CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.
Muktapishti is a traditional Ayurvedic preparation made from Shoditha Mukta (Purified Pearl), is believed to help regulate thyroid function and reduce symptoms of hyperthyroidism due to its cooling and balancing properties. Clinical evidence on its efficacy remains limited, necessitating further research to validate its therapeutic benefits.

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.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Issues for our vulnerable patients
Caroline Lecko
Patient Safety Lead
NHS Commissioning Board
3. Fundamental Principles – implications to
our vulnerable patients
• Nutritious and appetising hospital food and drink is an essential part of the
personal package of care and hospitals should take all reasonable steps to
ensure that patient have a healthy food experience
• All patients should be able to choose from a reasonably varied menu which
compliments their clinical care requirements whilst meeting their social and
religious needs
• All patients should have access at all times to fresh drinking water, unless this
is contraindicated by their clinical condition
• Access to food and drink outside planned mealtimes should be available where
appropriate
3
4. Who are our vulnerable patients?
• Chronic disease – COPD, cancer,
inflammatory bowel disease, GI,
renal or liver disease
• Chronic progressive disease –
dementia, neurological conditions
e.g. Parkinson’s disease, MND
• Acute illness – food unlikely to be
consumed for 5 days
• Debility – frailty, immobility, old
age
4
8. The Malnutrition Task Force
• Independent group of experts from health, social care and
local government united to address preventable
malnutrition in all settings
• Aim to reduce malnutrition in older people to optimise their
health, reduce unnecessary costs improve quality of later
life
• Developed best practice principles and guidance including
one for hospitals – the principles are
• Raise awareness of the issue, costs and benefits
• Working together –clinicians and caters
• Identify malnutrition
• Personalised care, support and treatment
• Monitor and evaluate impact and progress
• Visit www.malnutritiontaskforce.org.uk
Malnutrition Task Force
9. Francis Report
At Stafford some patients were left food and drink and offered
inadequate or no assistance in consuming it. Even water or
the means to drink it could be hard to come by.
The experiences at Stafford to which witnesses testified are by
no means unique in the NHS in England, as has been shown
by the Care Quality Commission dignity and nutrition reports
since.
Recommendation
241 Provision of food and drink
The arrangements and best practice for providing food and drink to elderly
patients require constant review, monitoring and implementation.

10. For those not familiar with Francis……..
“Swallowing was a problem for Irene and I had to give her Fortisips
with a syringe. I was just trying to make sure Irene was eating.
However at 5pm you had to go. This was meal time. I could not see
whether Irene was eating or not. One time I visited I saw a trolley
with a dinner on it at the foot of her bed, out of Irene’s reach. I asked
the lady next to her whose dinner it was. She told me it was [my
wife’s]. It had been left uncovered and was stone cold. I found a
nurse and asked her whose dinner it was; she told me it was Irene’s I
said “you’re joking, Irene can’t eat a dinner”. The nursing staff should
have known about [her] eating requirements.”

“the glasses on the ward, they were flimsy, they were the plastic glasses.
And mum’s eyesight was really, really bad, and anybody with bad eyesight
can’t pick the jug up and see where they’re pouring into they—by the time
you’ve picked that glass up you’ve crushed it, you know, its collapsed in
your hand.”
“… some of the people in there can’t even get out of bed; they can’t fill in
their own menu. You would find the food tray was 3 foot away from the
bed; they couldn’t get a drink. There was just nobody there. I remember a
conversation with one of the senior nurses who told me that she was on
her own and had 50 meals to serve. I’d have put an apron on myself and
gone and helped, that is what you felt you wanted to do.”
12. Going back to the principles - 1
• Nutritious and appetising hospital food and drink
is an essential part of the personal package of
care and hospitals should take all reasonable
steps to ensure that patient have a healthy food
experience
“Visits to hospitals indicated that there is a
heightened awareness of the need to get systems
in place to ensure proper nutrition and hydration for
all patients and a variety of local, frequently nurse-
inspired, initiatives were seen.”
12
13. Going back to the principles - 2
• All patients should be able to choose from a
reasonably varied menu which compliments their
clinical care requirements whilst meeting their
social and religious needs
• Do we really think about reasonably varied
menu’s for all?
13
14. Going back to the principles - 3
• All patients should have access at all times to
fresh drinking water, unless this is
contraindicated by their clinical condition
• Do we really think about what access means?
14
15. Going back to the principles - 4
• Access to food and drink outside planned
mealtimes should be available where appropriate
• Is accessible food really suitable for all?
15
16. Some other challenges to consider
• Meal times – who do they suit?
• Fit for purpose packaging!!!
