HADI PRACTICAL NEONATAL DERMATOLOGY by DR.ABDELHADI ABDELGABBAR ABDELHADI Pdf
Hadi Practical Neonatal Dermatology is intended for Midwives, Maternity Nurses, General Practitioners, Neonatal Nurses as well as Neonatal and Paediatric Doctors looking after newborns and infants. It covers most of what health care providers need to know about the skin conditions presenting during the neonatal period. The book covers birthmarks, infective and non- infective skin lesions as well as other rare presentations. The text provides the health care providers with adequate information to recognise as well as describe the skin lesions. It explains subsequent lines of management including discussion with parents and indications, and pathways for referrals. The book does not replace Dermatology textbooks but is adequate for safe and efficient practice during the busy neonatal day. The author welcomes corrections and suggestions at [email protected].
HADI PRACTICAL NEONATOLOGY BOOK 1 by ABDELHADI ABDELGABBAR ABDELHADI Pdf
Hadi Practical Neonatology ,a 2-book series of practical guidelines, is intended to provide a structured approach to the management of neonatal conditions which are likely to face the neonatal team. It is not intended to replace textbooks or to teach the beginners in the field. Prior sound knowledge of Neonatal Medicine, by the user, is essential. This book is the first in the series. It covers aspects of RESUSCITATION, THERMAL CONTROL- RESPIRATORY-CARDIOVASCULAR-INFECTIONS- ENDOCRINE & METABOLIC-GASTROINTESTINAL & NUTRITION- DERMATOLOGY- and SURGICAL NEWBORN challenges. It is my belief that neonatal doctors and nurses are an integrated team, and any demarcation is an imaginary line. The recipe of creating a backbone of good nurses is passionate support, continuous education, and practical teaching at every possible opportunity. Mutual trust and appropriate delegations are crucial to the success of the team. HADI PN series is written for the neonatal team and not just for the medical staff. The best way for consolidating the team knowledge and experience is bedside teaching. New methods and approaches of neonatal management are progressing but seem to slow down over the last few years. This may reflect the fact neonatal advances are approaching our era peak of “what is possible.” Nevertheless, many of our current practices are yet to be scrutinized to fulfil the evidence-based standards. There is no robust verification of the evidence behind our current practice of many routine day to day applications. This include but not limited to fluid requirements, duration of antibiotics courses, use of various blood products, seizures pharmacological treatment, and safe PaCO2 levels. I have reviewed multiple medical and nursing guidelines from Europe, North America, and Australia as well as Asia, South America, and Africa. I integrated many of these guidelines within this book whenever they are in accord with the international acceptable practices. Feedback and suggestions are welcome and can be sent to [email protected] The book is an updated version of the protocols and guidelines which I have developed during my work as Consultant Neonatologist. Some are adopted from various reputable institutes and modified to reflect the current evidence plus a slight flavour of my experience. Considerable effort has been exercised to ensure the doses of medications given in HADI PN are accurate. However, further confirmation by the nursing and medical staff is advised prior to the first use of each medication. HADI PN reflects the author’s own acceptable and safe practice and advice. It is written with the intention of facilitating the delivery of care to the most vulnerable newborn. The publication is written bearing in mind the wide variations in the skill mix of neonatal practitioners, nurses, and doctors. Likewise, the chall
HADI NEONATAL CLINIC COMPANION by DR.ABDELHADI ABDELGABBAR ABDELHADI Pdf
The neonatal clinic is an enjoyable yet challenging experience for the beginners as well as the experts. The execution of a thorough assessment is easier in the setting of the Neonatal Unit environment where multiple players in the team are always there to plug any gaps you may have missed. Furthermore, the context of the clinic is totally different from the scene in NICU. The conditions presenting to the clinic may bear no relevance to the usual medical problems encountered while the newborn is still in the hospital. Furthermore, many neonatal conditions come to light only after discharge, while others require different approach as the acute condition’s ramifications are endless. The parents are usually well prepared to explore all the aspects of the presenting condition. They expect to leave the clinic with satisfactory explanations and amicable solutions. Small issues may cause them great anxiety if the clinician is not able to reassure them factually, confidently, and honestly. They do not expect or imagine the condition may also be new to the clinician. Systemic approach always pays dividends. A thorough history is the key to unlock most issues. This requires a good listener, sound background knowledge and experience to extract the relevant facts during the short time slot available in the clinic. The assessment is always deficient if the examination is hurried and limited to a targeted system. Head to toe, front and back examinations are mandatory. Tailored investigation, if necessary, complete the picture. This book “HADI NEONATAL CLINIC COMPANION”, is intended to help the trainees in Neonatology as well as the well-established Neonatologist to gather their thoughts during the neonatal clinic. I have tried to spell out the steps required to tackle many presentations. I have left out some follow up issues of major challenges stemming from NICU like Chronic Lung Disease, Neonatal Fits, Post Haemorrhagic Hydrocephalus, and NEC. I may add these to next edition if I find a suitable formula to present the follow up requirements. Most problem-solving frames within this book, reflects my own approach which may be different to other Neonatologist’s approaches. Please feel free to email me at [email protected] , if you feel an alterations, corrections, additions, or omissions are necessary. I would welcome colleagues who would like to author new topics or rewrite existing topics.

The experience of walking into the neonatal unit for the first time is frightening to parents, doctors, and nurses. The beautiful decorations, elegant furniture and the gracefully dimmed lights are not seen, as if they are not existing. What matters for parents is their baby, and they see nothing but their baby. For new nurses and doctors, the tension and stress of the unfamiliar environment pulls a cataract-like blinds across both eyes. Then comes the next challenge: the Jargon and unique phrases in common use in NICU. The team, in every neonatal unit, has adopted hundreds of peculiar and unfamiliar terms as part of their daily language. They always make some efforts to explain themselves, only to divert back to their tested and trusted language. I, like many other colleagues, have struggled on many occasions to keep away from the medical jargon while talking to parents or relatives. There are countless references, books and internet sites which give tables of NICU abbreviations and terms and their counter words or phrases. This book is not intended to add to these useful resources, as they are far from perfect. The mere provision or listing of the abbreviations and their meanings, does not provide the parents or beginners with the backbone of knowledge, upon which they could assimilate in depth exploration of the challenge in question. On the other hand, there is plethora of neonatal conditions which make thorough explanation of each and everyone of them, an impossible and daunting task. Any book, in that scenario, will be comprehensive but not practical due to its length. This book, (NEW TO NICU), tries to introduce NICU to all newcomers: parents, nurses, and doctors. It highlights the essential structure of NICU and how to approach it by those who are new to it. It introduces NICU family with a brief description of their roles. Then the book goes in detail to explore the majority of day-to-day NICU language. This is coupled with summary to the situations behind phrases or abbreviations. There are some areas where the explanations are intentionally detailed, while in other areas, a brief description is offered. The communication with the neonatal team is irreplaceable and face to face discussions are the gold standard of successful dialogues. The information about the baby condition, current status, medications, nutrition, and growth are normally conveyed by the nursing staff. The questions about why (Causation), what (Condition), when (Anticipation) and how the future looks for the baby (Prognosis), are best discussed with the Doctors. Consistent and factual information build the trust between parents and the managing team. There is a place for emotions in all the interactions between staff and parents, but emotions should not colour facts to deal with the short-term outcome or long-term prognosis. New nurses and doctors joining NICU find themselves out of their depth in the first few days-weeks. This is not related to their inexperience or ignorance, but only because they are not able to follow conversations riddled with mines of abbreviations in every single sentence. I remember vividly in my first job in UK, when a nurse phoned me to tell a baby’s cannula is tissued. I felt very embarrassed (Being an experienced Registrar coming from overseas), that I could not even ask for the meaning of this phrase. I replied by saying “Thank You,” to which she replied: “Are you coming now?” I put the phone down after I said Yes!! I immediately rang my sister who is a radiologist in London, who was even more surprised that I did not know the meaning of “Cannula is tissued.” This is just one example of many which may look trivial but the accumulation of these gaps in conversations are difficult to live with. Ward rounds in particular are stressful times for those who are not familiar with NICU jargon. The jargon and abbreviations infiltrate every aspect of communication in NICU: Handovers, day to day care, resuscitation, non-emergency procedures and even offering the baby breast milk obtained from the mother! The use of abbreviations is unacceptable to many people but is the bear reality in each hospital department, and NICU is not an exception. The staff are advised to use the approved abbreviations which are published by each hospital governance body. The use of non approved abbreviations may lead to dire clinical and legal consequences. Furthermore, the staff should make every possible effort to explain to parents, in simple language, what is meant by an abbreviation or a commonly used phrase. I hope this book helps newcomers to NICU including parents, nurses, and doctors.

Take care of yourself. How many times a week do we hear or say these words' If we all took the time to care for ourselves, how much stronger will we be' More importantly how much stronger will our communities be' In Take Care of Your Self, Iraqi artist and curator Sundus Abdul Hadi turns a critical and inventive eye on the notion of self-care, rejecting the idea that self-care means buying stuff and recasting it as a collective practice rooted in the liberation struggles of the oppressed. Throughout, Abdul Hadi explores the role of art in fostering healing for those affected by racism, war, and displacement, weaving in the artwork of twenty-seven artists of color from diverse backgrounds to identify the points where these struggles intersect. In centering the voices of those often relegated to the margins of the art world and emphasizing the imperative to create safe spaces for artists of color to explore their complicated reactions to oppression, Abdul Hadi casts self-care as a political act rooted in the impulse toward self-determination, empowerment, and healing that animates the work of artists of color across the world.

Management of Diabetic Foot Complications by Clifford P. Shearman Pdf
Public and political concern about the increasing prevalence of diabetes has prompted major concern about treatment of patients with the condition. Foot complications are some of the commonest causes of hospitalisation of people with diabetes and if not treated well often lead to amputation. There is evidence that 85% of these amputations can be prevented by better understanding of the problem and by multi-disciplinary teams working more effectively together. This has been recognised and NICE have recently published guidelines on diabetic foot complications as have Diabetes UK and NHS Diabetes. These have been successful in raising awareness of the problem but the local multi-disciplinary teams need clear practical advice on how to manage the foot in diabetes and deliver high quality care. With the current interest in improving outcomes for patients with foot complications this is an ideal time to make a practical evidence-based handbook available. This book will provide clear practical guidelines on how to manage all aspects of the foot in diabetes as well as an in-depth analysis of the most recent evidence. The book will be based on care pathways with algorithms for each section so it would be of practical value in any clinic in primary or secondary care. It will appeal to a wide range of health care professionals treating people with diabetes: vascular surgeons and trainees, orthopaedic surgeons, diabetes specialist nurses, podiatrists and tissue viability nurses.

Oxidative Stress and Vascular Disease by John F. Keaney Jr. Pdf
One of the major biomedical triumphs of the post-World War II era was the defmitive demonstration that hypercholesterolemia is a key causative factor in atherosclerosis; that hypercholesterolemia can be effectively treated; and that treatment significantly reduces not only coronary disease mortality but also all cause mortality. Treatment to lower plasma levels of cholesterol - primarily low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol - is now accepted as best medical practice and both physicians and patients are being educated to take aggressive measures to lower LDL. We can confidently look forward to important decreases in the toll of coronary artery disease over the coming decades. However, there is still uncertainty as to the exact mechanisms by which elevated plasma cholesterol and LDL levels initiate and favor the progression of lesions. There is general consensus that one of the earliest responses to hypercholesterolemia is the adhesion of monocytes to aortic endothelial cells followed by their penetration into the subendothelial space, where they differentiate into macrophages. These cells, and also medial smooth muscle cells that have migrated into the subendothelial space, then become loaded with mUltiple, large droplets of cholesterol esters . . . the hallmark of the earliest visible atherosclerotic lesion, the so-called fatty streak. This lesion is the precursor of the more advanced lesions, both in animal models and in humans. Thus the centrality of hypercholesterolemia cannot be overstated. Still, the atherogenic process is complex and evolves over a long period of time.
