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!

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.

2. Trachea anatomy:
Cylindrical structure but is flattened posteriorly
Measures about 11 cm in length
Starts from the inferior part of the larynx(cricoid
cartilage) in the neck, opposite the C6 vertebra,
to the inter-vertebral disc between T4-T5
vertebrae in the thorax
In cross-section, it is D-shaped, with incomplete
cartilaginous rings anteriorly and laterally, and a
straight membranous wall posteriorly
(chondromembranous)
3.
4.
5. Definition:
It is a surgical procedure to
open a direct airway through
an incision in the trachea.
6. Procedure:
The operation should be carried out under
general anesthesia and endotracheal
intubation.
The neck should be extended, the head should
be straight (not turned to one side).
Transverse incision is preferable to vertical
incision.
8. The incision should be centered midway
between the cricoid cartilage and sternal notch .
The strap muscles are identified and retracted
laterally and the thyroid isthmus is divided.
The cricoid must be identified by palpation and
the tracheal rings counted.
An opening is made into the trachea and stitch is
made in place.
9.
10. Indications:
Obstruction of the upper airway like foreign body,
trauma, infection, laryngeal tumors and facial
fractures.
Impaired respiratory function (head trauma lead to
unconsciousness, bulbar poliomyelitis).
To assist weaning from ventilation support in patient
in the ICU.
To help clear secretions in the upper airway.
Prophylaxis (as in preparation for extensive head and
neck procedures and the convalescent period)
12. Early complications:
The critical period is the first 48 hrs.
Tube obstruction or displacement.
Bleeding from tracheostomy site.
Infection (Tracheitis, Cellulites).
Aspiration.
Plugging with mucus .
Subcutaneous emphysema .
Atelectasis.
13. Late complicatios:
Tracheal stenosis.
Fistula formation (tracheo-cutaneous or
trachea-esophagus or trachea-innominate).
Airway obstruction with aspiration.
Bleeding.
Scarring.
Tracheomalacia.
15. This can be expected when patient
has :
Good cough.
Good ABGs (relative, for the patient).
Clear lungs.
No pathogens in sputum.
16. Contraindications:
A strong relative contraindication to discrete
surgical access to the airway is the
anticipation that the blockage is a laryngeal
carcinoma.
No absolute contraindications
