In the growth of scientific medicine, Medical Records (now called, Health Information) have played an important role as a tool and basis for planning patient care besides Medical Education, Research and Legal protection. Manual Medical Records have undergone tremendous transformations as the healthcare policy makers and healthcare providers have realized that good healthcare could be possible only when scientific, comprehensive and integrated Medical Records are maintained from birth to death including birth information, immunizations, child growth and periodic health problems and remedies provided.

India Clinical Trials Market: Industry Size and Growth Trends [2030] Analyzed...Kumar Satyam
According to TechSci Research report, "India Clinical Trials Market- By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F," the India Clinical Trials Market was valued at USD 2.05 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.64% through 2030. The market is driven by a variety of factors, making India an attractive destination for pharmaceutical companies and researchers. India's vast and diverse patient population, cost-effective operational environment, and a large pool of skilled medical professionals contribute significantly to the market's growth. Additionally, increasing government support in streamlining regulations and the growing prevalence of lifestyle diseases further propel the clinical trials market.
Growing Prevalence of Lifestyle Diseases
The rising incidence of lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer is a major trend driving the clinical trials market in India. These conditions necessitate the development and testing of new treatment methods, creating a robust demand for clinical trials. The increasing burden of these diseases highlights the need for innovative therapies and underscores the importance of India as a key player in global clinical research.
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

Definition
Significance of medical record;
Value of medical records to

doctors,
medical education and
research,
Characteristics of good medical Record,
Issues related to medical record
2. Meaning
Systematic documentation of a single patient's
medical history and care across time within one
particular health care provider's jurisdiction
A MR is clear, concise, and accurate history of
patient’s life and illness, written from the health
and medical point of view. The story of patient’s
illness narrated by the patient, observations made
by nurses and the comments and treatment given by
the doctors are recorded in the medical record. Thus,
the MR comprises three general sections.
3. Definition
medical record n.
A chronological written account of a patient's exa
mination and treatment
that includes the patient's medical history and co
mplaints, the physician’s
physical findings, the results of diagnostic tests a
nd procedures, and
medications and therapeutic procedures.
4. Significance
To reconstruct the essential parts of each patient contact,
without the need to refer to memory
Easier for health professionals to carry on where a
colleague left off
Need for continuity of care for the patient is the main
reason
For defending a complaint or clinical negligence claim,
given the insight that they provide into the clinical
judgment that was exercised at the time
Not only relevant clinical findings, but also the decisions
made and agreed actions, in addition to who is making
and agreeing these decisions
Include the information that patients have been given,
any prescribed drugs or other treatment or investigation
and who is making the record and when

7. What is a medical record ?
• It is a document containing sufficient data written in
sequences of events to justify the diagnosis, and
warrant the treatment given and the end results.
Importance of medical record:
• Contributes professional care rendered to the patient.
• Reflect the quality care rendered by the institution.
Differentiation of the medical record:
• In-patient record.
• Out-patient record.

16. Essentials of MRM:
• Comprehensive: the records should be
such as can be easily understood when
retrieved for planning, policy making and
decision making. The language used
should be simple and legible.
• Properly planned: The records are
screened at regular intervals of time to
remove or discard the information not
required for future. In this way, we can
reduce the paper work to 25%. This
would indirectly help us in locating the
desired information quickly.
• Economical: we should manage the
records economically so that we may
achieve more with minimal efforts.
• Accurate: the records should be
accurate; otherwise its utility would
be doubtful.
• Timely: the time taken in retrieving
the information should be as short as
possible. Reducing retrieval time is
essential for effective Material
management.
• Classification: Records must be
classified to be of practical use. The
classification is done either on basis of
subjects or chronology.

19. PROBLEMS
FACED
(Maintenance
issues)
There are many problems faced by institution/hospital for the
proper maintenance of the records.
1. Constant revision of the outdated form is needed .
2. Always trained personnel are needed for the maintenance
3. Inactive records need storage at appropriate place .
4. There must be a need of determination of record retention
5. Unwanted records must be destroyed .
6. Record storage entail into 2 stages. A. Moving the records
from active to inactive file and from there to storage room. B.
Destruction and disposal of the unimportant records
There are various type of damage which may be found
in paper documentation like-aged paper may become
weak, colour alteration from white to yellow, dirt and
dust may be present on the surface, insect and fungus
is a big threat for the records, if paper is kept folded, it
may become weak at the crease, dampness and water
leakage in storage room also destroy the paper.
