Cephalic Phase of Digestion01:24

Cephalic Phase of Digestion

3.7K
The process of digestion is composed of three stages – cephalic, gastric, and intestinal – each with a distinct control center. The cephalic phase is the first stage, and it starts even before the food enters the stomach. It is controlled by the central nervous system and is initiated by any food-related sensory stimuli, such as the sight and smell of food, which send signals to the brain. While eating, the taste receptors intensify these signals, which travel to the cerebral cortex...

Work Done on a System by External Force01:11

Work Done on a System by External Force

2.9K
The work done by an external force on a particle changes its kinetic energy. However, internal forces must also be considered for a system of interacting particles. The potential energy formulation helps formulate the effect of internal forces. The net work done by an external force can be written in terms of the total change of mechanical energy, which includes both kinetic and potential energies.
In the presence of a non-conservative opposing force, like friction, some part of the work done...

External and Internal Respiration01:24

External and Internal Respiration

7.4K
External respiration occurs in the lungs, and it is the first step in the journey of oxygen inside the body. When we inhale, oxygen enters our lungs and diffuses across the thin alveolar membrane. The alveoli are tiny, air-filled sacs that provide a vast surface area for gas exchange. Oxygen in the alveoli has a higher partial pressure (105 mmHg) than in the adjacent pulmonary capillaries (40 mmHg), establishing a pressure gradient. As a result, oxygen molecules move from the alveoli into the...

Internal and External Forces01:12

Internal and External Forces

16.2K
Newton's first law states that a net external force causes a change in motion. External forces act on an object or system, originating outside of the object or system. In contrast, internal forces originate inside the system of interest and do not lead to any acceleration. In simpler words, internal forces are forces that act on one part of an object and are exerted by another part of the same object. External forces are forces that act on an object due to some other object. Therefore, when...

External Anatomy of the Kidney01:21

External Anatomy of the Kidney

3.5K
The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped organs in the human body that play a critical role in maintaining overall health. They filter out waste products from the blood, regulate blood pressure, maintain electrolyte balance, and stimulate the production of red blood cells.
The kidneys are located in the retroperitoneal space on either side of the vertebral column, protected posteriorly by the 11th and 12th ribs. The right kidney sits slightly lower than the left owing to the presence of the liver...

External Female Genitals01:15

External Female Genitals

31.9K
The vulva encompasses the external structures of the female reproductive system. At the forefront is the monpubis, a cushion of fatty tissue atop the pubic bone. Once puberty sets in, this area typically grows hair. Extending from just behind the mons pubis are the labia majora (labia = 'lips'; majora = 'larger'), which are larger skin fs olds coated with hair. Nestled within are the labia minora (labia = 'lips'; minora = 'smaller'), which are thinner, more...

Area of Science:

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology
  • Maternal-Fetal Medicine

Background:

  • Management of term breech presentation lacks a universally agreed-upon approach.
  • External cephalic version (ECV) is a procedure to externally manipulate a fetus from a breech to a cephalic presentation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present management options for term breech presentation.
  • To review the evidence and success rates of external cephalic version.
  • To discuss the operational model of a dedicated breech clinic.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of external cephalic version.
  • Discussion of clinical management strategies for term breech.
  • Case series or descriptive analysis from the Liverpool Women's Hospital breech clinic.

Main Results:

  • External cephalic version success rates vary but are generally reported in the literature.
  • Specific outcomes and challenges encountered in a dedicated breech clinic setting.

Conclusions:

  • External cephalic version is a key consideration in term breech management.
  • A structured approach, such as a breech clinic, may optimize outcomes and patient choice.
