Precision in Endodontics: Exploring Obturation Strategies
Obturation, or the filling of the root canal system, is a critical step in endodontic treatment to ensure the success of the procedure. Precision in obturation is essential to achieve optimal seal and prevent reinfection of the root canal system. Various obturation strategies have been developed to enhance precision and improve treatment outcomes in endodontics. The choice of obturation technique depends on factors such as root canal anatomy, operator skill, and the specific needs of the patient. The lateral condensation technique is a commonly used obturation method that involves the placement of a master cone and accessory cones. Precision in lateral condensation relies on proper selection of cone sizes and accurate compaction of the gutta-percha. Warm vertical compaction is another popular obturation technique that uses heat and pressure to compact gutta-percha in the root canal. Obtura II and System B are examples of devices commonly used for warm vertical compaction. The single-cone technique is a simplified obturation method that involves using a single, larger gutta-percha cone to fill the root canal.

Gynaecologist’s Guide to Ovarian Cancer
Join us for a special webinar on World Ovarian Cancer Day, titled "Gynaecologist’s Guide to Ovarian Cancer." This expert-led session will delve into the latest advancements in early diagnosis, risk stratification, and evidence-based management of ovarian cancer. 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.
