This document discusses the physiological effects of high altitude and strenuous activity on the respiratory and circulatory systems. It explains that at altitude, lung ventilation and maximum oxygen uptake increase due to improvements in cardiac output, red blood cell count, and muscle oxygen extraction. It also describes acute mountain sickness symptoms and more severe conditions like high altitude cerebral edema and pulmonary edema. Treatments focus on descending to lower altitudes, supplemental oxygen, medications, and fluid intake. The document notes that women may be better adapted to cope with oxygen lack at altitude compared to men.

Body fluid & electrolytes........Dr.Muhammad Anwarul Kabir,FCPS(Medicine)kabirshiplu
Body fluid & electrolyte disturbances are one of the critical but commonest problems in our day to day practices.This presentation helps to make a basic ideas dealing with dyselectrolytaemia
Altitude physiology typically focuses on people above 2500 m; ∼8000 ft. Altitudes above that are sometimes subdivided into very high (3500–5500 m; ∼11,500–18,000 ft) and extreme (>5500 m; >18,000 ft). An estimated 40 million people travel each year to altitudes >2500 m (∼8000 ft),1 and as many or more travel to altitude for leisure and sports, and work in mines, military or border operations, and the like. Altitude medicine considers the clinical disorders associated with acclimatization by the travelers, workers and migrants, and with adaptation by people with lifetimes or populations with millennia of residence (an estimated 83 million people).
With a hurried ascent, many (∼80%) will report a transient headache (high-altitude headache or [HAH]), and some will develop one of three forms of acute high-altitude illness: acute mountain sickness (AMS) and HAH, high-altitude cerebral edema (HACE), and high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). AMS and HAH are annoying and interfere with activity and work, however, HACE and HAPE can be fatal with mortality rates approaching 30%. Among some residents, chronic mountain sickness (CMS) and right ventricular hypertrophy develop over months to years of residence at altitude. Birth weights are generally lower and the rate of small-for-gestational-age babies and congenital heart defects are higher than that in lowland populations.

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. RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
INCREASED LUNG VENTILATION
Aerobic training results in a more efficient and
improved lung ventilation.
Lung ventilation is increased because of increased
tidal volume and respiratory frequency.
4. RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
INCREASED MAXIMUM OXYGEN UPTAKE
Maximum oxygen uptake is improved as a result of aerobic
training – it can be improved between 5 to 30 %.
Improvements are a result of:
- Increases in cardiac output
- Increase number of red blood cells
- Oxygen uptake difference
- Muscle capillarisation
- Greater oxygen extraction by muscles
5. RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
INCREASED ANAEROBIC OR LACTATE
THRESHOLD
Lactate threshold changes as a result of endurance
training.
As a result of improved oxygen delivery & utilization, a
higher lactate threshold (the point where oxygen
supply cannot keep up with oxygen demand) is
developed.
6. RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
Changes during Exercise
-Blood flow/min is increased from 5L/min to about 2530L/min.
-The total amount of oxygen entering the lungs
increases from 250ml/min at rest to about
4000ml/min.
-Carbon dioxide removal increases from 200ml/min to
about 8000ml/min.
7. CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
Heart rate increase
Stroke volume increase
Cardiac output increase
Blood flow-blood are shunted away from major organs
such as kidney, liver, stomach, intestine
Blood pressure increase
The difference in oxygen content of arterial and venous
blood increase
10. RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
Size of lungs increase to facilitate the osmosis of oxygen
and carbon dioxide.
Increase in the vascular network of muscles which
enhances the transfer of gases.
Increase in breathing and heart rate.
Pulse rate and blood pressure increase as our hearts pump
harder to get more oxygen to the cells.
Change in oxygen affinity of blood.
The rate of miscarriages is usually higher at altitudes above
two miles because fetuses receive less oxygen from their
mothers.
11. CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
The circulatory system cannot work as efficiently,
because there is less oxygen and carbon dioxide
Heart rate increase
Dilation of coronary arteries
Cardiac contractility increase
After being at a high altitude for a long time, the body
will adapt.
It will produce more red blood cells so that it can pick
up more oxygen, since less oxygen is carried by each
haemoglobin at high altitudes.

13. ACUTE MOUNTAIN SICKNESS
(AMS)
AMS usually occurs above 8,000 ft. (2,400 m)
It is caused by reduced air pressure and lower oxygen
levels at high altitudes.
The symptoms of AMS are sleeping
difficulty, dizziness, fatigue, headache, loss of
appetite, nausea or vomiting, rapid pulse (heart rate)
and shortness of breath with exertion.
14. TREATMENTS FOR ALTITUDE
SICKNESS (AMS)
Descend to lower altitude or stay at current altitude to
see if his or her body adjusts
Give aspirin or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) for headache
Give oxygen, if available
Avoid narcotics/smoking
Keep the person warm and have him or her rest
Give plenty of liquids (but not alcohol)
15. HIGH ALTITUDE CEREBRAL EDEMA
(HACE)
HACE has occurred from 10,000 ft. and above.
It occurs when AMS is overlooked and thus brain
swelling increases.
In extreme cases, death can result.
The symptoms of HACE are imbalance, severe
headache, vomiting, nausea, and hallucinations.
16. HIGH ALTITUDE PULMONARY
EDEMA (HAPE)
HAPE has occurred from 8,000 ft. and above
It occurs when excessive blood pressure causes fluid to leak
from the blood vessels into the alveoli sacs of the lungs.
The body compensates by increasing heart rate and blood
pressure, thereby forcing more fluid into the lungs.
The fluid in the lungs blocks the oxygen-blood interface.
If altitude is not decreased, the victim drowns because no
oxygen reaches the lung/capillary interface.
The symptoms of HAPE are difficulty in
breathing, gurgling sound in lungs, fever, coughing, and
exhaustion
17. TREATMENTS FOR ALTITUDE
SICKNESS (HACE AND HAPE)
Descend to a lower altitude as soon as possible. Even a
1,000-2,000 feet (305-610 m) descent can dramatically
improve one's symptoms.
Oxygen therapy . If available, the patient can be placed in a
Gamow bag, which is a portable high-pressure bag that
increases oxygen tension and may stabilize the patient.
Use of medications such as:
-Dexamethasone (steroid) that reduces swelling of
the brain.
-Diamox that signals the brain to breathe more by
correcting the imbalance chemical in the blood.
-Nifedipine that decreases the narrowing of the
artery that supplies blood to the lungs and help to
reduce chest tightness.
19. MEN VS WOMEN
Professor Damian Bailey, from the University of
Glamorgan, who will lead the research, believes female
brains are better equipped to deal with a lack of oxygen.
The decrement of maximum aerobic capacity at 4350m was
less in women than in men under similar modes of ascent.
Men are at greater risk of altitude sickness than women, as
men tend to get HAPE more frequently than women
Normal dietary iron intakes are adequate to support
increased hemoglobin synthesis for males at high altitude,
but females exposed to high altitude may benefit from a
dietary iron supplement.
