Case Discussion on Stroke in Children
Stroke is a condition that is often associated with older adults, but it can also occur in children. A stroke in children occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, causing brain damage. There are two types of stroke in children, ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke. Ischemic stroke is the most common type and occurs when a blood clot blocks a blood vessel in the brain, while hemorrhagic stroke occurs when a blood vessel in the brain ruptures and causes bleeding. The causes of stroke in children can vary, but some common risk factors include congenital heart disease, sickle cell anemia, and infection. Symptoms of a stroke in children may include weakness or numbness on one side of the body, difficulty speaking or understanding language, and severe headaches. Treatment for a stroke in children typically involves medications to dissolve blood clots or prevent further blood clots from forming, as well as rehabilitation to help the child regain lost abilities. It is important for parents and caregivers to be aware of the signs and symptoms of stroke in children, as early intervention can improve outcomes.

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. People suffering with SDB can have daytime symptoms that result in poor sleep also. There can also be sleepiness, depressed mood, irritability and cognitive dysfunction.
