This document discusses peritonitis and intra-abdominal abscesses. It begins by describing the peritoneum, its layers, and peritoneal cavity. Peritonitis is defined as inflammation of the peritoneum and can be localized or diffuse, acute or chronic. Causes include perforation, infection, or surgery. Symptoms include abdominal pain and fever. Treatment involves antibiotics, source control, and drainage if needed. Intra-abdominal abscesses often develop secondary to inflammation and can be identified using imaging. Larger abscesses require drainage by percutaneous or surgical methods.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

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”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2. PERITONEUM
• Peritoneum is a single layered simple squamous
epithelium of mesodermal origin termed mesothelium.
Which lines the peritoneal cavity of the body .
• The surface area is 1.0 to 1.7 m2 approximately that of
total body surface area.
• The mesothelial layer secretes fluid known as peritoneal
fluid which gives lubricating function to the peritoneum .
• In males , the peritoneal cavity is normally closed
• In females, the peritoneal cavity is opened at fimbrial
entrance of fallopian tubes .
3.
4. • Parts of peritoneum :
1. Parietal peritoneum – it lines the inner surface of the
abdominal wall , under the diaphragm and pelvic wall .
It is loosely attached , can be easily stripped of ,
innervated by somatic nerves so pain sensitive .
2. Visceral peritoneum – it lines the outer surface of the
abdominal viscera , firmly adherent ,cannot be stripped
off , innervated by autonomic nervous system , hence not
pain sensitive .
5.
6. Peritoneal cavity
• It is the potential space between the parietal and visceral
peritoneum .
• Normally it contains 100ml or clear straw colored fluid
secreted by mesothelial cells .
• Spaces in the peritoneal cavity :
• peritoneal cavity being the largest cavity in the body it is
divided into different spaces by the ligaments and
mesenteries.
10. • Intra abdominal spaces are 9 in number they are :
1. Right and left subphrenic
2. Subhepatic
3. Lesser sac
4. Supra mesenteric
5. Infra mesenteric
6. Left and right paracolic gutters
7. Pelvis
12. PERITONITIS
• Peritonitis is the inflammation of the peritoneum and the
peritoneal cavity categorized as localized or diffuse , acute
or chronic .
• Causes of peritonitis :
13. • Primary peritonitis – this occurs due to bacterial , chlamydial,
fungal or mycobacterial infection in the absence of perforation or
inflammation of GI or GU tract .
• Secondary peritonitis –this occurs in settings of GI or GU tract
perforation or inflammation with common causes including acute
appendicitis , colonic diverticulitis and pelvic inflammatory
disease.
• Tertiary peritonitis – it occurs after any abdominal surgeries,
which are usually severe and the patient may go into SIRS or
MODS early, it is defined as recurrent or persistent intra
abdominal infection after an adequate treatment for primary or
secondary peritonitis usually after 48 hrs.
15. Localised peritonitis
• In this peritonitis localized area of peritoneum has become
inflamed .
• If parietal peritoneum is involved , the patient complains of pain
somatic pain in the area affected . Vital signs may be normal ,
but tachycardia and pyrexia are common .
• The characteristic signs are involuntary guarding ( reflex
abdominal wall contraction to reduce further peritoneal
irritation) and rebound tenderness .
• Collectively these signs and symptoms are called as peritonism
and the patient is described as peritonitic.
16. • If the inflammation occurs to the peritoneum under diaphragm, there
is shoulder tip pain ( phrenic pain ).
• If the inflammation occurs in pelvic peritoneum due to inflamed
appendix, salpingitis, abdominal signs may ne limited but there is
deep seated tenderness detected by doing digital rectal or vaginal
examination.
• Diagnosis can be done by doing CT , usg , lab biomarkers.
• Aim of the treatment is to remove the underlying cause.
• During surgery in localized peritonitis , there is inflamed peritoneum
which appears reddened, thickened and has velvety texture. Plaques
of yellow/white fibrin may also be found , which causes the looping of
intestines and mesentery to adhere to the intestines.
17. Diffuse (generalized) peritonitis
• It is a life threatening condition .
• In this not just focal regions , but the whole of the peritoneum of that
region is inflamed.
• It arises due to pressure related perforations of the viscus( obstructed
colon) , when large volumes of blood enter the peritoneal cavity ( ruptured
aortic aneurysm), or due to perforated duodenal ulcer , or anastomotic
leak.
• Patient describes acute or gradual onset pain , it may be localized initially
and then becomes diffuse.
• The patient is gravely ill looking ( Hippocratic facies) , and usually lies
still as possible to minimize the fluid movement within peritoneal cavity.
• The abdominal muscle undergoes reflex contraction and feels , board like
rigidity on palpation.
18. • Generalised ileus occurs and the abdomen becomes over
distended .
• Vitals are deranged , patient in advance cases is hypotensive,
tachycardia and pyrexia present
• At first patient may seem confused , drowsy but if cause not
treated patient will loose consciousness.
• Investigations and treatment must be done rapidly , as the
salvage time available is limited.
• An erect chest x ray is useful to identify subdiaphragmatic gas.
20. clinical features of peritonitis:
• Abdominal pain, worse on movement , coughing and deep
respiration.
• Constitutional upset, anorexia, malaise, fever, lassitude
• Gastrointestinal upset , nausea, vomiting
• Pyrexia may be present or absent
• Raised pulse rate
• Tenderness, guarding , rigidity
• Pain or tenderness in per rectal or per vaginal examination.
• Septic shock ,SIRS, MODS.
21. • MANAGEMENT OF PERITONITIS:
• General care of patient
• Correction of fluid and electrolyte balance
• Insertion of nasogastric tube and urinary catheter
• Broad spectrum antibiotic therapy
• Analgesia
• Vital support system
• Surgical treatment of cause :
• Source control by removal or exclusion of the cause.
• Peritoneal lavage, with drainage.
22. Acute bacterial peritonitis
• It most commonly arises due to perforation of viscus of
the alimentary tract.
• Other routes of infection can include the female genital
tract and exogenous contamination
• Some times may include spontaneous peritonitis with
streptococcal , pneumococcal or haemophilus influenza
23. Non gastrointestinal causes of acute
bacterial peritonitis
• Pelvic infection via the fallopian tubes is most commonly
responsible
• Most commonly affecting organism is chlamydia species
and gonococci.
• These organisms lead to thinning of cervical mucosa and
allow bacteria from vagina to pass into the uterus and
oviducts, causing infection and inflammation.
24. Biliary peritonitis
• It is most commonly seen after cholecystectomy and arises from
slippage of clip off from the cystic duct , drainage of bile from
accessory cystic duct or perforation of the common bile or hepatic
duct.
• It can also arise after hepatectomy or duodenal surgery, blunt or
penetrating hepatobiliary or duodenal trauma.
• In severe contamination the patient will be extremely unwell and
urgent intervention required.
• Localised collections are treated by percutaneous insertion of drain
followed by ERCP to identify the source of bile leak. ERCP enables
placement of stent across source of leak .
• If there is diffuse or high volume contamination, surgical exploration
with aim being lavage and drainage.
25. Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis
• It is some times called as primary bacterial peritonitis.
• It is an acute bacterial infection of ascitic fluid , it is rare except in
patient’s with cirrhosis.
• Clinical features as of peritonitis with worsening of liver , renal
function , hepatic encephalopathy and GI bleed.
• Diagnosis is made by paracentesis of ascitic fluid: in which neutrophil
count of ascitic fluid >250/mm. culture of ascitic fluid is negative . If
culture positive most common pathogens include gram negative
bacteria usually E.Coli, and gram positive cocci ( streptococci and
enterococci)
• Treatment of SBP should be initiated immediately after diagnosis, with
empirical treatment. Choice of antibiotic is third generation
cephalosporins, cefotaxime and alternatively quinolones such as
ciprofloxacin can be used.
26. Primary pneumococcal peritonitis
• The incidence is very low and now its rare
• It may complicate the nephrotic syndrome and cirrhosis in the
children , may also affect the normal healthy children .
• In girls the route of infection is via the vagina and fallopian
tubes , whereas blood borne secondary to respiratory or middle
ear disease is also possible.
• It is usually sudden onset with pain in the lower abdomen ,
raise of temperature with frequent vomitings.
• After 24 -48 hrs profuse diarrhea s the characteristic feature.,
associated with increased frequency of micturition.
27. • After starting antibiotics , we need to correct the
electrolyte imbalance, dehydration , early surgery is
required.
• Laparotomy or laparoscopy may be useful .
28. Tuberculous peritonitis
• Intraabdominal tuberculosis is more common in the resource
poor countries , however its incidence is increasing even in the
resource rich countries due to migration and
immunosuppression.
• Mycobacterium avium intracellulare is more prevalent worldwide
with widespread increase in HIV co infection. .
• TB can spread to the peritoneum through gastrointestinal tract
via the mesenteric lymph nodes or through the blood , from
pulmonary TB, and the fallopian tubes
29. • Clinical features:
• Acute and chronic forms
• Abdominal pain , sweats , malaise, and weight loss are
frequent
• Ascites common, may be loculated, abdominal distension.
• Caseating peritoneal nodules are seen , they distinguish
from metastatic carcinoma and fat necrosis of
pancreatitis.
30. • Diagnosis:
• Abdominal ultrasonography, CT abdomen
• Ascitic fluid is typically straw coloured exudate with protein >25-
30g/l, with white cells >500/ml, lymphocytes >40%
• Laparoscopy and peritoneal biopsy can be done.
• Gene Xpert MTB/RIF assay and interferon gamma release assay is
diagnostic.
• Management:
• Supportive (nutrition, and hydration)
• With systemic anti TB therapy
• Surgery may be required for specific complication such as intestinal
obstruction
31. Familial mediterranean fever
• Also known as familial paroxysmal polyserositis, autosomal
recessive inherited inherited autoinflammatory syndrome.
• Associated with mutations in MEFV gene found in Arab,
Armenian and Jewish people
• It is characterized by abdominal pain , tenderness mild
pyrexia.
• Duration of attack is 24 hrs with complete remission but
exacerbation in regular interval
• Peritoneum is inflamed in the splenic and gall bladder vicinity
, and the treatment is colchicine during attack.
32. INTRAABDOMINAL /INTRA
PERITONEAL ABSCESS
• Intraperitoneal abscess is the collection of pus in the
peritoneal cavity, it normally arises secondary to another
pathology.
• Inflammation of any viscus , if unresolved will lead to
hypersecretion of peritoneal fluid, which later progresses
to frank pus.
• Hence abscess formation commonly accompanies
inflammation of abdominal viscus and based on location
of organs.
33. • Site of abscess formation :
Appendicitis- pelvic abscess
Infections of female genital organs- pelvic abscess
Diverticulitis- left paracolic and pelvic abscess
Complications of gall bladder disease- sub hepatic and right sub
phrenic abscess
Pancreatitis may result in lesser sac abscess
Inadequately drained peritonitis , anastomotic leak and internal
fistula causes intra loop abscess.
34. • Clinical features of an abdominal / pelvic abscess:
• Symptoms:
Malaise , lethargy, failure to recover from surgery as expected
Anorexia and weight loss
Sweats, rigors
Abdominal / pelvic pain.
Symptoms from local irritation , shoulder tip / hiccoughs(
subphrenic), diarrhoea and mucus ( pelvic), nausea and vomiting (
any upper abdominal).
• Signs:
Increased temperature and pulse, swinging pyrexia
Localised abdominal tenderness, mass formation.
35. • Investigations :
Plain x-ray erect abdomen- elevation of hemidiaphragm , air
fluid levels , soft tissue masses, obliteration of psoas
shadow.
Ultrasound of abdomen
CT scan of abdomen and pelvis is the investigation of choice.
36. • Treatment
• Adequate fluid and electrolyte management ,resuscitation and
support
• Any abscess less than 5 cm in diameter , normally resolves
with intravenous antibiotics .
• As the antibiotics take effect , there is decrease in the fever
spikes , monitoring of CRP levels should be done serially to
see the disease progression .
• Any abscess greater than 5cm in diameter requires
percutaneous aspiration /drainage or surgical intervention
37. • Prerequisites of percutaneous drainage :
Anatomically safe route
Done in well defined unilocular abscess cavity
Needs surgical and radiological evaluation
Surgical backup if technical failure
• Complications with percutaneous drainage :
Enterocutaneous fistula formation,
Bacteraemia , sepsis
Vascular injury
Enteric puncture
38.
39. • Surgical drainage :
Done if failure of percutaneous drainage
Diffuse infection
Content of the abscess is too thick
Access is impossible
• Surgical approach , it can done can be done by laparoscopically or
open approach
• Bowel may be matted and difficult to separate to reach the abscess.
all the regions of peritoneal cavity should be accessed for drainage of
any residual collections.
• Entire small intestines along with the mesentery should be exposed
to ensure that there are no residual interloop abscess.
