Nutrition is essential for surgery patients as surgical procedures and fasting can quickly lead to malnutrition. Patients with severe protein depletion are more likely to experience postoperative complications like pneumonia and infection. Nutritional status should be assessed through history, diet assessment, physical exam, and lab tests. Malnutrition is caused by reduced food intake, malabsorption, altered metabolism, and more. Nutritional requirements vary but are generally 25-30 calories/kg/day and 1.5-2 grams of protein/kg/day. Nutrition can be provided enterally through tubes or parenterally through IVs. Enteral nutrition is preferred over parenteral when possible.

Daily minimum nutritional requirements of the critically illRalekeOkoye
Critically ill patients have nutritional needs that are essential in their management. This is a synopsis with specific calculable applications for the daily recommended components of nutrition in critical care.
Approximately 35% to 60% of all patients with head and neck cancer are malnourished at the
time of their diagnosis because of tumor burden and obstruction of intake or the anorexia and cachexia
associated with their cancer. The purpose of this presentation is to provide a contemporary review of the
nutritional aspects of care for patients with head and neck cancer.

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!

But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
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.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN HEALTHCARE.pdfAnujkumaranit
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It encompasses tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.

5. Importance of nutrition in
surgery
1. Surgical procedures (and subsequent fasting)
after admission can cause these patients to go
into severe malnutrition quickly, often before
the treating team realizes it.

EVALUATION OF MALNUTRITION
(HISTORY)
10. ASSESSING PATIENT FOR
MALNUTRITION
1. Clinical assessment:
Lack of nutritional intake for 5 days or more.
Clinical appearance – does the patient looked
malnourished?
Unintentional weight loss for more than 10% from usual
body weight for previous 6 months. More than 20% is likely
to represent severe malnutrition.
BMI less than 18.5.
History of poor nutrient intake: anorexia, nausea, vomiting,
early satiety and food preference.
11. Physical examination anthropometry
Definition
• The science dealing with measurement of the size, weight and
proportions of human body
• It can assess level of energy reserves by estimate amount of
subcutaneous adipose stores.
• However it cannot identify specific nutrient deficiency
• Triceps skin fold thickness (mm)
Mid arm circumference (cm) :
Mid-upper circumference (cm) – (π x triceps skin fold thickness)
(cm)
13. EVALUATION OF MALNUTRITION
(LABORATORY INVESTIGATION)
To detect subclinical nutritional deficiencies
in patients
•Nitrogen Balance
•Serum Albumin
•Creatinine excretion
•Immunological Function assessment
14. Blood indices:
Nitrogen balance
Nitrogen balance provides an index of protein gain or loss:
6.25 protein gained is equivalent to 1 g nitrogen
Can be assessed by measuring the difference between nitrogen
consumed (mouth, enteral tube or IV) and nitrogen excreted in the
urine, feces and other intestinal sources.
Nitrogen Intake – loss [90% urine, stool 5%, integument 5%]
or
[Protein intake (g)/6.25] – urinary urea (g) – 2(for stool & skin) –
2(non-urea nitrogen)
15. Blood indices
Serum Albumin
Serum albumin level falls during the acute stress of surgery,
sepsis or other acute inflammatory illness because of
increased circulating extravascular volume
TNF-α mediated inhibition of albumin synthesis
The measurement of serum proteins, in particular albumin, is
often used as an index of malnutrition (<35g/L)
Sensitive but non-specific.
The half-life of albumin is 14 to 18 days.
Prealbumin (half-life, 3 to 5 days) or transferrin (<200 mg/dL;
half-life, 7 days), have been proposed as more sensitive
indicators of rapid changes in nutritional status.
16. Blood indices
Creatinine Excretion
It is produced constantly in an amount directly
proportional to skeletal muscle mass.
With steady state a day-to-day renal function, each
gram of creatinine in the 24-h urine collection
represents 18.5g of fat free skeletal muscle.
Measurement of creatinine in 24-h urine collection can
be used as a relative measure of this body
compartment.
Immunological assessment
Total Lymphocyte count is often <1000 /μL in PCM and
may accompany anergy to common skin test antigens.
17.
18. ASSESSMENT OF NUTRITIONAL
REQUIREMENT
Energy and protein requirement vary depending on
weight, body composition, clinical status, mobility and
dietary intake.
Few patients require more than 2500 kcal/day. Additional
calories are unlikely to be used effectively and may
constitute a metabolic stress.
Refeeding the chronically starved patient must be
cautious because of the dangers of hypokalemia and
hypophosphatem.ia
Daily energy
requirement
uncomplicated Complicated/stresse
d
Energy (kcal/kg/day) 25 30 – 35
Protein (g/kg/day) 1.0 1.3 – 1.5
19. Caloric requirements
• 25-30 cal/kg/day
• carbohydrate ~70%
• Lipid 15-30%
• Protein 1.5-2.0g/kg/day. Not for calories
• Additional 50% to 100% for stress as in
ICU patients
21. How to give (Routes of administration)
Enteral
NGT
Gastrostomy
Jejunostomy
PEG (percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy) in
prolonged periods
Trans-gastric jejunostomy
Parenteral
Central
peripheral
Combination
22. Enteral vs parenteral
General Surgery
Laparotomy
Enteral better than parenteral (Level I evidence)
Ulcerative Colitis and CD after resection
Enteral better than parenteral (Level I evidence)
Liver transplantation
Enteral = Parenteral (Wicks 1994 Level I evidence)
Acute pancreatitis
Gastric and duodenal feeding- ↑ complication (Ragins
1973)
TPN, jejunal feeding (Stabile 1984, Bodoky 1991)
Jejunal feeding = TPN (McClave 1997 Level I evidence)
Jejunal feeding better than TPN (Windsor 1998 Level I evidence)
23. Parenteral nutrition
As Primary Therapy:
TPN influence the disease process:
1. GIT fistula (high output)
2. Renal failure (ATN)
3. Short Bowel Syndrome
4. Acute Burn (severe trauma)
5. Hepatic failure
6. With normal bowel length but with
malabsorption syndrome due to SPRUE,
enzymatic or pancreatic insufficiency,
Ulcerative colitis, regional enteritis
7. Anorexia nervosa
25. Take home message
I will assess the patient (history,phy exam, labs)
I will always memorize that
TOTAL CAL REQUIREMENT PER KG PER DAY IS
BEEx INJURY FACTORx ACTIVITY FACTOR
In normal individual its 25-30kcal/kg/day
After I have decided total caloric requirement in 24 hrs ,I will get
through my caloric chart and with reference to food I will prepare
diet chart for my patient
