Suspension therapy uses a strap system hanging from the ceiling to support the body while exercising. It allows active movement while reducing stress on stabilizing muscles. Exercises are performed by holding the straps with hands or feet while maintaining contact with the ground. Benefits include active participation to strengthen muscles, relaxation through support, and independence after instruction. Different types of fixation allow vertical movement like a pendulum or movement on a flat plane for maximum joint movement. Suspension training is an alternative to machines that challenges the body in new ways.

Shoulder open and closed kinematic chain-
Open kinematic chain-
One end of the series is free to move while the other is fixed, movement can take place at one joint without causing motion at other joints in the chain, although the segments will move in space.
Closed kinematic chain-
Both ends of the chain are fixed, movement at one joint not only moves one or more other segments in space but will also create movement in one or more other joints in the chain.
• Kinetic chain rehabilitation exercises use functional movement patterns to facilitate scapular motion and then to strengthen scapular musculature.
• Closed chain exercises is a co-contraction of both the agonist and the antagonist muscle groups that help enhance stability of GH joint.
• Open chain exercises have increased stress forces against glenohumeral joint
Traction is a physical force which brings about separation of the joint through the bone along its long axis. This can be done manually or mechanically and provides several beneficial effects.

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

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.

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.
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

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!

Knee anatomy and clinical tests 2024.pdfvimalpl1234
This includes all relevant anatomy and clinical tests compiled from standard textbooks, Campbell,netter etc..It is comprehensive and best suited for orthopaedicians and orthopaedic residents.
2. Introduction
• The technique is used to free a body part from the
resistance of friction while it is moving the part.
• It is suspended in a sling attached to a rope that is fix
to an appropriate point above the body segment.
• Suspension training is a tool that uses body weight
and gravity to challenge the neuromuscular system in
ways conventional exercises are unable to
accomplish.
3. • The suspension trainer provides an alternative to
working out with an exercise machine.
• The system-which uses a device that hangs from the
ceiling-was developed by Navy Seals.
4.
5. • Suspension training begins with an upside-down, Y-
shaped strap system hanging securely overhead.
• Exercises involve the user holding on with one or two
hands or feet with one or two limbs contacting the
ground.
• The user must always be in contact with the ground,
except when performing more advanced plyometric
physiotherapy exercises.
6. • Benefits of Suspension form Exercise
- Active participation is required thus the patient learn
to use the appropriate muscle for desired movement
- Relaxation is promoted through secure support and
smooth rhythmic motion
- Little work is required of stabilizing muscles because
the part is supported
7. - Modification can be made to the system to provide
grades of exercise resistance
- After instruction the patient can often work
independently of a therapist
- Suspension therapy is a form of assisted exercise
8. • Different types of Ropes, slings, pullies and clips are
used to suspend body part
9. Types of suspension
• Vertical fixation: The rope is fixed so that it hangs
vertically above the centre of gravity of the part to be
suspended.
• The centre of gravity of each part of the body is, at
the junction of the upper and middle third.
• The point of attachment of the rope is over the center
of gravity of the moving segment.
10. • The part can then move like a pendulum. The
movement is small range. This type is used for
support.
11. • Axial fixation
• This occurs when all the ropes supporting a part are
attached to one ‘S’ hook which is fixed to a point
immediately above the centre of the joint The point of
attachment of the all the rope supporting the part is
above the axis of the joint to be moved.
12. • The part will move on a flat plan parallel to the floor
this type of fixation allows for maximum movement
of the joint
