Behavior therapy is a type of psychotherapy which is based on theories of learning and aims at changing maladaptive behavior and substituting it with adaptive behavior.
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a treatment for certain mental illnesses. During this therapy, electrical currents are sent through the brain to induce a seizure.
The procedure has been shown to help people with clinical depression. It’s most often used to treat people who don’t respond to medication.
Individual psychotherapy is a one to one therapy wherein the therapist identifies the root cause of symptoms that are hidden in the subconsciousness by using the principles of psychoanalysis. The client is helped to gain insight about these represeed thoughts and feelings and thus acquiring better resolution of the mental conflicts

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!

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.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Pulmonary Thromboembolism - etilogy, types, medical- Surgical and nursing man...VarunMahajani
Disruption of blood supply to lung alveoli due to blockage of one or more pulmonary blood vessels is called as Pulmonary thromboembolism. In this presentation we will discuss its causes, types and its management in depth.
2. Introduction
• It is a form of treatment for problems in which
a trained person deliberately establishes a
professional relationship with patient, with
the objective of removing or modifying
existing symptoms and promoting positive
personality, growth and development.
3. Definition
• Behavior therapy is a type of psychotherapy
which is based on theories of learning and
aims at changing maladaptive behavior and
substituting it with adaptive behavior.
4. Goal of behavior therapy
• The main goal or aim of the behavior therapy
is to remove the maladaptive behavior and
substitute it with the adaptive or positive and
desirable behavior.
5. Assumption of behavior therapy
• All the behavior is learned.
• Human beings are passive organism that can
be conditioned or shaped to do anything if
correct responses are rewarded or reinforced.
• Maladaptive behavior can be unlearned and
can be replaced by adaptive behavior if the
person receives exposure to specific stimuli
and reinforcement for the desired adaptive
behavior.
6. Cont..
• Behavioral assessment is focused more on the
current behavior rather than on historical
antecedents.
• Treatment strategies are individually tailored.
7. Advantages of behavior therapy
• Behavior therapists use empirically tested
techniques, assuring that the clients are
receiving both effective and brief technique.
• Reduce incidence of self harm.
• Improve social skill.
• Better functioning in unfamiliar situation.
8. Cont..
• It is a short duration therapy. The total
duration of therapy is 6-8 weeks.
• Therapies are easy to train and is cost
effective.
9. Limitations of behavior therapy
• Behavior therapy may change the behavior
but does not change the feelings.
• Behavior therapy ignores the important
relational factors in therapy.
• It does not provide insight.
• Treats symptoms rather than causes.
• Involves control and manipulation by
therapist.
14. Systemic desensitization
• It was developed by Joseph Wolpe. In this
patient attain a state of complete relaxation
and are then exposed to the stimulus that
elicits the anxiety response.
• It consists of 3 main steps
1) relaxation training
2) hierarchy construction
3)desensitization of the stimulus
16. Hierarchy construction
In such technique the patient is asked to list out
all the conditions or stimulus that provoke the
fear and anxiety and make its hierarchy from
higher provoking to least provoking factors
and the sensitization is done accordingly.
17. Desensitization of the stimulus
This can either be done in reality or in
imagination. First of all the lower item in
hierarchy is confronted.
In this technique the patient is able to control
his anxiety gradually.
Example of this technique done for the fear of
lizard.
18. Cont…
• Looking at a picture of lizard.
• Looking at a real lizard in a jar.
• Holding the jar.
• Touching a small or dead lizard.
• Touching a real and large lizard.
19. Flooding or Implosion Therapy
It is an alternative way of treating the phobic
disorder by exposing the anxiety provoking
stimulus in full intensity, not gradually. It is
repeated until the client no longer feels
anxious.
Eg. Fear of lizard treated by putting rubberized
lizard suddenly on the table. For a minute the
patient may get scared but gradually may start
handling a rubberized lizard while talking.
20. Aversion Therapy/Classical
Conditioning procedure
Aversion therapy is used for treatment of conditions
which are pleasant but undesirable, e.g. alcohol
dependence homosexuality, nail biting, and other
sexual deviations. In this the patient is
conditioned to avoid an undesirable behavior or
symptoms by associating them with painful or
unpleasant experiences. Eg. Putting bitter taste
on nails for nail biting, giving drugs like disulfiram
which cause nausea and vomiting on taking
alcohol. Etc.
21. Operant Conditioning Procedure for
Increasing Adaptive Behavior
Positive reinforcement
When the behavioral response is followed by a
generally rewarding event such as food ,
praise or gift. It tends to strengthen the
adaptive behavior before rewarding.
22. Cont..
Token economy
This program includes giving token rewards for
appropriate or desired target behaviors
performed by the patient. The token can later
be exchanged for other rewards which they
purchase luxury items or certain privileges.
23. Operant conditioning procedure for
decreasing the maladaptive behavior
• Ignoring
• Punishment
• Timeout
• Restitution or over correction
• Response cost
24. Operant conditioning behavior to
teach new behavior
• Modeling
This is the method of teaching by demonstration . Where, the
therapist show how a specific behavior is performed. The
patient learns the model behavior from others.
• Shaping
In shaping the components of a particular behavior is
reinforced step by step. Eg. To establish eye to eye contact,
the therapist sits opposite of the client and reinforces him
even if he moves his upper body parts towards him. Once
this is established, he reinforces the person’s head
movement in his direction and this procedure is continued
till eye to eye contact is established.
25. Cont…
• Chaining
Chaining is used when the person fails to
perform a complex task, the complex task is
broken into the small steps and each step is
taught to the patient.
This is most effective training for mentally
disabled person.
26. Assertiveness or social skill therapy
• Assertiveness training is a behavior therapy
technique in which the patient is given
training to bring about change in emotional
and other behavior pattern by being assertive.
Patient is encouraged not to be afraid of
showing an appropriate response, negative or
positive to an idea or suggestion.
• Social skill training helps to improve social
manners like encouraging eye contact,
speaking appropriately and relating to people.
27. Role of Nurse in Behavior Therapy
The nurse plays role in behavior therapy according
to different techniques chosen by
psychotherapist and client parties.
The main role of nurse is to ease the therapy
There are some vital roles that nurse plays before
during and after procedure of behavior therapy.
Nurses role before therapy
• The nurses role is primarily facilitator, provide a
safe, comfortable environment for the therapy.
28. Cont…
• Select the correct patient.
• Maintain good rapport with patient.
• Collect necessary information regarding
clients.
• Assess degree of maladaptive behavior.
• Obtain verbal informed consent for therapy.
• Explain about the time duration or process of
therapy to the patient parties.
29. During procedure
• Make patient to sit in comfortable position.
• Encourage the patient to explore the feelings and emotion.
• Check the judgment and insight of the patient.
• Encourage the patient to perform activities in correct
manner.
• Provide reward for desired target behavior.
• Encourage the patient to be relaxed in any situation over
the period of the therapy.
• In this phase, the nurse acts as an assistant, an observer, a
motivator, a teacher, a listener, collaborator, and a well
wisher for the desire behavior of the patient.
30. After procedure
• Make patient comfortable.
• Record and report the outcome of therapy.
• Advice the patient about next date and time
of therapy if needed.
