...HUMIDIFICATION Claudine Billau The formation of a tracheostomy significantly alters the patient’s respiratory physiology. In bypassing the upper respiratory tract, the patient is more susceptible to changes in humidity and there is a consequential change in the function of the respiratory mucosa. Understanding these changes is fundamental to managing these patients effectively (see Chapter 1, Anatomy and Physiology of the Respiratory Tract). NORMAL MECHANISM OF HUMIDIFICATION The upper respiratory system: the nose, pharynx, larynx and the trachea (Fig. 1), normally provides an effective system for conditioning inspired gases. As well as acting as a filter for foreign particles and microbes, the upper airway also warms and humidifies inspired gases so that the gas travelling beyond the carina enters the lower airways and the alveoli at body temperature and fully saturated with water vapour.1 As inspired air enters the upper airway and passes over the nasal turbinates and conchae, gas flow becomes turbulent. This leads to an increase in the number of gas molecules coming into contact with the nasal mucosa. The nasal mucosa is highly vascular and is kept moist by a combination of secretions from mucous glands and direct transudation of fluid through cell walls.1,2 The secreted mucus is hydroscopic and its viscosity varies depending on its glycoprotein content.2,3 The turbulent gas flow results in an increasing efficiency in the warming and conditioning of inspired...

Ben Kibler, MD A United States Tennis Association Sport Science Committee Project Tennis Recovery: A Comprehensive Review of the Research Copyright © 2010 United States Tennis Association Inc. ISBN 978-0-692-00528-6 Editors: Mark S. Kovacs, Todd S. Ellenbecker, W. Ben Kibler TENNIS RECOVERY A Comprehensive Review of the Research A United States Tennis Association Sport Science Committee Project Editors: Mark S. Kovacs, PhD Todd S. Ellenbecker, DPT W. Ben Kibler, MD Introduction In the last two decades, physical training and competitive opportunities have increased dramatically in junior, collegiate and professional tennis. This arose due to a multitude of factors, but much of it has stemmed from an increase in knowledge and understanding of scientifically based training programs focused on improving performance. As this focus on performance has increased, the area of recovery has received relatively limited focus. Recovery is a multi-faceted paradigm focusing on recovery from training—session to session, day to day and week to week. Recovery is also vitally important during training as well as in competition between matches and between days during multi-day tournaments. As more information is needed in the area of tennis specific recovery, the Sport Science Committee of the United States Tennis Association (USTA) sponsored an extensive evidence-based...

...Unit 21: Nutrition for Health and Social Care Unit code: L/601/2407 QCF Level 3: BTEC Nationals Credit value: 10 Guided learning hours: 60 Aim and purpose This unit aims to give learners an understanding of current thinking on nutritional health particularly relating to users of health and social care services. Learners will then be able to apply this understanding and make recommendations to improve the nutritional health of an individual. Unit introduction This unit builds on learner understanding of the principles introduced in Unit 5: Fundamentals of Anatomy and Physiology for Health and Social Care. Improvements in the diet of individuals are increasingly being recognised as a significant factor in maintaining, or effecting improvements, in overall health. It is therefore important that people working in the health and social care sectors, or those who are responsible for the wellbeing of others, have a good understanding of nutrition and diet. This unit gives learners an understanding of nutrition from a science-based perspective and of the role that food plays in social contexts. The unit may also provide useful underpinning knowledge for the study of food hygiene and practical culinary skills. Learners will explore concepts of nutrition using the language of nutritional science. Different aspects of nutritional health will be defined and routine ways of measuring this explored. Other aspects of nutritional data will involve describing...

...What to Never Eat After Your Workout By Cassandra Forsythe-Pribanic, PhD, RD, CSCS & Jayson Hunter, RD, CSCS Introduction Nutrition: To some people, it's just a nine-letter word synonymous with food and dieting. To others - people who know the secrets behind a better workout and a leaner body nutrition means so much more than just filling their plates. These people know that with proper nutrition, your body can experience beneficial results that out-compete any fancy pill or expensive surgical intervention. It's true! And, to take it even a step further, the timing of your nutrition with correct food choices will turn your body into an energetic, elated, lean, fat-burning machine! And who doesn't want that? We sure do! Not that being lean means you'll be automatically happier, but, if you eat the right foods at the right times, you'll feel less grumpy, you'll have more energy to exercise hard the next time you hit the gym, and you'll be pleasant for others to be around! Plus, you'll look good too! You probably already know that eating small, balanced meals every few hours is one of the keys to a healthy physique, but that's not what we're talking about here. In this special report, we're going to show you how eating the right foods at the right times following your workout will make a huge difference in how you feel when you're working out, and how you feel for the 23 hours that you're not working out. Eating correctly after your workout will also help you be able...

...Functional Job Analysis Paramedic Characteristics The Paramedic must be a confident leader who can accept the challenge and high degree of responsibility entailed in the position. The Paramedic must have excellent judgement and be able to prioritize decisions and act quickly in the best interest of the patient, must be self disciplined, able to develop patient rapport, interview hostile patients, maintain safe distance, and recognize and utilize communication unique to diverse multicultural groups and ages within those groups. Must be able to function independently at optimum level in a non-structured environment that is constantly changing. Even though the Paramedic is generally part of a two- person team generally working with a lower skill and knowledge level Basic EMT, it is the Paramedic who is held responsible for safe and therapeutic administration of drugs including narcotics. Therefore, the Paramedic must not only be knowledge about medications but must be able to apply this knowledge in a practical sense. Knowledge and practical application of medications include thoroughly knowing and understanding the general properties of all types of drugs including analgesics, anesthetics, anti-anxiety drugs, sedatives and hypnotics, anti-convulsants, central nervous stimulants, psychotherapeutics which include antidepressants, and other anti-psychotics, anticholerginics, cholergenics, muscle relaxants, anti-dysrythmics, anti-hypertensives, anticoagulants...

... September 2014 Abstract Background: Re-admissions back to the ICU is a growing problem in the United States which is of concern especially since these patients have higher in hospital mortality rates as well as longer inpatient length of stays. The objective of this study is to measure the incidence and determine the predictors of re-admissions to the Adult Intensive Care Unit. Methods: Medline (1946-present) was searched using combinations of the following search terms ‘Intensive Care Units’ OR ’Critical Care’ AND ‘Patient re-admissions’. The searches were limited to abstracts in English language between 1990 and 2014. This search was then narrowed to ‘core clinical journals’ to increase the quality of the articles but this limitation cut the number of articles down to 2/3rd and even though these articles were saved under a separate folder, eventually all 91 articles were included in the final search. The term ‘Intensive Care Units’ were narrowed to include only ‘burn’, ‘coronary’ and ‘respiratory’ care units. The CINAHL and Cochrane Database search failed to reveal any relevant results. Results: My search generated 33 articles and their review shed light on a few recurrent themes identified as being the reason for early re-admissions. Premature discharge, time gaps between reaching the wards and being seen, lack of attention by ward nurses, lack of experience of medical staff in the wards were some of the themes identified...
