Alzheimer's disease is a progressive brain disorder that causes memory loss and cognitive decline. It is the most common form of dementia. The disease is named after Dr. Alois Alzheimer, who first described it in 1906. Symptoms start slowly and get worse over time, becoming severe enough to interfere with daily tasks. Currently, there is no cure for Alzheimer's disease, but medications and lifestyle changes can help manage symptoms for some time. More research is still needed as Alzheimer's prevalence is rising globally due to increased life expectancy.
1. The document discusses early signs of Alzheimer's disease, including forgetting recently learned information, relying on memory aids, and asking the same questions repeatedly.
2. People with Alzheimer's may experience problems with planning, solving problems, concentrating and completing familiar tasks. They can lose track of time and dates.
3. Changes in mood and personality are also common, with increased confusion, suspicion, depression or anxiety. Withdrawal from social and work activities may occur.
Memory loss that disrupts daily life is one of the most common early signs of Alzheimer's disease. The document outlines 10 warning signs, including challenges with planning or problem-solving, difficulty completing familiar tasks, confusion with time or place, and changes in mood and personality. It is important to look out for these signs, as most people with Alzheimer's are unaware they have the disease.

Go Get It! Your Guide to Finding Purpose, Setting Goals and Maintaining SuccessKarl Bimshas Consulting
This document provides guidance on finding purpose and setting goals. It encourages the reader to reassess their current goals and life situation, renew their desires, and repair broken things. It also discusses responding positively to life events rather than reacting, and provides a brief story about different responses to a snake bite that represents how people respond to challenges. The document promotes taking action on goals, noticing if it's working, and trying something different if it's not working. It suggests visualizing success and asking reflective questions to maintain a positive mindset.
Alzheimer's disease typically develops slowly and gradually declines cognitive abilities like memory and reasoning. It progresses through seven stages from mild to very severe cognitive decline. In the early stages, symptoms are mild like forgetfulness but can be diagnosed. Later stages involve severe memory loss, confusion, problems with basic tasks, and eventually loss of motor function and ability to respond to the environment. The stages provide a framework for understanding how the disease may progress but can vary between individuals.
This document provides information about three common definitions of psychological abnormality: deviation from social norms, failure to function adequately, and deviation from ideal mental health. Each definition is outlined and their limitations are discussed. Limitations include how the definitions can be subjective, culturally dependent, and may pathologize certain behaviors that are simply deviations rather than signs of psychological disorders. The document aims to evaluate these definitions of abnormality and their use in defining and explaining abnormal psychology.

The Ultimate Guide in Setting Up Market Research System in Health-TechGokul Rangarajan
How to effectively start market research in the health tech industry by defining objectives, crafting problem statements, selecting methods, identifying data collection sources, and setting clear timelines. This guide covers all the preliminary steps needed to lay a strong foundation for your research.
"Market Research it too text-booky, I am in the market for a decade, I am living research book" this is what the founder I met on the event claimed, few of my colleagues rolled their eyes. Its true that one cannot over look the real life experience, but one cannot out beat structured gold mine of market research.
Many 0 to 1 startup founders often overlook market research, but this critical step can make or break a venture, especially in health tech.
But Why do they skip it?
Limited resources—time, money, and manpower—are common culprits.
"In fact, a survey by CB Insights found that 42% of startups fail due to no market need, which is like building a spaceship to Mars only to realise you forgot the fuel."
Sudharsan Srinivasan
Operational Partner Pitchworks VC Studio
Overconfidence in their product’s success leads founders to assume it will naturally find its market, especially in health tech where patient needs, entire system issues and regulatory requirements are as complex as trying to perform brain surgery with a butter knife. Additionally, the pressure to launch quickly and the belief in their own intuition further contribute to this oversight. Yet, thorough market research in health tech could be the key to transforming a startup's vision into a life-saving reality, instead of a medical mishap waiting to happen.
Example of Market Research working
Innovaccer, founded by Abhinav Shashank in 2014, focuses on improving healthcare delivery through data-driven insights and interoperability solutions. Before launching their platform, Innovaccer conducted extensive market research to understand the challenges faced by healthcare organizations and the potential for innovation in healthcare IT.
Identifying Pain Points: Innovaccer surveyed healthcare providers to understand their difficulties with data integration, care coordination, and patient engagement. They found widespread frustration with siloed systems and inefficient workflows.
Competitive Analysis: Analyzed competitors offering similar solutions in healthcare analytics and interoperability. Identified gaps in comprehensive data aggregation, real-time analytics, and actionable insights.
Regulatory Compliance: Ensured their platform complied with HIPAA and other healthcare data privacy regulations. This compliance was crucial to gaining trust from healthcare providers wary of data security issues.
Customer Validation: Conducted pilot programs with several healthcare organizations to validate the platform's effectiveness in improving care outcomes and operational efficiency. Gathered feedback to refine features and user interface.

This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is the summary of hypotension:
Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is when the pressure of blood circulating in the body is lower than normal or expected. It's only a problem if it negatively impacts the body and causes symptoms. Normal blood pressure is usually between 90/60 mmHg and 120/80 mmHg, but pressures below 90/60 are generally considered hypotensive.
