Short Description: This primer on mechanical ventilation provides health care professionals with a comprehensive yet clear overview of the theory of ventilation, initial settings and titration, ventilation modes, and effective decision-making based on Ideal Body Weight, safe tidal volume ranges, and arterial blood gases. Using straightforward language, everyday object lessons, and interactive self-checks, this book aims to make the basics of ventilation more accessible to non-specialist healthcare professionals. By the end of this book, learners will understand how ventilation works from initial patient assessment to weaning.
Long Description: Health care professionals often lack sufficient training on ventilators, yet they encounter them frequently in their daily practice. This primer on mechanical ventilation aims to demystify the study of mechanical ventilation, in order to make the topic more accessible to non-specialist health care professionals. The book provides a thorough overview of the theory of ventilation, ventilation modes, how to use ventilator settings to achieve goals, selecting settings for Ideal Body Weight, safe tidal volume ranges, and arterial blood gases. Learners can use the interactive self-checks to assess their progress. By the end of this book, the reader will understand how ventilation works from initial patient assessment to weaning–thereby equipping them to work with ventilators effectively under the supervision of, or in the absence of, a respiratory therapist or other supervising clinician.

In this activity, students learn about their heart rate and different ways it can be measured. Students construct a simple measurement device using clay and a toothpick, and then use this device to measure their heart rate under different circumstances (i.e., sitting, standing and jumping). Students make predictions and record data on a worksheet.

Teacher resources, MS and HS lessons on fake pills made of fentanyl - fentapills. Deaths from fake pills with fentanyl are surging across the country and right here in our own school district. In the past 18 months, we've lost several students to fentanyl-related poisonings — teenagers who had hopes and dreams and plans. These teenagers had families who loved them and are still coming to grips with their losses.
Teens are purchasing what they think are OxyContin, Percoset or Xanax pills via social media, but drug dealers are making these fake pills with the cheaper, stronger and more deadly synthetic drug called fentanyl to increase their profits. Fentanyl is up to 50 times more potent than heroin and 100 times more potent than morphine. Fentanyl is odorless, tasteless and colorless. Teens never know what they’re getting. One pill can kill them. One pill.

Biomedical research today is not only rigorous, innovative and insightful, it also has to be organized and reproducible. With more capacity to create and store data, there is the challenge of making data discoverable, understandable, and reusable. Many funding agencies and journal publishers are requiring publication of relevant data to promote open science and reproducibility of research.
In order to meet to these requirements and evolving trends, researchers and information professionals will need the data management and curation knowledge and skills to support the access, reuse and preservation of data.
This course is designed to address present and future data management needs.

"Brain scans are powerful tools for diagnosing disease, monitoring treatment, and conducting basic biological research. But slight head movements can impair image quality. Now, researchers have devised an improved method to significantly reduce this problem for a dual scanning technique called magnetic resonance – positron emission tomography, or MR-PET. Magnetic resonance, the basis of MRI scanning, builds images from the response of selected atoms in the body to radio waves under a strong magnetic field. Positron emission tomography, PET, builds images by detecting particles called positrons released by radioactive tracers after they are allowed to spread through the body. MR-PET combines the two techniques, offering advantages over either alone. But it takes a long time, as much as 90 minutes, to acquire the data to create MR-PET images. So, image-blurring artefacts and quantitative errors due to head movements can become a problem..."

"Learning something new not only changes our perspectives and behavior – it actually changes the structure of our brains. Memories and experiences are recorded in the brain by altering the physical connections between neurons. Until recently, however, the protein signals that cause these tiny structural changes were too small to measure with available imaging methods. But researchers at the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience created ultra-sensitive sensors and revealed the activity of two of the proteins that write memories into neural circuits in the brain. Individual neurons have many branches, or dendrites. And each dendrite can be covered with thousands of tiny bumps called spines, where messages are received from other neurons. Changes in spine size are one way memories are recorded-when lots of messages are being passed and a spine is very active, it gets bigger. Many proteins need to be activated to make spines grow..."
