Stress results from a change in the environment that is perceived as a challenge, a threat, or a danger and can have both positive and negative effects.
Stress is a feeling of emotional or physical tension. It can come from any event or thought that makes you feel frustrated, angry, or nervous. Stress is your body's reaction to a challenge or demand. In short bursts, stress can be positive, such as when it helps you avoid danger or meet a deadline.
Don't have much or any control over the outcome of a situation. Have responsibilities that you find overwhelming. Don't have enough work, activities or change in your life. Experience discrimination, hate or abuse.
Many people associate crying with feeling sad and making them feel worse, but in reality, crying can help improve your mood - emotional tears release stress hormones. Your stress level lowers when you cry, which can help you sleep better and strengthen your immune system.
Too much stress, however, can suppress your immune system and cause you to get sick more easily. Prolonged periods of stress can also increase your risk of several diseases, including heart disease and cancer.
According to a study, 60 to 80 percent of doctor's office visits may be stress-related. But ongoing, chronic stress can cause or worsen many serious health problems, including: Mental health problems, such as depression, anxiety, and personality disorders. Cardiovascular disease, including heart disease, high blood pressure, abnormal heart rhythms, heart attacks, and strokes.Stress is the physical or mental response to an external cause, such as having a lot of homework or having an illness. A stressor may be a one-time or short-term occurrence, or it can happen repeatedly over a long time. Stress is how we react when we feel under pressure or threatened. It usually happens when we are in a situation that we don't feel we can manage or control. When we experience stress, it can be as: An individual, for example when you have lots of responsibilities that you are struggling to manage.
Some of the physical signs that your stress levels are too high include: Pain or tension in your head, chest, stomach, or muscles. Your muscles tend to tense up when you're stressed, and over time this can cause headaches, migraines, or musculoskeletal problems. Digestive problems.
When someone cries, their heart rate increases and their breathing slows down. The more vigorous the crying, the greater the hyperventilation, which reduces the amount of oxygen the brain receives — leading to an overall state of drowsiness.
As challenging as it may be, the best way to handle difficult feelings, including sadness and grief, is to embrace them. It is important to allow yourself to cry if you feel like it. Make sure to take the time and find a safe space to cry if you need to.
When stress begins to accumulate from negative or challenging events in life that just keep coming, you can find yourself in a state of feeling emotionally worn out and drained. This is called emotional exhaustion. For most people, emotional exhaustion tends to slowly build up over time.
Stress can be defined as any type of change that causes physical, emotional or psychological strain. Stress is your body's response to anything that requires attention or action. Everyone experiences stress to some degree. The way you respond to stress, however, make a big difference to your overall well-being.

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.
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.

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!

2. SEMINAR ON STRESS AND
ITS MANAGEMENT
Presented by,
Premnath R
I year MSc Nursing
Govt. CON Kottayam
3. History
• ‘Stringere’ means ‘to draw tight’
• Walter Cannon refer it as external
factors that disrupted homeostasis.
• The term stress coined by Hans Selye.
4. Stress - Definition
• The non-specific response of the body to any
demand placed upon it.
(Hans Selye)
Stress should be restricted to conditions where
an environmental demand exceeds the natural
regulatory capacity of an organism.
(Bruce McEwen and Jaap Koolhas)
5. Relationship between the person and the
environment that is appraised by the person as
taxing or exceeding his or her resources and
endangering his or her well-being.
(Lazarus and Folkman , 1984)
6. EUSTRESS
Eustress or positive stress occurs when your
level of stress is high enough to motivate you to
move into action to get things accomplished.
7. DISTRESS
Distress or negative stress occurs when your
level of stress is either too high or too low and
your body and/or mind begin to respond
negatively to the stressors.
8. CONCEPTS OF STRESS
• Stress as a biological response.
• Stress as an environmental event.
• Stress as a transaction between the
individual and the environment.
9. Stress as a biological response
• In 1956, Selye described the syndrome of
symptoms as the “fight or flight syndrome”.
He described the reaction in 3 different stages.
1. Alarm reaction stage- during this stage, the
physiological response of the “fight or flight”
syndrome are initiated.
10. 2. Stage of resistance- the individual uses the
physiological response of the first stage as a
defence in the attempt to adapt to the
stressor.
3. Stage of exhaustion- this stage occurs when
there is a prolonged exposure to the stressor
to which the body has adjusted. The adaptive
energy is depleted and the individual can no
longer draw from the resources for
adaptation. Diseases of adaptation (eg.,
headache, mental disorders, coronary artery
diseases, ulcers) may occur.
13. Stress responses in alarm reaction
• Heart rate and strength of cardiac muscle
contraction increases
• Blood vessels supplying to the skin and viscera
constrict; at the same time blood vessels
supplying to skeletal muscles and brain dilate;
thus decreasing blood supply to organs which
do not assume an immediate active role.
• RBC production is increased leading to an
increase in the ability of the blood to clot. This
helps to control bleeding.
14. • Liver converts glycogen into glucose and
releases it into he blood stream; this provides
energy needed to fight the stressor.
• The rate of breathing increases and respiratory
passages widen to accommodate more air.
• Production of saliva and digestive enzymes
reduces.
17. Resistance Reaction
• It is initiated by regulating hormones
secreted by hypothalamus.
• It is a long-term reaction.
• Regulating hormones are
• Corticotropin Releasing Hormone (CRH)
• Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH)
• Thyrotrophic Releasing Hormone(TRH)
18. • CRH stimulates the anterior pituitary to
increase its secretion of adrenocorticotrophic
hormone(ACTH). The action of these
hormones helps to control bleeding, maintain
blood pressure etc.
• GHRH stimulates anterior pituitary to secrete
human growth hormone(HGH).
• TRH causes the anterior pituitary to secrete
thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). The
combined action of HGH and TSH help to
supply additional energy to the body.
19. Exhaustion stage
• At this stage, cells start to die, and the
organs weaken.
• A long – term resistance reaction put
heavy demand on the body, particularly on
the heart, blood vessels, and adrenal
cortex, which may suddenly fail under
strain.
20. • Immune system is exhausted and function is
impaired resulting in decompensation.
• The result can manifest itself in obvious illnesses
such as ulcers, depression, diabetes, trouble with
the digestive system or even cardiovascular
problems, along with other mental illnesses.
21. Stress as an environmental event
• Stress as the “thing” or “event” that triggers the
adaptive physiological and psychological response
in the individual.
• The event is one that create change in the life
pattern of the individual, requires significant
adjustment in the life style, and taxes available
personal resource.
• The change can be either positive, such as
accomplishing an outstanding personal
achievement, or negative, such as being fired from
a job.
22. • Holmes and Rahe(1967) devised the social
readjustment rating scale. Numerical values
were assigned to various events, or changes, that
are common in people’s lives.
• Holmes and Rahe concluded that the higher
the score on the social readjustment rating
scale, the greater the susceptibility of the
individual to physical or psychological illness.
23.
24. Stress as a transaction between the
individual and the environment
• Personal characteristics as well as the
nature of the environmental event are
considered.
(Lazarus& Folkman,1984)
25. Precipitating event
A precipitating event is a stimulus arising from the
internal or external environment and is perceived
by the individual in a specific manner.
Determination that a particular
person/environment relationship is stressful
depends upon the cognitive appraisal of the
situation by the individual.

i ndi vi dual ’s per cept i on of t he event .
27. Predisposing factors
Types of precipitating factors include
genetic influences, past experiences and
existing conditions.
• Genetic influences are those circumstances of an
individual’s life that are acquired by heredity.
Examples include family history of physical and
psychological conditions and the individual’s
temperament.
28. • Past experiences are occurances that result in
learned patterns that can influence an individual’s
adaptation response.
• They include previous exposure to the stressor,
learned coping responses, and degree of
adaptation to previous experiences.
29. • Existing conditions incorporate vulnerabilities that
influence the adequacy of the individual’s physical ,
psychological and social resources for dealing with
adaptive demands.
• Examples include current health status, motivation,
developmental maturity, severity and duration of the
stressor, financial and educational resources, age,
existing coping strategies, and a support system of
caring others.

34. PSYCHOSOMATIC MODEL
• Psychic phase: It is marked by mild, but
persistent psychological and behavioral symptoms
of stress like irritability, disturbed sleep, anorexia
etc.
• Psychosomatic phase: If stress condition
continues, these symptoms become more
pronounced along with beginning of generalized
physiological symptoms like occasional
hypertension, tremors etc.
35. • Somatic phase: It is marked by increased
function of organ. At this stage, one begins to
identify beginning of a disease stage.
• Organic phase: It is marked by full
involvement of a so called disease state with
physiological changes like ulcerated stomach
or chronic hypertension.
PSYCHOSOMATIC MODEL
36. CAUSES OF STRESS
• 1.Catastrophs
• 2.Major life changes
• 3.Daily hassles
37. Catastrophe
A catastrophe is a sudden, often life-
threatening calamity or disaster that pushes
people to the outer limits of their coping
capability.
Catastrophes include natural disasters—such as
earthquakes, tornadoes, fires, floods, and

accidents, violent physical attacks, and sexual
assaults.
Catastrophes often continue to affect their victims’
mental health long after the event has ended.
