This document discusses low public and healthcare awareness of aphasia. An international survey found only 14% of the public had heard of aphasia, and just 5% had basic knowledge. A similar New Zealand study found awareness rates of 11% among the public and 68% among healthcare workers, but only 21% had basic knowledge. The document outlines a current research project exploring perspectives of people with aphasia on primary healthcare services through focus groups. It is predicted people with aphasia will report more negative experiences due to low awareness of aphasia among general practitioners.
This document summarizes research on developing a novel feeding system for an extrusion process to manufacture kenaf plastic composites. The system aims to provide efficient mixing of kenaf fibers and plastic with minimal clogging. It describes the kenaf fiber processing methods in Malaysia, characteristics of kenaf fibers, design of the twin screw extruder and feeding system, processing conditions tested, and analysis of the composites produced. The research aims to optimize the feeding system and processing parameters to achieve high fiber loading in the composites.
Airway assessment & Recognition of difficult airwayKhairunnisa Azman
This document discusses airway assessment and recognition of compromised airways. It defines a difficult airway as one where ventilation cannot be maintained or intubation requires multiple attempts. A thorough history and physical exam including tests like Mallampati score help predict difficult airways to prepare appropriate management. Clinical signs of airway compromise include respiratory distress, cyanosis, or loss of protective reflexes. Active interventions may be needed for obstruction, aspiration risk, or respiratory failure. Proper airway assessment and management are important for patient safety during anesthesia.
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) provides ventilatory support without intubation through a non-invasive interface like a mask. It is used initially to treat type 2 respiratory failure and prevent need for mechanical ventilation. Benefits include avoiding complications of intubation and improving outcomes by reducing mortality, morbidity, ICU/hospital stay, and costs. NIV is appropriate for patients with acute or acute on chronic respiratory failure who are cooperative, hemodynamically stable, and have an adequate cough reflex. Factors determining success include careful patient selection, skilled application and monitoring, and timely transition to invasive ventilation if needed.
Applied anatomy and physiology of paediatric anaesthesiaKhairunnisa Azman
This document discusses the key anatomical and physiological differences between pediatric and adult patients that are important for anesthesia. It notes that infants have proportionally larger tongues, narrower airways that are more prone to obstruction, and an anterior larynx. Infant respiratory systems are also more compliant, with lower functional residual capacity. Their cardiovascular systems have higher heart rates and are more sensitive to bradycardias. Infant renal, hepatic and glucose metabolism are also immature. The document provides guidance on pre-operative evaluation, fluid management, and considerations for intubation and induction for pediatric anesthesia. It emphasizes being aware of potential unexpected responses due to the anatomical and physiological differences between pediatric and adult patients.
