    Simulated Death: The Perceived Stress And Its Impact On Undergraduate Medical Education Benjamin Zabar, Kelly L Dodge, Basmah Safdar, Sanziana Roman, John Sather, Christopher Moore, Brian Biroscak, & Leigh V Evans. Yale Department of Emergency Medicine, Yale University School Of Medicine, New Haven CT. Objectives: To determine perceived stress of medical students during simulated patient death, the impact of assigned role, and the effects on learning. Methods: This was a prospective, single blinded, randomized cross over study of third year medical students who participated in a 12 week simulation course using a high fidelity mannequin (Laerdal SimMan®) during a required surgical clerkship. All students completed a standardized multiple choice question examination (MCQE) with nine questions each on acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Students were initially randomized to two groups: Group PE/AMI and Group AMI/PE. During weekly one hour simulation sessions, each group had five student participants and an assigned team leader in a clinical scenario, while another six students observed; the students switched roles for a second related scenario and were then debriefed. During the second scenario, the simulated patient suffered cardiac arrest. At week 6, all students were exposed to a cardiac arrest scenario for which the patient was successfully resuscitated, while at week 10 the simulated patient expired. After simulation sessions at weeks 6 and 10, the students were debriefed and rated their stress during the arrest scenario on a 0-10 semantic differential scale. All students took the same MCQE at week 12. Results: We enrolled 163 medical students from 09/07-06/08, 79 in Group PE/AMI and 84 in Group AMI/PE. The mean pretest score for Group PE/AMI and Group AMI/PE were comparable for AMI (4.8 v 5.0; P = 0.30) and PE (4.2 v 4.2; P = 0.86). Students did not report significantly different stress for both successful resuscitation and patient death. (4.8 v 4.9; P=0.88) Team leaders reported the most stress followed by participants and then observers for both the successful resuscitation (6.7 v 5.5 v 3.9; P\u3c0.01) and patient death (7.3 v 5.2 v 4.1; P\u3c0.01). Score improvement out of nine possible points was similar between patient survival and death [AMI: 1.3 v 1.7 (P = 0.10); PE: 0.42 v 0.38 (P = 0.50)]. Post-test knowledge scores showed significant improvement for team leaders compared to non leaders for both AMI (2.6 v 1.3; 14% difference, P\u3c0.01) and PE scenarios (1.4 v 0.23; 13% difference, P\u3c 0.01). Conclusions: Medical students did not find simulated death to be more stressful than successful resuscitation. The role of team leader was more stressful than participating or observing cardiac arrest scenarios. No evidence was found that simulated death impairs medical student learning, therefore it may be an appropriate scenario outcome. Assigned team leaders demonstrated the greatest improvement in knowledge

    This project sought to understand the best way to integrate non-exclusionary community engagement into Swampscott, Massachusetts. A curriculum that would encourage municipal officials of Swampscott, MA to develop a more inclusive community engagement process was built and presented to local community engagement practitioners, both affiliated and not affiliated with the municipality, for their feedback. The curriculum suggests creative engagement solutions the town can offer to community members throughout a project\u27s timeline, from idea generation to problem definition, to project development, to post-implementation feedback. These methods of engagement, written under the lens of the Transformative Paradigm, were specifically designed to reduce the barriers to participation marginalized populations often face as well as encourage integration by utilizing a Whole Community approach. Findings suggest a curriculum would enhance community engagement as a municipal priority and reduce barriers to participation for hard-to-reach populations so long as there is adequate and passionate staff and sufficient resources to support these initiatives

    Heirs are entitled to the possessions or relics of the deceased, and the division of the inheritance can mean the property to be Shared with the bereaved, and then the prenup is a covenant couples make in order to make a provision or something in their household. The writing USES normative legal research methods through literature studies. The study explains that, while the marriage covenant has been made, it cannot put off the liabilities of one another, especially in the division of the property, which, although there isa wealth separating agreement, only separates the congenital items, for the possessions obtained during the marriage, when one dies, the share of the heir to the marriage will go in accordance with the islamic scriptures.

    Nanofibers and Electrospinning Method

    Get PDF
    As a result of their peculiar features like extremely high surface area to weight ratio, low density, as well as high pore volume and controllable pore size, which may not be present in other structures, nanofibers have taken centre stage in nanotechnology. The indicated properties, consequently, make non-woven nanofibers as appropriate materials for wide-spread applications. Electrospinning, because of its high productivity, simplicity, low cost, reproducibility and its potentialities of being utilised at the industrial level is regarded as one of the most potential processes in nanotechnology. This method implies the application of high voltage electric field aiming to extract very thin fibres from a polymeric fluid stream (solution or melt) potentially deliverable through a millimetre-scale needle. Electrospinning, as a technique, is reliant on various processing standards like solution properties and processing parameters. Consequently, altering these parameters could exert a considerable degree of influence on the nanofiber size, shape and morphology. Thus, by controlling those parameters well, specific fibres can be produced to benefit various applications

    In our study, the transformation of two most widely used UV filters, benzophenone-3 (BP3) and benzophenone-4 (BP4), in chlorinated water with disinfection reagents sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) and trichloroisocyanuric acid (TCCA) was studied. Based on the HPLC/MS and UV-Vis analysis the formation of two different chlorinated products (5-chloro-2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone and 3,5-dichloro-2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone) was established. Identity of chlorinated products was confirmed by means of comparison of retention times with independently synthesized standards. Photostability study showed that dichloro-derivative in water is less stable then parent compounds, which is not the case for monochloro-derivatives. Toxicity of chlorinated compounds tested by Vibrio fischeri was found to be in the same range as that of the starting compounds. Preliminary testing of real water samples from swimming pools and sea swimming areas confirmed the presence of BP3 and its 3,5-dichloro derivative
