Perception of Female Surgical Residents of Their Training in the Examination of Male Genitalia in Makkah Hospitals, KSA | Chapter 11 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 The purpose of this study is to analyse female surgical residents' perceptions and confidence in clinical examinations of inguinal hernia and intimates of opposite sex in five hospitals in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. The study also aimed to offer light on the challenges and effects of various teaching modes currently in use in undergraduate education. Deficits in the clinical examination abilities of female surgical residents of the male groyne hernia and genitalia have not been addressed or researched in the Arab and Muslim communities, despite apparent cultural constraints and religious traditions. The ethnic backgrounds of the children have also influenced their future education and skills. Many systems' examinations for patients are deemed particularly sensitive to execute by students and experts of both sexes due to their sensitive character.

Methods: A cross-sectional approach was used, with 80 female surgical resident trainees from five hospitals in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, receiving a self-administered questionnaire. The study took place from September 2020 to July 2021, and it included all female surgical residents from level 1 to 5. (R1 to R5).

The findings of our study revealed that the majority of female residents have a negative view of their performance on clinical tests. The gender difference was shown to be the most important factor affecting the female resident's clinical examination of the opposite sex intimate in this investigation. Gender had an impact on 56 (81.2%) of the participants' confidence and skills in examining intimates of the opposite sex, while gender had no impact on 13 (18.8%) of the participants.

Conclusion: In a conservative culture, gender influences medical student clinical learning in a variety of ways, including clinical exposure, supervisor support, patient willingness and permission, and some undergraduate techniques of learning clinical skills that are unrelated to postgraduate needs.

A Prospective Study about Safety and Efficacy of Perioperative Lidocaine Infusion | Chapter 09 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 Opioids cause clinically significant side effects such as respiratory depression, immunosuppression, muscle rigidity, negative inotropism, nausea, vomiting, hyperalgesia, urine retention, postoperative ileus, and drowsiness. Perioperative opioids are a major contributor to the United States' and other countries' opioid epidemics. Non-opioid analgesics, particularly lidocaine, are becoming more common for perioperative use as a result of this. A total of 185 adult patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups: control group I (105 patients) [fentanyl group] or group ii (80 patients) [opioid-free anaesthesia group]. Lidocaine 1.5 mg/kg bolus followed by 1.5 mg/kg/h infusion intraoperatively, and 1.5-2 mg/kg/h infusion for 2-8 hours postoperatively were given to patients in both groups at anaesthetic induction. Intraoperatively, both groups received analgesic adjuvants such as diclofenac 75 mg, paracetamol 1 gm, and mgso4 30-50 mg/kg. If the mean arterial pressure (map)

A Brief Study of Middleware Technologies: Programming Applications and Management Systems | Chapter 15 | Novel Research Aspects in Mathematical and Computer Science Vol. 1

  Many platforms, services, applications, hardware, and operating systems are connected through the middleware layer. Because the middleware layer abstracts much low-level complexity and makes applications and software systems portable, it allows disparate systems to interface and function together in harmony. Middleware technologies enable software engineers to swiftly construct software systems and applications, allowing developers to focus on more important tasks. This chapter examines several types of middleware systems and discusses middleware capabilities, middleware operation, middleware's function in cloud-based systems, and the best middleware platforms to use. Middleware systems are widely utilised and can be found in practically any software system or application. Middleware programmes provide as a link between many sorts of systems and protocols. They serve as a mechanism for various systems. To successfully exchange information, it runs on a variety of operating system

Ethnopharmacological Survey among Traditional Medicine Practitioners in Abidjan (Côte d'Ivoire) for the Management of Pathologies such as Malaria, ENT Diseases, Diarrhea, Typhoid Fever and Anemia | Chapter 05 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 8

 Traditional Medicine Practitioners (TMPs) of Côte d'Ivoire are familiar with the therapeutic herbs. Medicinal plants have been shown to be useful in the treatment of common diseases such as malaria (KROA, 2004) and diabetes (N'GUESSAN et al, 2013) in several studies and scientific study. In the Abidjan District, the current policy is to integrate traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia into the national health system in order to improve population health coverage, particularly in the management of commonly encountered diseases such as malaria, ENT diseases, diarrhoea, typhoid fever, and anaemia. This research aims to increase the use of traditional medicine and pharmacopoeia in the national health system. Over the course of three months, fifty (50) PMTs in the District of Abidjan participated in this study. Plant therapists accounted for 30 of the 50 PMTs polled at the end of the study, or 60%. Traditional medicine centres use 61 types of medicinal plants from 36 famili
