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.

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites

Leading the Way in Nephrology: Dr. David Greene's Work with Stem Cells for Ki...Dr. David Greene Arizona
As we watch Dr. Greene's continued efforts and research in Arizona, it's clear that stem cell therapy holds a promising key to unlocking new doors in the treatment of kidney disease. With each study and trial, we step closer to a world where kidney disease is no longer a life sentence but a treatable condition, thanks to pioneers like Dr. David Greene.
CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)

What is ‘Frailty’?
A state of
reduced
resilience and
increased
vulnerability
A state which minor
events can trigger
disproportionate
adverse outcomes
in health, wellbeing
or functional ability
Related to, but
distinct from,
ageing,
comorbidity
and disability
Delivering safe, effective & consistent care to people with frailty is the greatest
challenge facing the NHS in 2016 and beyond.

Supported self-care
What’s required:
1. Engaged, informed individuals
and carers.
2. Professionals who recognise the
central role of the person in their
own care and are committed to
partnership working.
3. Care systems and services that
are organised in ways that enable
individuals, carers and
professionals to work together.
‘Supported Self-care’ is the process of assisting people to manage
their own care in a way that helps to improve their quality and
experience of life.

The role of simulation in training
o Simulation Based Medical Education is believed to be
superior to the traditional style from the viewpoint of
the active and adult learning theories
o Generally used to simulate patient / person for
practitioner to practice on e.g., mannequins, role play,
actors
o Simulation suits allow practitioners to experience some
aspects of an individual’s situation e.g., Age Simulation,
Obesity simulation
o Suits tend to be difficult to scale up and easily change
the environment
20. www.frailtytoolkit.org 20
The basic idea for FrailSIM
1. Create a virtual living space, building in clues
about the person’s situation and interest
3. Develop a scenario that gives the
user simple tasks to do to
experience life as “Victor”
2. Develop an avatar that can have different
levels of frailty-related impairments
21. www.frailtytoolkit.org 21
The learning goals
1. “Virtually” walk in the shoes of an older person with frailty to
increase understanding of their situation and help develop greater
empathy
2. Promote observational skills
and develop greater awareness
of clues in the environment
about an individual and their
situation.
3. Deploy novel assistive technology to support
training goals and thereby mirror one of the skills
for supported self-care

DM:
Firstly the reach and mix of participants:
300+ health and care professionals from more than 20 organisations
Multi-professional with over 40 different roles across all major staff groups
Secondly ‘hot feedback’ on the day of training
92% of participants rated the training “very effective” or “effective”
Around 90% of participants were “likely” or “very likely” to download, recommend or share the Toolkit and Training
Round-table networking and multi-agency working were the “best things about the events”
Length of intensity of the day was an issue for a small proportion of participants, especially at venues with less space and natural light

Thirdly:
3 month follow up survey.
In the pre-event work people were asked to rate themselves on a 10 point scale. 3 months later to rate themselves on the same scale.
Across all 6 areas, respondents reported higher levels of confidence and understanding at the 3- month point.
Understanding of frailty and self care and confidence in supporting people with frailty to self care.
Also in understanding n roles of other people and organisations, in confidence in sign posting people to most appropriate services and in working with families and carers.
Also mention the comments
The final dimension of the evaluation is the data analytics of the toolkit usage, which is currently a work in progress but shows interesting early results.
DM
Needless to say there have also been some challenges.
Awareness of training – ambitious project with tight timescales and reaching out to 700 + primary and social care providers to raise awareness significant challenge.
Access to training – frontline staff, both in fragmented community services and also in big providers e.g. in special measures
Access to toolkit - technology challenges – out of date technology restricting access – IE8 well out of date and unsupported but still browser of choice in many organisations!
An innovative and interactive 2-hour session designed to build understanding and empathy for older people with frailty.
Using the ‘real life’ case-based scenarios, a practical experience of working in a multi-agency, multi-professional environment to support older people living with frailty to self-care.
