Innovations in Cancer Therapy
Innovations in Cancer Therapy have revolutionized treatment by offering more precise, effective, and less invasive options. Immunotherapy, including checkpoint inhibitors and CAR-T cell therapy, enhances the body's natural defense against cancer. Targeted therapies focus on specific genetic mutations, minimizing side effects compared to traditional treatments. Personalized medicine tailors treatments based on a patient’s genetic profile, improving outcomes. Advancements in radiation therapy now allow for higher precision with minimal damage to healthy tissues. Additionally, nanotechnology and AI-driven drug discovery are accelerating the development of novel cancer treatments, paving the way for more efficient and patient-centric care.

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.
