Negligence And Medical Ethics
Here I am trying to explain how Medical Negligence and Medical Ethics are interlinked and why doctors must do all they can to defend our ethics. I am sharing case history, every day clinical examinations and management of common illness to explain why they are unethical medical practice.
Since I published a letter in 1996, critisising the use of preprinted assessment sheet, allowing nurses to work like doctors in the NHS(UK), the number of deaths, complications and wrong doings has escalated to catastrophic proportions. Doctors who continue to work are suffering in silence. The ones who raised concern were systamatically harassed, bullied and ostracised.
The institutions, associations, nursing council and the Royal Colleges and the WMA have ignored their duty to protect fellow human. I do not think we can claim to be members of a "Noble Profession" if we allow this un-ethical medical practice continues.
The General Medical Has not only ignored their duty to protect fellow human but also discriminated doctors passing out from Non-European medical schools by allowing nurses to work like doctors. This institution has failed to define the word "Doctor" and has inflicted pain and suffering to doctors who defend their moral and ethical duty.
Our profession and our lives are threatened by emerging and antibiotic resistant infections. We must join hands and defend our profession. By allowing nurses with no medical school training or skill to clinically examine patients to diagnose and prescribe drugs, we have failed to protect fellow human who trust our profession. This is substandard, un-ethical medical practice that has brought us shame must be stopped.
Please leave your comments and criticise me if I am wrong. As a Hindu Brahmin, it is my religious duty to defend "Dharma", protect the sick and vulnerable. Please watch this presentation and ask your self have you fulfilled your promise and are you defending your faith?

Medical Ethics why we need it by Dr.T.V.Rao MD

DECLARATION OF HELSINKI
The Declaration of Helsinki is a set of ethical principles and guidelines for medical research involving human subjects. It was first adopted by the World Medical Association (WMA) in 1964 and has been revised multiple times, with the most recent version released in 2013. The Declaration provides a framework to protect the rights, safety, and well-being of individuals participating in research studies. Here are the key elements of the Declaration of Helsinki:
Respect for Autonomy and Informed Consent: The Declaration emphasizes the importance of respecting the autonomy of individuals and their right to make informed decisions about participating in research. It requires researchers to obtain informed consent from participants or their legally authorized representatives, ensuring they have been adequately informed about the study's purpose, procedures, potential risks and benefits, and their right to withdraw at any time.
Beneficence and Risk Assessment: Researchers have a responsibility to maximize potential benefits and minimize potential harm to research participants. The Declaration states that research protocols should be based on a thorough scientific assessment of risks and benefits and should prioritize the well-being of participants.
Ethical Review and Approval: The Declaration highlights the necessity of independent ethical review of research protocols by an appropriate research ethics committee or institutional review board (IRB). The committee should ensure that the study is scientifically valid, ethically sound, and compliant with relevant regulations and guidelines.
Privacy and Confidentiality: The Declaration emphasizes the importance of protecting the privacy and confidentiality of research participants. Researchers should ensure that participants' personal information is kept confidential, and data should be anonymized or pseudonymized whenever possible to protect participant identities.
Data and Safety Monitoring: The Declaration emphasizes the importance of ongoing data monitoring and safety assessments during the research study. Researchers should have plans in place to detect and manage any adverse events or unanticipated risks that may arise during the study.
Vulnerable Populations: Special protections are outlined for vulnerable populations, such as children, pregnant women, prisoners, and individuals with impaired decision-making capacity. Researchers should take extra precautions to ensure their well-being, and their involvement in research should be justified based on the potential benefits to their own population.
Publication and Dissemination of Results: The Declaration emphasizes the responsibility of researchers to publish and share the results of their research in a timely manner.

Notes of Shape and Size of RBCs, Structure of RBCs, Life Cycle of RBCs, Funct...
Red Blood Cells (RBCs) possess unique attributes essential for their function in the circulatory system. Their distinctive biconcave shape maximizes surface area for efficient gas exchange. Structurally, mature RBCs lack a nucleus, making room for hemoglobin, a molecule vital for oxygen and carbon dioxide transport. These cells undergo a lifecycle that lasts about 120 days, originating from the bone marrow and eventually being removed by the spleen. Their primary role involves ferrying oxygen to body tissues and removing carbon dioxide. Additionally, changes in RBC size, shape, or hemoglobin content can signify various medical conditions, and there are specific disorders, like anemia or sickle cell disease, that directly impact RBCs.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
