Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz Procedure is one of the two primary surgeries to treat stress incontinence. The other procedure is retropubic urethropexy or Burch procedure. The difference between these two procedures is that the Burch procedure uses sutures to attach the urethra and bladder to muscle tissue in the pelvic area. The Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz procedure uses sutures to attach these organs to the pelvic cartilage. The Marshall-Marchetti-Krantz procedure is performed to reinforce the bladder neck, which prevents unintentional urine loss also known as urinary stress incontinence.
Recognizing the varied features of these abnormalities of the portal venous system will help radiologists to correctly interpret images and prevent misdiagnoses. Normal anatomy The portal vein issues from the confluence of the superior mesenteric, inferior mesenteric, and splenic veins posterior to the neck of the pancreas. In its most common branching pattern, the portal vein divides at the porta hepatis into the right and left portal veins. As it courses cranially, the right portal vein first sends branches to the caudate lobe and then divides into anterior and posterior branches. The left portal vein first follows a horizontal course to the left and then turns medially toward the ligamentum teres (umbilical portion), supplying the lateral and medial segments of the left lobe
In the Philippines, it has a mortality rate of approximately 8%-10% majority are elderly people. In connection to, here in the United Kingdom it is a common disease that has a mortality rate of 6%-13%. Despite of the changes in management and treatment, mortality has not significantly improved of the past 50 years. Moreover, Most of the people having this kind of disease are treated in the hospital and therefore I would like to emphasise my nursing care plan in holistic hospital care. I would like to broaden my knowledge about Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding by focusing on: * What is Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding?
3. What is meant by Cardiac silhouette? The cardiac silhouette is the most prominent central feature of the chest x-ray and it produces a familiar gourd shape with the apex of the left ventricle located just behind the left chest nipple. 4. Which (s) condition is the drug Ceftriaxone used to treat?
* Rashes of small nodules on the soles of the feet, and, less often, on the palms of the hands or elsewhere. * Heart problems, affecting about 10% of people who have Reiter syndrome. What Causes It? : Reiter syndrome is a type of reactive arthritis, which means that another illness brings it on. Researchers don' t know exactly why some people develop Reiter syndrome after an infection while others don' t, although they suspect that genetics may play a role.
Today I will be talking about why everyone should learn how to perform CPR. I have three main points to share with you one is why it’s important to learn how to perform CPR. Two why it’s important to learn how to use an AED and the third is where to receive the proper training to become CPR and AED certified. Body: I: It’s important to learn how to perform CPR because a cardiac patient’s survival rate decreases with every second that goes by without intervention. A: According to the American heart association 70% of Americans feel helpless to act during a cardiac emergency only 32% of cardiac victims receive CPR from a bystander.
3-qualtiative platelet disorders. 4- Hypofibrinogenaemia. 4- vWD. Lab 2 Prothrombin time Introduction: The prothrombin time (PT) test is ordered to help diagnose unexplained bleeding, often along with a partial thromboplastin time (PTT) test. The PT test evaluates the extrinsic and common pathways of the coagulation cascade, while the PTT test evaluates
An ischemic stroke is typically caused by excess buildup of plague on the blood vessel walls that narrows blood flow dramatically. A hemorrhagic stroke typically occurs when the blood vessel walls weaken over time, which leads to a bulge or rupture of the vessel. Aneurysm is the most common type of hemorrhagic strokes with a low survival rate. They also kill brain cells, which can never regenerate. The affect of strokes on the body can range between mild dizziness or slight numbness to impaired speech and loss of motor control.
Fact 7 Obstetric fistula still exists because health care systems fail to provide accessible, quality maternal health care, including family planning, skilled care at birth, basic and comprehensive emergency obstetric care, and affordable treatment of fistula. Fact 8 In 2008 over 2000 health professionals were trained in preventing and managing obstetric fistula. Fact 9 Patients with uncomplicated fistulae can undergo a simple surgery to repair the hole in their bladder or rectum. The treatment cures up to 90% of obstetric fistula patients. However, since 2003 only 12 000 women in over 45 countries have received obstetric fistula treatment in Africa, Asia and the Middle East.
Therefore, platelets undergo degranulation the exocytosis of their cytoplasmic granules and release of factors that promote hemostasis. Aggregation is occurs when serotonin (vasoconstrictor), ADP (attracts more platelets and stimulates their degranulation), and thromboxane A2 (stimulates degranulation and vasoconstriction) are released. Thus it can quickly seal a small break in blood vessel. Coagulation is the last process of the hemostasis. It has three ways; intrinsic, extrinsic and common pathways.
