Marijuana can impair short-term memory and concentration, alter a person's sense of time, and increase their heart rate. Long-term use has been linked to increased risk of mental health issues like anxiety, panic attacks, and schizophrenia. Withdrawal from chronic use can cause irritability, sleeplessness, and loss of appetite. While marijuana has some medical uses, it also carries health risks like respiratory problems from smoke inhalation and impacts on memory and learning.Hookah, Marijuana And Smoking Cessations Powerpoint

Any type of smoking, including hookah and marijuana, can damage the lungs. While marijuana may have some therapeutic benefits, smoking it is still harmful to lung health as the smoke contains carcinogenic compounds. There are numerous techniques available to help with smoking cessation, such as going cold turkey, using nicotine replacements like patches or gum, or seeking medical aids from a doctor. The best approach is to choose a cessation method and commit to quitting smoking.Marj

Objectives
Identify the symptoms of marijuana intoxication
Review the research related to the short and long term effects of marijuana on the brain and body
Explore the medical uses of marijuana
Discuss marijuana as a gateway drug
What is It
Marijuana refers to the dried leaves, flowers, stems, and seeds from the hemp plant, Cannabis sativa.
The plant contains the mind-altering chemical delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)
Extracts with high amounts of THC can also be made from the cannabis plant
How is it Used
Smoked
Joints
Pipes or water pipes (bongs)
Bluntsemptied cigars that have been partly or completely refilled with marijuana.
Vaporized
Pull the active ingredients from the marijuana and collect their vapor in a storage unit which is inhaled instead of smoke.
Eaten: Brownies, cookies, or candy, or brew it as a tea.
How is it Used
Resins: A newly popular method of use is smoking or eating different forms of THC-rich resins
Smoking THC-rich resins extracted from the marijuana plant is on the rise. Users call this practice dabbing. People are using various forms of these extracts, such as:
hash oil or honey oila gooey liquid
wax or buddera soft solid with a texture like lip balm
shattera hard, amber-colored solid
Oral Ingestion
Orally consumed cannabinoids tends to be stronger and last longer (4-6 hours) than inhaled cannabis.
This is because of the way bodies metabolize THC.
When cannabis is inhaled, THC passes rapidly from the lungs to the blood stream and to the brain.
When cannabis is consumed orally, a significant portion of THC is converted into the metabolite 11-hydroxy-THC before reaching the brain.
This metabolite is believed to be slightly more potent than THC and possesses a greater blood-brain penetrability
Short Term Effects
THC effects are felt more slowly when the person eats or drinks it. (30 minutes to 1 hour)
Effects
Altered senses (for example, seeing brighter colors)
Temporary hallucinations
Altered sense of time
Changes in mood
Impaired body movement
Difficulty with thinking and problem-solving
Impaired memory
Breathing problems. Marijuana smoke irritates the lungs
Increased heart rate for up to 3 hours after smoking

- Marijuana can be addictive, with some frequent, heavy users developing tolerance and experiencing withdrawal symptoms like irritability and sleeplessness when trying to quit.
- Long-term marijuana abuse can lead to addiction and negatively impact social functioning and intellectual ability due to effects on learning and memory that persist after the drug wears off.
- While most teens do not use marijuana, current rates of teen use are around one in six for 10th graders and fewer than one in five for high school seniors.Cannabis

Cannabis, also known as marijuana, has a long history of use dating back thousands of years. It contains the psychoactive compound THC and is most commonly administered by smoking. THC binds to cannabinoid receptors in the brain and periphery, altering mood, perception, and other neurological and psychological functions. While cannabis may have medical uses such as pain relief and reducing nausea, its recreational use can impair driving ability and is associated with adverse effects including anxiety, psychosis, and lung and heart damage with long-term use.Drugs of abuse

Drugs of abuse refers to the improper use of drugs that cause euphoria. The document discusses various drugs of abuse including alcohol, nicotine, and marijuana. Alcohol is obtained through fermentation or distillation and can cause central nervous system depression as well as long term health issues like cirrhosis of the liver. Nicotine is the active ingredient in tobacco and is highly addictive, causing withdrawal symptoms when someone stops smoking. Its long term effects include depression, lung cancer, heart disease, and lung conditions. Marijuana's active ingredient is THC and its short term effects are increased heart rate and appetite as well as impaired concentration and memory.

Marijuana can have depressant, stimulant, and hallucinogenic effects due to its active compounds THC and CBD. THC is the primary psychoactive compound that binds to cannabinoid receptors in the brain to produce feelings of euphoria. Regular marijuana use can lead to dependence and negatively impact cognitive functions. Additionally, use during brain development periods like adolescence can impair brain development and connectivity.

Marijuana can be smoked, eaten, or absorbed and the most popular method is smoking. There are three main types - Indica, Sativa, and Ruderalis. The psychoactive ingredient is THC. Short term effects include increased heart rate and poor coordination, while long term effects can include learning difficulties and personality changes. Medical marijuana may help reduce nausea, pain, and seizures. Mixing marijuana and alcohol is dangerous as it can increase intoxication and impair judgment.Best Sampling Practices Webinar USP <797> Compliance & Environmental Monito...

Non-Invasive ICP Monitoring for Neurosurgeons
Non-Invasive ICP Monitoring for NeurosurgeonsDhaval Shukla
油
This presentation delves into the latest advancements in non-invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring techniques, specifically tailored for neurosurgeons. It covers the importance of ICP monitoring in clinical practice, explores various non-invasive methods, and discusses their accuracy, reliability, and clinical applications. Attendees will gain insights into the benefits of non-invasive approaches over traditional invasive methods, including reduced risk of complications and improved patient outcomes. This comprehensive overview is designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of neurosurgeons in managing patients with neurological conditions.
Invasive systems are commonly used for monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and are considered the gold standard. The availability of invasive ICP monitoring is heterogeneous, and in low- and middle-income settings, these systems are not routinely employed due to high cost or limited accessibility. The aim of this presentation is to develop recommendations to guide monitoring and ICP-driven therapies in TBI using non-invasive ICP (nICP) systems.
