Case based approach to Glomerular Disorders
A case-based approach to Glomerular Disorder involves a detailed patient history and clinical presentation to identify the underlying type of glomerulopathy. Such an approach often begins with the analysis of symptoms like edema, hematuria, and proteinuria, coupled with laboratory assessments including serum creatinine, electrolytes, and urine analysis. Renal biopsy plays a crucial role in diagnosing the specific type of glomerular disease, whether it's a primary disorder like Minimal Change Disease, Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis, or a systemic condition like Lupus Nephritis. The case discussion would also encompass treatment strategies tailored to the specific disorder, including corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, or supportive treatments like antihypertensives and dietary modifications. Regular monitoring for renal function and potential complications is also a critical part of management in these cases.

Massive Transfusion Protocol
Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) is a standardized medical procedure activated in cases of severe hemorrhage, typically involving the rapid administration of large volumes of blood products. The goal is to restore circulating volume, maintain hemostasis, and prevent the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy. MTP usually involves a balanced ratio of packed red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, often in a 1:1:1 ratio. Early activation and coordination among trauma teams, laboratory services, and blood banks are essential for its success.
Sleep Apnea and Daytime Fatigue
Sleep Disorder Breathing is a term for a group of conditions with abnormal breathing patterns during sleep. This affects everyday functioning and well being.There are few types of SDB which include upper airways resistance, hypopnea, apnea, catathrenia and heavy snoring.
