This document discusses different types of air masses and fronts that affect weather patterns. It defines air masses and their characteristics, lists the main types that affect the US, and how air mass movement occurs. The document also provides illustrations and definitions of different fronts like cold, warm, stationary and occluded and pressure systems like high and low pressure areas and the weather each typically causes.

Dengue fever dr. yusuf imran
This document provides information on recognizing and managing dengue infections. It discusses the pathogenesis, clinical course, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of dengue. The clinical course is divided into the febrile, critical and recovery phases. Classification of dengue cases and recommendations for clinical management are also provided, including fluid management and treatment for different severity groups (A, B and C). Group C requires emergency treatment for severe manifestations like shock. Overall the document aims to guide healthcare professionals in appropriately diagnosing and treating dengue infections.
Cystic fibrosis dr yusuf imran
Cystic fibrosis is caused by a mutation in the CFTR gene that results in a defect in chloride conductance. This leads to thick, sticky secretions in organs like the lungs, gut, and pancreas. Diagnosis is made via sweat chloride test or gene identification. Management focuses on controlling lung infections through antibiotics and airway clearance, improving nutrition with calorie supplementation, vitamins, and pancreatic enzyme replacement, and treating complications such as liver disease.

Dr yusuf imran bronchiectasis
This document discusses bronchiectasis in children. Bronchiectasis is the irreversible dilatation of the bronchi due to destruction of elastic and muscular components of the bronchial walls. It generally results from obstruction and inflammation of the airways leading to chronic infection and recruitment of inflammatory cells. The inflammatory mediators released destroy bronchial walls causing bronchiectasis. Common causes include severe pneumonia, measles, tuberculosis, cystic fibrosis, and primary ciliary dyskinesia. Patients present with recurrent cough and purulent sputum. Diagnosis involves chest X-ray, CT scan, and sputum/swab cultures. Treatment consists of antibiotics, airway clearance techniques, and addressing underlying disorders. Surgery
Pertussis dr yusuf imran
Pertussis, or whooping cough, is an acute respiratory infection caused by the Bordetella pertussis bacteria. It is characterized by intense coughing fits followed by a high-pitched intake of breath, known as the "whoop." While vaccination programs have reduced global prevalence, it remains a public health concern. In India in particular, cases dropped significantly from 1987 to 2011 due to expanded vaccination efforts. The disease is highly contagious, spreading through respiratory droplets. Complications can include pneumonia, seizures, and even death in severe cases, especially for infants under 2 months old. Treatment focuses on supportive care and antibiotics like erythromycin to reduce symptoms and transmission.
Yusuf Transient & persistent hypoglycemia in neonates
This document discusses neonatal hypoglycemia. It begins by explaining glucose physiology in fetuses and the adaptations required at birth. It then defines neonatal hypoglycemia and discusses the various etiologies including endocrine disorders, decreased substrate availability, and increased glucose utilization. Symptoms, screening, and management including prevention, treatment with oral feeds or IV therapy, and treatment of persistent or severe hypoglycemia are covered. The importance of aggressively managing hypoglycemia to prevent neurological damage is emphasized.
Empyema dr yusuf imran
Empyema is the accumulation of pus in the pleural space caused by a lung infection spreading. It is classified into three stages based on the fluid characteristics. Common causes are bacterial pneumonias like Streptococcus pneumoniae. Symptoms include fever, cough, and chest pain. Chest x-ray or ultrasound can detect fluid buildup. Treatment involves antibiotics, drainage of pus, and occasionally surgery. The goal is to clear the infection, expand the lung, and resolve symptoms. Complications may include persistent fever, abscesses, or fistulae if not properly treated.

Perinatal HIV- Prevention of Parent to child transmission (PPTCT)
Perinatal HIV- Prevention of Parent to child transmission (PPTCT)University college of Medical Sciences, Delhi
Based on the current NACO guidelines for prevention of parent to child transmission of HIV in India. Also describes the medication, testing and followup of children born to HIV positive mothers.Stridor In Children
This document discusses stridor, which is a harsh sound caused by turbulent airflow through a partially obstructed airway. Stridor can be inspiratory, expiratory, or biphasic depending on where in the respiratory cycle it occurs. Inspiratory stridor suggests an upper airway obstruction while expiratory stridor implies an obstruction lower in the airway. The document outlines the characteristics, causes, diagnosis, and management of both acute and chronic stridor in children. Common causes include croup, laryngomalacia, subglottic stenosis, and foreign body aspiration. Diagnosis involves history, examination, and procedures like laryngoscopy. Management depends on the underlying cause but may include positioning, oxygen, cortic
Acute respiratory infection (ARI)
Acute respiratory infection in children, etiology, clinical features, diagnosis, treatment. Common infections in children including common cold, tonsillitis, LTB, Croup, Epiglottitis etc.
