Introduction to epidemiology and it's measurementswrigveda
Epidemiology is defined as the study of the distribution and determinants of health-related states or events in specified populations. It has three main components - distribution, determinants, and frequency. Measurement of disease frequency involves quantifying disease occurrence and is a prerequisite for epidemiological investigation. Rates, ratios, and proportions are key tools used to measure disease frequency and distribution. Incidence rates measure new cases over time while prevalence rates measure existing cases. These measurements are essential for describing disease patterns, formulating hypotheses, and evaluating prevention programs.
IN THIS PRESENTATION I HAVE DESCRIBED ABOUT DOCTORS AND PATIENTS RELATIONSHIP . History of doctor-patient relationship. Models of doctor-patient relationship. Psychological types of doctors. Basic characters and skills of physician. Communication of doctors. Problems of contemporary healthcare system
The document discusses various concepts and dimensions of health. It defines health according to different perspectives such as medical professionals and organizations. Health is a complex, multidimensional concept involving physical, mental, social, and spiritual well-being. The World Health Organization defines health as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, not just the absence of disease. Other topics covered include components of health, determinants of health, concepts of disease, and indicators used to measure population health.

This document provides an introduction to ethics and bioethics. It discusses key concepts in ethics like different approaches to determining right and wrong (consequentialism, deontology, virtue ethics) and factors that influence ethical decisions. It then defines bioethics and introduces important bioethical principles like autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice. The relationship between ethics, law, and professional practice is also examined. The goal is to gain a basic understanding of ethics and how it applies to issues in healthcare.
The document discusses how the ancient Greeks addressed questions about how to live and the purpose of life. It introduces how the Greeks developed new forms of life like democracy, drama, and the Academy, as well as new forms of communication such as rhetoric, poetry, and philosophy. For Plato, living justly was the ultimate purpose and gave life meaning. Plato believed justice resulted from the harmonious union of the true, good, and beautiful. The document asks why Plato preferred philosophical discourse over rhetoric or poetry for bringing about justice.

This document summarizes a student group presentation on whether competition helped achieve the positive effects of privatization. It provides background on privatization and defines it as the transfer of assets from the public to private sector. Examples of privatization in the UK, Korea, and Malaysia are outlined. The UK example highlights the privatization of British Telecom and introduction of competition through other electric firms. Positive impacts of privatization in Korea and Malaysia included improved public transport and increased access to education and healthcare. The conclusion is that competition did help realize the economic and employment benefits of privatization.
The Health and Social Care Act (2012) paved the way for far-reaching reforms to how patient care in the English NHS is organised, managed and delivered. The changes were formally implemented on 1 April 2013.
This slideshow outlines the main changes to management, accountability and funding structures resulting from the Act.
The first slides show the old and new structure in overview, together with a slide detailing the transitional arrangement. Further slides compare the earlier arrangements that were in place for funding, regulation and monitoring, advice and performance management, and patient and public participation, with the new system at both the national and local level. The final slide outlines the new medical education and training arrangements.
You are welcome to download and use individual slides in your own presentations providing suitable acknowledgement is given.

The document discusses arguments around funding and privatization of the UK National Health Service (NHS). It notes that the NHS was created after WWII when the national debt was over double current levels. It questions why the NHS can't be afforded now despite the UK being wealthy. Critics argue funding cuts may be to pave the way for privatization. While the US spends more on healthcare, the UK NHS was ranked the best system by the Commonwealth Fund in 2014 despite lower spending per capita. However, UK health spending as a percentage of GDP is falling. Many NHS trusts are in deficit and some see underfunding as a path to more private involvement in the NHS against public wishes.

NHS finances: the challenge all policital parties need to face - charts and t...The Health Foundation
The document discusses NHS finances and the challenge of funding the NHS that all political parties must address. It provides historical data on UK public spending on health from 1949 to 2014, which shows spending increasing from 3.6% to 7.5% of GDP. The document also examines projections for NHS funding pressures, estimating a funding gap of £108 billion by 2030 if productivity does not increase. Maintaining productivity growth could reduce the gap but would require unprecedented long-term improvement. All parties will need to decide how best to fund growing demands on the healthcare system.
This document outlines the process for an NHS Health Check. It involves assessing patients aged 40-74 for risk factors like body mass index, ethnicity, alcohol use, smoking status, gender, physical activity, family history, age, and blood pressure. Based on the risk assessment, patients receive lifestyle advice, clinical assessment, and risk management which can include medication, referral to smoking cessation or weight management services, and follow up checks. Results are recorded in primary care records.
The Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) was introduced in 2004 as part of the new GP contract to incentivize and measure quality in primary care. It contains clinical, organizational, and patient experience indicators and practices are financially rewarded for meeting targets. While QOF improved quality initially, its effects have plateaued with average achievement over 90%. There are also concerns it does not optimally target the interventions that could most improve population health and that some gaming of the system occurs through exception reporting. Reforms are needed to make QOF more challenging and better aligned with local health priorities.

The document provides an overview of opening a new £432 million hospital building at North Bristol NHS Trust. It discusses the decade-long process of designing, building, and planning for the new facility. Key points include: the building was officially opened in May 2014 after months of moving 540 patients and installing over £12 million of equipment; lessons were learned around project and programme governance during the process; and a major change program called "Road to 2014" was implemented to design new models of clinical, workforce, equipment and administrative services for the new hospital.
The document discusses the concept of a welfare state and Britain's national healthcare system, the NHS. It explains that Britain adopted a welfare state model after WWII to provide basic services like healthcare for all citizens. The NHS was created in 1948 as part of this welfare system. It then discusses challenges like rising costs and an aging population that have led the government to manage spending, increase efficiency through privatization and personal responsibility, and focus on quality of service through various NHS improvement plans.

Medicine and the United States Governmenthuberannaj
The document provides a history of the involvement of the United States government in medicine and public health from 1798 to present day. It establishes several key agencies and developments, including the establishment of the Public Health Service in 1902, the creation of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare in 1953, and the National Institutes of Health in 1930 which is now located in Bethesda, Maryland and focuses on biomedical research. The National Library of Medicine, located within the NIH, is described as the world's largest medical library with over 9 million items and a focus on biomedical informatics.
The document discusses threats facing the UK's National Health Service (NHS) and proposes a new model to safeguard it for the next 50 years. Key points:
1) Constant political reforms have undermined the NHS without proper implementation plans or costing. A new NHS Statute Board is proposed to oversee the NHS as a long-term investment based on evidence and public experience.
2) A local levy and elected local NHS directors could boost local ownership and accountability.
3) The new model aims to uphold Aneurin Bevan's founding values of the NHS while creating a modern system through improved coordination, public participation, and focus on prevention over political ideology.
Health co-operatives conference, London 2005Geraint Day
This one-day conference on February 10, 2005 in London will bring together practitioners from the international health cooperative sector and speakers from the UK healthcare system. The event will focus on health cooperatives in Europe and worldwide, with presentations on models from countries like Canada, Russia, Spain, Sweden, and Belgium. Speakers will discuss lessons that can be applied to healthcare reform in the UK, where the government has begun decentralizing power to local communities and staff through NHS Foundation Trusts. The conference aims to highlight practical experiences of delivering cooperative healthcare internationally and early developments in the UK system.
Britain provides free healthcare through its National Health Service (NHS), funded by taxes. To manage costs, the government balances spending increases with tax increases and privatized some NHS services. The government also aims to increase efficiency and quality by reducing wait times, giving patients choices of providers, and making improvements based on feedback. However, assessing the NHS's effectiveness is difficult as views differ on how much it has improved over the years.

The NHS was established in 1948 by the 1945-51 British government to provide universal healthcare access, treating all medical problems freely at the point of use based on need rather than ability to pay. It aimed to eliminate disease by offering healthcare to all British citizens, over half of whom previously lacked medical coverage. While popular, the NHS also proved very expensive to run and faced initial shortages of hospital facilities and medical staff that limited treatment effectiveness and access.
This document analyzes policies surrounding access to cochlear implants through insurance coverage.

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.

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).

In this document , a brief outline of osteoporosis is given , including the risk factors of osteoporosis fractures , the indications for testing bone mineral density and the management of osteoporosis
2. Following World War II,
the elected Labour
government went to
work implementing a
plan to create new ways
to care for Britain's
people. After three
years of work, and
cooperation across the
political spectrum, the
NHS was officially
started on 5 July 1948
with the opening of the
Park Hospital in
Manchester.

3. Decades of Care
Staff across the NHS are in
contact with more than 1.5
million patients and their
families every day
Each month, 23 million
people (almost three times
the population of London)
visit their GP surgery or
practice nurse.
Both men and women
live an average of 10
years longer than they
did before the creation
of the NHS in 1948.
4. 1948 through 1957
The three main developments
that affected the treatment of
hearing loss were the use of
antibiotics, the advent of
improved anaesthesia, and the
creation of a new microscope
that allowed for more precise
surgical techniques.
The NHS also began to advocate the use of hearing aids in their early years. A model created
by Medresco was used regularly by the service. Created in Dollis Hill by a very early version of
British Telecom, these devices were offered by the NHS up until the 1970s. The device used a
radio transmitter for sound amplification.

5. 1958 through 1967
Moving into the 1960s,
hearing care took a course
to predictive and
preventative care, and the
NHS was an active leader
in trying to minimise the
negative effects of hearing
loss. During this time,
routine hearing tests for
children were introduced in
mass.
Preventative Hearing
Care
6. 1968 through 1977
New Technology Changes
the Hearing Aid
During the 1970s, the use of an electret/FET microphone was introduced. The innovation played
an important role in every hearing aid. With the development of this technology, it meant that the
device’s receiver and mic could be kept together. That allowed for the development of behind-
the-ear, in-the-ear, and inside-the-canal hearing aids.
7. It was during the 1980s that doctors
had the ability to improve hearing
impairment due to structural problems
with the bones in the middle ear. But
despite advancements in surgical
techniques, there was still no medical
cure or surgical process to solve
sensorineural deafness. And, despite
similar advancements in hearing aid
technology, there was no effective
method for the amplification of sound
for the deaf.
A Search for a Cure 1978 through 1987
8. In March 1989, a doctor from
University College Hospital in
London took one of his patients to
meet MPs at the House of
Commons. Based on those
meetings, the Minister of Health
was able to secure £3 million to
establish six cochlear implant
centres. By 1996, 800 adults and
600 children had been implanted
in a continuing programme to help
people hear.

A Modern Approach to
Sensorineural Deafness
9. Hearing Care, the NHS and
the 21st Century
There are more than 10
million people in the UK
with some form of hearing
loss, or one in
six of the population.
From the total figure,
around 6.4 million are of
retirement age (65+)
and about 3.7 million are of
working age (16 – 64).
The NHS continues to be
dedicated to providing the
best in treatment,
preventative care, and
impairment solutions.
10. Budget Challenges
Today, a new ‘Action Plan on Hearing
Loss’ to support services for deaf people
and those with diminishing hearing has
been produced.
The report identifies multiple health and
social issues associated with hearing
loss. It recommends ways that services
for children, young people, working age
and older adults living with hearing loss
can be improved.
The direct cost to the NHS of managing hearing loss is estimated to be up to £450 million a year.
Despite some on-going budgetary woes through the health service, the NHS’s Clinical
Commissioning Groups will continue to decide what is commissioned locally to address local
hearing needs.
