Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
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
2. LACTATION
It is the process of secreting milk from breast. It is a
physiological process under neuroendocrine control.
LACTATION FAILURE
Condition where mother is not able to produce milk.
4. PROLACTIN REFLEX
Prolactin
goes in
blood to the
breast
Makes milk
secreting
cells produce
milk
Baby suckles
at the breast
Sensory
impulse
from nipple
to brain
Prolactin
secreted
from ant part
of pituitary
5. OXYTOCIN REFLEX
Oxytocin
secreted from
posterior part
of pituitary
Oxytocin
makes muscle
cell around
alveoli
contract
Milk collected
in alveoli flows
along duct
towards nipple
Baby suckles
at the breast
Sensory

6. IMPORTANT
Oxytocin reflex is positively affected by mother’s
sensation and feelings like thinking lovingly about the
baby,touching, smelling or seeing the baby or hearing
the baby cry.
If mother is emotionally disturbed or experiencing
pain or discomfort oxytocin reflex doesn’t work well
and baby has problem getting milk.

8. Maternal: Psychological and
social causes(81%)
Insufficient milk(80%/75%)
Unsuitable milk(38%/50%)
Refusal by baby(4%/2%)
Illness of the mother(4%/-)
Maternal employment(8%/2%)
Advice by relative or friend(12%/-)
Ill infant (43%/25%)
Advice by doctor/nurse(7%/-)
Dislike for breast feeding
Fixed schedule feeding

13. Neonatal causes
Neonatal illness early maternal/infant
separationinterferes with initiation of lactation.
Neonatal disorders associated with poor suck(cleft lip
and/or palate, short frenulum, micrognathia, choanal
atresia)
maternal or infant medication that causes drowsiness
neonatal asphyxia, preterm birth, Down’s syndrome etc
Breast rejection
14. The complaint of “insufficient milk” is more often
than not a wrong perception of the mother, fostered by
the mother’s uncertainty about her capacity to feed
her baby properly, no knowledge about the normal
behavior of a baby (who usually nurses frequently) and
negative opinions of significant persons.
The wrong perception by the mother leads to the
introduction of complementary feeding negatively
affects milk production.
15. When to suspect lactation failure?
SYMPTOMS
Infant is not satisfied after feeds, cries a lot.
Wants to nurse frequently.
Takes very long feeds.
Improper weight gain
Infrequent bowel movement- small in amount, dry
and hard.
Less need to change diaper(6-8)
16. SIGNS INDICATING LACTATION FAILURE IN 1ST
WEEK
Weight loss greater than 10% of the birthweight,
not regaining birth weight up to two weeks of life,
no urinary output for 24 hours.
absence of yellow stools in the first week
Clinical signs of dehydration.
18. The concept of breast feeding kinetics as developed by
Livingstone conveys the idea that there is dynamic
interaction between a breast feeding mother and her
infant over time.
Most disorders of lactation are iatrogenic because of
impeded establishment of lactation/ inadequate
ongoing stimulation and drainage of breast.
Most breast feeding difficulties are due to lack of
knowledge, poor technical skills/ lack of support.
Almost all problems are reversible.
Prevention, early detection and management should
become a routine part of maternal and child health
care.
19. ANTENATAL SCREENING FOR RISK

LACTATION ASSESSMENT IN 3RD TRIMESTER
BREAST FEEDING EDUCATION
EDUCATION REGARDING ADVANTAGES OF BREAST
FEEDING TO BABY, MOTHER AND TO SOCIETY
EDUCATION REGARDING DISADVANTAGES OF TOP FEEDS
COUNSELLING TO MOTHER WITH PREVIOUS
UNSUCCESSFUL BREAST FEEDING EXPERIENCE
IMPORTANT- mother should be accompanied by other
influential members of the family as attitude and knowledge of
mother as well as her near ones should be changed in order to
have successful breast feeding.
20. NATAL AND IMMEDIATE POST NATAL-
what to do?
Medicated and interventional labor should be avoided as far as
possible interferes with instinctive rooting behaviour to locate and
latch onto the breast.
Initiate breastfeeding as soon as possible after complete delivery of
placenta early breast stimulation initiates early lactation.
Breast feeding on demand regular breast drainage and stimulation
promotes lactogenesis( initially hormonal based, later autocrine)
Proper positioning, attachment, latching on supervised.
Rooming in (24 hrs)- same bed. Separation impedes drainage and
stimulation.
Combined mother infant nursing institution of patient centred
teaching.
Address local problems(biological causes immediately)
Counselling regarding diet of mother.
21. Instructions to be given to mother for successful
establishment of lactation.
Positioning, attachment, latch-on.
Frequency- on demand usually2-3 hourly(≥8 feeds),
including night feeds.
Duration- varies between mother-infant pair.
Pattern of breast use- 1st breast comfortably drained
followed by switching to 2nd
Feeds not to be terminated prematurely in sleeping
infants.
Mothers should be explained that it takes time for
proper milk formation
22. Baby friendly hospital initiative(1992)
1. Written breast feeding policy.
2. Training of health care staffs.
3. Information to all pregnant ladies regarding breast feeding.
4. Breast feeding within half an hour of birth.
5. No food or drink other than breast milk to the baby, unless
medically indicated.
6. Show mothers how to breast feed and to maintain lactation
even if they should be separated.
7. Rooming in.
8. Breast feeding on demand.
9. No artificial teats or pacifiers or prelacteal feeds to the baby.
10. Mother support group.
23. • Infant wt loss<7%+good breast feeding skills
• Plan discharge+ lactation assessment on f/u
• Infant weight loss<7%+poor breast feeding
skills
• Extended hospital stay
• Infant weight loss>7%
• Breast feeding assesssment+extended
hospital stay
Planning hospital discharge
25. Physiological basis of lactation on
which relactation depends.
Breast feeding requires:-
Growth of secretory alveoli in glandular tissue of breast.
Secretion of milk.
Removal of milk
Depends on hormone
Prolactin- Imp for:- development of secretory alveoli;
. secretion of milk
Stimulus- nipple stimulation
Most effective stimulus-suckling of an infant
(daytime<night time suckling)
26. Oxytocin- Imp for milk removal.
BEST WAY OF STIMULATION+REMOVAL OF MILK:-
SUCKLING INFANT.
27. APPROACH TO A MOTHER WITH
LACTATION FAILURE
HISTORY +CLINICAL EXAMINATION
NO DISEASE

29. If infant is willing to suck
Encourage the woman:-
Put infant to breast frequently(1-2 hrly/8-10 times in
24 hrs)
Sleep with infant and breast feed at night
Ensure good attachment
Let infant suckle at both breasts, for as long as possible
Feed infant supplements separately using a cup.
30. Infant is unwilling/unable to suck
Ensure child is not sick
Skin to skin contact
Offer breast any time child is interested to suck
Breast feeding supplementer method
Drop and drip method
34. Supplementing the infant
While mother’s breastmilk supply is becoming
established, it is essential to ensure that the child receives
adequate nutrition( through wati and
spoon/breastfeeding supplementer)
Supplement- cow’s milk diluted till 2 m of
age(150ml+50mlwater+5g sugar)
To begin with supplement should be full (150cc/kg/day
divided in atleast 8 feeds)
As breast milk increases supplement should be reduced.
child’s weight should be regularly monitored.
35. How to reduce supplement
In some cases child shows less interest by refusing
supplement/ refusal to suck on 2nd breast.
Reduce total amount of supplement in 24hrs by 50ml.
Continue reduced feed for next few days
If by behaviour and weight gain(125g/week) feed appears
to be sufficient reduce it further else continue the same for
1 more week.
36. GALACTOGOGUES
Galactogogues (or lactogogues) are medications or other
substances believed to assist initiation, maintenance, or
augmentation of maternal milk production.
MEDICATIONS
Metoclopramide- antagonizes dopamine in cns, hence increases
prolactin level.
Dose- 30-45mg/day in 3-4 divided doses. Given for 7-14 days then
taper off in next 5-7 days.
Domperidone- dopamine antagonist increases prolactin level.
Dose-10-20mg/day in 3-4 divided doses for 3-8weeks.
Sulpride and chlorpromazine
Gh
TRH
Oxytocin
41. Flat nipple
Anatomical nipple forms
only 1/3rd of the teat of the
breast tissue in baby’s
mouth.
Reassuarance
Inverted
nipple
Nipple does not
protract, on attempt to
pull out the nipple, it
goes deeper into breast.
SYRINGE METHOD
43. ENGORGED BREAST
If baby is able to suckle, mother should feed
frequently.
If pain and tightness does not allow suckling express
milkcomfortable breast feed
Cold compress
Paracetamol for pain and fever.
44. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN FULL AND
ENGORGED BREASTS
Full Breasts Engorged Breasts
Hot Painful
Heavy Oedematous
Hard
Tight, especially nipple
Shiny
May look red
Milk flowing Milk NOT flowing
No fever May be fever for 24 hours
45. Mastitis and abscess
Mastitis supportive counselling and improved
drainage of milk from affected part of breast by breast
feeding/expressing
Indication for antibiotics
Lab tests show infection
Severe symptoms/ symptoms do not improve after 12
hrs of milk removal
• Analgesic and warm compress for pain relief
• Abscess incision and drainage.
46. Sore /cracked nipple
Mc cause of sore nipple- poor attachment.
Improving infant’s attachment to breast relieves the
pain.
Hind milk rich in fat should be applied.
Oral thrush 1% gentian violet should be applied over
nipple as well as inside baby’s mouth.
48. Studies
Lactation failure by G.P mathur published in IAP-partial
lactation failure(94.7%) was more common than complete
lactation failure(5.3%). An attempt at relactation was
successful in 69.3% cases, failed in 4% cases and the
remaining were lost to follow up.
LACTATION MANAGEMENT CLINIC-POSITIVE
REINFORCEMENT TO HOSPITAL BREASTFEEDING
PRACTICES by Nanavti and Mondkar78.1% mothers
practised EBF on subsequent visits, 21.2% were partially
successful in lactation and only 3 mothers had lactation
failure.
49. Conclusion
Supportive breastfeeding policies in hospital
constitute the foundation for initiation of successful
breastfeeding by mothers, constant reinforcement and
support to all lactating mothers is essential to
maintain lactation.
