Psychological and Social Aspects of Adolescents' LifeHemangi Narvekar
Adolescence captures the notion of the growing individual who is able to take increasing responsibility, but who still needs more protection than an adult.

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

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.

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

The dimensions of healthcare quality refer to various attributes or aspects that define the standard of healthcare services. These dimensions are used to evaluate, measure, and improve the quality of care provided to patients. A comprehensive understanding of these dimensions ensures that healthcare systems can address various aspects of patient care effectively and holistically. Dimensions of Healthcare Quality and Performance of care include the following; Appropriateness, Availability, Competence, Continuity, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Efficacy, Prevention, Respect and Care, Safety as well as Timeliness.
2. Outline
• Understanding young peoples’ care
– What is (special about) adolescence
– Transition impossible without acknowledging this
• What is transition?
– More than just transfer…..
• How can/should you do transition?
– Or even better: how to deliver age and
developmentally appropriate care

child to independent,
resilient, autonomous
(healthcare using) adult
– Puberty
– Adult thinking and
personal identity
– Sex, drugs ‘n’ rock

behaviours
– Education/vocation
– Social media
– Social pressures
6. Adolescents are a big population
• Paediatrics caters for
small children
• Adult medicine caters
for middle/older age
• 16-25 big population
– Utilise health care
– 85% seek medical care at
least x1 pa (average x2)
• Noncommunicable
disease starts here!

8. The developing adolescent brain
• Adult brain (‘yourself’) develops ability to
– Abstract think
– Impulse control/delay gratification
– Act independently from peers
– Understand long term consequences
• More related to experience than age
• Risk taking (hallmark behaviour)in adolescence
– necessary
– appropriate
– Ask about it (HEEADSSS) and ask alone….

14. How to do transition?
Need identified and
enshrined in policy
• 2010 Kennedy Report
• DOH 2012, 2013
– Moving on well
– You’re welcome
• CQC report 2014
• NICE Guidance 2016
• Ready, Steady, Go!
16. General Barriers
Reasons for failure of successful transition into adult healthcare:
• Financing / politics
• Lack of incentive to invest
• Lack of service
• Lack of planning for transition
• Information transfer /admin
• Time
• Training*
*43% health professionals in national survey reported
unmet training needs as barrier
McDonagh JE 2004
17. Current Sheffield ‘mirror’ service
10 - 16 16 - 25
Weekly YP clinic 10-15
Monthly transfer clinic 15+
YP clinic 16-25
18. Both paed and adult services need to:
• provide YPF care
– HEEADSSS, see YP alone, promote resilience etc
– Train and support each other
• agree how they will prepare/receive YP and what
transition for their service looks like
– Write a policy and stick to it (don’t reinvent wheels)
– Transition is MUCH more than transfer
– Ready steady go?
• Address barriers
– Collect and audit data, harangue managers, get patients
involved, invoke NICE
• Start low, go slow!
19. Summary
• Adolescence is a distinct developmental stage
• NHS systems constrain good adolescent care
• Work across + within systems in ‘YP friendly way’
• Prioritise
– good communication
– Engagement
– Choice
– Resilience
• Remain open to change and challenge!
