NEUROLOGICAL NURSING
Anatomic and Physiologic Overview • The nervous system consists of two divisions: Central nervous system (CNS), including the brain and spinal cord Peripheral nervous system (PNS), made up of the cranial and spinal nerves. • The peripheral nervous system can be further divided into: Somatic, or voluntary, nervous system Autonomic, or involuntary, nervous system

NEOPLASMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE HEART AND THE MANAGEMENT
Tumors of the heart are rare; most (75% to 88%) are benign (Braunwald et al., 2001; Kamiya et al., 2001). • Primary tumors occur in less than 1% of the population; metastatic tumors have been • reported in 1.5% to 35% of oncology patients (Braunwald et al., 2001; Reynan, 1996; Shapiro, 2001). • Tumors may be sites for thrombus formation and therefore create a risk of embolism. • Dysrhythmias may occur as the myocardium or conduction system is affected. PRIMARY CARDIAC TUMOURS BENIGN 1. Myxoma 2. Papillary fibroelastoma 3. Fibroma 4. Lipoma 5. Rhabdomyomas 1. MYXOMA • Myxoma is a noncancerous tumor that arises from connective tissue, which is tissue that connects and supports other tissues all over the body. • Show familial pattern of tumor development based on autosomal dominant inheritance. • Mostly occur after trauma or even surgery i.e atrial septal defects, valve repairs. • Present with signs of right ventricle failure

GASTROINTESTINAL SYSTEM DISORDERS
Disorders of the digestive system have serious consequences for the activity of the organism as a whole congenital malformations traumatic processes inflammatory processes neoplastic processes infectious processes Digestive system communicates with the external environment through the intake of fluids and food. Common git disorders • Motor dysfunction of smooth muscle of the individual parts of the digestive system • Indigestion of food and absorption of nutrients - malabsorption syndrome • Bleeding into the individual parts of the digestive tract • Perforation of the wall of the digestive system with subsequent leakage of the contents to the peritoneal cavity • Obstruction in moving of the contents of one part of the digestive system to the next section • Circulation disorders in the wall of the individual parts of the digestive system

GASTROINTESTINAL CANCERS
Gastric or stomach cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the lining of the stomach. Gastric cancer is the fifth most frequently diagnosed cancer and the third leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. (Globocan 2018,Babiker,2021)

Definition: This describes the Impaction of the anterior shoulder against the symphysis pubis after delivery of the fetal head. Shoulder dystocia is said to have occurred when there is: • Failure of the shoulders to rotate spontaneously into anterior, posterior diameter of the pelvis outlet after delivery of the head • The anterior shoulder becomes trapped behind or on the symphysis pubis while the posterior shoulder may be in the hollow of the sacrum or high above the sacral promontory
