Florence nightingale’s environment theoryShrooti Shah
The foundation of Nightingale’s theory is the environment- all the external conditions and forces that influence the life and development of an organism.
According to her, external influences and conditions can prevent, suppress, or contribute to disease or death.
Her goal was to help the patient retain his own vitality by meeting his basic needs through control of the environment.

NURSING PROCESS AND CRITHICAL THINKING
Purposes of nursing process
To identify a client’s health status and actual or potential health care problems or needs.
To establish plans to meet the identified needs.
To deliver specific nursing interventions to meet those needs
Assessment is the first step of nursing process.
Assessing is the systematic and continuous collection, organization, validation and documentation of data.
This includes data about person’s physical and psychological status or study of the patient as a whole to identify his strengths and weakness and his needs and problems
Nursing assessment does not focus upon disease as do medical assessment. It is based on a board scientific knowledge, keen observation and purposeful listening.
nursing process is the base or heart of complete nursing and nursing process gives the framework for the nurses in giving care to the patient the knowledge of nursing process is must to become a licensed nurse or to practice nursing this ppt give nurses a brief idea what all thing are including in nursing process and to determine efficiency, knowledge, skills and attitude of personnel and can make best use of their skills into clinical practice.

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

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
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.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

WE ALWAYS PRACTICE
ASSESSMENT IN OUR DAILY
LIVING
4. WHAT CAN YOU SAY ABOUT
THESE PICTURES? WHAT
INFERENCE CAN YOU MAKE?
5. Assessment
• the collection of data about an individual’s
health state
• first and most critical phase of the nursing
process
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
6. Assessment
• ongoing and continuous throughout all the
phases of the nursing process
• is systematic and continuous collection,
validation and communication of client data as
compared to what is standard/norm
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
7. Purpose:
To establish a data base (all the information about
the client) to determine the client’s overall level of
functioning in order to make a professional clinical
judgment
To supplement, confirm, or question data obtained
in the nursing history
To obtain data that will help the nurse establish
nursing diagnoses and plan patient care
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
8. To evaluate the appropriateness of the nursing
interventions in resolving the patient's identified
pathophysiology problems
collect data of patient’s health status, to identify
deviations from normal, to discover the patient’s
strengths and coping resources, to point actual
problems, and factors that place the patient at risk
for health problems
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
9. • Wholistic data collection.
• Nurse collects physiologic, psychological,
sociocultural, developmental, and spiritual data
about the client
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
10. nurse focuses on how client’s health status
affects his activities of daily living (ADL) and
how the client’s ADL affect is health
Ex: client with asthma
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
11. assess how client interact within their family,
cultures, and community and how the client’s
health status affects the family and community
Ex: client with DM who has amputation; single
parent mother of a 6 year-old child
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
12. • Data from nursing assessment can be
classified as subjective and objective.
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
13. Data include:
nursing health history
physical assessment
the physician’s history & physical
examination
results of laboratory & diagnostic tests
material from other health personnel
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
15. Assessment
– The first step in determining the health status of the
client
– Because the entire plan of care is based on the data
collected during this phase, you need to make every
effort to ensure that your information is correct,
complete, and organized in a way that helps you
begin to get a sense of patterns of health or illness.
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
19. Initial comprehensive assessment
• Involves collection of subjective data about the
– client’s perception of his/her health of all body parts or
systems,
– past health history,
– family history, and
– lifestyle and health practices (which includes information
related to the client’s overall function) as well as objective
data gathered during a step-by-step physical examination
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
20. Initial comprehensive assessment
When performed?
• On the initial contact with the client
• where: hospital, community, clinic or home
setting
• purpose: to have a baseline comprehensive data
about the client
• Ex: nursing admission assessment
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
22. Ongoing or partial assessment
• consists of data collection that occurs after the
comprehensive database is established
• consists of mini-overview of the client’s body
systems and holistic health patterns as a follow-
up on his health status
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
23. Ongoing or partial assessment
• When performed?
• usually performed whenever the nurse or
another health care professional has an
encounter with the client
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
24. Ongoing or partial assessment
• purposes:
• Any problems that were initially detected in the
client’s body system or holistic health patterns
are reassessed in less depth to determine any
major changes (deterioration or improvement)
from the baseline data.
• Brief reassessment of the client’s normal body
system or wholistic health patterns is performed
to detect new problems
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
25. Focused or problem-oriented assessment
• consists of a thorough assessment of a particular
health problem and does not cover areas not
related to the problem
• purpose: to have a thorough assessment on the
special health concern of the client identified in
an earlier assessment
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
26. Focused or problem-oriented assessment
• When performed?
• performed when a comprehensive database
exists for a client and he/she comes to the
health care agency with a special health concern
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
27. Emergency assessment
• a very rapid assessment performed in a life-
threatening situations
• rapid assessment done during any
physiologic/physiologic crisis of the client to
identify life threatening problems
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
28. Emergency assessment
• purpose: to determine the status of the client’s
life-sustaining physical functions
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
29. Time-lapsed assessment
• reassessment of client’s functional health pattern
done several months after initial assessment to
compare the client’s current status to baseline
data previously obtained.
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN

• Secondary source:
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
32. Sources of Data
• Primary source:
– data directly gathered from the client using
interview and physical examination.
Maria Carmela L. Domocmat, RN, MSN
33. Sources of Data
• Secondary source:
– data gathered from client’s family members,
significant others, client’s medical
records/chart, other members of health team,
and related care literature/journals.
