This article discusses a recent case of whooping cough (pertussis) in Lima, Ohio. John Merricle, 55, has been experiencing severe coughing for two months and was recently diagnosed with whooping cough. Pertussis is highly contagious and can be fatal, especially for babies. While symptoms are usually mild at first, severe coughing develops after 1-2 weeks. The Allen County Health Department is working to contact those exposed to prevent further spread. Vaccines are recommended to protect against this "killer disease."
"Heat as Medicine" - The Keeping Warm With Sickle Cell Disease ProjectHarriet Thomson
Sickle cell disease is more common in people of African, Middle Eastern, or Mediterranean origin. Cold temperatures can trigger sickle cell crises, with symptoms like pain in wrists and knees. The study explored the heating needs of those with sickle cell disease and found that being cold indoors or outdoors often led to crises requiring hospitalization. Maintaining warmth through adequate heating helps prevent crises but many face fuel poverty due to the financial impacts of sickle cell disease on education, employment, and welfare benefits. Ensuring access to affordable heating could help reduce hospital admissions and overall healthcare costs for sickle cell disease treatment and management.
Ticks pose a growing health risk in Brookline due to factors like global warming and mild winters allowing ticks to survive. Diseases ticks can carry include Lyme disease and viruses, while a mild winter helps their numbers increase. Residents should be aware of the risks and take precautions like tick checks.
This document provides key facts about childhood burns in Canada for children ages 0-5 as part of an early childhood burn prevention program. It states that burns are the third leading cause of injury-related hospital admissions for young children, with over 1000 children admitted to hospitals each year for burns and scalds. It also notes that most pediatric scalds occur at home from hot drinks and hot surfaces, and that a hot drink comfortable for drinking can cause a serious scald to a child in 10 seconds. Common causes of childhood burns are identified as hot drinks, hot water, and hot surfaces.
Scald injuries, which occur when skin comes into contact with hot liquids or steam, are a major cause of burns. Young children under 5 years old and older adults are most at risk. To prevent scalds, households should modify kitchens and bathing areas by marking kid-free zones, installing anti-scald valves, and setting water heaters to 120°F or below. Caregivers should also closely supervise young children and test water temperature before use. Proper first aid for scalds involves quickly cooling the burned area and seeking medical help.
More burn injuries occur in winter than any other season. Each year, 200,000 Australians suffer burns according to the Fiona Wood Foundation. Most burns are preventable and occur due to negligence. The document provides tips to prevent burns at home such as regularly replacing fire alarm batteries, keeping matches and lighters out of children's reach, and having a fire escape plan if small children are present. A major burn is a medical emergency requiring an immediate call to emergency services.
This document provides a summary of strategies to prevent burn injuries in early childhood education settings. It begins with an introduction explaining that burns are a leading cause of injury for young children. The document then covers the most common types of burns for children, including scalds, electrical, and flame burns. Potential burn risks in early education environments are discussed, such as hot liquids/food, electrical outlets, and heating equipment. The document emphasizes the importance of childproofing, supervision, and teaching fire safety lessons to prevent burns. It concludes by recommending developing clear policies and utilizing local community resources.
Learn about emergency preparedness for people with disabilities, seniors or families with young children, and learn how to properly discard smoking materials to prevent fire dangers.

This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is the summary of hypotension:
Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is when the pressure of blood circulating in the body is lower than normal or expected. It's only a problem if it negatively impacts the body and causes symptoms. Normal blood pressure is usually between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg, but pressures below 90/60 are generally considered hypotensive.
