Internal Energy02:00

Internal Energy

36.8K
The total of all possible kinds of energy present in a substance is called the internal energy (U), sometimes symbolized as E. Suppose a system with initial internal energy, Uinitial, undergoes a change in energy (transfer of work or heat), and the final internal energy of the system is Ufinal. Change in internal energy equals the difference between Ufinal and Uinitial.

Internal Energy

The internal energy of a thermodynamic system is the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of all the molecules or entities in the system. The kinetic energy of an individual molecule includes contributions due to its rotation and vibration, as well as its translational energy. The potential energy is associated only with the interactions between one molecule and the other molecules of the system. Neither the system's location nor its motion is of any consequence as far as the internal...

Internal Receptors01:31

Internal Receptors

74.7K
Many cellular signals are hydrophilic and therefore cannot pass through the plasma membrane. However, small or hydrophobic signaling molecules can cross the hydrophobic core of the plasma membrane and bind to internal, or intracellular, receptors that reside within the cell. Many mammalian steroid hormones use this mechanism of cell signaling, as does nitric oxide (NO) gas.

International System of Units

5.1K
The International System of Units, known as the SI system, is a universally accepted measurement system recognized and used worldwide. The SI system is based on a set of three base units considered absolute, and their values do not change with location. These base units are meters, kilograms, and seconds.
Prefixes are used to define both larger and smaller quantities in the SI system. For example, milli, micro, and nano define smaller quantities, while kilo, mega, and giga are used to define...

Internal and External Forces01:12

Internal and External Forces

16.3K
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...

International Nursing Organizations I

2.3K
International Nursing Organization (ICN) is a global union of national nurses' organizations. Individual nurses can be a part of ICN through member organizations. Each member organization strives to ensure quality nursing care, sound health policies, the advancement of nursing knowledge, respect for the profession, and a satisfied and competent nursing workforce.
ICN member organizations work to advance the field of nursing and healthcare via policies, partnerships, lobbying, professional...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Suturing mesh during laparoscopic pelvic organ prolapse repair can lead to bowel obstruction. Proper mesh "burial" (peritonization) is crucial to prevent bowel herniation and reduce acute abdomen risks.

Area of Science:

  • Urogynecology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Surgical Complications

Background:

  • Laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy is a common procedure for pelvic organ prolapse.
  • The necessity of suturing the mesh peritoneum during these procedures remains debated.
  • Potential complications include mesh erosion and bowel obstruction.

Observation:

  • A case of small bowel obstruction occurred via mesh.
  • The mesh was sutured at the sacral promontory level.
  • This complication highlights a risk of laparoscopic mesh repair.

Findings:

  • Inadequate peritonization of surgical mesh can result in bowel herniation.
  • Suturing mesh at the sacral promontory increases obstruction risk.
  • Prompt surgical intervention is needed for acute abdomen symptoms post-procedure.

Implications:

  • Emphasizes the critical importance of thorough mesh peritonization in laparoscopic pelvic organ prolapse repair.
  • Suggests a low threshold for surgical intervention in patients with acute abdomen symptoms after mesh repair.
  • Highlights the need for careful technique to prevent serious complications like bowel obstruction.
