Pain is Unwanted, unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage, it is usually a subjective experience.
Pain is classified by duration and etiology.
Pain is of two types
Acute pain
Chronic Pain
EML :Satisfy the priority healthcare needs of majority of the population.
WHO EML was recognised as important guiding document mainly for the public sector for the procurement, distribution, rational use and quality assurance of medicines.
The list is made with consideration to disease prevalence, efficacy, safety and comparative cost-effectiveness of the medicines.
Careful selection of a limited range of essential medicines results in a higher quality of care, better management of medicines and more cost-effective use of health resources.
Not considered on Sales turnover on the basis of volume.
National Pharmaceutical Pricing Policy(NPPP)2012, DPCO
Laws are rules of legal binding on all persons in a state or nation.
Ethics is related to attitude and morality.
3 pillars for laws and ethics
The appearance of the premises should reflect the professional character of Pharmacy
In Every Pharmacy there should be Q.P .(RPh)
Drugs and other ingredients should be purchased from reputed source.
A pharmacist should not make any attempt to capture the business of fellow competitor by offering unfair discounts
A pharmacist should not show any such emotion on his face
A Pharmacist is a link between medical professionals and public.
A pharmacist should provide efficient and reasonable comprehensive and pharmaceutical services through the medical store or pharmacy.
Malaria is curable if effective treatment is started early because delay in treatment may lead to serious consequences including death.
Prompt and effective treatment is also important for controlling the transmission of malaria.
A revised National Drug Policy on Malaria has been adopted by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Govt of India in 2010 and these guidelines have been prepared for healthcare personnel involved in the treatment of malaria.
Medication adherence usually refers to whether patients take their medications as prescribed (eg, twice daily), as well as whether they continue to take a prescribed medication. Medication nonadherence is a growing concern to clinicians, healthcare systems, and other stakeholders (eg, payers) because of mounting evidence that it is prevalent and associated with adverse outcomes and higher costs of care. To date, measurement of patient medication adherence and use of interventions to improve adherence are rare in routine clinical practice. The goals of the present report are to address
(1) different methods of measuring adherence,
(2) the prevalence of medication nonadherence,
(3) the association between nonadherence and outcomes,
(4) the reasons for nonadherence, and finally,
(5) interventions to improve medication adherence.
Hepatitis is a medical condition defined as the inflammation of the liver.
The condition is self-limiting, can progress to fibrosis and cirrhosis.
Hepatitis may occur with limited or no symptoms, but it often leads to jaundice, poor appetite and malaise.
Hepatitis is considered to be acute when it lasts less than six months and chronic when it persists longer.
Estrogen, progesterone and testosterone are principal gonadal hormones.
Estrogen and progesterone are produced by ovaries whereas testosterone is mainly formed by testes.
ESTROGENS
Natural estrogens include estradiol(principal and most potent estrogen),estrone and estriol(weakest).
Natural estrogens are ineffective orally due to extensive first pass metabolism.
Estrogens undergo enterohepatic circulation that is also responsible for hepatic adverse effects(hepatic adenoma and thromboembolism).
The menstrual cycle is a term used to describe monthly events that occur within a woman's body in preparation for the possibility of pregnancy.
Each month, an egg is released from an ovary in a process called ovulation.
At the same time, the lining of the uterus thickens, ready for pregnancy.
If fertilization does not take place, the lining of the uterus is shed in menstrual bleeding and the cycle starts over.
Constipation is difficult or infrequent passage of stool, hardness of stool, or a feeling of incomplete evacuation.
Many people incorrectly believe that daily defecation is necessary and complain of constipation if stools occur less frequently. Others are concerned with the appearance (size, shape, color) or consistency of stools. Sometimes the major complaint is dissatisfaction with the act of defecation or the sense of incomplete evacuation after defecation. Constipation is blamed for many complaints (abdominal pain, nausea, fatigue, anorexia) that are actually symptoms of an underlying problem (eg, irritable bowel syndrome [IBS], depression). Patients should not expect all symptoms to be relieved by a daily bowel movement, and measures to aid bowel habits should be used judiciously.
Obsessive-compulsive patients often feel the need to rid the body daily of “unclean” wastes. Such patients often spend excessive time on the toilet or become chronic users of cathartics.
Many of the symptoms and signs of menopause can be attributed to the cessation of the production of estrogen by the ovaries in the menopausal stage.
The most common complications that women face during menopause include vaginal dryness, soreness, dyspareunia, urinary frequency and urgency.
Mood changes are also common during menopause and in postmenopausal women.
Vasomotor instability can cause hot flushes, sweating and palpitations in menopausal women.
“Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways causing airflow obstruction and recurrent episodes of wheezing, breathlessness, chest tightness, and coughing ”.
There is a variable degree of airflow obstruction (related to bronchospasm, edema, and hypersecretion), bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR), and airway inflammation.
Dyspepsia is a sensation of pain or discomfort in the upper abdomen; it often is recurrent. It may be described as indigestion, gassiness, early satiety, postprandial fullness, gnawing, or burning.
Many patients have findings on testing (eg, duodenitis, motility disturbance, Helicobacter pylori gastritis, lactose deficiency, cholelithiasis) that correlate poorly with symptoms (ie, correction of the condition does not alleviate dyspepsia).
Typhoid fever is an infection caused by the bacterium Salmonella typhi.
Paratyphoid is an infection which is similar but has milder symptoms, which is caused by the bacterium Salmonella paratyphi.
The word communication has its roots in Latin and the word is ‘communicare’ meaning ‘to share’.
In French the word is ‘communis’ meaning ‘common’.
So, communication means to take what I have and make it common with you.
The causative agent of tuberculosis is Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Belonging to the Family Mycobacteriaceae.
The other strains that cause tuberculosis are
M. bovis
M. africanum
M. carnetti
M. microti etc
The morphological features of the bacteria are that it is a small, straight, slender rod shaped, non-motile, non-capsulated, non-spore forming, aerobic organism.
The presence of mycolic acids in the cell wall is a characteristic feature due to which the bacteria gets resistance towards various antibiotics and disinfectants, and escapes from the phagocytic mechanism of the host.
Assistance, assessments and interventions that can be performed for benefit of any person suffering from a sudden illness or injury to preserve his/her life, prevent the conditionfrom worsening, and/or promote recovery by an eyewitness or by the victim with minimal or no medical equipment is termed as First Aid.
First aid can be performed by the victim or byany individual near to the victim.
Medicines are of two types
Prescription and Non prescription medicines.
Schedule H gives out the list of medicines that can be dispensed only on a prescription.
A pharmacist or a Pharm.D student is eligible to give medicines for mild ailments, which are called as non prescription medicines.
A pharmacist should have thorough knowledge over ailments like nausea, vomiting, pain, fever, cold and cough, diarrhea, constipation, ophthalmic problems, indigestion or dyspepsia.
Etiology and pathophysiology of common ailments should be known by the community pharmacists.
Diarrhoea is the passage of stools a number of times, an abnormal increase in the frequency and volume of motions, with the accumulation of water in the intestine.
Nausea is an unpleasant sensation which is subjective and is different from one person to another person.
A person suffering from nausea also face
Pallor
Increased respiratory rate
salivation.
Retching :Rythmatic synchronized contractions of the diaphragm , abdominal and intercostal muscles against a closed glottis causing the intra abdominal and decrease the intra thoracic pressure causing the gastric contents to go up through the esophagus.
Vomiting is the process, emesis or throwing out, expulsion of stomach contents via esophagus and mouth.
Diarrhea is an increased frequency and decreased consistency of fecal discharge as compared with an individual’s normal bowel pattern.
It is often a symptom of a systemic disease.
Acute diarrhea is commonly defined as shorter than 14 days’ duration.
Persistent diarrhea as longer than 14 days’ duration.
Chronic diarrhea as longer than 30 days’ duration.
Most cases of acute diarrhea are caused by infections with viruses, bacteria, or protozoa, and are generally self-limited.
Fibromyalgia is characterized by chronic widespread pain, increased tenderness at specific sites known as “tender points,” unrefreshing sleep, fatigue and cognitive dysfunction not attributable to other disease states.
Fibromyalgia affects 2–4% of the general population and of those affected, 80–90% are female. In general, symptom onset occurs between the ages of 30 and 60.
While the etiology of fibromyalgia is not entirely clear, associations with trauma, adverse life events, impaired mood (e.g., depression), anxiety, irritable bowel syndrome, irritable bladder syndrome, cold intolerance, paresthesias and other medical condition have been described. Consequently, a patient tailored approach to treatment is ideal to address both symptoms of fibromyalgia and any associated conditions.
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

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

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.

2/16/202033 Dr.Hegde Lectures(DHL)
34. CONCLUSIONS
Both the sponsor and investigator play key roles
in conduct of a clinical trial. This means that the
roles of both the sponsor and the investigator are
so crucial that in the event of their not executing
their defined responsibilities, the clinical trial
would be compromised significantly.
During the conduct of any clinical trial, it is vital
that the
sponsor and the investigator have adequate
interactions and communications to ensure
smooth conduct of the trial.
2/16/202034 Dr.Hegde Lectures(DHL)
35. CONCLUSIONS
Effective planning at both the sponsor's and
investigator's
end is crucial for a successful clinical trial. Failing
to plan at both the ends is planning to fail.
Thus to summarize, adequate planning,
appropriate infrastructure and successful
execution of the responsibilities both by the
sponsor and the investigator would go a long way
in contributing to the success of a clinical trial.
