Notably, most large and complex projects in big organizations demand a great level of executive sponsorship or leadership.

    This week’s video topic in unit 5 covers weight loss surgery, also known as bariatric surgery. The intern discusses two different procedures as an approach to weight loss. The three main things I learned from this video lecture. First, there are differences between the two gastric procedures, which was one of the issues new to me. Gastric banding segments the stomach into a small pouch by banding the stomach at the top allowing food to move slowly to the bottom part of the stomach. The size of the opening can be adjusted and the procedure is reversible. The second procedure discussed is the gastric sleeve. The gastric sleeve however is not a reversible procedure. A small surgical pouch is made in the stomach, thus removing the remaining portion of the stomach. Both procedures creates a pouch causes a decrease in appetite and reduces food intake. Also, nutrient absorption is decreased as well. Second, the surgical candidate should consider both the health issues and long term outcome as to the best fit for bariatric surgery. People who are severely obese, have obesity related health problems, and have tried unsuccessfully to most other weight loss methods would be likely to consider bariatric surgery. This area is what I liked most about the presentation. There are positive long term outcomes besides weight loss, such as, decreased risk of diabetes, sleep apnea, hypertension, cardiovascular mortality, and gastro-esophageal reflux disease. What I did not expect was the variety of complications that can occur post-op. I noted only a few, such as, internal bleeding, spread of infection, and organ damage from leakage of gastric content into the abdomen. One thing I learned from the video that I will be able to use in the future, is the intern emphasized, nutritional intake is important both prior to and after surgery. Prior to surgery, Zinc and Vitamin C for wound healing, along with Vitamin K for blood clotting. Whereas afterwards,…

    INFORMATION SYSTEMS PROJECT MANAGEMENT Referenced report IT project management 1-Successful IT project management 1-Successful It is impossible to read a newspaper,magazine,or web page without hearing about impact of information technology on our society.information is traveling faster and being shared by more individuals than ever before. There is no (one size fits all) solution to managing projects .Although project management has been an established field for many years , managing information technology projects requires ideas and information that go beyond standard project management 1.1 What is a project ? "a project is a task that has a beginning and an end" (Maylor2010) . 1.2 What is project management? "Project management is the application of knowledgement,skills,tools and techniques to project activities to meet project requirements" (Schwalble,2010) . 1.3 Project procedures : Maylor(2010) creates 4D model for project management processes : Define it-Design it-Develope it-Do it In definition process which contains a-stakholders strategy ,he assume that sucess of stackholders management is very critical issu because the complexity of requirements of many different groups of stackholders . Mayor express requirements as measures which is an explicit expression of the requirements .he relate the success in this stage to three basic issues : stakeholders,measures,timing. Schwalble(2010) summerizes the ways of project success into 3 ways 1-the project meets scope,time,cost and quality goals . 2-the project satisfied the customer/ sponsor 3-the results of the project met its main objectives. So we notice that the success of a project is not only the project manager responsibility and all stackholders share in this success . The requirements specification for IT system is collected to be: 1.4 System Requirement Specification: · Desired operational capabilities · Physical characteristics · Performance parameters and expected values · Interfaces with its…
