practical Prof(R).
* * * *
Today, The Practical Prof makes a stunning revelation: I suffer from a serious syndrome known as TTT – Tethered To Technology.
Here’s how I know. I currently manage: 9 social media accounts including Twitter, LinkedIn, and multiple Facebook pages or groups; 7 different email accounts – 6 of which are business, and one for community and personal activities; 4 different websites; two laptops, a desktop computer, an iPad, a smartphone and a landline phone with four extensions.
Ridiculous? Yes. Alone? Nope. Sadly, there are many who suffer with me. Let’s look at some consumer data from Civic Science based on about 9000 responses:
• 64% use a smartphone
• 43% own a tablet computer
• 28% own an e-reader
• 52% watch 2 or more hours of TV per day, not so surprising perhaps, but nearly half of those people are multi-tasking with a second screen device – checking email, playing games, sending texts
Plus, the same study reports that 60% of people with technology never (43%) or seldom (a few times per year) (17%) disconnect from their technology. While there seems to be no demographic pattern to who unplugs, children 13-18 and people over 55 are the most likely to disconnect daily.
But, isn’t technology making our lives easier, making communication faster, and the quality of communication better? Perhaps. But, I worry that in a time when we have never had more ways to communicate, we have never been less communicative. Here are some of the drawbacks I see to being tethered to technology.
Social media tools such as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter became part of people’s everyday life. Used well, they can add to your learning experience, and make you a better shepherd of your flock in the future. But used poorly, they can cause lasting damage to you and others.
iCAAD Paris 2019 - Stuart Fenton - LGBT, the Courageous Communitiy: from stig...iCAADEvents
Stu Fenton will address the many specificities of the LGBT communities and individualities through a multifaceted approach linking identity quest, painful stigmas of Chemsex and addiction, and most importantly the courage and mindfulness of a community facing its challenges with hope and determination. We have so much to learn here.
Could it well be that a Minority is actually leading the Majority by example of self-discovery and self-introspection? As Stu Fenton & al. proposed in Berlin in 2018: “Surely gay culture is not just something depressing? It’s also about self-discovery, adventure, relating to a group of peers, have meaningful relations, reaching out to others in order to lift each other up and having all sorts of primal instincts satisfied.”

How does the alcoholic or addicted individual effect the family and community? In what way do they equally become sick? What does intervention, treatment and aftercare look like for the family and how does this effect the individual with addiction?
This masterclass will examine the origins of addiction throughout a family’s history and find new ways to transform those old stories of shame and blame to survival and resilience. Participants will be provided a number of key points aimed at enhancing professional knowledge and performance. We will examine alternative ways to think beyond individual treatment, which include the entire family not only though current Family Therapy models, but by examining the stories and pain of past generations. This cutting-edge thinking regarding family work can transform the lives of generations yet to come who may escape the prison of addiction due to our ability to stand with our clients in their multigenerational story of trauma and adaptation. In conclusion, participants will examine how family therapy techniques including examining generations of Transgenerational Grief provide an opportunity for feelings that have been previously denied and lost in the family story can be named, explored, reframed and viewed as strength and hope.

Diagnostic approaches applied in psychiatry are often criticized and deemed unsatisfactory because of their relative lack of reliability and validity. One reason for this complexity lies in the purely symptomatic approach to diagnosis. This approach also results in misdiagnosis, difficulties and high risk of aberrant therapeutic choices. The problem is also the source of great difficulty in differentiating the normal from the pathological in situations of emotional and psychological distress that should not be the subject of a psychiatric diagnosis.

Childhood sexual abuse (CSA) has seemed at the forefront of many news items recently and increasingly out there in the public domain. The statistics quoted in the UK are 1 in 4 women and 1 in 6 men are survivors, higher in other countries such as the USA. Indeed, most of our addiction clients tend to present with underlying trauma, many as a result of CSA. So as clinicians and treatment providers how do we deal with this epidemic in terms of numbers and the resultant increased disclosures and presentations?
iCAAD London 2019 - Chip Somers - REHAB – DEAD OR ALIVE?iCAADEvents
In this presentation Chip will talk about the parlous state of rehab. How it is possible that we have gotten to the point where we have all these rehabs but you can only really get in to them if you have money? How have we let local councils take over the medical care of addicts and alcoholics? How have we tolerated a system so clearly broken to continue?
Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

3. 1. ABSENT PRESENCE vs PRESENT PRESENCE
2. HEALTHY DEVICE MANAGEMENT
3. PRACTICING RESPONSIBLE PROFESSIONAL
DEVICE USE, UTILIZATION, & GOOD DIGITAL
CITIZENSHIP
TOPIC QUESTIONS FOR THE FINAL EXAM:
4. And now…
The most DREADED words ever spoken in the history of mankind…
6. 1. UK adults spend an average of 8 hours 41 minutes a day on screens; children 6.5; Most for
both demographics is spent multi-tasking, which, (according to University College
London), has been proven a #FAIL
2. “Silver Swipers” (55-75) are the fastest growing UK adopters of smartphones
3. The average UK user checks their smartphone 150 times per day; 1/3 admit they regularly
use their devices while with friends, watching television, eating, and while working or
with their romantic partner
4. 25% of UK adults admit sending text or instant messages to friends or family while in the
same room
5. 66% of UK adults say they “hate” how much time they spend on their phone; 27% of
children say their parents have “double standards” about technology
6. 1 in 3 UK adults check their messages in the middle of the night, and admit their overuse
is causing rows with their partners
7. 10% of UK smartphone owners admit reaching for their phone as soon as they wake; 1/3
within 5 minutes; 75% say it’s the last thing they do before sleep
SOME SUPER FUN FACTS!!!
8. And Furthermore…
A correlation exists between excessive Internet use, ADHD, depression, social
phobia, & hostility, with a pattern reminiscent of correlates with alcohol & drug
addiction
Excessive, long-term exposure to electronic environments is reconfiguring young
people's neural networks and possibly diminishing their ability to develop empathy,
interpersonal relationships, and nonverbal communication skills
70% of those struggling with Device Management also struggle with (or have a
history of) other addictions & emotional dysregulation such as depression, mood
disorders, social disorders, anxiety disorders, relationship problems, & sexuality-
based disorders
Technology, device, and Internet use, like alcohol and other drugs, are reinforcing,
stimulating, and rewarding-which potentially only increases the desire to “use”

ONE MORE TIME…
56. AND THEN OF COURSE, THERE ARE…
THE GAMERS!
Single Player games
MMORPG's: Massively multi-player online role playing games (began with
Dungeons & Dragons; now it’s all about WOW, COD, LOL, etc.)
MUD's: Multi-use domain games; self-constructed
Gamers can create a completely self-constructed persona & test/play out
identities and roles they are unable to manifest in real life.
Game designers PURPOSELY install rewards systems & other attractions
while prolong intended playing time & can increase emotional activation
Like a drug addict on a bad run, a gaming addict often will neglect personal
health, hygiene, any/all responsibilities, sleeping, eating, work, school, & even
their own children when lost in a gaming “blackout.”
57. COMMON SENSE STRATEGIES TO AVOID PROBLEMS
1. Establishaspecific routine/timeschedule forvideo game play

58. CYBERBULLYING / CYBERAGGRESSION
DEFINITION: “Behavior aimed at harming another person using
electronic communications, & perceived by the target as aversive”
10%-40% of adolescents reported having been the victims of cyberbullying
23% of youth reported being the victim of ANY type of bullying (physical,
verbal, emotional, and/or cyberbullying)
32.7% of youth reported that the cyberbullying came from someone
theyTHOUGHT was their friend; 27.7% said it was from someone in their
school

60. CYBERVICTIMS ARE LIKELY TO HAVE SIGNIFICANT
MENTAL HEALTH & SOCIAL PROBLEMS
and also that…
CYBERAGGRESSION HURTS DIFFERENTLY & MORE DEEPLY
THAN FACE-TO-FACE BULLYING

PREVENTATIVE MEASURES, & HELP,VISIT:
www.Cyberbully411.com
EXPERTS BELIEVE THAT…
(I personally believe it is because whether true or not, the assumption is
that “everyone” sees it online, as opposed to F2F bullying which is usually
more contained)
61. CYBERPORNOGRAPHY
Potential negative effects include:
• Decreased sensitivity towards women (or men)
• Distorted & unhealthy views about sexuality
• Increased risk of developing a negative body image
• Increased risk of developing sexually compulsive behaviors
• Increased risk for sexual addiction and/or need for progressive stimulation
• Loss of intimacy for couples
• Sexual dysfunction when in a “face-to-face” sexual or intimate situation
• Extremely premature exposure to sexuality
• When involved “Sexting,” ALL the above, along with explicit photos minors
(or adults) share potentially being shared, sold, or posted on illegal
websites without their knowledge
63. Create a simple set of rules to limit the negative
(and amplify the positive) impacts of how to use your device(s):
1. Stop checking your phone in your car (and certainly not while driving!)
2. Stop checking your device during TV commercials
3. Keep your phone across the room (or in a different room/space) when not using it
4. Turn off ALL notifications; Unsubscribe from, block, & delete useless & addictive apps
5. “Opt out” of email updates. They can wait. Really, they can.
6. Chose a clear, realistic, & healthy end point for each random "surfing" session; set timers
7. Stop checking your phone while in line. Talk to the folks on either side of you, or the poor
employee working the register, instead. See what happens and how much better you feel
8. Create a framework for your day with end buffers. For example, don't make your phone
the first thing you reach for in the morning and the last thing at night. Remember when
that connection used to be with the person you loved or your close friends?
9. Put your phone away after posting something on social media. Don't stress about how
many "likes" in what amount of time, it received. Or is that why you posted it?
10. Stop repeating the cycle of checking things. Check your email, social media, banking,
whatever platforms once and then put the device away
11. Do not leave your phone by your bed at night
12. When with others, put the phone away and TURN IT OFF
13. Do not put your phone on any table while eating, meeting, greeting
14. Recognize that it is a work in progress
15. Model the change you want to see in the world
