The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
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!
New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

3. 1.Respect the child’s need to regress & help him to
accept dependence on others if he resists this.
• Whenever a new situation or a stressful situation arises a
child cannot adjust with the situation and he will
regress, i.e., he will go back to the previous stage of
development.
• Eg: -

4. 2.Have an awareness of the child’s need for help in reconquering the
negative counterpart of the core problem in the stages of development
to which he has regressed.
• In each stage of child’s developmental task there is a positive and negative
counterpart.
• When the child faces a stressful situation he regress to the previous stage of
development, once the situation resolves he needs to be helped to overcome
the negative counterpart and attain the positive one.
• Eg:-

5. 3.Protect the child-family inter -relationships
• The family is the most important
part in a child’s life, especially the
mother. Hence the nurse needs to
provide a family centered care
while caring for a child.
• Eg:-
August 12, 2020
Ms.Anju George, Associate Professor,
SGCON 5
6. 4.Awareness of the feelings of others and readiness to
respond to them so as to strengthen their resources to
cope up with stress.
• When a child gets hospitalized emotional support is needed to
the child and mother. The mother provides emotional support to
the child, the mother too requires emotional support which the
nurse must understand and provide.
• Eg:-

• The child should be explained and prepared according to
their level of understanding on the purpose of
hospitalization which will gain their cooperation in various
procedures.
• Eg:-
8. 6.Tochild, play is not time out from daily living, but rather
an essential part of it that enables him grow & mature
through the various stages of the development.
• Play is essential for the growth and development of a child. It enables
him to explore his surroundings and himself.

No tears in early infancy- due to poor functional
development of lacrimal gland.
August 12, 2020 21
Ms.Anju George, Associate Professor,
SGCON
22. 4. NOSE
• Nasal and oral airway passages are relatively small making the baby
more prone to airway obstruction.
• Nose breathers till 6 months of age. (breathing difficulty in respiratory
infections).
5.ORAL CAVITY
• Infants tongue is large and the oral cavity is small making the baby
prone to develop airway obstruction.

• In children cardiac sphincter of the stomach is relaxed.
• Hence vomiting is so frequent, hence proper positioning
of the child during feed is so important.

25. PHYSIOLOGICAL DIFFERENCES
1. BASAL METABOLIC RATE:
• BMR rate is high in newborn.
• This is due to the rapid energy consumption, secondary to
the rapid cell growth and increased requirement for heat
production.
• Higher BMI will lead to increased oxygen consumption and
calorie requirement.

26. 2. TEMPERATURE REGULATION
Poor thermo regulation is due to immaturity of the
hypothalamus, immaturity of controlling and effector
mechanisms and large surface area compared to the weight of
the baby.
Shivering and sweating mechanisms are absent in newborn.
The mechanism of heat production in newborn baby is by non
shivering thermogenesis which utilizes the brown adipose tissue
(present only for newborns).

3. FLUIDS AND ELECTROLYTES
– Approximately 75-80% of the body weight is composed
of body water in newborn whereas only 60% of the body
weight is composed of body water in adults.
4. CARDIO VASCULAR SYSTEM
Change from fetal to normal circulation.
Heart rate is more in children.
Newborn – 140-160 beats/ min.

5. HEMATOLOGICAL SYSTEM
– The RBCs are large in infants.
– The lifespan of RBC in adult is 120 days; whereas in
newborn its 2/3rd of adult time.
– The blood value in newborn is 85ml/kg body weight;
whereas in adult its 60-70ml/kg

6. GASTROINTESTINAL SYSTEM
– The cardiac sphincter of stomach is relaxed.
– The liver is immature .
– Iron reserve is less. It is only sufficient to meet the demands till 6 months
hence the child need iron supplements
7. RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
– Respiratory rate is rapid .
– Alveolar surface area and the weight of the lungs are 20 times more than that
of the adult.
30. 8. URINARY SYSTEM
Concentration of urine in newborn is 800 mOsmol /L where as in adult
it is 1400 mOsmol/l.
GFR and tubular functions are lower in neonates than adult because of
low blood supply to kidney, smaller pore size and less filtration power
across nephron .
GFR- 38 ml/ min (neonate)
GFR- 125 ml/min (adult)

31. 9. ALIMENTARY TRACT
– Water absorption is poor – faeces of the child is watery.
– Dehydration leads to circulatory failure within 24 hours if
treatment is inadequate.
10. INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM
– Sebaceous glands are large.
– The hair of the neonate is fine and silky.

32. 11. CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
Myelination of nerve endings is incomplete.
90% of brain growth takes place by 2 years of age.
Nerve endings in the retina (rods and cones) are not
fully developed. Thus the images are blurred and
colorless for few weeks.

33. PSYCHOLOGICAL DIFFERENCES
• Fear , escape and avoid strangers till 5 years of age. Explore the
environment.
• INFANCY- more bonding with parents. Separation anxiety is very
common.
• TODDLERS – Negativistic behaviors.
• PRE SCHOOLER- short attention span, easily distractible , better
comprehension
• SCHOOLER – improved attention
• ADOLESCENTS- Identity of peer, confusion.August 12, 2020 33
