Health / Re: Ct Scan For Baby With Hydrocephalus by omakay(m): 5:47pm On Apr 07
Free2Fly:


Ok. The Radiologist was actually looking for something wrong(remarkable),and where the structure appeared normal, it would be described as "unremarkable" or "uneventful".
So, unremarkable structures are those that are radiologically normal. He has nothing bad to say about them.

As for the findings generally, there's a congenital blockade in the pathway for the circulation and eventual drainage of the cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) within the brain cavity.
That blockade leads to the accumulation of the CSF(let's just call it water literally) in the cavity.

This "water" is produced within the brain cavity and it communicates with the one within the spinal cord cavity as well as circulates within the other spaces in the head, before eventually entering into the veins and back to the heart.

That blockade has prevented the circulation and drainage, resulting in the enlargement of the spaces where the "water" accumulates and thus compressing the brain matter.

The result is a big head containing more "water" than brain matter.
So, she's obviously going to have some deficits and delayed developmental milestones.

To drain the accumulated "water", she's going to have a surgical procedure where a drainage tube will be connected from that enlarged cavity within the brain and tunneled to her abdominal cavity.

That's the commonest procedure for it in Nigeria.
After the drainage, the already compressed brain matter may or may not completely recover.
So, there may likely be some mental and motor deficits.


Am so grateful for your reply. The baby in question is already 1yr and 6months. He does everything a normal baby will do except that he not turned from his back in an attempt to crawl on his belly or even sit. But he is able to turn his head to whichever direction he pleases. His motor skills are very slow just as you have stated in your report. We manually have to place him to seat in a stroller. His hands and legs are functioning( he even gets to kick you with his legs if you sit close to him) but he refuses to set them on the floor to walk. He also has the fear factor where everything scares him. Each times we try to set him down to stand, he curls his legs upward in fear. My thing with the surgery is that even if it is done, the skull will not grow small and the brain too might not bring itself up to speed. Thanks once again for your reply. I am very grateful.

Which part exactly do you not understand?

The word 'unremarkable' is used severally in the report. I need to know what that remark means from the medical stand-point.

A lot of positive findings were noted. Does it mean that this case is far from bad?
Health / Ct Scan For Baby With Hydrocephalus by omakay(m): 1:56pm On Apr 07
[/quote]CRANIAL CT SCAN REPORT

PROTOCOL: 5mm native and contrast enhanced CT slices were acquired from the level of the roof of the mouth to the vertex, with reconstruction of the axial images in (2.5mm) sagittal and coronal planes.

Images were reviewed using brain window and bone algorithm/volume rendered.

FINDINGS:

Scanogram: There is cranio-facial disproportion in favour of the cranium(? hydrocephalus).

There is a marked dilatation of the lateral and third ventricles as well as the superior part of the aqueduct of sylvius, resulting in thining out of the cereberal cortical mantle and pressure effect on the brain stem structures.

The fourth ventricles, posterior fossa basal cirstern are unremarkable.

The cerebelum, seller, parasella and suprasellar regions are preserved.

The cerebellopontine angles and internal auditory meati are unremarkable.

No infarct, intracranial space occupying lesion, intra-axial or extra-axial haemorrhagic focus is detected.

The meninges show no sign of inflammation.

The intracranial vessels demonstrates gross normal anatomy.

The calvarium, surrounding scalp, eye globes and orbital structures are unremarkable.

CONCLUSION: CT findings of non communicating hydrocephalus 2⁰ to congenital aqueductal stenosis.[quote]


Please can people with medical experience interpret this report for me.
Car Talk / Re: Mirrors Or Look Back by omakay(m): 7:55am On Feb 04
The reason those mirrors were installed was to ensure UNDIVIDED ATTENTION. The moment you take your eyes off the front windshield, you have lost control of whatever is ahead of you. That split second can change a lot of things.

As for me, I even got a bigger inner rearview mirror to improve my vision and control. You can check on jumia for it.

SocialJustice:
Delta state does not have any prominent new breed politician especially in the coming election.

TRIBALISM and conflicting ethnic interest is what will make Delta State probably never have a neutral breed of politicians to push the whole state forward at the same time.

When God needed the 'Tower of Babel' project to come to an end, he used 'different languages' to create conflicting interests amongst the people.

The same thing is playing out in Delta State. Too many conflicting interests all jammed up in one space.

Cos most of the stuffs wey you write fit dey happen for Asaba but in the real Delta.

For those of you wey don dey use one eye look me, lemme scatter your dada!!!!

Asaba can never in this life or the next represent Delta State. That place is just enjoying state capital privileges.

Roads across riverine areas of the state. YOU DEY CRAZE!!!!!!.... Na road people wan chop? How are the social amenities and structures holding up in such areas?

All the rotten stretch of roads wey the idiot 'road master's do na for areas wey no even need the road.

What is happening to the P.T.I - Osubi - Orerokpe - Eku - Abraka stretch of expressway that is supposed to be dual-carriage way and smooth!!!!!!

Effurun, Uvwei and Warri environs are looking like a ghost town. You need to access Airport road and Water Resources area to get small hope say you dey stay somewhere.... Sapele just dey there dey die dey go!!!! Hotels, churches and petrol stations nai go purge the residents there.....

That fan is an industrial fan. And churches too. It's too much for a sitting room.

How much of less power?

We need to dey specific here.

The days of buying a fan cos it has a 'nice design' is over.

For me, a fan's wattage should not exceed 40watts at most.

People using renewable energy should begin to be cautious of the kind of electronics and electrical equipment they use in their homes/ offices.

Whenever a solar person is telling me about his TV or fridge, he should be talking in wattage not size or inch.

We hope that more of our electronic electricians will get their hands strong on DC electronics cus that's why people seldom use DC equipments.

Maintenance of solar panels is usually a problem most times because of the installation location. I always advice people building their personal homes to go the way of flat roofs so that they can enjoy that advantage.

Your bulbs and other lightning in your house should not exceed 5watts per bulb (last last, the house go still bright)

When you gobinverter, you have to buy appliances by the power ratings. Those 100 or 60 watts bulbs have to go. I use the 5 watts bulbs now

Inverter AC, Refrigerator and freezer.

I have about 5 fans all low energy(60 watts).

Even my microwave is inverter type so you don't drain all the power you have


The fans at 60wats is not low enough. I use DC fans of 30watts.

Solar is the way to go when you use low energy consuming electronics.

OX fan people, this matter no concern una oo.

I don't get you right

You were reacting to @worldbank's post where he talked about buying stuffs and leaving the change.

When people dine in restaurants, they leave a tip for the waiter/waitress for good service.

Sometimes, when your change after a purchase is very small, you can decide to leave it with the seller. That gesture will either increase his profit or reduce his overheads.

That scenerio is very different from what is being discussed here.

In this black continent and country where we take care of the govt and ourselves instead of the government taking care of us, a lot of these 'entitlement mentality' will be a norm in the society.

If the government was primarily responsible for children/youth education and the burden was not thrown to parents directly, these parents would not come up with this mentality of 'because I laboured for you when you were young, you must take care of me when am old'.

To the rest of the world, money is a means of exchange but to Africans/Nigerians, money is a TOOL/WEAPON. Until we stop/change this narrative, society will continue to be like this.

Another reason why some people do not understand Freeze post is that they do not know the true meaning and use of money.

Let me ask this as an open question.

If as a wealthy man, you had an invite to go and pay your respects to the highest monarch in your region, what would you take with you as a gift?

As you answer this question , you would know your position on this matter.
