Creating an optimal healing environment through salutogenesis for yoga therapyK Raman Sethuraman
Optimal Healing Environment (OHE) is a post modern concept that aims to promote healing through positively influencing and supporting the four domains of OHE, viz, Personal, Interpersonal, Behavioral and External domains. Sense of coherence approach to wellbeing (Salutogenesis) fits in well with interpersonal and behavioral domains of OHE. Yoga therapy uses holistic approach to mind-body healing and can focus on promoting optimal healing as a complementary healthcare service to Evidence-based modern medicine in an integrative practice of holistic care.
In 21st Century, when medical information is freely available to everyone, soft skill-set combined with technical competence is the key to professional success as a clinical care provider. The various components of soft-skills viz, Professionalism Humanism, Communication skills are discussed. Research findings on how to enhance patient satisfaction 8-fold by improving communication skills is highlighted.
Since the publication of the eye-opening revelations "To Err is Human" and "Quality Chasm" Patient Centered Care (PCC) has been promoted as an important concept which every medical student in 21st century ought to learn and internalize.
This slide set is based on recent articles published on PCC and how to effectively teach and learn in health sciences curricula. A recent doctoral research conducted by the author and his team, which has revealed robust evidence of 8-fold improvement in patient satisfaction after the postgraduates underwent intensive training of skills for effective PCC.
Using Sense of Coherence and 'ikigai' for holistic view of Humanity's respons...K Raman Sethuraman
Humanity's responses to the Covid-19 pandemic has been variable and often chaotic. This presentation attempts to use 'Sense of coherence' and 'Ikigai' as 2 lenses to gain a holistic perspective of the varied human responses to the pandemic crisis of 2020.
Comprehension or understanding, Manageability or coping-behavior, and Meaningfulness are the three components of Sense of Coherence (SOC), first proposed by Antonovsky. Ikigai is a Japanese concept of one's 'Purpose of Life', which has been modified by a life-coach from the West. Using SOC and Ikigai, we can try to get a holistic understanding of the varied responses of humanity across the globe.
Ikigai (reason for being) versus Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs K Raman Sethuraman
Ikigai is a Japanese word that signifies "sense of Purpose" in one's life. Ikigai fulfillment promotes wellness. Maslow's needs are hierarchically arranged from Basic needs to Psychological and Self-actualization needs. According to Maslow's theory, fulfillment of the "lower deficiency needs' can curb one's motivation, while fulfillment of "growth needs" would further increase the motivation to excel.
While E-health is based on networked I-C-T devices of the humans, operated by the humans for human healthcare and wellness, IOMT is a network of the ‘smart-devices’, operated by the devices for human healthcare and wellness. An estimated 160 million smart medical devices are expected to be connected in 2020. This number will increase exponentially. We need to be prepared for the disruptive influence of IOMT on the present-day healthcare paradigm. A major concern is the sheer magnitude of digital healthcare data generated by IOMT. Are we creating a "Digital Black hole" is a question for deep introspection.
In view of advances in artificial intelligence and global connectivity, tomorrow's doctors need to develop skills set that would help them to outperform the AI-gadgets and stay relevant in the 21st Century. Critical thinking, Creative Problem solving, Communication skills and Collaborative team-work are among the top skills needed for healthcare professionals of the future.
The estimated delay of 17 years for scientific discovery to reach clinical practice is a matter of great concern. The current flow-charts do not even acknowledge the important role of Effective Teaching of Basic sciences that is oriented to real-life clinical practice. This brief PPT set addresses this issue.
Salutogenic approach is based in promoting sense of coherence by making the person i) comprehend the situation or the challenge ii) find ways to manage it, using general and specific resistance resources and iii) find it meaningful to cope with the challenge and accept the outcome. Using real-life case narratives, this slide set explains how to practice salutogenic approach in patients with diabetes and its complications.
The essence of authentic assessment is to focus on real-life tasks and competencies relevant to later day professional practice. Since 2018, there is a national move in India to adopt Competency-based medical curriculum to produce IMG (Indian Medical Graduate) who would possess the competencies to be a competent clinician, an effective Communicator, a team-leader, an ethical Professional and a life-long learner. This slide-set looks at an authentic curriculum and how to develop an authentic assessment 'for', 'as' and 'of' learning.
Concepts and principles of bioethics for the students of health professionsK Raman Sethuraman
Students and many educators have difficulty in differentiating among Legal, Ethical and Moral viewpoints. After explaining these terms, the concept of biomedical ethics, a brief history of its origin in the post-War period and the components of ethics are explained. The final part is on Nursing ethics, attributes of an ethical nurse and ethical challenges faced by the nursing profession.
Novice medico to graduate doctor climbing the competency ladder K Raman Sethuraman
From the time of entry in to a medical college, over 4 to 6 years time, a novice medico is expected to acquire several competencies that go to make a competent doctor. The medical teachers need to construct the learning ladder as a progressive path to acquiring these competencies. This slide set explains the various "ladders" viz., Miller's Pyramid, Dreyfus competency stages and RIME framework and also Dunning-Kruger effect that explains why many novices do not acquire the competencies.
Authentic assessment of affective domain in medical educationK Raman Sethuraman
To be effective, Medical education needs to set up authentic methods for assessing and evaluating the affective domain, based on Bloom's taxonomy. This domain is the most difficult to assess. Checklists, Rating scales and Rubrics are useful tools, as explained in this slide-set.
Optimum assessment of cognitive domain in medical educationK Raman Sethuraman
To be effective, Medical education needs to set up authentic methods for assessing and evaluating all the domains of learning, based on Bloom's taxonomy. This slide-set is on cognitive domain.
This talk, delivered in the 4th international meet on Music Therapy at Sri Balaji Vidyapeeth, discusses the concept of Salutogenesis and highlights how a music therapist could help create an Optimal Healing Environment. Curing is not the same as Healing but they are complementary and both are perhaps essential for holistic wellness.
Innovations in Medical Education are needed to align it with 21st Century needs and aspirations. Globally efforts are under way since the release of Lancet Commission report in Dec-2010 on Transforming Health Professions in the 21st Century
Integrated teaching for effective learning in health professionsK Raman Sethuraman
Health professions education, being complex is ideally suited for integrated teaching-learning. This is a slide-set that will help you to conduct a 100-minute session set in a workshop mode. Suitable for Educators of Medicine, Dentistry, Nursing and allied health professions.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

• A case of Scabies infestation who is prescribed
benzyl benzoate emulsion

time of prescribing and dispensing

37. 3-Understandability
“You had a syncopal episode last night without
any evidence of arrhythmia. I don’t think it
was vagal but I ordered a 2D echo and holter
to rule out CVS problems. I still can’t rule out a
vertebrobasilar event.”

39. 5 – Repetition...
This is to ensure understanding. But do not repeat
the same words (like a parrot) .
Statement – Repetition – Explanation is effective
Example:
“It is important to act now before it is too late.”
Statement: “We think it’s important to act now”
-- pause --
Repetition: “It’s important to act now, -”
Explanation:“ because tomorrow may be too late.”
Making the patient repeat it is even more effective
