Abstract:
AbstractIn middle ear surgery via the permeatal approach, aural specula are frequently used to improve visualization of the operative field. Mechanical holders designed for retaining the aural speculum, are expensive and require sterilization for reuse. A simple technique for retaining the speculum which overcomes the drawbacks of a mechanical holder is described.

Abstract:
AbstractA study was undertaken on a 3.2 kilogram fresh stillborn neonate, to determine ways and means of preventing damage to the skull base.Gruber and Rosen aural specula were inserted separately into the right nostril, to determine the degree of exposure of the choana with each. The position of the surgeon was varied (septoplasty versus tonsillectomy position), to determine on which anatomical site of the choana the surgeon's field of vision was focused.The Gruber aural speculum, gave a completely, uninterrupted view of the choana.In the tonsillectomy position, the entire field of vision was focused on the choana itself, whilst in the septoplasty position, one half was focused on the choana and the other half on the roof. Since the roof is part of the skill base, damage to this area can result in serious intracranial complications, such as CSF leak and meningitis.These complications can be avoided if the surgeon uses the Gruber aural speculum for exposure and operates from a tonsillectomy position.

Abstract:
Dhuoda (c. 803-843), wife of the Carolingian noble Bernard of Septimania and dedicated mother of two sons, William and Bernard, displays remarkable humility in her approach to writing and is startlingly honest in her use of personal voice. Her lengthy letter offers advice, worldly and spiritual, to her elder child William. In this letter, which she titles “liber manualis,”1 Dhuoda writes about herself and her hopes for both her sons. This paper will explore the two genres — the handbook or manualis and the mirror or speculum principis — that inform Dhuoda’s letter, as well as her success at overcoming anxiety about writing in these traditionally masculine modes through distinctly female, particularly maternal, authority.

Abstract:
Thesis advisor: Boyd T. Coolman
The anonymous Speculum de mysteriis ecclesiae from the 12th century abbey of St. Victor has often been associated with the tradition of medieval liturgical commentaries, but this dissertation proposes reading it primarily as a general treatise on the spiritual life. Its unique Victorine emphasis on the combination of intellect and affect suggests a particular theology of the sign: the real ontological status of the sign relying not on Dionysian hierarchy but on ecclesial contemplation. Through the newly developed sacramental understanding of res et sacramentum, the Speculum suggests that signs have enduring value as signs that goes beyond their function as signifiers. The attainment of the signified, in other words, is only part of their gift. Their “sweetness” is found in an appreciation of their mode of signification — a signification that, the Speculum suggests, endures somehow even in heaven as a non-necessary gracious source of delight. That is, external and visible things in the Church have value not merely because they point us to particular invisible things (what the signs “mean”) but because they teach us the Church’s economy of grace. The Church, then, and her sacramental economy, are central not just to the practical life of individual salvation, but to the meaningfulness of all creation

To evaluate corneal endothelium by means of specular microscopy exam in patients with keratoconus, before and after Cornealring® corneal intrastromal ring surgery. A hundred and two eyes of sixty-seven patients, aged between 12 and 45, with the average age of 27,31 ± 8,15 years, 30 of whom females and 37 males, were selected to be submitted to the implant of Cornealring® corneal ring segments and evaluation of the corneal endothelium in the pre and post surgery (six months after the procedure) in the External Diseases and Cornea Ward of the Instituto Panamericano da Visão. Data have been stored for later analysis by software SPSS (Statistical Package of Social Science) for Windows 15.0. Only the eyes receiving two rings with 250 μ thickness showed significant statistical difference (p = 0,008). The remaining eyes showed no statistical difference (initial x final). In relation to the thickness and to the number of implanted rings, a decrease in the final coefficient was observed in most implanted rings. However, only the eyes that received two rings 250 μ thick showed significant difference (p=0,003), with a decrease of 10,1% in the coefficients of variation average. In relation to the thickness and number of implanted rings, a decrease in the percentage of hexagonal cells was observed (before and after surgery). Only the eyes that received two rings 250 μ thick showed a highly significant decrease (p=0,001) in relation to the hexagonal percentage of 9,7%. Although the parameters in the specular microscopy showed alterations mainly in the thicker rings, all the patients showed transparent corneas without clinical signs of endothelial suffering along the six months of follow-up. A longer period of study must be considered for better understanding and interpretation of the results obtained, in order to establish any relationship between eventual complications and the thickness of the implanted ring.
A tese tem por objetivo avaliar o endotélio corneal por meio de microscopia especular, de pacientes portadores de ceratocone, antes e após a cirurgia corneal pela técnica de anel intraestromal, utilizando o implante Cornealring®. Cento e dois olhos de 67 pacientes, com idade entre 12 e 45 anos (com média 27,31 ± 8,15 anos), sendo 30 do sexo feminino e 37 do sexo masculino, foram selecionados para serem submetidos ao implante dos segmentos do anel Cornealring® e avaliação do endotélio corneal no pré e pós-operatório, seis meses após o procedimento, no serviço de Doenças Externas e Córnea do Instituto Panamericano da Visão. Os dados foram armazenados, para posterior análise no software Statistical Package of Social Science (SPSS) para Windows, versão 15.0. Apenas os olhos que receberam dois anéis de espessura de 250 μ apresentaram diferença estatisticamente significativa da densidade endotelial (p = 0,008). Nos demais olhos, não houve diferença estatística (antes e após a cirurgia corneal). Notou-se que, na maioria das espessuras de anéis utilizados, houve uma diminuição do coeficiente de variação após a cirurgia corneal. Porém, só os olhos que receberam dois anéis de espessuras de 250 μ mostraram diferença significativa (p=0,003), com uma diminuição de 10,1% na média do coeficiente de variação. Observou-se diminuição no percentual de células hexagonais em relação, no tocante à espessura e à quantidade de anéis implantados. Somente os olhos que receberam os dois anéis de espessura de 250 μ mostraram diminuição altamente significativa (p=0,001), em relação ao percentual hexagonal de 9,7%. Apesar de os parâmetros na microscopia especular mostrarem-se alterados, sobretudo nos anéis com espessura maior, todos os pacientes apresentaram córneas transparentes sem sinais clínicos de sofrimento endotelial ao longo dos seis meses de seguimento. Maior tempo de estudo deve ser considerado para melhor compreensão e interpretação dos resultados encontrados, a fim de ser estabelecida alguma relação entre possíveis complicações e a espessura do anel implantado.

Abstract:
A variety of ENT disorders present to the ED on a regular basis and are seen by the ED junior doctors. The majority of these are benign, but a few may be life-threatening conditions that require immediate recognition, rapid assessment, management, and involvement of the ENT specialist, for example, severe epistaxis (especially posterior type), acute epiglottitis, angio-oedema, and Ludwig’s angina. Therefore a basic knowledge and an understanding of the diagnostic features of the common ENT conditions are vital. It would be impossible to cover the large extent of ENT conditions presenting to the ED within a small space, hence this chapter will focus on a few common ENT emergencies that a newly starting ED doctor would have to deal with on a regular basis. There is a wide variety of ENT symptoms depending on the region affected. However, it is important to keep in mind the red flag symptoms that signal urgent help of an ENT specialist is required. Some examples are: sudden unexplained sensorineural deafness, facial nerve palsy, CSF leak, difficulty swallowing with toxic appearance, and drooling saliva. The ENT physical examination is different from other systems as its components are largely inaccessible, particularly in the ED. A good headlight, an auroscope, and correct patient positioning are all important accessories. Although rod lens and flexible fibreoptic scopes for nasoendoscopy and laryngoscopy are routine investigative aids, they are outside the realm of emergency medicine. Most of the diagnosis and management, however, of ENT emergencies can be achieved by following simple rules and using basic equipment. If any patient requires more than an auroscope or standard nasal speculum for a thorough examination, they should be referred to the ENT specialist. All sorts of foreign bodies may become lodged in the ears, nose, or throat. Most of them cause discomfort but are not life-threatening. A foreign body in the throat may have the potential to compromise the airway—a fact to be borne in mind. A lot of them can be removed in the ED, particularly in adults, but children sometimes may require attention of the ENT specialist depending on their age and the capacity to cooperate.
