Musculoskeletal screening, assessment and RT
Musculoskeletal screening is a systematic examination of the bones, joints, and muscles. The screening typically includes a physical exam, review of medical history, and observation of movement patterns. The assessment helps to determine the cause of pain or injury and guide the development of an appropriate treatment plan. Rehabilitation (RT) is the process of improving or restoring movement, strength, and function to an affected area of the body. The ultimate goal of RT is to reduce pain and improve mobility, allowing for a return to normal activities. RT may be prescribed for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including arthritis, back pain, and sports injuries.

Upcoming Case Discussions
H. pylori Treatment with PYELRA®: Best Practices
PYLERA® is a medication used for the treatment of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection, a common cause of stomach ulcers and gastritis. It contains a combination of three active ingredients: bismuth subcitrate potassium, metronidazole, and tetracycline. This combination works synergistically to eradicate H. pylori bacteria and reduce associated symptoms. Treatment with PYLERA® typically involves taking multiple capsules four times a day for a specified duration, as prescribed by a healthcare provider. It is important to follow the treatment regimen as directed and to discuss potential side effects
Fluid Management and Hemodynamic Optimization
Fluid management and hemodynamic optimization are crucial components of patient care in various clinical settings, particularly in critical care, perioperative care, and the management of sepsis and shock. The goal of fluid management is to achieve an optimal balance between fluid administration and removal, ensuring adequate tissue perfusion while minimizing complications associated with fluid overload or depletion. This involves assessing the patient's fluid status, monitoring hemodynamic parameters such as blood pressure, heart rate, cardiac output, and oxygen delivery, and tailoring fluid therapy accordingly. Strategies for hemodynamic optimization may include the use of fluid resuscitation, vasopressors, inotropes, and other interventions aimed at maintaining organ perfusion and function. However, it's essential to individualize treatment based on the patient's specific condition, comorbidities, and response to therapy, while also considering potential risks such as pulmonary edema, renal impairment, and tissue ischemia. Effective fluid management and hemodynamic optimization require a multidisciplinary approach, close monitoring, and ongoing reassessment to optimize patient outcomes while minimizing complications.
Ulcerative colitis: Diagnosis & Management
Ulcerative colitis is diagnosed through a combination of clinical evaluation, laboratory tests, imaging studies, and endoscopic examination of the colon. Key diagnostic tests include stool studies to rule out infections, blood tests for inflammatory markers like C-reactive protein and fecal calprotectin, and colonoscopy with biopsy to visualize the colon and confirm the diagnosis. Imaging studies like CT scans or MRI may be used to assess disease severity and complications such as toxic megacolon or perforation. Management of ulcerative colitis involves a step-wise approach, starting with anti-inflammatory medications like aminosalicylates for mild to moderate disease.Immunosuppressants such as corticosteroids, thiopurines, or biologics (e.g., anti-TNF agents) are used for moderate to severe disease or if patients do not respond to first-line therapy. Regular monitoring of disease activity through symptom assessment, blood tests, and endoscopic evaluation is crucial for disease management and to prevent complications.
Micronutrient Deficiencies
Micronutrient deficiencies refer to insufficient intake or absorption of essential vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, vitamin D, iron, iodine, and zinc, among others. These deficiencies can lead to a range of health problems, such as anemia, impaired immune function, poor bone health, and developmental delays. Micronutrient deficiencies are often prevalent in populations with limited access to diverse and nutritious foods, as well as in individuals with certain medical conditions or dietary restrictions. Addressing micronutrient deficiencies requires a multifaceted approach, including dietary diversification, food fortification, supplementation, and public health interventions aimed at improving access to nutritious foods and promoting healthy eating habits.
Postpartum Haemorrhage (PPH)
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a significant complication following childbirth, characterized by excessive bleeding within 24 hours of delivery. It's a leading cause of maternal mortality globally. PPH can occur due to various factors, including uterine atony (failure of the uterus to contract), trauma during childbirth, retained placental tissue, or coagulation disorders. Prompt recognition and intervention are crucial to prevent severe consequences. Management typically involve uterine massage, administration of uterotonic medications, uterine artery embolization, or, in severe cases, surgical interventions like hysterectomy. Timely and effective management strategies are essential to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality associated with PPH.

Musculoskeletal screening is a systematic examination of the bones, joints, and muscles. The screening typically includes a physical exam, review of medical history, and observation of movement patterns. The assessment helps to determine the cause of pain or injury and guide the development of an appropriate treatment plan. Rehabilitation (RT) is the process of improving or restoring movement, strength, and function to an affected area of the body. The ultimate goal of RT is to reduce pain and improve mobility, allowing for a return to normal activities. RT may be prescribed for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including arthritis, back pain, and sports injuries.
