Ambulatory anesthesia copy
This document discusses ambulatory anesthesia and day-care surgery. It provides a brief history of ambulatory anesthesia, noting key developments from 1903 to present day. It describes the objectives and techniques of anesthesia for day-care surgery, including premedication, induction agents, maintenance techniques, regional versus general anesthesia, advantages and disadvantages, selection criteria for patients, and discharge criteria. The success of day-care surgery depends on appropriate patient selection, facility availability, and type of surgical procedure.
Ms. Tate Case Summary
Ms. Tate, a patient at Glenbridge Nursing Home, is seen in her wheelchair after her shower. She struggles to find words at times and seems fearful about not being able to visit her niece. Her medications were recently adjusted which led to increased confusion and yelling. Increasing her gabapentin dosage helped significantly improve her symptoms. She has also recovered from a possible respiratory or urinary infection treated with IV fluids and antibiotics. On examination, her lungs are clear and heart rhythm is normal.
Management of tmd symptoms with photobiomodulation therapy
Conservative approaches, such as soft diets, anti-inflammatory drugs and photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) or low-level laser therapy (LLLT), have been used to manage TMD.
Lasers have proven to be successful in clinical settings and treatments of soft tissues, musculoskeletal pain, bone regeneration, dentinal hypersensitivity, and provide reduction in symptoms and improved function.
The mechanism of action in PBMT is via absorption of light, with deeply penetrating wavelengths ranging from 630 nm to 1300 nm, to stimulate tissues with direct irradiation to achieve analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects.
The output energy in PBMT does not affect skin temperature and is classified as a soft laser, which increases lymphatic flow, reduces edema and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and cyclooxygenase (COX) levels.
A systematic review for pain management reported placebo vs LLLT for practical and clinically relevant parameters using 700nm to 1200nm.

This document discusses pediatric procedural sedation and analgesia (PSA). It defines sedation as a reduction in awareness while analgesia is a reduction in pain perception. PSA involves using sedatives, analgesics, and dissociative agents to relieve anxiety and pain from medical procedures. The targeted depth of sedation and choice of agents depends on factors like the procedure, pain level, and patient characteristics. Common medication categories used include sedatives, analgesics, dissociative medications, inhalation medications, and reversal agents. Adverse events and contraindications are discussed for each category.
Non pharmaceutical intervention for ear infection [compatibility mode]
Non pharmaceutical intervention for ear infection [compatibility mode]Ellen Kamhi, PhD, RN, AHG, AHN-BC
Conventional Medicine Suggests that Physicians Watch and Wait rather than use antibiotics for mild ear infections. Rather than do that, it makes more sense to use natural therapies WHILE you are waiting. They often help resolve the issue so more aggressive pharmaceutical agents and ear tubes can be avoided.SnooZeal Award Write Up
SnooZeal is a new anti-snoring product that uses electrical stimulation of the tongue muscles to treat sleep apnea. It is designed to be used during waking hours through a mouthpiece connected to a control unit. Clinical trials showed it was effective in treating sleep apnea within 6 weeks by reversing the over-relaxation of the tongue muscles. As an over-the-counter device, SnooZeal provides a convenient and accessible treatment option for sleep apnea patients in Europe.

Acoustic Neuromas
Being invited to Florence, Italy to address an international medical meeting about our work for
head and neck tumors was a great honor. The symposium – organized under the auspices of
the President of Italy was held in a once-ancient hospital that is now a museum in the historic
city of Tuscany.
General anaesthesia
This document provides information on general anesthesia, local anesthesia, and conscious sedation including:
- The key differences between general anesthesia, local anesthesia, and conscious sedation.
- The American Society of Anesthesiologists patient physical status classification system.
- The stages of general anesthesia according to Guedel and Gillespie.
- Common routes of administration for anesthesia including intravenous, inhalation, intramuscular, and oral.
- Common drugs used for intravenous and inhalation anesthesia like propofol, sevoflurane, and ketamine.
- Guidelines for preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative care when providing general anesthesia.
STUDY_ON_MIDAZOLAM_INTRANASAL_ADMINISTRATION_KNOWLEDGE_BY_PATIENT’S (3).pptx
The document summarizes a study on the knowledge of caregivers about midazolam intranasal administration for patients with seizures. Some key findings:
- 92% of caregivers demonstrated appropriate knowledge of the method of administering midazolam nasal spray.
- 84% of patients carried midazolam with them when traveling.
- 91% of patients felt good after midazolam administration with few reporting side effects like throat irritation.
- 67% of patients cooperated during midazolam administration.
- Midazolam nasal spray was found to be cost-effective for 85% of patients.
The study assessed caregiver knowledge and practices around midazolam nasal spray use and found
A comparative assessment of intranasal and oral
Oral midazolam and ketamine were compared for procedural sedation in pediatric dental patients. Thirty children received either 0.5mg/kg oral midazolam or 5mg/kg oral ketamine along with nitrous oxide. Psychological parameters were evaluated during treatment. Both regimens effectively reduced anxiety. No significant differences were found in physiological measures between groups. However, the midazolam group showed marginally better psychomotor effects. The study concluded that oral midazolam and ketamine with nitrous oxide provide safe and effective sedation for pediatric dental procedures when administered within the studied dosages.
Asthma adjuncts
This document outlines the expected learning objectives and key points around clinical skills related to assessing lung function using peak expiratory flow readings. It describes how to use a peak flow meter to measure lung function, interpret readings, and monitor patients. It also explains how to demonstrate the proper use of a metered dose inhaler and spacer device to patients starting inhaled treatments.
Pain Relief In Labour1
This document discusses various methods for managing pain during labor, including epidural analgesia, combined spinal epidural analgesia, and intravenous PCA remifentanil. Epidural analgesia is considered the gold standard, but other options are discussed for cases where epidural is contraindicated. Studies on remifentanil PCA found it provided effective pain relief with minimal side effects to mothers and neonates when used in low doses with close monitoring. While more research is still needed, intravenous PCA remifentanil may be a suitable alternative for labor analgesia in some cases where epidural is not possible.
Post Burn Contracture Neck
The patient has received an excessive dose of ketamine for her body weight. Ketamine has a long duration of action and she is still experiencing its effects 12 hours later when she should have recovered much sooner. A lower and more appropriate dose of ketamine should have been used.
Niv and sedation dr vijay agrawal [autosaved]
This document provides a historical overview of the development of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) and the use of sedation during NIV. It discusses early studies from the 1980s that pioneered the use of NIV using face masks. Between 2007-2012, several studies began exploring the use of sedation during NIV in a protocolized manner and comparing different sedative agents. However, sedation practices for NIV remained heterogeneous. The document concludes that while limited data suggests sedation during NIV can be safe and feasible, more widespread use should await results from randomized clinical trials.
Propofol VS Midazolam - Randomized Controlled Trial In Prosedural Sedation
Research carried out In the Emergency Department USM and presented at International Conference in EM in San Francisco April 2008
American Journal of Anesthesia & Clinical Research
Background: This study compared the properties of propofol bolus for induction of general anaesthesia between proprietary and 3 generic formulations, to assess if solvent differences had clinically relevant consequences on effi cacy or side effects. Many studies have investigated different formulations of
propofol for side effects, in this study we also focused on effi cacy of different formulations for induction of general anesthesia.
anaesthesiaforivf-171213035409.pptx
This document discusses anesthesia considerations for in vitro fertilization (IVF). It outlines the IVF process and notes that oocyte retrieval is a stressful, painful component. The role of the anesthesiologist is to provide judicious perioperative management and pain relief while properly counseling patients to reduce anxiety. Various patient comorbidities and medications must be considered. Different anesthesia techniques are described including monitored anesthesia care, general anesthesia using short-acting drugs, regional techniques, and total intravenous anesthesia. The conclusion emphasizes providing the shortest anesthesia duration possible while choosing the optimal modality based on each patient's needs and comorbidities.
Bells palsy
This document discusses recent advances in the management of Bell's palsy. It begins with the anatomy of the facial nerve and describes its intracrannial and extracranial course. It then discusses Bell's palsy itself, including causes, clinical features, prognosis, and treatment options. The mainstay treatments are corticosteroids, antiviral drugs like acyclovir, and sometimes combined steroid and antiviral therapy. Surgery is generally not indicated unless there is not complete recovery with medical treatment. Overall advances include better understanding of Bell's palsy etiology and more evidence supporting combined steroid and antiviral therapy.
TMJ ankylosis
This document summarizes the anesthetic management of a 28-year-old male patient presenting for coronoidotomy of the temporomandibular joint who was anticipated to have a difficult airway. Due to restricted mouth opening and limited jaw movement from a previous surgery, fiberoptic intubation while awake was chosen. Various airway assessments were performed and difficult airway cart prepared. Fiberoptic intubation was successful with local anesthesia. General anesthesia was maintained uneventfully and the patient was extubated at the end of the 2-hour surgery. Recommendations for difficult airway management include considering awake fiberoptic intubation and having alternative airway plans.
current practice of premedications
The document discusses premedication practices in anesthesia. It notes that while premedication was originally used to counter side effects of early anesthetics like ether, the focus is now on improving patient wellbeing and satisfaction. Benefits of premedication include reducing anxiety, nausea, acidity and autonomic responses. Key drugs discussed are benzodiazepines like midazolam and antiemetics. Optimal timing, safety considerations and special populations like pediatrics are also reviewed.
General anesthetics
General anesthesia involves inducing a state of unconsciousness through administration of anesthetic drugs. It suppresses functions like breathing, circulation, and swallowing, requiring close monitoring. Common classes of general anesthetics include inhalational gases like nitrous oxide and volatile liquids, as well as intravenous drugs. Inhalational anesthetics act in the brain by enhancing GABA activity, while intravenous drugs like propofol and etomidate also act through GABA or by blocking NMDA receptors. Selection of anesthetic drugs is based on the procedure and patient characteristics to safely induce, maintain, and recover from anesthesia.
Analgesics and anestheia
This topic includes Introduction for analgesia and anesthesia used in obstetrics, maternal risk factors for anesthesia, anatomical and physiological considerations, analgesia during labour and delivery, sedatives and analgesia, opioid analgesics, combination of narcotics and antiemetics, inhalation methods, commonly used local anesthesia in obstetrics, spinal anesthesia, infiltration anesthesia, patient controlled anesthesia, psychoprophylaxis, general anesthesia for cesarean section, complication of general anesthesia and its management.
analgesicsandanestheia-201123103344 (1).pdf
This document discusses various methods of pain relief during labor and delivery. It describes the nerve supply of the genital tract and various anesthetic options including opioid analgesics like pethidine and meperidine, benzodiazepines, inhalation methods using nitrous oxide and oxygen, and regional anesthetic techniques like continuous lumbar epidural blocks, paracervical nerve blocks, and pudendal nerve blocks. Risk factors for complications and considerations for each method are also outlined.
Short spreecast pp for january 27, 2014
This document discusses the importance of proper breathing and airway health. It makes three key points:
1. Dentists' primary responsibility is to examine patients' airways and help patients become nasal breathers. A patient's teeth are secondary to airway health.
2. Treating dental issues without addressing airway problems is ineffective. Modern sleep medicine only addresses end-stage airway disease rather than preventing issues.
3. Public awareness of the link between breathing, airway health, and overall wellness is needed to drive changes in how the medical and dental fields address these issues.
Otalgia
Earache, also known as otalgia, refers to pain or discomfort in the ear and can be caused by injuries, infections, inflammation, or referred pain from other areas like the teeth or jaw. Symptoms may include ear pain, fever, discharge from the ear, dizziness, or nausea. Diagnosis involves examining the external ear canal and eardrum via otoscopy. Treatment depends on the underlying cause but may include over-the-counter pain medications, antibiotics, ear irrigation, or surgeries like myringoplasty to repair a perforated eardrum. Nursing care focuses on rest, hygiene, avoiding activities that cause pressure on the ears, and monitoring for complications after any surgical procedures

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. Public Health Lecture 4 Social Sciences and Public Health

What are the different types of Dental implants.
Are you looking for a long-lasting solution to your missing tooth?
Dental implants are the most common type of method for replacing the missing tooth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed in the jawbone. In layman’s terms, a dental implant is similar to the natural root of the tooth. It offers a stable foundation for the artificial tooth giving it the look, feel, and function similar to the natural tooth.
PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s Perspective
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.
