Low back pain remains the common reason to see the doctors in the clinics and in United states
it remains the second most common reason to see neurosurgeon or orthopedic doctor in their respective outpatient departments. However as the presentation is common so is the surgery for the
disease is common and as with all surgeries this also carries a small risk of complications. Bowel
perforation is a rare yet documented complication following a spinal surgery and in our case it was
diagnosed within 18 hours of the laminectomy which was performed via left sided anterolateral
approach

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

5. DEFINITION OF A WOUND
A wound is a break in the skin, which may result from physical, mechanical or thermal
damage, or develop as a result of the presence of an underlying medical or
physiological disorder. For example:
Physical damage: pressure ulcers
Mechanical damage: abrasions, grazes, lacerations, knife wounds (surgery), or
bullet wounds and bites etc.
Thermal damage: burns caused by flames, chemicals, radiation, friction or
electricity and frostbite.
Medical or physiological disorder: arterial or venous ulcers, autoimmune,
endocrine, dermatology and haematological disorders, wounds associated with
certain systemic infections, malignant diseases or neuropathy.

Intentional Wounds: result from planned treatment
Unintentional Wounds: result from unexpected trauma…accident/ burns/ shooting
Open Wounds: skin broken, portal of entry
Closed Wounds: trauma from force, skin intact, soft tissue damage, internal injury, possible
bleeding
Acute Wounds: go through normal/timely healing process
Chronic Wounds: fail to go through normal stages of healing; no timely progress in
healing

12. Acute and Chronic Wounds
Acute wounds in normal, healthy individuals heal through an
orderly sequence of physiological events that include
hemostasis, inflammation, epithelialization, fibroplasia, and
maturation.
When this process is altered, a chronic wound may develop
and is more likely to occur in patients with underlying
disorders such as peripheral artery disease, diabetes, venous
insufficiency, nutritional deficiencies, and other disease states.

14. Wound Healing
The purpose of acute inflammation is to eliminate the pathogenic insult and
remove injured tissue.
Healing is the restoration of integrity to an injured tissue.
Regeneration is the renewal of a lost tissue or part in which the lost cells are
replaced by identical ones through proliferation.
Repair is the orderly process by which a wound is eventually replaced by a scar.

15. Classification of cells by proliferative
potential
Labile cells are found in tissues that are in a constant state of renewal (skin).
Stable cells are found in tissues that normally are renewed very slowly (liver).
Permanent cells are terminally differentiated and have lost all capacity for
regeneration (neurons).

19. Phases of Wound Healing
Inflammatory phase (0-4 days)
Vasoconstriction
Hemostasis
Clot formation
Proliferative phase (2-3 days to 30 days)
Fibroblasts lay framework for ECM and new granulation
Angiogenesis connects new granulation
Epithelialization progresses across wound base
Remodeling phase (3 weeks to 2 years)
Completion of wound contraction with crosslinking of collagen and reduction in scar size
Tensile strength ultimately becomes nearly 80% of original

31. Proliferation or Granulation
10/27/2017
31
Fibroblasts synthesize and secrete collagen
and other intercellular elements that
needed for wound healing
Fibroblasts also produce FGF that needed
for angiogenesis, wound contraction and
matrix deposition
Fibroblasts and vascular epithelial cells
begin proliferating and form granulation
tissue that serves as the foundation for scar
tissue development
32. Remodeling Phase
The principle cell involved in this process is the fibroblast. When the levels of
collagen production and degradation equalize, the maturation phase of tissue
repair is said to have begun] During maturation, type III collagen, which is
prevalent during proliferation, is replaced by type I collagen. Originally
disorganized collagen fibers are rearranged, cross-linked, and aligned along
tension lines.
Remodeling can take up to 2 years after wounding.

34. Chronic Wounds
Acute wounds in normal, healthy individuals heal through an orderly
sequence of physiological events that include hemostasis, inflammation,
epithelialization, fibroplasia, and maturation.
Chronic wounds are arrested in one of these stages, usually the
inflammatory stage, and cannot progress further.
Chronic wounds are generally associated with physiological impairments
that slow or prevent wound healing. When this process is altered, a chronic
wound may develop and is more likely to occur in patients with underlying
disorders such as peripheral artery disease, diabetes, venous insufficiency,
nutritional deficiencies, and other disease states.

42. Factors Affecting Wound Healing
An individual's ability to heal and the time required can vary greatly, and are influenced by the following factors, which
should be taken into consideration during assessment:
General physical and psychological health and type and level of concurrent illnesses
Treatment: systemically and locally
Nutritional and hydration status
Type of wound, location, depth and extent of damage and type of tissue in wound
Wound temperature, moisture level and pH balance
Levels of bacterial colonisation and infection
Blood supply to the wound and surrounding area & oedema of surrounding tissues
Disruption to normal sleep pattern
History of smoking and alcohol consumption
Medications such as steroids, immune-suppressants and chemotherapy.

44. Wound Management
Wound Debridement: Debridement is the removal of necrotic, devitalised, sloughy or infected tissue,
or foreign bodies from a wound. The body can debride itself by a natural process called autolysis;
however, this may take time if large amounts of slough are present. Slough can provide an environment
for bacteria to thrive, increasing the risk of infection. Debridement is recommended as a principle of
wound management
Autolytic debridement: where the body gradually sheds itself of devitalised tissue. This process can be
augmented by the use of dressings such as hydrogels, hydrocolloids or capillary action dressings, alginates,
foams, antiseptic dressings.
Bio-surgery: sterile larvae (maggots)
Sharp debridement: using a sterile blade, scalpel or scissors. This should only be undertaken by a healthcare
professional with specific training and competence.
Surgical debridement: used when there is an urgent clinical need to remove or drain devitalised tissue and when
fast debridement would speed patient recovery. If this is required the patient should be referred to a surgeon.

45. Wound Management
Effective Exudate Management: PRINCIPLE OF MOISTURE BALANCE
Drier wounds, (except those with poor circulation), should be moistened with
dressings that hydrate tissue, e.g. hydrogels, hydrocolloid sheets and pastes.
Wounds with excess exudate require dressings that absorb or control fluid, e.g.
alginates, hydrofibres, capillary action, foams, Negative Pressure Wound
Therapy (NPWT) and compression bandages and hosiery.
Surrounding intact skin should be protected from exudate with barrier films,
creams and absorbent dressings as it can cause excoriation.
