Carpal tunnel syndrome is characterized by compression of the median nerve as it passes under the flexor retinaculum in the wrist. The most common cause is idiopathic, but other potential causes include obesity, hypothyroidism, diabetes, arthritis, and trauma. Clinical features include tingling and numbness in the thumb and first two fingers, especially at night, and difficulty with fine motor tasks. Nerve conduction studies can confirm delayed conduction in the median nerve. Treatment involves surgically decompressing the nerve by dividing the flexor retinaculum.

Topic 60 CERVICAL RIB.ppt
A cervical rib is an additional rib that arises from the 7th cervical vertebra. It is usually unilateral and more common on the right side. In 90% of cases, a cervical rib causes no symptoms. However, it can produce neurological or vascular symptoms after age 30, especially in females. These include tingling and numbness in the forearm and hand, as well as pain from compression of the subclavian artery. Differential diagnoses include carpal tunnel syndrome and cervical spine lesions. Treatment involves conservative measures like exercises or surgery to remove the rib.
Bone tumors.pptx
The document discusses two types of bone tumors - giant cell tumor (GCT) and osteosarcoma. GCT is a benign tumor but tends to recur after removal. It consists of spindle cells and multinucleated giant cells, commonly affecting bones around the knee. Treatment involves wide excision or curettage with cryotherapy. Osteosarcoma is the second most common bone tumor and highly malignant. It commonly affects long bones in teenagers and young adults, presenting with pain and swelling. Radiographs show irregular destruction with new bone formation and intense periosteal reaction.
Glaucoma & lens
The document discusses neovascular glaucoma, noting the positive findings of neovascularization along the pupillary margin and diagnosing it as such. It states that the primary pathology is in the retina and lists common causes as ischemic central retinal vein occlusion, diabetes mellitus, central retinal artery occlusion, and ocular ischemic syndrome. The document advises that miotics should be avoided as medical treatment for neovascular glaucoma, instead recommending topical atropine, steroids if inflammation is present, and apraclonidine or oral acetazolamide.

- Retinal vein occlusion can affect the central retinal vein or its branches, and can be ischemic or non-ischemic. Systemic factors like hypertension and blood diseases can predispose individuals.
- Central retinal vein occlusion causes more severe vision loss and retinal changes like hemorrhages and edema compared to branch retinal vein occlusion. Treatment includes controlling underlying causes, anti-platelets, laser photocoagulation, and intravitreal injections.
- Retinal artery occlusion is usually caused by embolism and results in irreversible vision loss. Central retinal artery occlusion causes immediate vision loss while branch occlusion affects a localized area. Emergency treatment
Chronic-complication-of-DM.pptx
Chronic complications of diabetes mellitus include macrovascular complications like atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease, as well as microvascular complications involving the eyes, kidneys, and nerves. Key microvascular complications include diabetic nephropathy, the leading cause of end-stage renal disease; retinopathy, the most common cause of blindness; and neuropathy resulting in numbness, pain, and increased risk of foot ulcers and infection. Management involves controlling risk factors like hypertension and hyperglycemia, as well as treatments tailored to each complication such as ACE inhibitors for nephropathy and laser therapy for retinopathy.
Proptosis
This presentation defines proptosis as the forward displacement of one or both eyeballs beyond the orbital margins. Proptosis is diagnosed when the distance from the orbital rim to the cornea is greater than 22mm or there is an asymmetry of more than 2mm between the eyes. Exophthalmos refers specifically to globe protrusion caused by endocrine dysfunction. Proptosis can be classified as unilateral, bilateral, acute, intermittent, or pulsating based on characteristics. Common causes include tumors, infections, trauma, vascular lesions, cysts, and endocrine disorders. Proptosis is measured using an exophthalmometer to determine if the corneal apex protrudes abnormally from the orbit. Imaging tests like CT and
Meningioma final
Meningioma is a type of tumor that arises from the meninges, the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. It is the most common non-cancerous brain tumor, accounting for 20% of all primary brain tumors. The standard treatment is surgical resection if the tumor is symptomatic or growing in size. For inoperable or recurrent tumors, radiation therapy and medical therapies may be options, though medical therapies have limited effectiveness. The prognosis depends on the tumor grade, with lower grade tumors having better outcomes.
Surgical seive
A surgical sieve is useful when trying to answer questions on the cause of a sign or symptom.
It helps to bring to mind lots of different conditions which could be potential causes.
It can also be helpful in formulating a differential diagnosis for patients where the diagnosis is not clear.

Myotonic muscular dystrophy
Myotonic muscular dystrophies are a group of inherited disorders characterized by muscle weakness and myotonia. There are two major types: DM1 and DM2. DM1 is caused by a CTG repeat expansion on chromosome 19 and is the most common type. DM2 is caused by a CCTG repeat expansion on chromosome 3. Both are dominantly inherited but only DM1 shows anticipation between generations. Symptoms range from late-onset weakness to congenital forms. Beyond muscle involvement, both types can affect multiple systems including the heart, eyes, gastrointestinal tract, and cognition. Management focuses on symptom control and multi-system screening due to the variable and progressive nature of the diseases.
Dermatomyositis PPT
Dermatomyositis is part of a group of rare diseases called the inflammatory myopathies that involve chronic (long-standing) muscle inflammation, muscle weakness, and in some cases, muscle pain. Myopathy is a general term used to describe a number of conditions affecting the muscles.
Topic 05 dislocation hip.ppt
The hip joint is a ball and socket joint that provides stability through its articulating surfaces and surrounding ligaments. The acetabulum faces outward at a 30 degree angle. Dislocations of the hip can be posterior, anterior, or central fracture-dislocations. Posterior dislocations are the most common and result from force along the femur with the hip flexed. Anterior dislocations occur when the legs are forcibly abducted and externally rotated. Reduction of dislocations is an emergency to prevent avascular necrosis, and closed reduction is usually possible. Complications can include sciatic or femoral nerve injury, avascular necrosis, arthritis, and myositis ossificans.

CAPNOGRAPHY and CAPNOMETRY/ ETCO2 .pptx
End-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) is the level of carbon dioxide that is released at the end of an exhaled breath. ETCO2 levels reflect the adequacy with which carbon dioxide (CO2) is carried in the blood back to the lungs and exhaled.
Non-invasive methods for ETCO2 measurement include capnometry and capnography. Capnometry provides a numerical value for ETCO2. In contrast, capnography delivers a more comprehensive measurement that is displayed in both graphical (waveform) and numerical form.
Sidestream devices can monitor both intubated and non-intubated patients, while mainstream devices are most often limited to intubated patients.

Exploring the Benefits of Binaural Hearing: Why Two Hearing Aids Are Better T...Ear Solutions (ESPL)
Binaural hearing using two hearing aids instead of one offers numerous advantages, including improved sound localization, enhanced sound quality, better speech understanding in noise, reduced listening effort, and greater overall satisfaction. By leveraging the brain’s natural ability to process sound from both ears, binaural hearing aids provide a more balanced, clear, and comfortable hearing experience. If you or a loved one is considering hearing aids, consult with a hearing care professional at Ear Solutions hearing aid clinic in Mumbai to explore the benefits of binaural hearing and determine the best solution for your hearing needs. Embracing binaural hearing can lead to a richer, more engaging auditory experience and significantly improve your quality of life.
