A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF PRIMARY & SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHERS IN REFERENCE TO THEIR SELF CONFIDENCE

<p>In the present study, an attempt has been made to compare the self confidence of primary and secondary school teachers of Bareilly District on the basis of 10 areas :-I- Physical Confidence, II - Technological Confidence, III - Social Confidence, IV - Psychological Confidence, V - Judgment Confidence, VI - Readiness Confidence, VII - Environment Confidence, VIII - Stage confidence, IX - Status confidence, X - Peer Independence Confidence. This study has been conducted on a sample of 114 primary and secondary school teachers selected randomly from schools affiliated to C.B.S.E. & U.P. Board. The main finding of the study exhibited significant difference between male and female, primary and secondary school teachers of C.B.S.E & U.P. Board. Male teachers were found to posses more physical confident as compared to that of female teachers. Further, significant difference in physical confidence was also found between male and female teachers of primary and secondary schools. No significant difference was found in other dimensions such as:-Technological Confidence, Social Confidence, Psychological Confidence, Judgment Confidence, Readiness Confidence, Environment Confidence, Stage Confidence, Status Confidence and Peer Independence Confidence.</p> <p> </p&gt

Aesthetic rehabilitation of Ellis class III fracture: A case report

Trauma to anterior teeth has a significant impact on social well being of patient especially in teenagers. A fractured anterior tooth needs immediate clinical attention. If it is left untreated it causes damage to dentition and affects the aesthetic of patient. It even has a psychological impact on the patient. Because of the position in the arch the majority of dental injuries involve the anterior teeth, especially the maxillary incisors. In this case the broken fragment was not preserved by the patient. Thus firstly endodontic treatment is done followed by placement of post. Composite build up was done. Permanent restoration with porcelain fused metal (PFM) is opted to overcome the problem of esthetics and functional durability

Incidence of posterior wall penetration during internal jugular vein cannulation: A comparison of two techniques using real-time ultrasound

Background and Aims: The true incidence of penetration of the posterior wall (through-and-through puncture) of the internal jugular vein (IJV) during cannulation is unknown. This may have implications if there is hematoma formation, penetration and/or inadvertent cannulation of an underlying carotid artery. This study compared the incidence of posterior wall puncture during IJV cannulation using ultrasound guidance versus traditional landmarks-guided technique. Methods: One hundred and seventy adult patients admitted to a gastro-liver Intensive Care Unit who required central venous lines were randomly divided into Group A: IJV cannulation using anatomical landmark-guided technique and Group B: IJV cannulation using real-time ultrasound guidance. In both groups, a second investigator followed the needle path using real-time ultrasound. The incidence of posterior wall puncture, number of attempts for successful cannulation, incidence of inadvertent arterial punctures and occurrence of complications such as hematoma formation and pneumothorax were recorded. Results: Significantly more (37/80, 46%) patients in Group A had posterior wall puncture compared to 19/90 (21%) in Group B. Incidence of arterial puncture was 8/80 (10%) in Group A, 5/90 (5.5%) in Group B. The number of attempts for venous cannulation and hematoma formation was significantly less in Group B. Conclusion: Real-time ultrasound-guided IJV cannulation significantly reduces but does not wholly eliminate the incidence of posterior venous wall penetrations. It also significantly reduces the incidence of inadvertent arterial punctures and number of attempts for successful cannulation
