The preoperative period involves preparing the patient for surgery, which includes gathering medical information, examining the patient, conducting tests, treating any issues, and ensuring informed consent is obtained. The goal is to optimize the patient's condition and minimize risks. Examinations evaluate general health as well as any surgery-specific issues. Tests are performed to check organ function and rule out issues. Patients are counseled on the procedure and have an opportunity to ask questions. Condition-specific preparations may also be required in the preoperative period.
Preanesthetic evaluation of patients in oral and maxillofacial surgeryPunam Nagargoje
The word is derived from the Greek words an, which means “without” and aithesia which means “feeling”
The use of medical anesthesia was first reported in 1846
The development of anesthesia has made today’s modern surgical techniques possible
• Basic Principles of Anesthesia
• “Triad of General Anesthesia”
need for unconsciousness
need for analgesia
need for muscle relaxation and loss of reflexes
• Preoperative Evaluation
• The preanesthetic evaluation has specific objectives including:
- Establishing a doctor-patient relationship,
- Becoming familiar with the surgical illness and
- coexisting medical conditions,
- Anticipating potential complication
Developing a management strategy for perioperative anesthetic care,
- Obtaining informed consent for the anesthetic plan.
The overall goals of the preoperative assessment are to reduce perioperative morbidity and mortality and to allay patient anxiety.

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.

3. Gather and record all relevant information
Optimize patient condition
Choose surgery that offers minimal risk and
maximum benefit
Anticipate and plan for adverse events
Inform everyone concerned.
5. Listen: What is the problem? (Open questions)
Clarify: What does the patient expect?
(Closed questions)
Fitness: Comorbidities (Fixed questions)
6. General: + findings even if not related to the
proposed procedure should be explored
Surgery related: Type and site of surgery,
complications which have occurred due to
underlying pathology
Systemic: Comorbidities (presence of one or more
additional disease or disorders) and their severity
Specific: For example, suitability for
positioning during surgery.
7. To check fitness for anesthesia & surgery.
GPE
Systemic:
- CVS
- CNS
- GIT
- Respiratory system
8. Its aim: to confirm previous findings &
diagnosis, to determine severity & to gauge
extent.
E.g. in inguinal hernia confirm it’s inguinal
not femoral, reducible or not & whether
there are any signs of bowel obstruction.
10. Its aim: to evaluates the presence & severity of other
problems.
E.g. Diabetic patient undergoing surgery need
careful examination for sepsis , neuropathy or
microvascular disease
11. Every unit and ward has its own protocol.
The tests which normally performed on most
patient coming to surgery:
* Full Blood Count
* Basic Biochemistry
* Chest Radiography
12. • Hematology : to exclude anemia, for platelets
count & to assess the amount of blood may be
needed during or after operation.
• Urea, Creatinine & Electrolytes: state of
dehydration & renal insufficiency.
• Liver Function Tests: Alb & Protein guide to
nutritional status & shows any clotting problems.
13. ECG : It’s recommended in all patient >65years,
pt. with blood loss & cardiovascular/pulmonary
problems.
Urinalysis: used for determination of renal
function, inflammation, infection & metabolic
disorders.
Pregnancy Test: ( B- HCG )-Human chronic
gonadotropin
HBsAg & HIV testing.
RBS & HbA1c : Diabetes
Blood gas analysis:
14. Provide all information necessary for the
patient to make an informed decision
Use common language
Discuss the options rather than telling the
patient what will be done
Give the patient time to think things over
Encourage to discuss things – trusted person
Suggest to write down a list of points that to
be discussed

25. As the date of the surgical procedure approaches, patients may well
start to become increasingly anxious.
This can be due to fear of pain both during and after the surgery, fear
of losing control, fear that something may go wrong and fear of the
needle that will be used to give the anaesthetic injection.
Many people do not want to admit their fears to friends and family
because they are worried about looking weak.
However, we can talk through your fears honestly and openly with us
and you will be able to receive expert advice on how to fight your fears
and provide you with a full psychological assessment to make sure
that you are mentally fit to go into surgery.
