Gynecological Applications for Vascular Surgery
While vascular surgery is commonly associated with arterial and venous conditions, it also plays a role in various gynecological applications. One notable application is the treatment of pelvic congestion syndrome (PCS), a condition often characterized by chronic pelvic pain related to dilated pelvic veins. Vascular interventions, such as embolization or sclerotherapy, can be employed to address venous insufficiency and alleviate symptoms in PCS patients. Additionally, vascular surgery may be utilized in the management of certain gynecological tumors, such as uterine fibroids, where embolization can be performed to shrink the tumors by blocking their blood supply. These minimally invasive vascular procedures offer alternative options for gynecological conditions, providing effective outcomes with reduced recovery times and complications compared to traditional surgical approaches. Collaboration between gynecologists and vascular surgeons is crucial for comprehensive care in these specific applications.

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.
