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!
2. Use of Fiberoptic Endoscope
Direct visualization of GIT
Taking photographs
Cytological specimens
Taking biopsies
Undertaking therapeutic procedures
3. Indications for biopsies :
Small intestine :
1.To know the nature of duodenal ulcer
2. To detect peri-ampullary carcinoma
3. To look for parasites [giardia ,
strongyloides ]
4. Malabsorption study
5. Lymphoproliferative disorders –IPSID &
lymphomas
4. Indication for biopsies :
Colo –rectal :
1. Differetiate bet different types of colities
2. Diagnose IBD –UC ,Crohn”s disease , etc.
3. Monitor pt of UC & detect dysplasia or
malignant change
4. Detect the nature polyp & identify early
malignant change
5. To differentiate Ca from Solitary rectal ulcer
6. Detect amyloidosis
5. Contraindication for biopsies :
Never performed in uncooperative pt
Without informed consent
H/o bleeding disorders
H/o acute perforation

Best to use a forcep with central spike to
fix the instrument on mucosa
Other techniques for full thickness bx
specimen –FNAB thr endoscope ,snare
bx technique-electrocoagulation
8. Gastrointestinal Bx processing
for Light microscopy :
Essential pre-requisite for HP evaluation
Careful handling
Proper orientation –1. Magnifying lens
2. Orienting mucosal surface upward –by mounting bx on Filter
paper/ wire mesh/ plastic mesh/ frosted glass/ vegetable
matrix[ cucumber slice]/ gelfoam,etc.even casette top
Fixation –10% buffered formalin for 2-3 hr .bouin’s fluid or
halland’s sol.
Automatic tissue processor or by hand processing in short
cycles
Ascending grades of alcohol -30 mins each
Xylol*3 -30 mins each
Paraffin bath *2 -60 min each
Orientation is imp while making the paraffin block
Step sections at 3-4 level
9. Interpretation of Biopsies :
It requires good communication bet
endoscopist & pathologist .
REAL CHALLEHGE : as Bx is very
SMALL
Pathologist must know :clinical history,
physical findings, result of radiographic & lab studies ,
ind. For scopy, endoscopic findings & site of Bx,etc
So complete scopy report with Bx is necessory.
10. Interpretation of Jejunal Bx :
Imp step in

MALABSORPTION.

Grade 1 :villi finger or leaf like
Grade 2 :leaflike with fusion to form
small ridges or convolutions
Grade 3 :lost with flattening of mucosa
grade 1 & 2 villi –normal individuals in
India
12. Patterns of Abnormal SI
Mucosa :
Severe villous abnormality :flat mucosa , no
villi :villous atrophy
Variable villous abnormality : villi focally flat or
mild to mod villous shortening
Crypt hyperplasia or hypoplasia
Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes : non
specific or with features that suggest sp
diagnosis ie. Numerous eosinophils,
granulomas, parasites .
16. SI bx
Non specific variable villus abn. , usually not
flat
1. Changes ass. With DH
2. Tropical sprue
3. Infections
4. Mastocytosis
5. Autoimmune enteropathy
30. Why to bother to make DD -
Majority of cases of diarrhea are self
limited or acute inf.-thus NOT to
mislable them as IBD ,CD or UC
Surgical therapeutic procedure
interventions can differ in CD & UC
