Transcript: Medical PowerPoint Template Design Elements Color Schemes for Medical Presentations Font Selection for Readability Color schemes significantly affect audience understanding and retention. In medical presentations, using blue and green hues promotes calmness and trust, while contrasting colors can highlight key information and enhance visibility. Choosing the right font is crucial for comprehension. Sans-serif fonts like Arial or Helvetica are recommended as they are easier to read on screens. Always ensure that text is large enough to be legible from a distance. Incorporating Graphics and Images Layout and Structure Incorporating relevant graphics can enhance understanding and retention of complex ideas. Use high-quality images, charts, or diagrams that directly relate to the content to support the narrative without overcrowding the slide. A well-structured layout guides the audience’s eye and improves information flow. Utilize a grid system to maintain alignment and consistency, making sure to reserve space for visual elements. Balance text with images to avoid clutter. A Blank Canvas for Your Data Presentation Tips Best Practices for Delivery Content Organization in Medical Presentations Engaging Your Audience Practicing your presentation can lead to smoother delivery and reduced anxiety. Utilize appropriate body language, voice modulation, and eye contact to foster a connection with the audience, making your message more impactful. Audience engagement is critical for effective communication. Techniques include asking rhetorical questions, using relatable examples, and incorporating multimedia elements to maintain interest and encourage participation. Title Slides and Headings Introduction to Medical Presentations Title slides set the stage for your presentation and should include the topic, your name, and the date. Headings throughout the presentation guide the audience through the narrative and facilitate smooth transitions between topics, ensuring clarity and focus on key messages. Bullet Points vs. Paragraphs Handling Questions and Feedback Bullet points provide concise and digestible pieces of information, making it easier for the audience to follow along. In contrast, paragraphs may be necessary for complex concepts but should be used sparingly to maintain attention and avoid overwhelming the viewer. Practicing and Timing Your Presentation Using Tables and Charts Tables and charts effectively present quantitative data, making complex information more approachable. They facilitate quick understanding of trends and relationships within data, enhancing the audience’s ability to interpret clinical findings or statistical results. Rehearse your presentation multiple times to refine your delivery and timing. Understanding how long each section takes helps ensure that you cover all material without rushing or exceeding your allotted time. Encourage questions to create a dialogue with your audience. Responding thoughtfully to feedback shows respect for their input and enhances clarity for everyone involved, improving overall comprehension. Citing Sources and References Importance of Visual Aids Citing sources is crucial in maintaining credibility and allowing the audience to explore further. Proper referencing not only attributes the original work but also strengthens arguments presented in the medical content, supporting evidence-based practice. Visual aids play a crucial role in medical presentations by simplifying complex information. They help audiences grasp essential concepts quickly, improving retention and engagement through the use of charts, images, and videos. Overview of PowerPoint Features PowerPoint offers various features to enhance medical presentations, including templates specifically designed for medical content, the ability to incorporate multimedia, and options for animations that can illustrate processes or changes over time. Objectives of the Medical Template The medical PowerPoint template serves to streamline the creation of presentations by providing a standardized format. This ensures consistency in design and aids users in organizing their data effectively for clarity and impact.

Ischemic Stroke 2. Hemorrhagic Stroke (American Stroke Association, 2021) warning sign of stroke! ASU service Journey of a stroke patient Hyperacute Acute Rehabilitation Community service - ICDS - Nurse-led clinic - GDH, community day care centre - Home care service - Transport support service - Respite care ASU team - 12A: mixed ward with 16 ASU beds (Officially 2 tPA beds) - Multidisciplinary approach - Weekly case conference - Protoccol-driven workflow and guideline (O et al., 2020) Neurological observation Neurological observation Best motor response Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) Eyes opening * If eyes closed due to severe swelling, record "C" Pain stimuli Peripheral Central Apply to core of body Apply to extremities Tends to give a spinal reflex Better in assessing eyes opening To assess the cortex Better in assessing motor response Ask questions 1. Name 2. Time 3. Place 4. People Best verbal response * Score "T" when patient is on endotracheal tube or tracheostomy Flexion withdrawal (M4) - no purposeful movement to remove stimuli - without rotating the wrist - no stiffness associated with the movement Flexion response (M3) - slow movement - elbow flexes rigidly - wrists rotate in a spastic-type posture - legs are not assessed for 'flexing' as bending the knees and flexing are indistinguishable (Braine & Cook, 2016) (Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow, 2021) Click to edit text Click to edit text All motor responses - Testing CNIII - Use of penlight torch, avoid using LED light - Shine the pupil at a direction - Record pupil sizes before stimuli - Equality and reactivity Pupillary response (Braine & Cook, 2016) (Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow, 2021) Atypical/Abnormal pupils Limb Power Left Right Upper limb Upper limb Lower limb Lower limb (Florence et al., 1992) Swallowing test Swallowing Test Techniques Pre-assessment Indications: - Etiologies which would impair swallow - Decreased level of consciousness - Apparent signs or complaints in swallowing difficulty - Known history of dysphagia - Apparent signs of aspiration (Martino et al., 2013) Why need nursing swallowing assessment? - Non-invasive - Not possible to perform instrumental examination on every patient with suspected dysphagia Clinical observation before the test: - Poor conscious level - Presence of tracheostomy - Difficulty in managing oral secretions (e.g choking of saliva/severe drooling) - Moist, wet, gurgly voice quality - Follow commands? Co-operative? Either one observed: -Keep NPO and refer ST!! Pre-assessment: 1. Check oral cavity (unfit dentures?) 2. Ask patient to stick out the tongue (any deviation?) 3. Ask patient to open mouth, say "ah" (use penlight to check palate and uvula) 4. Ask patient to swallow saliva first Preparation Tools: Position: - Stand on patient's dominant side - Patient sitting upright with head support, with SpO2 monitoring Implementation: Part A: Feed patient 5ml of water into patient's oral cavity by teaspoon for 3 times Part B: Sip from a cup in 10ml portion, for 3 trials Continuous observe for 2 more minutes to see any choking or desaturation for problematic clinical signs for NO problematic clinical signs * If any shaded items , stop the test immediately, withhold feeding, inform doctor and refer ST. * If pass the test, start with puree diet first. *Once ST orders diet, only ST can change the diet order. (American Association of Neuroscience Nurses, 2017) Limitations Evaluation - NO straw or feeding syringe use unless ST prescribes - Avoid dry foods, sticky foods, foods of mixed consistencies *The degree of swallowing impairment fluctuates after stroke. Ongoing assessment is needed for poststroke dysphagia (Fedder, 2017). - Cannot detect silent aspiration - Results only tell patient's tolerance on thin liquids Precautions Complications prevention Complications prevention -Hinder recovery -Associated with poorer outcomes independent of stroke severity and age - Arise within the first few weeks of stroke, i.e. during hospital and rehab stays - PREVENTABLE!! Head-to-toe assessment Head-to-toe assessment Dehydration Dehydration -Dysphagia after stroke episode - Change of food texture, limitation in limb mobility and swallowing ability will result in decrease fluid intake - Increases risk of venous thromboembolism Nursing Intervention 1. Monitor urine output 2. Administer IV fluid (0.9%NS) 3. Fluid round (also implemented in 12A) Pneumonia Pneumonia - The most common cause of fever within first 48 hours after acute stroke -Failed to manage oral secretion, Fall

Boston, MA: Wadsworth, Cengage Learning. References (Continued): By: Jules Bastien-Lepage The artists at the time were more concerned with the use of light and dark, in place of great detail, which was the style from the movement that preceded Impressionism. To put it plainly, Impressionism artists, "painted everyday subjects, they avoided the vulgar and ugly, seeking visual realism by extraordinary stylistic means." [Impressionism, in painting. (2015). In Columbia University and P. Lagasse, The Columbia Encyclopedia. New York, NY: Columbia University Press. Retrieved from http://search.credoreference.com.proxy-library.ashford.edu/content/entry/columency/impressionism_in_painting/0 In this piece, "Circus Sideshow (Parade de Cirque), by Georges Seurat, a use of pointilism is employed to aid with the Impressionism style. Up close the use of dark points/dots next to lighter points/dots creates the imagery that the subject of the piece is taking place in the evening. Seurat uses darker tones to show a later poiint in the day, as well as displaying lights to show it may be darker and harder to see in natural light. Additionally, the pointilism is used to create gradations when viewed both up close and from afar. Because of the points, the transitions from lights to darks look more seamless, the further a viewer is from the work. Degas, E. (1873). A Woman Ironing [oil on canvas; 54.3 x 39.4 cm]. Retrieved from http://www.metmuseum.org/collection/the-collection-online/search/436174 By: Vincent van Gogh Circus Sideshow (Parade de Cirque) By: Gustave Caillebotte The piece, "Joan of Arc," by Jules Bastien-Lepage, is a good example of impressionism coupled with intricate detail. Even though this was not a technique that was synonymous with the Impressionism movement, it lends itself well to supply contrast and a clear foreground and background to the piece. Because Joan of Arc is very detailed, the eye is instantly drawn to her first. Also because the background is a loose impressionistic brush stroke style, the details of Joan are more pronounced. With the detail in the foreground, it almost creates a feel of a photograph, where the focus is up front, and as a result the back ground is somewhat blurred slightly in order to give way to the forefront imagery. The drastic use of light and dark on the landscape creates a very detailed area, when viewed from a distance. Impressionism. (2014). In The Hutchinson unabridged encyclopedia with atlas and weather guide. Abington, United Kingdom: Helicon. Retrieved from http://search.credoreference.com.proxy-library.ashford.edu/content/entry/heliconhe/impressionism/0 "The Hamlet of Optevoz," by Charles-Francois Daubigny, is easily one of my favorite pieces of Impressionism art. I have stared and analyzed this for probably an hour straight, and I still pick up new details and nuances everytime I see it. Again, up close, the painting keeps consistent with the style that goes with Impressionism, but as you pull away from the piece, more details emerge. Once far enough away the piece begins to take on a feel of photo-realistic. Once again, the artist uses light and dark to create depth and contrast between shapes and images in the painting. The slight use of light at the top of the trees creates a feel of sunset, or sunrise in the town. Finally, the water, and the reflection is loose when up close, but further out creates a near perfect mirror of the landscape that is above it. This gives the eye a focal point, which is the house in the middle and draws the eye out and onto the rest of the work. This piece, by Edgar Degas, is a prime example of the loose style used by artists in this movement. a viewer has trouble pulling out detail on the painting, with the exception of the large subjects, such as the woman, table and window. But as a viewer takes in the piece with more distance, more details become apparent. These details include the iron in her hand, the clothing hanging by the wall, and the bowl sitting on the table. It also displays Impressionism by the stroke style. Upon observation of the piece, the brush stroke is visible and give the entire work depth and perspective. By: Edgar Degas Caillebotte, G. (1893).
