To stay healthy, people should eat a balanced diet, drink water, exercise regularly, get enough sleep, maintain a work-life balance, and avoid stress and unhealthy behaviors like smoking. When sick, it's important to see a doctor who will examine the patient, diagnose the issue, and prescribe treatment. Serious illnesses may require hospitalization. In emergencies like car accidents, bystanders should provide first aid by stopping bleeding, checking for injuries, calling for help, and not moving victims.
Doctor
The document discusses the process required to become a doctor. It notes that becoming a doctor requires a lot of schooling, including passing high school with science courses, then studying for 5-6 years in university before becoming a doctor. It further explains that the full process takes at least 11 years, including 4 years of college, 4 years of medical school, and 3 years working in a hospital, or up to 8 years working in a hospital for some specialties.
medical careers
This document provides information about various medical careers including psychiatrists, cardiologists, and obstetricians. It notes that psychiatrists treat mental disorders through psychotherapy and medication, and it takes 12 years to become a board certified psychiatrist. Cardiologists diagnose and treat heart conditions and do not perform surgery. Becoming a cardiologist involves specific science classes and medical training.

The document also discusses primary care doctors, specialty doctors, salaries, pros and cons of being a doctor, and skills and education needed to become a doctor.
Veterinary slideshow (presentation of career)
Rachel Schott wants to become a veterinarian because she loves animals and wants to save their lives. To become a veterinarian requires obtaining a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree after completing 2-4 years of undergraduate education. Veterinarians work either in private practices treating small animals like dogs and cats indoors, or in mobile clinics treating large animals like horses outdoors. The career outlook for veterinarians is strong with expected job growth and higher earnings potential for those with advanced specializations.
The art of becoming a doctor
The document discusses the qualities and responsibilities of being a doctor. It emphasizes that being a doctor is more than just a career - it is a calling that requires strong character, ethics, and commitment to serving others above oneself. It outlines several key qualifications doctors must have, including a sense of responsibility, high ethical values, knowledge, skills, professionalism, and humility. Doctors are dealing with people's lives, so their work demands the utmost care, respect, and dedication. While the path of a doctor can be challenging, with stresses and potential lack of appreciation, finding satisfaction from within and serving others is most important. Medicine should be "lived", not just learned, with excellence as the goal.

How to get the best medical care - for less ! Dr Malpani
This document provides tips for maintaining good health and preventing illness. It emphasizes that adopting a healthy lifestyle can help avoid needing medical care. While doctors are good at treating illness, they know less about wellness. Traditional wisdom and practices like yoga and Ayurveda can help tap into the body's innate ability to heal itself.

What is the PICU.pdf
What is the PICU?
https://www.hitech-ly.com/blog/
The area of the hospital where unwell children receive the best possible medical attention is called the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). Other areas of the hospital, such as the general medical floors, are different from it. Children get careful monitoring of their heart rate, respiration, and blood pressure as well as extensive nurse care in the PICU.
Additionally, the PICU enables medical personnel to administer treatments that would not be offered in other areas of the hospital. Breathing equipment (ventilators) and medications that should only be used under careful medical supervision can be examples of these.

When Kids Leave the PICU
Who’s sent to the PICU?
Children who require intense care and have urgent medical demands that cannot be fulfilled on the hospital’s main medical floors are admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). This can include children who have severe asthmatic breathing issues, life-threatening illnesses, certain diabetic complications, or who have been in terrible car accidents or have come dangerously close to drowning.
When children grow more seriously unwell, they may occasionally be transferred from the medical-surgical floors of the hospital to the PICU. Many kids get treatment in the PICU for several days following major surgery.
The state of the child determines how long they remain in the PICU. While some would just remain for a day, others might stay for several weeks or even months. If you have any questions, as usual, ask the doctor or nurse who is attending to your kid.
Who Takes Care of Kids in the PICU?
Many highly trained individuals work in the PICU providing care for children. But at first, it might be difficult and a little daunting to not know who everyone is and what they do. Most personnel will make an introduction and explain their role in your child’s care. Feel free to inquire if they don’t. You should always feel free to ask the physicians and nurses anything about your kid and the care they are receiving.
The nurses who staff the PICU have expertise tending to the hospital’s sickest kids. They are the ones most intimately involved with the day-to-day upkeep of the children. In comparison to other areas of the hospital, the PICU frequently has a larger nurse-to-patient ratio (in other words, each nurse cares for fewer patients, which gives them more time with your child).
Your kid may get treatment from several doctors, but the attending doctors are in control. A pediatric intensivist could look after your youngster. This doctor completed a 3-year pediatric residency after completing medical school, and then underwent further 3-year intensive care specialist fellowship training.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
