Bedwetting is a problem for children and parents that has significant psychological and social impacts if left untreated. While some believe bedwetting will resolve on its own or is not a medical issue, evidence shows bedwetting can negatively impact a child's self-esteem and social development as well as cause stress for parents. Additionally, 20-30% of children with bedwetting may have underlying psychological disorders. Early evaluation and treatment is recommended to improve the child's well-being and development as well as reduce family stress.

Barriers to healthy aging include a lack of tailored health promotion and difficulties with identification and diagnosis of issues. Recommendations include improving practitioner education, regular health monitoring from age 40, and empowering individuals to participate in their own healthcare.
The document proposes a health promotion activity called "Bipolar disorder - the basics" to increase awareness and understanding of bipolar disorder (BD) and help prevent relapse. The activity would provide participants with information on what BD is, its types and symptoms, prevalence, comorbidities, stigma and effects of stigma. It would be delivered through a presentation facilitated by a trainer, followed by entry and exit surveys to measure knowledge increase and user satisfaction. The goal is to educate people, including those with BD, their families and professionals, by presenting information on BD in a clear and non-technical way while using technical terms when needed.
Geriatrics is the medical specialty dedicated to providing care for older adults. Geriatricians are trained to address health issues that may affect older patients differently than younger adults, such as multiple illnesses occurring at the same time or medications affecting older people differently. Common conditions seen in older adults include heart disease, arthritis, diabetes, falls, depression, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease. As people age, assistive devices and home modifications may help extend independence by assisting with activities of daily living.
Geriatrics focuses on healthcare for the elderly aged 65 and over. It aims to promote health and prevent/treat diseases in older adults. Key competencies include managing cognitive/behavioral disorders, medications, mobility issues, atypical disease presentation, and palliative care. Geriatric medicine considers age-related decline of organs over a lifetime of habits. Common geriatric conditions include dementia, Alzheimer's, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, osteoporosis, Parkinson's, sleep disorders, and stroke. Most older adults take multiple daily medications which can impact hospital care if not reported. Specialties include rehabilitation, psychiatry, cardiology, and oncology tailored to senior needs. Treating geriatrics involves complex legal and medical
Geriatrics focuses on healthcare for elderly patients. It aims to promote health by preventing and treating diseases and disabilities in older adults. Caring for older patients requires understanding their diseases, support systems, and personal goals to create an appropriate care plan. There is no set age threshold for geriatric care; it depends on individual patient needs and specialist availability. Globally and in India, the elderly population is growing rapidly and will nearly double by 2025. Common health issues among the elderly include cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, neurological, and accidental problems. The Indian government provides various social and healthcare programs to support the elderly population.
This document summarizes key findings from the Adult Changes in Thought (ACT) study on healthy aging. It discusses the concept of "enlightened aging" which involves taking proactive steps to build resilience against stressors like COVID-19. The ACT study has found that regular physical activity, education, and social connection can help compress morbidity in late life. It emphasizes developing "three reservoirs" of well-being - mental, physical, and social reserves - to promote successful aging. The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of these reservoirs, as isolation disrupted routines and increased depression. Overall, the document promotes a proactive approach to aging by managing health risks and adapting to changes with mindfulness.
This document provides information about World Mental Health Day 2020. It discusses the high prevalence of mental disorders worldwide and lack of access to treatment.

This document outlines a child health screening and early intervention program in India. It discusses the need for such a program to detect four common issues in children: defects at birth, deficiencies, diseases, and developmental delays. The program aims to screen babies, preschoolers, and school-aged children. Mobile health teams will conduct screenings and refer children to District Early Intervention Centers for follow-up care if issues are identified. The roles of ASHAs, mobile health teams, and early intervention centers are described to implement screenings and provide treatment.
This document discusses managing pain in older adults. It notes that around 53% of older adults experience bothersome pain every month, with women, obese people, and those with musculoskeletal conditions or depression reporting higher rates. Chronic pain is common in older adults and affects mobility, sleep, and quality of life. The types of pain older adults experience include osteoarthritis, musculoskeletal conditions, and pain from cardiac, respiratory or diabetic complications. Treatment considerations must account for how aging affects drug absorption and clearance as well as common comorbidities. Non-drug treatments and a multidisciplinary team approach can also help manage pain in older populations.
The document discusses health vulnerabilities of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It defines ASD and outlines its signs and symptoms. It discusses challenges with diagnosis and various treatment approaches. It notes higher rates of health issues in people with ASD compared to the general population, including risks associated with alternative therapies promoted without evidence. Recommendations include improving support services, healthcare worker training, and inclusive environments to address needs of those with ASD.
Down Syndrome is the most common chromosomal abnormality affecting children today. It occurs in approximately 1 in 800 to 1,000 births and is caused by the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 21. Individuals with Down Syndrome often have intellectual disabilities and are at increased risk for certain medical conditions such as congenital heart disease, gastrointestinal abnormalities, hearing loss, thyroid disorders, and periodontal disease. Proper screening, monitoring, and management of associated health issues can help improve quality of life for those with Down Syndrome.
