Aneurysms were first described by the 16th century anatomist and physician Vesalius‚ who believed they were simply a widening of the vessel (Collin et al 2009). An abdominal aneurysm (AAA) is a condition in which the abdominal aorta (a large blood vessel that supplies blood to the abdominal‚ pelvis and the lower limbs) becomes large and ballooning leading to the development of several symptoms. The condition more often occurs in males compared to females. It occurs more frequently in above the age

the new algorithm states that 41% or 136 of the subjects has appendicitis and 3 years after implementation of the new algorithm shows that 59% or 195 of the subjects have appendicitis and the new algorithm shows a significant decrease in the use of CT scanning from 39% to 18%‚ respectively. Signs and symptoms The clinical presentation of appendicitis is notoriously inconsistent.

thinking (CT) is a cognitive process in which we take nothing for granted‚ but instead we reflect on the information we receive and establish our own judgment. We are the ones who decide what to and what not to believe or do. Critical Thinking Skills Every person is capable of being a critical thinker‚ but CT is a process that we need to learn‚ develop and put into practice. As part of this process‚ experts agree on a number of skills that are the foundation and are part of the definition of CT: (a)

Concerns about radiation‚ however‚ tend to limit use of CT in pregnant women and children. A properly performed CT scan with modern equipment has a detection rate (sensitivity) of over 95%‚ and a similar specificity. Signs of appendicitis on CT scan include lack of oral contrast (oral dye) in the appendix‚ direct visualization of appendiceal enlargement (greater than 6 mm in cross-sectional diameter)

I-III was more effective against gram-positive bacteria as compared to gram-negative bacteria. Compare to CTS or OMMT‚ the MICs of the CMZH I-III against gram-positive bacteria Bacillus cereus were 8–32 times lower and against gram-positive bacteria Lysinibacillus fusiformis‚ MICs were 8-16 times lower. In case of gram-negative bacteria E. coli‚ MICs were only 4–8 times lower than that of CTS or OMMT. The difference observed in MICs against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria could possibly due
