Motility Disorders: Diagnosis and Management
Recognize symptoms such as dysphagia, bloating, and altered bowel habits indicative of motility issues. Assess movement through the digestive tract to diagnose motility disorders accurately. Innovative technology aids in studying the entire gastrointestinal transit in a non-invasive manner. Tailored management may include dietary adjustments, medications, or surgical interventions based on the underlying cause. Address conditions like achalasia or esophageal spasm through targeted therapies. Dietary modifications, medications, and in severe cases, gastric electrical stimulation may be considered. Targeted treatments address issues like pseudo-obstruction or colonic inertia. Collaboration among gastroenterologists, dietitians, and surgeons ensures comprehensive care. Empower individuals with motility disorders through education, fostering active participation in their care and management.

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.
