The document discusses mental health issues among transgender communities in India. It notes that transgender individuals frequently experience depression, deliberate self-harm, suicide attempts, substance abuse, anxiety disorders, and adjustment disorders due to stigma, discrimination, family rejection, lack of support, and pressures to beg or engage in sex work. Access to appropriate medical care including counseling, hormone therapy, and gender-affirming surgeries is also discussed. Close coordination between mental health and other medical services is important for optimal transgender healthcare.
1. Major causes of external hemorrhage include penetrating trauma from high-velocity weapons, stab wounds, and blunt trauma, especially in young males.
2. External hemorrhage is classified based on the degree of blood loss and physiological symptoms, ranging from mild with minimal changes to severe with more than 40% blood loss and marked physiological depression.
3. Initial assessment of external hemorrhage focuses on recognizing and reversing life-threatening injuries, preventing ongoing blood loss, and restoring intravascular volume. Direct pressure, tourniquets, and hemostatic agents can control bleeding while intravenous fluids, blood products, and rapid mobilization of resources aim to resuscitate the patient.
Cognitive Behavioural & Relapse Prevention Strategies - University LimerickTim Bingham
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) aims to reduce psychological distress and maladaptive behaviour by altering cognitive processes. It focuses on the relationship between cognitions, affect, and behaviour. CBT techniques teach clients to identify and change dysfunctional thoughts and beliefs, and develop more adaptive cognitive and behavioural skills. Relapse prevention (RP) applies CBT to help clients maintain abstinence by preventing initial lapses and preventing lapses from becoming full relapses. Key CBT concepts include functional analysis to understand high-risk situations for drug use, coping strategies to manage cravings, and increasing time spent in low-risk situations that don't trigger drug use. The clinician plays an active role in teaching CBT skills and
Reminiscence therapy involves encouraging patients, especially older adults, to discuss positive past experiences and memories in order to improve self-esteem, reduce depression, and increase well-being. There are different types including individual and group sessions, and it involves discussing topics like childhood, family, careers, and important life events from the past. Reminiscence therapy has benefits like increased social interaction and sense of identity, as well as reduced feelings of depression and improved life satisfaction, especially for those with dementia, depression, or those in life transitions.

The document provides an overview of key concepts in Person-Centered Therapy. It discusses the theory's view of human nature as trustworthy and capable of self-directed growth. The three necessary conditions for change are congruence, unconditional positive regard, and accurate empathy. These conditions allow students to become less defensive and more open to self-reflection and constructive behavior change. The document also outlines the four historical periods in the development of Person-Centered Therapy.

It describes his presenting problems of aggression and anger issues that led to his referral for psychiatric evaluation in the Navy.
The document describes surgical procedures for removing kidney stones. It indicates that open surgery is still needed in cases of obstruction, infection, failed lithotripsy, or stones too large for other procedures. It then provides details on instruments, incisions, and techniques for simple pyelolithotomy, coagulum technique, extended pyelolithotomy, and managing stones extending into the ureteropelvic junction. The goal is to remove all stones and debris while minimizing damage to the kidney and ensuring the pelvis can be closed watertight.
Principles of Management of the multiply injured patientCHRIS ALUMONA
The multiply injured or polytraumatised patient is at a greater risk of morbidity and mortality than patients with isolated injuries. This risk is greater than the sum of the risks of their individual injuries. A high index of suspicion is needed to recognise immediately life threatening injuries and promptly address them. The principles of management is captured with the ATLS protocol and every trauma surgeon should be conversant with this indispensable tool.
The document discusses three dimensions of the social that shape understandings of gender, sexuality, and heterosexuality. The structural dimension refers to patterned social relations that shape the social order through institutionalizing gender hierarchy and heterosexuality via mechanisms like law and the state. It legitimizes specific relationship forms. Everyday social practices also reproduce heteronormativity. While change is possible, heteronormativity continues to privilege monogamous coupledom and marginalize non-heterosexual relationships.
This document summarizes blunt abdominal trauma evaluation. It outlines the anatomy of the abdomen, common injury mechanisms and patterns including injuries to solid organs like the liver and spleen from deceleration forces. Assessment involves history of the traumatic mechanism and physical exam noting signs like abdominal tenderness. Diagnostic tools discussed include labs, plain films, diagnostic peritoneal lavage, focused assessment with sonography for trauma (FAST) exam, and CT scanning. Algorithms are provided for managing unstable versus stable patients based on exam and test findings.
1. There are three key sociological explanations for differences in female criminality: functionalist sex role theory, control theory, and the changing women's role or 'liberation thesis'.
2. Functionalist sex role theory argues that women are socialized differently than men and taught to be nurturing rather than aggressive, which makes criminal behavior less likely. Control theory suggests that tighter social controls on women through patriarchal structures reduce opportunities for crime.
3. The changing women's role thesis proposes that as women take on more 'male' roles in society and experience greater liberation, female crime rates have risen as social controls have weakened. However, critics argue that most female criminals are still working class women who are least
Routine activity & rational choice theory final projectLisa Shelby
This document discusses routine activity theory and rational choice theory in criminology. It defines key terms related to these theories such as routine activity, rational choice, victims, victimology, and reduced risk. It also presents survey questions about crimes people fear most, sources used to receive information on crimes, and how often these sources are used. Finally, it asks questions about mapping daily routines, experiences being a victim of crimes, and feelings of vulnerability.
The document discusses mechanisms of injury from automobile accidents and the injuries that can result. It explains that understanding the kinematics or motion of trauma is important for determining injury patterns. Various types of collisions are described like head-on, T-bone, rear-end, and rollovers. Specific injuries are associated with different collision types and points of impact like the windshield, steering wheel, and dashboard. Factors determining the need to immediately transfer an accident victim to a trauma center are also outlined.
This document discusses gender dysphoria and related topics. It begins by defining key terms like sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, and gender dysphoria. It then discusses the epidemiology of gender dysphoria, noting prevalence rates. Salient features of gender dysphoria in children, adolescents, and adults are outlined based on DSM-5 criteria. The development and course of gender dysphoria over the lifespan is described. Functional consequences, common comorbidities, and differential diagnoses are also summarized.
This document summarizes key concepts from critical criminology such as how it views crime as stemming from social and economic inequalities in society rather than individual pathology. It discusses themes like the relationship between crime and power structures, as well as the role of gender and race. The document also introduces concepts from forms of critical criminology such as left realism, critical feminist theory, and peacemaking criminology. Finally, it discusses how critical theory relates to restorative justice approaches as an alternative to punitive policies.
