Shared decision making is a process where patients are active partners with clinicians in making healthcare decisions. It is appropriate when there are multiple treatment options and can help patients better manage long-term conditions. Patients want more involvement in their care and choice of treatments. However, shared decision making is not widely practiced. Using decision aids and support can help patients make informed choices that align with their values and preferences, while reducing unnecessary treatment. The NHS aims to make shared decision making the norm so that no decision is made about a patient without their input.

The goals are to reduce mortality and morbidity through services like antenatal care, safe delivery practices, postpartum care, immunizations, and monitoring of child growth and development. Community health nurses play a key role in providing direct clinical care, health education, and managing MCH programs. Assessment of MCH programs is done using indicators such as maternal mortality rate, infant mortality rate, and under-five mortality rate.
We suddenly live in a strange and wonderful nexus of digital and physical. Touchscreens let us hold information in our hands, and we touch, stretch, crumple, drag, and flick data itself. Our sensor-packed phones even reach beyond the screen to interact directly with the world around us. While these digital interfaces are becoming physical, the physical world is becoming digital, too. Objects, places, and even our bodies are lighting up with with sensors and connectivity. We’re not just clicking links anymore; we’re creating physical interfaces to digital systems. This requires new perspective and technique for web and product designers. The good news: it’s all within your reach. With a rich trove of examples, Designing for Touch author Josh Clark explores the practical, meaningful design opportunities for the web’s newly physical interfaces.

This document discusses family assessment in pediatric nursing. It states that comprehensive family assessment is important for developing an effective treatment plan and involves gathering information from multiple sources to understand what the family knows and can do to support the child's development. The nurse's role is to collect assessment data through observation and active listening when interacting with patients and families. Key areas of assessment include the family structure and environment, socioeconomic factors, educational background, and how the family functions. High quality assessments are child-centered, identify strengths as well as difficulties, and are ongoing rather than a single event. Barriers to assessment include balancing focus between the child and family relationships while avoiding bias. The document also provides examples of tools like genograms and ecomaps

Modern concepts of child care focus on family-centered care, high technology care, evidence-based practice, atraumatic care, cost containment, and prevention and health promotion. Family-centered care is a holistic approach that supports family integrity and the psychological and physiological health of the family. It enables and empowers family members to provide care for their ill children. High technology care allows for more advanced diagnostic capabilities from fetal development onward. Evidence-based practice ensures nurses make decisions based on the best available research evidence to improve patient outcomes. Atraumatic care aims to minimize psychological and physical distress for children and their families in healthcare settings. Cost containment techniques reduce hospitalization expenses. Prevention and health promotion apply health maintenance and developmentally

An outbreak of chikungunya virus has spread like an epidemic in the capital city this year, with doctors seeing many young patients suffering from acute joint pain wheelchair bound. While only a few labs can test for the virus, it is estimated that 80% of patients presenting with viral fever and joint pain symptoms at some hospitals have tested positive for chikungunya. The outbreak has been attributed to increased mosquito breeding due to heavy monsoon rains. Treatment involves painkillers, though paracetamol often provides little relief from the debilitating joint pain associated with the illness.
Your plastic water bottle could be as dirty as your toiletNursing Hi Nursing
Researchers tested four types of reusable water bottles and found that bottles that were used for a week without washing had more bacteria than a toilet seat. Specifically, the slide-top bottle had more bacteria than an average toilet seat, pet bowl, or kitchen sink. Over 60% of the bacteria found on the bottles could make people sick. The cleanest bottle type tested was the straw-top bottle, and researchers also found that stainless steel bottles were healthier options than plastic bottles.

The summary emphasizes that marijuana is harmful and can isolate users from society, and that treatment requires holistic social support.
Bill Gates says that genetically modified mosquitoes may be used to fight malaria within the next five years. Researchers are using a gene editing technique called a "gene drive" to alter mosquitoes so they are resistant to diseases like malaria and dengue. Gates believes this technology could dramatically reduce malaria deaths by suppressing mosquito populations. However, some scientists have raised concerns that unintended mutations in released mosquitoes could have unknown consequences.
A study from the University of Manchester found that frequent childhood moves, especially during early adolescence, are linked to higher risks of negative outcomes in adulthood such as suicide attempts, criminal violence, mental illness, substance abuse, and premature death. The researchers collected data on all people born in Denmark from 1971 to 1997, documenting every residential move from birth to age 14, and correlated subsequent adverse events in adulthood.
An international team of scientists reviewed 19 previous studies involving 68,000 elderly people and found no link between high cholesterol levels and heart disease in those over 60 years old. The study suggests that 92% of elderly people with high cholesterol lived as long or longer than those with low cholesterol. The authors call for a reevaluation of statin prescriptions for the elderly, but their findings have been criticized by other academics who question the research methods. Some experts say that as people age, many other factors impact health, making the effects of high cholesterol less clear.
India has seen a decline in childhood stunting but now faces rising issues with diabetes and being overweight. The number of diabetics in India is projected to increase to over 100 million in the next 15 years. While India has made progress against undernutrition, public health policies now need to also address the growing problems of overnutrition and diabetes. Non-communicable diseases like heart disease also place a large economic burden on Indian families.
Scientists have developed the world's first vaccine for Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS), a severe circulatory and organ failure caused by bacterial toxins from Staphylococcus bacteria. The vaccine was successfully tested in a Phase I trial. TSS, also known as "tampon disease", often affects young women using super absorbent tampons and was first described in the 1980s. This led to regulations on the absorbency of tampons.

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).
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
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.
