It emphasizes the importance of properly organizing the clinical approach and establishing good patient-doctor rapport when obtaining a patient's history.
Documentation and reporting
Documentation and reporting in healthcare involves recording information in patient records and communicating information to other healthcare providers. Patient records contain key identifying and clinical information to provide an accurate record of a patient's care over time. Records are used for communication between providers, planning care, quality assurance, research, education, reimbursement, and legal documentation. Effective documentation and reporting requires following guidelines such as recording factual, dated, legible, permanent, unambiguous information in the proper sequence and manner according to healthcare organization policies.

Chemo2
This document provides guidance on factors necessary for effective patient and family education regarding chemotherapy treatment. It outlines goals for education, including describing the treatment protocol, potential side effects, self-care measures, and symptoms that should be reported. It also discusses educating caregivers on managing side effects through nonpharmacological strategies and skills training. The document concludes with recommendations for documentation prior to starting a new chemotherapy regimen.
Nursing Documentation
Nursing documentation is important for several reasons:
1) It helps communicate between the healthcare team and prevents fragmentation, repetition, and delays in patient care.
2) Nursing documentation is used to establish nursing care plans and for auditing, research, education, and reimbursement purposes.
3) Documentation provides a comprehensive view of the patient's condition and treatment and can be used as legal evidence in court cases.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Ketone bodies and metabolism-biochemistry

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

Importance and benefits of taking case history • The emphasis on taking patients' medical history is not only useful for the dentist to use the relevant information to treat the disease, but also emphasizes that before any treatment, the dentist must obtain the necessary information about the following two questions: • A. What risks may the dentist face from the patient’s side? • B. What risks may the patient face from the dentist’s side? • It is noteworthy that the maximum value of patient’s history to determine the diagnosis depends on the constructive communication between the dentist and the patient, so a hasty approach without patience will provide no complete history • So taking a thorough and complete medical history, as an important task and professional competence of a dentist, can be important and beneficial to prevent and resolve numerous issues of the patient and physician.
