Malaria during pregnancy tends to be very severe, causing problems for both the fetus and mother like chronic anemia, postpartum hemorrhage, miscarriage, preterm labor, low birth weight, and infant death. It is caused by the parasite sequestering in the placenta. Diagnosis involves blood films or rapid tests looking for the parasite, along with clinical signs of jaundice, fever, splenomegaly, and respiratory distress or symptoms like headache, muscle pain, and vomiting. Treatment depends on the trimester, with quinine orally or intravenously in the first trimester and artemether-lumefantrine as first-line and quinine as second-

Malaria in Pregnancy.pptx
Malaria is a major public health problem in tropical and subtropical regions, especially Africa. Pregnant women are at high risk of malaria infection due to immunosuppression during pregnancy. Malaria in pregnancy is associated with maternal anemia, low birth weight, stillbirth, and maternal and infant mortality. National malaria control programs recommend intermittent preventive treatment with sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine during antenatal visits and the use of insecticide-treated bed nets to prevent malaria in pregnancy. Treatment of malaria in pregnancy requires prompt, anticipatory care due to risks of severe complications like pulmonary edema, hypoglycemia, and renal failure for both mother and baby.

Malaria in pregnancy by dr alka mukherjee nagpur m.s. india
An estimated 125 million pregnancies per year are at risk of malaria around the world.1 For both mother and child, malaria is potentially life-threatening. MMV’s MiMBa strategy aims to raise the standard of care for pregnant women and their newborns affected by malaria.
Key elements of the MiMBa strategy include:
• Ensuring drug supplies for children and pregnant women;
• Generating data on existing compounds to inform on their use in pregnant women and neonates;
• Developing new antimalarial medicines to address the needs of pregnant women and neonates;
• Strengthening the capture of safety data from routine clinical use of antimalarial medicines during pregnancy;
• Advocating for changes in drug development that promote the safe inclusion of pregnant women into clinical studies, with the aim of generating data to support earlier access to innovative medicines for this population.
• Pregnant women are especially susceptible to malaria infection. Without existing immunity, severe malaria can develop requiring emergency treatment, and pregnancy loss is common. In semi-immune women, consequences of malaria for the mother include anaemia while stillbirth, premature delivery and foetal growth restriction affect the developing foetus. Preventive measures include insecticide-treated nets and (in some African settings) intermittent preventive treatment. Prompt management of maternal infection is key, using parenteral artemisinins for severe malaria, and artemisinin combination treatments (ACTs) in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. ACTs may soon also be recommended as an alternative to quinine as a treatment in the first trimester of pregnancy. Monitoring the safety of antimalarials and understanding their pharmacokinetics is particularly important in pregnancy with the altered maternal physiology and the risks to the developing foetus. As increasing numbers of countries embrace malaria elimination as a goal, the special needs of the vulnerable group of pregnant women and their infants should not be overlooked.
Infections in pregnancy
Bacterial and viral infections can commonly affect pregnant women and their fetuses. Some key infections discussed include Group B Streptococcus (GBS), urinary tract infections, listeriosis, syphilis, chlamydia, gonorrhea, rubella, cytomegalovirus (CMV), varicella zoster, herpes simplex virus, viral hepatitis, and toxoplasmosis. Many of these infections can cause complications for both the mother such as premature labor, and the fetus/newborn such as sepsis, pneumonia, blindness, and developmental delays if not properly treated or prevented from transmission during pregnancy and delivery. Screening and treatment are important to reduce risk of infection to both the mother and baby

Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is increasing rapidly in sub-Saharan Africa and other developing countries, putting stress on health care systems. An estimated 16,000 people are infected with HIV daily, including 3 million women. Countries like Rwanda have found 18.3% of women attending antenatal care to be HIV positive. Poverty is also related to AIDS as a cause of death due to poor health care, availability of drugs, crowding, and malnutrition. Prevention efforts should focus on health education, abstinence, faithfulness, screening blood, and reducing mother-to-child transmission.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.MERCURY GROUP.BHMS.MATERIA MEDICA.HOMOEOPATHY
Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.
