The Role of Embryologists in ART
Embryologists play a pivotal role in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART), making significant contributions to the success of procedures like in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). As highly trained laboratory professionals, they handle critical stages of the reproductive process, including egg retrieval, fertilization, embryo culture, and cryopreservation. Embryologists assess egg and sperm quality, facilitate fertilization through advanced techniques, and closely monitor embryo development, ensuring optimal conditions for growth in the lab. Their expertise in embryo grading helps determine which embryos are most viable for transfer, increasing the chances of successful pregnancies.

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.
