Introduction: New media and its significant impact on language learning can be traced back to no more than 60 years. Within this time, the mode of language learning has been revolutionized, by increasing user-accessibility, comfort, and exposure. The most influential types of new media used globally are computer-assisted applications, video-on-demand websites, and social network sites.Objectives: The present study has three objectivesto review the impact of new media on language learning; to determine the differences between the effects of new media languagelearning and traditional style of language learning; and to understand the assistance provided by new media technology in the language learning of populations with learning disabilities.Method: Literature review method was adopted.Results: The findings of the present paper highlights how new media has impacted language learning by generating greater accessibility, exposure to content, and user-self-efficacywhich is beneficial with the learning disability population. It has been found that the most effective way of language learning is an amalgamation of new media and conventional face-to-face language learning style. However, this content of language learning has faced degradation. The present study therefore proposes the NMCQ (New Media Content Quality) model. It provides a synthesis of effective new media language learning by matching the quantity of language learners with the quality of content being learned. It proposes an amalgamation of new media technology and human assistance in promoting effective methods of linguistic development.
Introduction
Pseudoaneurysm of the uterine artery is a condition in which extra luminal collection of blood with a turbulent flow that communicates with flowing blood of uterine artery through a defect in its arterial wall. As per literature uterine artery pseudoaneurysm is a very rare condition and its incidence is 2–3/1000 deliveries. Clinical diagnosis is very challenging and in the index case haematuria was the presenting complaint which in fact is the extremely rare presenting complaint. Angioembolization is the ideal treatment modality for such a rare condition.
Case presentation
A 25-year old female presented in a shock state with history of massive haematuria two months after delivering a baby. She was resuscitated with fluid, blood and blood products. A computed tomography angiogram was done which showed a large pseudoaneurysm of the left uterine artery so consequently angioembolization was done with n-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) and lipoid mixture. Serial assessment of biochemical and clinical parameters depicted improvement in the clinical status of the patient. She was doing well at 6 months of follow up.
Discussion
A post-partum massive haematuria could be due to pseudo aneurysm of uterine artery. The presentation of haematuria may occur due to communication of aneurysm with urinary bladder and which further get ruptured. Aggressive resuscitation and angioembolization of the pseudoaneurysm is employed to treat such patients.
Conclusion
Pseudoaneurysm of uterine artery is rare condition which may present as haematuria. Once clinical diagnosis is suspected it's better to first resuscitate and plan for angioembolization for better outcome.
