Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) in Pharmaceutical Context are the clinical experts who can play a critical role in influencing the opinion and clinical practice of their peers and also the healthcare organizations. Thus it is important to have KOL Management as a part of the Marketing strategy.
KOL Management is a continuous process that involves identifying the right experts who are interested and aligned with your brand/molecule, profiling their key strengths and segmenting them according to their positions, mindset and collaboration preferences etc.
Involving KOLs throughout the product lifecycle helps in instant feedback, building long-term relationships and customer loyalty in a long run.

The world, as we know, has changed. It has become imperative for the governments, employers, workers' organizations, and the global community to adopt workforce protection measures in the fight against COVID-19. These organizations should strengthen capacities to protect health workers and emergency responders, providing them with Occupational Health Services, thus ensuring occupational health and safety. Health workers are at the front line of the COVID-19 outbreak response and hence exposed to hazards that put them at a high risk of infection. Hazards include pathogen exposure, long working hours, psychological distress, fatigue, occupational burnout, stigma, and physical and psychological violence.
As the crisis is set to deepen in the coming months, the absence of adequate protection measures has further amplified the fear of COVID-19 infection and hence put a huge strain on the mental health and psychosocial aspects of health workers. All these have resulted in high rates of absenteeism/absconding and depletion of the Health Workforce. What best practices could safeguard the most precision resource against the COVID-19 outbreak – the healthcare workers? How can we build resilience and boost morale among our health workers?
Here's the webinar "Caring for Caregivers – COVID-19 Crisis and Best Practices for Healthcare Organizations" hosted by QurHealth, a division of GMI, a Chennai-based Health-tech, Research and Innovation Center for Ventech Solutions, USA. QurHealth’s Family Health Book Suite goFHB is a clinical data digitalization & management solution for healthcare organizations that enables them to send patient health records over myFHB application to their patients. Our last three webinars saw 400+ registrations and 250+ delegates participating and promoting active discussion on industry-specific subjects. The upcoming webinar with Healthcare experts will focus on “Caring for Caregivers” addressing the queries and doubts in the minds of healthcare workers and organizations on best practices for healthcare organizations against the COVID-19 crisis.

Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image
