Changing Guidelines of CPR & BLS For General Dental Practitioners & O...DrKamini Dadsena
The tolerance of the heart to anoxia is relatively high, but the central nervous system will show irreversible lesions if anoxia lasts for more than 3–4 min.
Though unusual, there are reports of deaths due to CPA in dental offices during dental treatment.
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is a vital skill which must be mastered by all health care professionals.
Therefore the thorough knowledge of CPR and Basic Life Support is of utmost importance to the dentist.
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

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

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
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

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!
1. BASIC LIFE SUPPORT (BLS)
Dr. Amandeep Bijral
Medical Officer
Amandeep Hospital & Clinics
2. What is FIRST AID?
• First aid is the assistance given to any person
suffering a sudden illness or injury with care
provided to preserve life, prevent the
condition from worsening, and/or promote
recovery.
• It includes initial intervention in a serious
condition prior to professional medical help
being available, such as performing CPR while
awaiting an ambulance
3. AIMS of First Aid
PRESERVE LIFE
The overriding aim of all medical care, including first aid, is to save
lives and minimize the threat of death.
PREVENT HARM
It also sometimes called prevent the condition from worsening,
or danger of further injury.
It covers both external factors, such as moving a patient away from
any cause of harm, and applying first aid techniques to prevent
worsening of the condition, such as applying pressure to stop a
bleed becoming dangerous.
PROMOTE RECOVERY
It involves trying to start the recovery process from the illness or
injury, and in some cases might involve completing a treatment,
such as in the case of applying a plaster to a small wound.
4. When BLS is required?
In case of serious trauma like unresponsive
patients or the patients with inadequate
breathing and circulation will require BLS as
the immediate first aid.
Resuscitation
The emergency treatment to overcome such
situation
5. BLS includes
• Chest compressions
to make blood circulate round the body
• Airway management
removal of obstruction in the airway
• Breathing assistance
artificial breathing into the victim's lungs.
• Recovery Position
turning the victim onto his side.
6.
7. 1 •SCENE SAFETY
2 •CHECK RESPONSE
3 •SHOUT FOR HELP
4 •ACTIVATE EMERGENCY SERVICES
5 •START CPR
6 •RECOVERY POSITION
8. 1. SCENE SAFTEY
RESCUER should ensure his/her safety PRIOR to
enter the scene for patient’s resuscitation.
AVOID to perform CPR at road (traffic), in case
of fire, railway tracks etc.
1st step is to take the patient to safe place.
9. 2. CHECK RESPONSE
Gentle shoulder TAPING “Are you all right?”
If the victim responds leave & assess the victim’s body &
provide appropriate assistance.
If the victim doesn’t respond then PINCH victim’s EAR
LOBE (pinna of the external ear)
If patient not respond…………START preparing yourself for
resuscitation.
10. Contd…..
Victim/patient is assessed as:
Checking the PULSE(carotid/radial) fdor 10
seconds
Visible FBAO.
Head to toe examination.
Rising of victim/patient’s chest?
Injured or affected body part assessment
11. 3. SHOUT FOR HELP
A single can’t do the resuscitation all alone, so
you should shout for HELP
Untrained person can ring & activate the
emergency service provider to reach the scene
as soon as possible.
12. 4. ACTIVATE EMERGENCY SERVICES
• OUTSIDE the medical setup…….one should call
the ambulance service provider for medical
assistance
95929-95929
• INSIDE the medical setup………..we have a
CODE BLUE to get activated for help.
The victimized area staff should call at 530 &
activate the CODE BLUE to reach the scene
ASAP.
14. 5a CHEST COMPRESSIONS
Chest cavity is compressed to improvise
the functions of LUNGS & HEART which
are altered due to injury or illness.
Place the heel of dominate hand in the
centre of the chest cavity ( 2cms above
XIPHOID PROCESS -lower part of
sternum)
Place other hand over it & interlock the
fingers
Start compressing the chest by keeping
your elbows firm & exert pressure form
the shoulders to wrist & hand.
Chest should be compressed upto 1½ to
2 inches so that pressure should exert
over the internal organs.
100 compressions to be done in 1
minute.
15. 5b AIRWAY MANAGEMENT
• Airway management are a set of medical
procedures performed in order to prevent foreign
body airway obstruction (FBAO) and thus ensuring
an open pathway between a patient’s lungs and the
outside world. This is accomplished by clearing or
preventing obstructions of airways, often referred
to as CHOKING caused by the tongue, the airways
themselves, foreign bodies or materials from the
body itself, such as blood or stomach contents, the
latter resulting in aspiration.
18. 5bi Head tilt/ Chin lift
• The head-tilt/chin-lift is a procedure used to
prevent the obstruction in the upper airway.
• The maneuver is performed by tilting the head
backwards in unconscious patients, often by
applying pressure to the forehead and the chin.
• The maneuver is taught for first aid courses as the
standard way of clearing an airway.
• If cervical spine injury is a concern this manuever
is CONTRA-INDICATED.
19. 5bii Jaw Thrust
• The jaw-thrust maneuver is a procedure used to
prevent the obstruction in the upper airway.
• The jaw thrust maneuver is a technique used on
patients with a suspectedspinal injury and is used on
a supine patient.
• The maneuver is performed by placing the index and
middle fingers to physically push the posterior aspects
of the mandible upwards while their thumbs push
down on the chin to open the mouth.
• When the mandible is displaced forward, it pulls the
tongue forward and prevents it from obstructing the
entrance to the trachea.
20. 5biii Abdominal Thrust
• It is also called Heimlich maneuver,
term named after Dr. Henry Heimlich,
who first described it in 1974.
• Performing abdominal thrusts involves
a rescuer standing behind a patient
and using his or her hands to exert
pressure on the bottom of the
diaphragm.
• This compresses the lungs and exerts
pressure on any object lodged in the
trachea, hopefully expelling it.
• Due to the forceful nature of the
procedure, even when done correctly,
it can injure the person on whom it is
performed. Bruising to the abdomen is
highly likely and more serious injuries
can occur, including fracture of the ribs
or sternum..[13]
This maneuver is done for CHOKING.
5 abdominal thrusts can be given.
21. 5c BREATHING RESCUE
• Pinch the nose
• Take a normal breath
• Place lips over mouth
• OBSERVE the victim’s chest rising
• Take about 1 second
• Allow chest to fall
• Repeat
22.
23. Duration of CPR
1 cycle includes:
• 30 chest compressions & 2 breaths in adults
• 15 chest compressions & 2 breaths in child
• Continuous chest compressions with 8-10 rescue breaths in
hospitalized (intubated patient).
After every cycle the victim/patient should be reassessed.
Victim respond: STOP CPR & give recovery position
Victim doesn’t respond: A total of 5 cycles to be performed.
Death declaration to be given by doctors.
