Six principles for engaging people and communitiesJeremy Taylor
Slides presented at King's Fund on 1 November 2016. How to make real the vision in the Five Year Forward View of "a new relationship with patients and communities"? We know a lot about the "what" and the "who" of implementation. But the "how" is still a mess. What high impact actions would make a difference to driving this agenda? I offer some thoughts. These slides are not entirely self-explanatory without the accompanying talk. Please feel free to get in touch to explore further!

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN HEALTHCARE.pdfAnujkumaranit
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It encompasses tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.

• Need to engage people in design of services
12. Our thinking so far - aims
Reducing need for A&E attendance and emergency admissions (20%
reduction target)
More local specialist diagnosis and management of health problems,
making best use of technology, reducing hospital outpatient attendances
Single assessment for long term care and pooled health and social care
budgets, helping people to stay at home where possible and reducing
placements in care outside Sheffield

Yorkshire and wider populations
Reducing the gaps in life expectancy in Sheffield
Quality of care and patient experience must continue to be improved
13. What this would mean
Ensuring all children have the best possible start in life
Supporting people to care for themselves, e.g. information and advice, use
of pharmacies
More emphasis on helping people to stay well, preventing problems
Risk identification and care planning for those most at risk of major
problems
Stronger primary and community services, including local Voluntary,
community and Faith organisations
GP practices working together in local areas, offering more services, but
sometimes in nearby practices
Integrated health and social care services
14. What this would mean
Better recognition of the connection between mental health and physical
health issues
Improved responses to mental health crises
Fewer outpatient attendances, replaced by more local services and use of
technology
Review and possible changes to urgent care services
Fewer general hospital beds in the city
More beds being used to provide specialist care to the wider population
Seven day working where that achieves better outcomes

• How do people know what is an emergency?
• Health services must be joined up?
• People taken to A&E when not necessarily needed – there needs to be more
assessment before an ambulance is called.
• Non health emergency services closed out of hours and there’s no single point of
contact.
How can we better help you to stay well?
• Professionals first need to understand what the problem is. They need to listen
and understand what’s been said. We are all part of the team!
• Bring back expert patients and expert elders.
• Improve information for people not on the internet.
• We need more self help groups
• Age Better Project - approach isolation and loneliness.
19. Summary of Discussions
What other areas (in addition to those in the presentation) are important?
• Cultural change and better links between the CCG, the council and all stakeholders
• Looking at the interest of the citizens more rather than organisations
• Prevention – Public Health should invest to save and provide people with information to
support themselves.
What do you want to know more about in relation to our vision and the need for change,
and how do you want to be involved?
• How will we measure the outcomes and know if we’re achieving the objectives?
• How will we communicate our successes or our need to further develop services to the
citizens of Sheffield?
• We want to be involved from the start of the planning – not when you have already
developed a draft strategy or set of proposals – please support true coproduction and
let us know how to get involved in all aspects of health and social care

Potential gap
Contribution of the ICP to bridging the predicted reduction in council income
The chart below illustrates that there may still be a funding gap even if the ICP delivers savings across all workstreams. In line with NHS England guidance, Sheffield CCG have assumed a 9% increase in funding over the next five years. Council income, however, is more uncertain with local government funding subject to political decisions. If we were to hypothetically assume further 10% cuts in 2015/16 and 16/17, followed by three years of 5% cuts, this would equate to a reduction of 28% over five years. The net situation in this scenario would be an overall decrease in funding of 9% over the same period and therefore the interventions we have modelled could realise just under half of the savings required.
