Diabetes Care: Insulin Management Techniques
There are various types of insulin, including rapid-acting, short-acting, intermediate-acting, and long-acting, each with different onset and duration of action. Basal-Bolus Regimen technique involves using both basal (long-acting) and bolus (rapid-acting) insulin to mimic the body's natural insulin release pattern, providing continuous background insulin and mealtime coverage. Insulin pens are convenient and portable devices for administering insulin. They allow for precise dosage adjustments and discreet insulin delivery. Insulin pumps deliver a continuous infusion of rapid-acting insulin, offering flexibility in insulin dosing and mealtime boluses, particularly beneficial for type 1 diabetes management. Patients on insulin learn to estimate and match their insulin dose to the amount of carbohydrates consumed in meals and snacks, improving glycemic control.Rotating injection sites (abdomen, thighs, buttocks, arms) helps prevent lipohypertrophy and ensures optimal insulin absorption. Individualized glycemic targets are set based on age, diabetes type, and overall health, with the aim of achieving optimal blood glucose control while minimizing hypoglycemia.

Upcoming Case Discussions
Gynaecologist’s Guide to Ovarian Cancer
Join us for a special webinar on World Ovarian Cancer Day, titled "Gynaecologist’s Guide to Ovarian Cancer." This expert-led session will delve into the latest advancements in early diagnosis, risk stratification, and evidence-based management of ovarian cancer. Tailored for gynecologists and healthcare professionals, the session will also explore real-world case discussions and multidisciplinary treatment approaches. Let’s come together to raise awareness and empower clinicians in the fight against this silent but deadly disease
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.
