Stomach Cancer: Effects and Management
The location of the stomach cancer and the extent of its spread determine how it is treated. Stomach cancer is also referred to as gastric cancer. However, other elements including a person's age, general health, and preferences might also be crucial. If possible, surgery to remove the cancer is usually included in treatment since it provides the highest chance for long-term survival. However, if the cancer has progressed far or if a person is not in good enough health for it, surgery might not be a good option. In addition to or instead of surgery, other therapies like chemotherapy and radiation therapy are frequently used in medical care. In some circumstances, newer therapies including immunotherapy and medicines with specific targets may be beneficial.

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.
