- Exploding head syndrome.
Exploding head syndrome
This noise usually occurs within an hour or two of falling asleep, but is not necessarily the result of a dream and can happen while awake as well.
Causes:-
The cause of the exploding head syndrome (EHS) is not known, but :

The cause of the exploding head syndrome (EHS) is not known, but :
- Some physicians have reported its correlation with stress, anxiety, and extreme fatigue.
- It may be the result of a sudden movement of a middle ear component or of the eustachian tube.
- It may be the result of a form of minor seizure in the temporal lobe where the nerve cells for hearing are located.

- Renal trauma grading scale.
Basically we can divide renal trauma into five grades.
The grades I , II and III are classified as minor traumas, and the grades IV,V as major :-
- Grade I: contusion or subcapsular hematoma, without parenchymal laceration.
- Grade II: superficial cortical laceration less than 1 cm deep.
- Grade III: deep cortical laceration extending more than 1 cm.
- Grade IV:
- corticomedullary laceration with collecting system injury and urinary extravasation.
- vascular injury:- laceration or thrombosis of a segmental artery.
- Grade V:
- Multiple deep lacerations.
- Thrombosis of the main renal artery.
- Avulsion of renal hilum which devascularizes kidney.

- Bladder Injury.
Bladder Injury
Aetiology:-
- Blunt trauma : 10% of pelvic fractures.
- Penetrating trauma :gunshots or stap wounds.
- Iatrogenic:-
- Obestetric :- 0.3% with caeserean section.
- Gynaecological e.g.during a vaginal or abdominal hysterectomy.
- Urological e.g during cystescopy.
- Orthopaedic e.g. pins and screws can commonly perforate the urinary bladder, particularly during internal fixation of pelvic fractures.
- Idiopathic:- due to presence of a previous scar.
Classification(Pathophysiology):-
- Extraperitoneal rupture bladder: Usually due to fracture pelvis,and Extravasation occur at the perivesical space and may extend up to the anterior abdominal wall,If the urogenital membrane is injuried.
- Intraperitoneal rupture bladder:(The most dangerous) Usually due to direct trauma when the bladder is full,associated with electrolyte disturbance and may passed unnoticed for along time.

-Duhin-Johnson syndrome.
Duhin-Johnson syndrome.
It is Autosomal recessive disease characterized by Partial defect in excretion of conjugated bilirubin into the bile.*Clinical picture:-It is usually asymptomatic.
- Jaundice.
- Good general condition.
*Investigations:-
- Bilirubin: mild elevation of direct bilirubin
- Biopsy (dark pigment inside hepatocytes i.e the liver is black in colour), it had been proved to be a metabolite of catecholamines.
- +ve Bromosulphthalein (BSP) Test: Normally 90% of this dye is removed from blood within 45 minutes after I.V injection in normal liver. In Dubin-Johnson syndrome there is a late rise in plasma SSP after an initial fall due to reflux of the dye from the liver reflecting hepatic excretion defect.
- No evidence of obstruction.
- No evidence of LCF.
*Treatment:-
No treatment (almost normal life span).Friday, 29 October 2010

Arterial line placement.
An intra-arterial catheter (A-line) is a very small plastic tube (called catheter) placed in one of your blood vessels (an artery) by highly trained personnel. This is usually done during or before certain types of surgery or in the Intensive Care Unit.To see how to undergo Arterial line see the following video from New Engeland Journal of Medicine.
you can see the video online on NEJM here or

*In the 1st trimester:- 15-20%.

-Factors affecting human linear growth.
Factors affecting human linear growth.
- Age
- Sex
- Race.
- Hereditary factors:- Children of two short parents will probably be short and vice versa.
- Endocrinal factors e.g Growth Hormone which is responsible for stimulation of body growth in humans.
- Nutritional factors:- Adequate nutrients must be available for normal growth.
- General health:- Any serious systemic disease in childhood is likely to reduce growth (e.g. chronic kidney disease or chronic infection).
- Intrauterine growth retardation (small birth weight):-These infants often growpoorly in the long term.
- Emotional deprivation and psychological factors:- These can impair growth by complex, poorly understood mechanisms.
- Chromosomal abnormalities.
- Skeletal maturity.
