Endometriosis: Diagnosis, Treatment, and Long-Term Management
Endometriosis is a prevalent illness that can negatively impact quality of life, involve several organ systems, and cause pelvic pain and infertility.There is presently no cure for endometriosis, and its etiology is not entirely understood. While a clear histological diagnosis can be obtained through surgery, the majority of worldwide recommendations currently suggest a nonsurgical diagnosis based on physical examination findings, imaging results, and symptoms in order to minimize therapeutic delays. In order to treat persistent pain resulting from central sensitization and nociplastic pain processes, a multidisciplinary approach may be necessary in addition to hormone suppression, surgery, or a combination of the two.

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.
