Myocarditis: Case Report
Myocarditis is a condition that occurs when there is inflammation in the heart muscle. The causes of myocarditis can vary widely and include viral infections, bacterial infections, fungal infections, drug reactions, and autoimmune disorders. Symptoms of myocarditis can include chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, palpitations, and fever. Treatment of myocarditis depends on the underlying cause, but may involve rest, medications to reduce inflammation or control the immune system, and supportive care such as fluids and oxygen. In severe cases of myocarditis, complications can occur such as heart failure, arrhythmias, and even sudden cardiac death. Prevention of myocarditis involves avoiding exposure to infectious agents and seeking prompt medical attention if symptoms develop.

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

This affects everyday functioning and well being.There are few types of SDB which include upper airways resistance, hypopnea, apnea, catathrenia and heavy snoring.
