The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

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!

5. ECG in Medical Practice by ABM Abdullah, 4th edition
6. ECG Basics, http://www.nataliescasebook.com/tag/e-c-g-basics
2. CAUSES
Placenta praevia
Abruptio placenta
Local causes like polyp,cancer cervix,varicose
veins and local trauma
Circumvallate placenta
Vasa praevia
Unclassified or indeterminate haemorrhage
3. ABRUPTIO PLACENTA
DEFINITION
• It is defined as hemorrhage
occuring during pregnancy due to
separation of normally situated
placenta.
• Also called accidental hemorrhage
or premature separation of
placenta.
4. GRADING
Sher and statland’s grading
It is of prognostic significance and
differentiates between a live and
dead fetus.
GRADE 1:Unrecognised clinically
before delivery,but evidence of
retroplacental clots on examining
the placenta
5. GRADE 2:Intermediate with
classical signs of abruption,but no
maternal distress and live fetus
GRADE 3:severe abruption with the
fetus dead
A.with coagulpathy
B.without coagulopathy
7. AETIOLOGY
The following are some of the risk
factors that are implicated
1.Medical factors
Preeclampsia and hypertension are
associated in 50% cases
Another strong correlation is with
chorioamnionitis secondary to
preterm premature rupture of
membranes
8. 2.Thrombophilias
Congenital and acquired thrombophilias
are associated with abruption.
Aquired type is antiphospholipid
syndrome-thrombosis,recurrent
miscarriage,early onset of preeclampsia
and fetal growth restriction in addition to
abruption
Congenital ,includes prothrombin gene
mutation factor v mutation protein C and S
deficiency are also associated with
abruption
9. 3.Hyperhomocystinaemia
Elevated levels of homocysteine-damage
vascular endothlium-causes abruption
This is the basis for association noticed
in women with folate deficiency
4.trauma
Blunt trauma to the abdomen
Amniocentesis
External cephalic version
Sudden uterine
decompression(hydramnios and
following delivery of 1st twin)
11. CLASSIFICATION
Vasospasm→myometrial
contraction→venous engorement and
arteriolar rupture into decidua basalis
→dev. of decidual hematoma→
seperation of placenta
Abruption is divided into 3 based on
the type of hemorrhage:
Revealed(60%):
effused blood dissects the membranes
away from the uterine wall and make
its way through cervix into vagina.
12. Concealed(35%):
blood is retained in the uterus
Due to loss of tone of uterine muscle and
absence of uterine contractions
Uterus distends to accommodate the
blood
Sometimes amnion may rupture and
there is bleeding into amniotic sac
Concealed type is more likely to lead to
couvelaire uterus and cause fetal demise
and maternal complications
14. COUVELAIRE UTERUS
There can be extensive extravasation of blood into uterine
musculature beneath serosa esp. in concealed type.
uterus show ecchymoses and tubes and ovaries drain blood.
Peritoneal cavity is also filled with blood.
This is called couvalaire uterus or uteroplacental apoplexy.
Already there is fetal hypoxia due to placental seperation
Tetanic contraction brought about by the seepage of blood
into myometrium in abruption cause ↑sed intrauterine
pressure.
this cuts off placental blood flow adding to fetal
hypoxia.thus sudden fetal death is common.
Concealed abruption is more likely to lead to couvelaire
uterus and cause fetal demise and maternal complications
15.
16. DIAGNOSIS
SYMPTOMS
Severe and constant abdominal
pain(more in concealed and less in
revealed)
Bleeding is present in revealed and
mixed types but may be absent in
concealed type.
17. SIGNS
Pallor which is out of proportion to the
extent of bleeding
Hypertension(if there is associated
preeclampsia)
Uterus larger than the expected for the
period of amenorrhoea
Uterus may be tense and tender and
even rigid(woody hard)
Difficulty in palpating underlying fetal
parts easily
Fetal distress or absent FHS.
18. In revealed uterus fundal height may
correspond to period of gestation
FHS are present
Initial presentation may be as preterm
labour with an irritable uterus and there
should be a high index of suspicion
Due to association of preeclampsia BP
may be normal even with severe
abruption.Hence findng of a normal BP
is not always reassuring
19. VAGINAL EXAMINATION
Performed after ruling out placenta praevia
Usually patient will be in labour with fixed
presenting part and on artificial rupture of
membranes,liquor will appear to be uniformly blood
stained
ULTRASOUND
Less significant role
Mainly useful to rule out placenta praevia
Sometimes retroplacental hematoma may be seen
Negative findings do not exclude abruption
Abruption is essentially a clinical diagnosis and not
an ultrasound diagnosis
20. DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS
Placenta praevia
Other causes of APH
Preterm labour
Acute polyhydramnios(absence of pallor and
ultrasound is diagnostic)
Rupture uterus(esp. incomplete rupture)
Red degeneation,pyelonephritis,and other causes
of acute abdomen
21. COMPLICATIONS
MATERNAL
1.shock
2.renal failure
3.disseminated intravascular coagulation
(liberation of thromboplastin from placenta →intravascular
coagulation→ consumption of all coagulation factors →
fall in fibrinogen level →bleeding).
4.Postpartum hemorrhage(due to atonicity and
coagulation failure)
FETAL
1.Prematurity
2.Hypoxia and fetal death
22. MANAGEMENT
Immediade management
Similar in all cases of APH
Resuscitation with blood and crystalloids and prompt
delivery
Blood transfusion
Indwelling catheter introduced and monitered
Central venous pressure line inserted
Blood taken for Hb,PCV,grouping,cross matching and
coagulation profile
Coagulation profile includes fibrinogen ,fibrin
degradation products , partial thromboplastin time,
prothrombin time and platelet count
(best marker –fibrinogen)
Clotting time,clot retracton test,stability of the clot is
also looked for
Ultrasound to confirm normal placenta and live fetus
23. Obstetric management
Immediate delivery is vital in abruption
Mode of delivery depends on gestational
age and condition of mother and fetus
fetus is alive
Ceasarian is the best method
In mild cases of revealed
abruption,imminent vaginal dlivery is
carried out
24. Fetus is dead
Vaginal delivery preferred unless bleeding is so severe or
there are other obstetric complications
Hence artificial rupture of membranes and immediate
infusion of oxytocin to hasten delivery
If delivery is not imminent after reasonable
time,caesarean section may have to be resorted to
Caesarean section
Done by experienced person with the help of an expert
anaesthetist
PPH must be anticipated
Indications for caesarean section:
Fetus is alive and capable of survival
Severe bleeding and vaginal delivery is not imminent
Failure to progress after artificial rupture of membranes
and oxytocin
25. o Coagulation failure
o It is treated by blood tranfusion
o Human recombinant activated factor
vii is best agent but very expensive
o Cryoprecipitate used if fibrinogen is
very low
o Vaginal delivery is preferred ,if
caesarean becomes
neccesary,coagulation defect is
corrected before proceeding.
o Plenty of cross matched bood should
be available
26.
27.
28. OTHER TYPES OF APH
CIRCUMVALLATE PLACENTA
In this condition chorionic plate which is on the fetal
side is smaller than than basal plate on maternal side
Fetal surface of placenta presents a central
depression surrounded by thickened greyish white ring
These pregnancies may be complicated by IUGR,↑sed
chance of fetal malformations
Bleeding is usually painless
Antenatal diagnosis is unlikely and diagnosis usually
made after examination of placenta post delivery
29.
30. VASA PRAEVIA
When the fetal vessels in the membrane cross the
region of the internal os and are ahead of
presenting part the condition is called vasa
praevia.
Occurs in 2 situations
Type 1-velamentous to cord insertion where cord
insertion is into the membranes
Type 2-presence of fetal vessels running between
lobes of a placenta with one or more accessory
lobes
these can remain undiagnosed and and it can
rupture during artificial rupture of membranes
leading to death of the fetus
31.
32. Apts test or singer’s alkali denaturation test can
be used to confirm vasa praevia
Principle-fetal Hb more resistant to alkali
denaturation
When water and blood are mixed with NaOH it
remains pink for longer if fetal in origin or turns
yellow brown in 2 min if maternal in origin
Risk factors-
Succenturiate lobe
Multiple pregnancy
IVF
33. Sometimes vessels can b palpated on vaginal
examination
Prenatal diagnosis is rarely possible by
ultrasound and doppler
Vaginal bleeding associated with variable
deccelerations on cardiotocography alerts one to
diagnose vasa praevia
34. Unclassified or intermediate APH
Exact cause of APH is unknown
There is mild bleeding but no features of
abruption or placenta praevia
Speculum examination may not reveal local
cause
Apt test-exclude VP
IUGR and poor perinatal outcome are
associated
If there is recurrent bleeding and GA is 37
weeks or more,risk factors like fetal growth
restriction delivery is preferred
In majority of cases marginal sinus rupture
is later found to be the cause
