Fluid resuscitation is complex with choices between crystalloids and colloids. Initial resuscitation aims to restore normal blood pressure, heart rate and end-organ perfusion. Ongoing fluid needs are harder to determine as patients may appear "wet" but still be intravascularly depleted. Simple tests like passive leg raising can predict fluid responsiveness by assessing changes in blood pressure and flow. The optimal amount and type of fluid varies between patients and clinical contexts.
* Fluid resuscitation is mandatory in shock from traumatic haemorrhage * Massive use of resuscitative fluids following injury is now being disputed * Adequate resuscitation is no longer judged by presence of normal vital signs * Normalcy of organ and tissue specific measured values are to be achieved * Search for a single endpoint that works for all trauma patients, is unrealistic * Resuscitate with appropriate fluid, in appropriate amount, at appropriate time
its sometime difficult to decide in urgent clinical scenarios - Trauma,active bleeding, surgery: What ; when ; how and why to transfuse? answering some of these queries here is my presentation especially made for PG students (will help in answer writing)
ECMO CPR
ECMO in Cardiac arrest has increased exponentially in the past 10 years, on the back of, up until very recently, non-randomised, predominantly retrospective studies.
What is the efficacy?
Appropriate patient selection?
Cost effectiveness and model of delivery of ECPR?
Finally is ECMO really the intervention or just optimising the chain of survival?

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.

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!

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

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.

Outcomes were death, number of organ systems failures, time in ICU/hospital, times on mechanical ventilation and days of dialysis Finally, at least for critically ill patients, with the publication of the Saline versus Albumin Evaluation (SAFE) study, we have conclusive evidence that in the short-term albumin is at least as safe as saline for resuscitation [ 14 ]. This large, randomized clinical trial included a heterogeneous population of nearly 7000 critically ill patients requiring intravascular fluid resuscitation. The Australian and New Zealand Intensive Care Society Clinical Trials Group set out to determine the safety of fluid resuscitation with 0.9% normal saline versus 4% human albumin on a number of patient outcomes. There were no significant differences between the groups with respect to 28-day mortality, incidence of organ failure, intensive care unit or hospital length of stay, or duration of mechanical ventilation or renal replacement therapy. These results were achieved in the albumin arm with significantly less fluid administration, in a ratio of 1:1.4 (albumin versus normal saline) over the first 4 days. However, various subgroup analyses did reveal interesting results. There was a trend towards decreased mortality in septic shock patients treated with albumin (relative risk for death, 0.87; 95% CI, 0.74–1.02). Increased mortality in trauma patients (relative risk, 1.36; 95% CI, 0.99–1.86), especially those with traumatic brain injury (relative risk, 1.62; 95% CI, 1.12–2.34), was observed in the albumin treatment group. There was no overall benefit associated with albumin use in the SAFE trial, although albumin use in septic shock patients may confer a survival advantage. Despite this interesting trend, it is worth noting that recent guidelines from the Surviving Sepsis Campaign and numerous professional critical care organizations advocate the equivalence of initial fluid resuscitation with either crystalloids or colloids (natural or artificial) in septic patients [ 15 ]. The biologic plausibility of improved outcome with albumin in sepsis has been examined in various in vitro and animal models, but the physiologic basis of this effect in vivo is not known [ 2 ]. The increased risk of mortality among trauma patients in the SAFE trial confirms a similar finding from a previous systematic review, where trauma patients who received crystalloids had a lower mortality rate than those who received colloids [ 13 ]. Interpretation of results from subgroup analyses requires caution and confirmation from properly designed clinical trials.
