Clinical Data Quality in Mozambique: A Comparative ExerciseJSI
Presentation for the American Public Health Association & Expo in Atlanta, GA. November 2017:
Ensuring that quality data are collected and reported to the Ministry of Health (MOH) is a priority in Mozambique as it is the foundation for the provision of quality health services. Since 2014, the Strategic Information Project in Mozambique (M-SIP) has provided technical assistance to MOH to conduct annual rounds of data quality assessments (DQA) in each province. Seven indicators were selected as part of the national DQA strategy. Each DQA had a quantitative and a system assessment component. The quantitative component includes tracing and verification of reported data, where recounted data is compared to data reported at three levels: health facility (HF), district, and province. M-SIP conducted all DQAs using the same methodology making the results comparable. After three consecutive national rounds, there is a clear trend of improvement, despite deviations remaining high. The regular, reinforcing nature of this activity and consistency of HF recommendations has had a positive impact on the data quality and results of the assessments. For example, the overall national deviation of the “patients active in ART” indicator decreased from 37% to 22% over the three-year period. The successful implementation of the DQA activity, as well as its unique, inclusive approach to promoting MOH ownership, has resulted in MOH recognition—at all levels—that DQA activities are crucial to future success. The M-SIP and MOH teams are now developing a more methodological approach to MOH staff empowerment, enabling fully independent MOH implementation of this activity while continuing to improve the quality of data.

Optimising the Model of Care for Patient Management at The Tweed Cancer Care ...Cancer Institute NSW
The commonly understood model of shift to shift nursing handover does not apply to most ambulatory day treatment units. Nonetheless, ‘handover’ of patient clinical information remains quintessential to safe clinical practice. Of considerable interest is how EMR may aid the transfer of patient clinical information in these circumstances and address the question: does this facilitate improved patient care?
Transitioning from reaching every district to reaching every communityJSI
This presentation focuses on learning acquired from the last 2-3 year effort in 8 districts across both Uganda and Ethiopia and REC-QI potential to add to the arsenal of RI strengthening tools. REC is now the number one approach to reaching hard-to-reach health facilities. Adding Quality improvement to RED/REC will combine the “what” (RED/REC) and “how” (QI) factors to strengthening for sustainable improvement in coverage and brings together all EPI stakeholders. In addition, by working at both national and lower level, REC-QI encourages peer learning and incorporation of innovations into national policies, guidelines, and protocols.

Disruption of blood supply to lung alveoli due to blockage of one or more pulmonary blood vessels is called as Pulmonary thromboembolism. In this presentation we will discuss its causes, types and its management in depth.
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
Anti ulcer drugs and their Advance pharmacology ||
Anti-ulcer drugs are medications used to prevent and treat ulcers in the stomach and upper part of the small intestine (duodenal ulcers). These ulcers are often caused by an imbalance between stomach acid and the mucosal lining, which protects the stomach lining.
||Scope: Overview of various classes of anti-ulcer drugs, their mechanisms of action, indications, side effects, and clinical considerations.

MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
