Bladder exstrophy is a congenital (present at birth) abnormality of the bladder. It happens when the skin over the lower abdominal wall (bottom part of the tummy) does not form properly, so the bladder is open and exposed on the outside of the abdomen. In epispadias, the urethra does not form properly.
Hypospadias is a relatively rare congenital condition where the opening of the penis is on the underside of the organ. This condition is more common in infants with a family history of hypospadias.
The penis may curve down in an infant and the baby may spray while urinating.

PYLORIC STENOSIS
Pyloric stenosis is a medical condition in which the pylorus, the muscular valve between the stomach and the small intestine, becomes abnormally narrowed or obstructed, leading to the obstruction of the gastric outlet. This narrowing of the pylorus prevents the proper passage of food from the stomach to the small intestine.
The exact cause of pyloric stenosis is still unknown, but it is believed to have a multifactorial etiology.
Genetic factors are thought to play a role, as there is a higher incidence of pyloric stenosis among siblings and family members.
Environmental factors may also contribute to the development of the condition, but specific triggers remain unidentified.
The hallmark symptom of pyloric stenosis is projectile vomiting, which occurs shortly after feeding.
Vomitus is often non-bilious and may resemble curdled milk.
Forceful vomiting that may project several feet away from the infant.
Signs of hunger and irritability despite frequent feeding attempts.
Weight loss or poor weight gain.
Dehydration and electrolyte imbalances due to excessive vomiting.
Palpable “olive-shaped” mass in the epigastric region.
Infants appear hungry, irritable, and unsatisfied after feeds.
Physical Examination:
Palpation of the abdomen may reveal a palpable “olive-shaped” mass in the epigastric region, which represents the hypertrophied pylorus.
The “olive” can often be felt when the infant is in a relaxed state and the stomach is empty.
Abdominal Ultrasound:
Abdominal ultrasound is the primary diagnostic tool for confirming pyloric stenosis.
Fluid and Electrolyte Management:
Prior to surgery, infants with pyloric stenosis often require fluid resuscitation and correction of electrolyte imbalances caused by excessive vomiting.
Intravenous hydration and electrolyte replacement may be necessary to restore the infant’s fluid and electrolyte balance.
Atropine Therapy:
In some cases, medical management with intravenous atropine may be attempted as a temporary measure to relieve pyloric spasm and improve the passage of food.
Surgical management of pyloric stenosis involves performing a pyloromyotomy.
This procedure is typically done under general anaesthesia and can be performed as an open surgery or laparoscopically.
Postoperative Nursing Care:
Monitor vital signs, surgical site, and signs of infection, such as fever, redness, swelling, or discharge.
Administer prescribed pain medications and antibiotics.
Observe for complications, such as bleeding or infection, and report any abnormalities to the healthcare team.
Encourage early feeding and monitor for successful feeding tolerance, ensuring the infant is retaining and digesting food properly.
Educate parents about postoperative care, including incision care, feeding techniques, and signs of potential complications, emphasizing the importance of follow-up visits and ongoing care.
A developmental anomaly is a broad term used to define conditions which are present at conception or occur before the end of pregnancy. In the case of cerebral palsy, a small number also occur after birth. this is also a birth defect.
A Tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) is an abnormal connection (fistula) between the Oesophagus and the trachea. TEF is a common congenital abnormality.
Oesophageal atresia is failure of oesophagus to form a continuous passage from the pharynx to the stomach
TEF is an abnormal connection between the trachea and the oesophagus
A Tracheoesophageal fistula is a congenital disease. It is a acquired communication between the trachea and esophagus. Most of the patient with TEF are diagnosed immediately following after birth.TEF are often associated with life threatening complications.
Obstetric fistula is an abnormal opening between the reproductive tract (usually the vagina) and the urinary tract (frequently the bladder) or alimentary tract (usually the rectum) or both. Obstetric fistula typically develops after several days of prolonged or obstructed labour.
Hypospadias is a relatively rare congenital condition where the opening of the penis is on the underside of the organ. This condition is more common in infants with a family history of hypospadias.

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
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!
Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility...Sujoy Dasgupta
Dr Sujoy Dasgupta presented the study on "Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility? – The unexplored stories of non-consummation" in the 13th Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE 2024) at Manila on 24 May, 2024.
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.

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
2. INTRODUCTION:
Exstrophy of bladder usually associated
with numbers of congenital anomalies,
related to urogenital tract, Musculo-
skeletal system and sometimes of GI
system.
Male children are more commonly
affected.
3. Contd.
It is also termed as ‘ectopic vesicae’ i.e. malposition or
displacement of urinary bladder from its normal position
in the pelvis.
Exstrophy of bladder is a congenital malformation in
which the lower portion of the abdominal wall and the
anterior wall of the bladder are missing, so that the
bladder is everted through the opening and may found on
the lower abdomen just above the symphysis pubis, with
continuous passage of urine to the outside.
4. DEFINITION:
• Exstrophy means ‘turned inside out’. Bladder exstrophy is a
congenital (present at birth) abnormality of the bladder. It
happens when the skin over the lower abdominal wall
(bottom part of the tummy) does not form properly, so the
bladder is open and exposed on the outside of the
abdomen.
5. INCIDENCE:
•The birth prevalence of classic bladder exstrophy has
been estimated to be between 1 in 10,000 and 1 in
50,000 livebirths. Males are affected 2-3 times more
often than females.
11. CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS:
• Exposed bladder from the abdomen
• Flattened puborectal sling
• Pubis symphysis separated
• Ulcer in the bladder mucosa
• Dribbling of urine
• Skin excoriation
12. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY:
Due to an unknown etiology/birth defect
Cloacal membrane bursts
Abdominal muscle not formed fully
Urorectal septum separate the bladder from bowel and intestine
The bladder from the inside pokes outside the belly
Exstrophy of bladder
15. SURGICAL MANAGEMENT
• MSRE – Modern Staged Repair of
Exstrophy
• CPRE – Complete Primary Repair of
Exstrophy
16. Supportive Nursing care
Preoperative period:
• Protection of bladder area from infections and trauma.
• Avoid irritating clothing and linen over the exposed bladder
• Positioning the infant and back or side
• Humidifying the exposed bladder by covering with wet gauze
• Maintaining aseptic precautions and general hygiene measures along with other
routine care.
• Preparation of parents and child for planned reconstructive surgery
17. Postoperative period:
• Close monitoring of child condition, vitals signs, features of infection
• Maintaining intake output.
• Care of urinary catheter
• Maintaining urinary catheter position, drainage
• Maintain aseptic precaution during procedure.
• Instruct mother for necessary precautions related to urinary catheter
dislodgement or leakage, prevention of infections.
• Necessary information and demonstration to parents regarding home –based
care
18. NURSING DIAGNOSIS:
DAY-1 : PRE OPERATIVE DAY
• Impaired body image related to exstrophy of bladder as
evidenced by baby’s mother’s verbalization.
• Fluid volume deficit related to constant urine dribbling as
evidenced by dry skin.
• Risk for infection related to exposed bladder.
19. DAY-2 : OPERATIVE DAY
• Interrupted family process related to chronic illness and surgery
as evidenced by patient’s mother’s verbalization.
• Impaired nutrition less than body requirement related to NPM as
evidenced by mother’s verbalization.
• Incomplete preoperative preparation related to unable to
maintain by mother secondary to stress for operation as
evidenced by poor hygiene
20. POST OPERATIVE DAY 1
• Pain related to surgical incision as evidenced by irritable cry,
mother’s verbalization and unable to take breastmilk.
• Respiratory distress related to pain as evidenced by respiratory
rate 50 b/m.
• High risk for bleeding from the surgical site related to surgery in
bladder.
• High risk for impaired fluid balance related to surgery in bladder.
23. HEALTHEDUCATION:
• To keep the bladder area clean and dry.
• Covering the bladder with sterile petroleum gauze to prevent infection and
ulceration of mucosa.
• Preventing diaper from adhering to the area.
• Frequently changing the diaper for comfort and to prevent constant bad odour of
urine.
24. PROGNOSIS:
• After reconstructive surgery of the bladder, continence rates of about 80%
are expected during childhood. Though spontaneous voiding is the main
issue, additional surgery might be needed to optimize bladder storage and
emptying function. In cases of definite reconstruction failure, urinary
diversion should be undertaken. In puberty, genital and reproductive
function constitute increasingly important issues for both sexes.
Psychosocial and psychosexual outcome reflect the importance of long-
term care (from birth into adulthood) from a multidisciplinary team of
experts for parents and children which facilitate an adequate quality of life.

27. CONCLUSION:
• A carefully planned surgical reconstruction for bladder
exstrophy can lead to satisfactory long-term urinary
continence in most patients. Factors contributing to
successful results include early bladder closure, pelvic
osteotomy, adequate bladder neck reconstruction with
bladder neck suspension in girls, and a motivated child and
family. Ultimate predictors of outcome in bladder exstrophy
repair are difficult to ascertain.
