Background: Cardiac remodeling is important issue after surgical closure of ventricular septal defect.Objective: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate cardiac remodeling by echocardiography by measuring the ejection fraction, fractional shortening, left ventricular internal diameter during diastole (LVIDd) and left ventricular internal diameter during systole (LVIDs) after surgical closure of ventricular septal defect in different age group. Methodology: This prospective cohort studies was conducted in the Department of Cardiac Surgery at National Institute of Cardiovascular Disease (NICVD), Dhaka. Patient with surgical closure of VSD were enrolled into this study purposively and were divided into 3 groups according to the age. In group A (n=10), patients were within the age group of 2.0 to 6.0 years; age of group B (n=8) patients were 6.1-18.0 years and the group C (n=6) aged range was 18.1-42.0 years. Echocardiographic variables such as ejection fraction, fractional shortening, LVIDd, LVIDs were taken preoperatively and at 1st and 3rd month of postoperative values. Result: A total number of 24 patients was recruited for this study. The mean ages of all groups were 12.60±12.09. After 1 month ejection fraction were decreased by 5.97%, 6.71% and 5.66% in group A, group B and group C respectively. After 3 months ejection fraction were increased by 6.13%, 5.13% and 5.14% in group A, group B and group C respectively. After 1 month fractional shortening were decreased by 13.55%, 9.30% and 9.09% in group A, group B and group C respectively. After 3 months fractional shortening were increased by 7.23%, 7.35% and 4.55% in group A, group B and group C respectively. After 1 month LVIDd were increased by 1.97%, 1.91% and 1.32% in group A, group B and group C respectively. After 3 months LVIDd were decreased by 10.84%, 9.89% and 7.34% in group A, group B and group C respectively. After 1 month LVIDs were increased by 2.19%, 2.86% and 1.98% in group A, group B and group C respectively. After 3 months LVIDs were decreased by 11.68%, 10.97% and 8.87% in group A, group B and group C respectively.Conclusion: Cardiac remodeling occurred after surgical closure of ventricular septal defect and remodeling were more significant in younger age group.

Locus of control reflects the extent to which individuals believe that what happens to them is within their control, or beyond it. The objective of the present study was to study locus of control and employee engagement among the employees of automobile industry. A convenience sample consisting of ninety employees working in automobile industry participated in the study. By administering questionnaires locus of control and employee engagement among the employees were assessed. The collected data was analysed with various statistical tools like Mean, Standard Deviation, Correlation, regression and ANOVA tests. A higher level of locus of control was observed among the above 50 years age group and a higher level of employee engagement among the 41-50 age group. A higher level of locus of control and employee engagement was observed among the above 30000 income group. There were significant differences in locus of control and employee engagement among the respondents of different income groups. There was a significant positive correlation between locus of control and employee engagement. Approximately 18% of the variance of employee engagement was explained by locus of control.

Post Operative Nausea

Background: Post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is quite associated with laparoscopic surgery. In-spite of advances in surgery and post surgical care, nausea and vomiting still has a high incidence. This study was planned to explore the efcacy of a combination therapy of ondansetron with dexamethasone against PONVand compare the results with the efcacy of ondensetron-only. Method:Arandomized clinical trial study was conducted in the Department of Anesthesia, GMC Jammu, over a period of 6 months, on 50 patients in the age group of 18-50 years, of either gender, undergoing laparoscopic surgeries under general anesthesia. Patients were divided into two groups of 25 each: Group A received 4 mg of Ondansetron intravenously, while Group B received 4 mg of Ondansetron and 8 mg of Dexamethasone intravenously, soon after intubation. Results: The demographic variables of two groups were similar. While 19 (76%) patients showed post-operative nausea in Group A, while in Group B, only 8 (32%) patients experienced nausea, which was very signicant. Similarly, 11 (44%) patients showed post-operative vomiting in GroupAand only 2 (8%) complained of vomiting. 24% patients did not complain about any kind of nausea or vomiting in GroupA. Mild nausea was observedin60%patientsinGroupA,while amongonly32%patientsingroupB.Nocomplications of anykindwereobservedduringthisstudy. Conclusion: Ondensetron and dexamethasone, administered intravenously, after intubation, in laparoscopic surgery, is safe and has a better patient response in preventing post-operative nausea and vomiting.
