Upon consideration for Sho-Dan, I would like to express my gratitude to the ninja lineage for compiling the information through the centuries, maintaining a practical art for the cultivation of the warrior spirit on its many different levels. This appreciation extends a great deal to my most recent personal lineage offering direct impact on modern budo and the battlefield arts. Those most recent are Moko No Tora Takamatsu sensei, Yoshikai Hatsumi sensei (who shares his birthday with me), An-Shu
1. Please explain the five causes of POVL (postoperative vision loss) during prone surgery. POVL is not a common complication of nonopthalmic surgery but it can occur in one or both eyes. Vision loss after nonopthalmic surgery is generally related to five causes: Ischemic optic neuropathy (ION), central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), central retinal vein occlusion, cortical blindness, and glycine toxicity. Nagelhout (2014) further indicates that ION accounts for 89% of POVL after prone spinal procedures
Lower back pain affects around 15% and 45% of the general American population (Schoenfeld). There are several conditions that can create lower back pain and sensory symptoms. Typically conditions cause is degeneration of disk, compression of nerves and/or arteries, or bony formation/ inflammation. One of the most common lower back condition is Spondylosis, degeneration of intervertebral disk and is often paired with Spondylitis which creates inflammation of the joints of the spine. It is important
USG use for doing many procedures for example; nerve blocks (e.g. the brachial or lumbar plexus, more distal branches of the plexus, or at less common locations such as proximal to sites of trauma or entrapment or neuroma formation), blockade of various small sensory or mixed nerves, such as the suprascapular(24), pudendal(25), intercostal(26), genitofemoral(27)
Helping Phantom Limb Pain Over the years scientists have noted many complaints of a strange form of pain called phantom limb pain. This pain is strange because it is located in an appendage that no longer exists. By many of the amputees the pain is described as totally unbearable. Phantom limb pain has even driven some victims crazy. For the amputee population this is a very real problem that definitely needs to be solved. After James Peacock had his right arm amputated last December, he
birth process, misdiagnosis, failing to test or treat a condition during pregnancy, not detecting the umbilical cord around the baby’s neck, delaying an emergency C-section and forceps and vacuum extraction. Common birth injuries include” • Brachial Plexus Injuries – damage to the upper spine and goes through the neck, shoulder, arm and hand. This can be minor to severe nerve damage, the most severe us when it results in complete paralysis • Bone Fractures – a difficult delivery can sometimes cause
During the deliver there are things that your doctor shouldn’t do to the baby while they are stuck. He/she should never put pressure on the uterus it only makes the problem worse; however, a better approach would be to apply gentle pressure right above the bladder. Also no more than three attempts to deliver the baby with a vacuum extractor. The most importantly not to pull on the baby’s head in an attempt to deliver the shoulders. This should only be a problem for women who have high risk factors
In physical therapy, patients come to the clinic with a long list of symptoms and a specific mechanism of injury. It is the physical therapists job to take this information and form hypotheses of what pathology may be affecting the patient. With the patient that has been presented in this case, a full history shows a very good description of symptoms and what the patient remembers happening when the injury occurred. With this history, an examination plan can be created in order to make this examination
A deadly knee strike to the floating rib can cause internal bleeding. Blocking (striking) with the Shin or Calf (12/14); is the next study and the practitioner must toughen and strengthen these body parts if he expects to take and deliver blows successfully without injury. Very powerful and damaging kicks can be thrown with the shin and the calves and are almost certain for a knockout. When the calf (axe kick) is being used the weight of the blow will make the opponent feel as though
Patients’ Restraint: QSEN competencies in patient restraint. Physical restraint, according to Health Care Financing Administration, can be defined as any handling, physical and mechanical methods applied to a patient with the aim of denying him or her the freedom of movement or access to his or her own body (Di Lorenzo et al., 2011). It may involve use of belts or ties that restrain movement of an individual such as seclusion. Seclusion refers to isolation from others, often done in a room that’s
THESIS: Contact sports have been here since the medieval times. Soccer was also already being put into sport use by china in the dynasties. Implied, players on both teams have agreed to be hit, pushed, shoved, and possibly fought. What can be used for considering when or where a player crosses the line? Using examples from previous court cases, we will examine how players in the NHL could be charged when excessive force against other players in the opposite team come into play. Having hockey being
