Oedema - pitting vs non-pitting
Oedema is swelling due to excess fluids in tissues.
In pitting oedema, pressing on the affected area leaves an indentation (that persists after removing the pressure). In non-pitting oedema, the area feels firm to touch and does not form indentations.
Pitting oedema:
The excess fluid is mainly composed of water
Commonly caused by heart failure, venous insufficiency, or nephrotic syndrome
Non-pitting oedema:
The excess fluid consists of water WITH protein and salts
Usually indicates a condition of the thyroid / lymphatic system
Different types:
Lymphoedema is due to a build-up of lymphatic fluid (e.g. due to a tumour blocking lymphatic flow / after removal of lymph nodes).
Myxoedema occurs in hypothyroidism and often affected the pretibial or periorbital area.
Angioedema is localised swelling of the skin and is usually due to allergic reactions. It typically affects the face, tongue, larynx, abdomen, arms, and legs. When the larynx is affected, it may affect breathing, which is an emergency!
Lipoedema is when fat accumulates in subcutaneous tissues - it usually affects the legs/buttocks and almost exclusively occurs in postpubertal females (not the same as cellulite!)
If patients present with oedema, it's always important to test if it's pitting or non-pitting as this helps to determine the cause and correct treatment!

Tips & tricks for students on how to remember their lessons !!
Tumblr media
There will be two categories for this and they are as follows:
路memorization-type subjects
路problem-solving subjects
Just like subjects AP (Social Studies or History) and English, they have a lot of information that needs to be revised. With that said, my first tip is to:
1) Review this details DAILY.
The more you review, the less you forget. You'll do better on exams if you review regularly. Even just around 10 minutes of your time everyday, go over your notes and read them for a bit. Afterward, test yourself if you memorize and understand it.
2) Read OUT LOUD.
Studies have shown that you are more likely to remember something if you read it out loud. Reading aloud is a simple and effective skill to add to your studying memory. Reading aloud can improve memory and place them in long-term recall.
3) VISUALIZE the information. (Best for Social Studies & Visual Learners)
This is a skill where you visualize the events of the past, and feel like you are in that position. By using this method, you should be able to comprehend everything your teacher says in class
鈽喡燩roblem-solving subjects!
These subjects include a lot of formulas that you need to master, just like Mathematics and Computer Science. Thus, my first piece of advice is to:
1) Practice solving EVERYDAY.
Just like the first tip of the first category, the more you practice the formulas, the better and more confident will be. Five practice problems everyday, and you'll be able to master this.
2) BREAK the material down into small pieces.
It鈥檚 easier to process and remember information if you break it up into small parts. Instead of trying to memorize an entire chapter of your textbook full of equations +
focus on one short section or key piece of information at a time.
3) EXPLAIN the material to someone else.
Teaching is one of the best ways to learn. To be able to explain something, you must be able to understand it yourself. You have to express the material in a way that is clear and understandable to another person, and doing so can +
help you absorb and understand the material better.
