Care of the injured and sick. Temperature monitoring

Fundamentals of First Aid (OPMP)

In case of sudden illnesses, it is advisable to measure before the doctor arrives. temperature. For adults, the thermometer is placed in the armpit for 5 minutes, for small children, the end of the thermometer is inserted into the anus for 3 minutes, holding the buttocks and the child himself so that he does not move. Before measuring the temperature, the thermometer is disinfected with alcohol or cologne and be sure to shake it so that the mercury column is below 36 ° C.

In patients who are being treated at home, body temperature is measured 2 times a day: in the morning (8 hours) and in the evening (16 hours), making appropriate notes on a piece of paper.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Space water engine 05.04.2023

Pale Blue, who was born in the walls of the University of Tokyo, tested the rocket engine while adjusting the orbit of the EYE satellite.

Despite the simple mechanics of operation based on Newtonian physics, and relatively low cost, water engines for satellites have not yet become widespread.

Developed by Pale Blue, the system was launched with Sony's EYE satellite as part of its Earth imaging program. At launch, the engine was turned on for approximately two minutes, during which the EYE satellite orbit was corrected.

Pale Blue was created by Japanese scientists three years ago. It is developing several types of water-based propulsion systems. The one that was launched on EYE is called "Resistojet". The principle of its operation is quite simple. Basically, it just pushes the water out of the tube to push the satellite in a given direction. Correction of the movement of the object in this case is carried out using electronics.

The company is not going to stop there. She is already working on another type of water-based engine that looks more like an ion than a simple jet engine. In this configuration, water is atomized by a microwave plasma source and ejected from the rear of the setup.

Although it has not yet been possible to test the ion engine in Pale Blue space, the company has planned an even more ambitious one - combining two engine configurations into one hybrid.
