NCD from Public Health Perspective
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are chronic conditions arising from genetic, behavioral, and environmental factors, including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases, and diabetes. Unlike infectious diseases, NCDs are not contagious and develop gradually due to lifestyle choices like poor diet, lack of exercise, and smoking. They pose a significant global health challenge, requiring awareness campaigns, lifestyle changes, and improved healthcare access for prevention and management. Addressing NCDs demands collaborative efforts from governments, healthcare systems, and individuals to alleviate their long-term impact on health and well-being.
Exploring career paths beyond PGNEET: Alternative opportunities for Medical Graduates
Management of early triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) requires a comprehensive approach to ensure optimal outcomes. Early TNBC refers to breast cancer that is diagnosed at an early stage, before it has spread to lymph nodes or distant sites. The management of early TNBC typically involves a combination of surgery, radiation therapy, and systemic treatments. Surgery is the primary treatment for early TNBC and usually involves a lumpectomy or mastectomy. Lumpectomy involves removing the tumor and a small margin of surrounding healthy tissue, while mastectomy involves removing the entire breast. The choice between lumpectomy and mastectomy depends on various factors, including tumor size, location, and patient preference. Following surgery, radiation therapy is often recommended to reduce the risk of cancer recurrence in the breast. Systemic treatments, such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and hormonal therapy, are commonly used in the management of early TNBC.
Anaesthesia techniques for surgical procedures
Anaesthesia techniques aim to induce temporary unconsciousness and pain relief during surgical procedures. General anaesthesia is the most common technique, involving a combination of intravenous drugs and inhaled gases to render the patient unconscious. Monitored Anaesthesia Care (MAC) involves administering sedatives and pain medications to keep the patient relaxed and comfortable during a procedure. Balanced anaesthesia combines different medications to achieve optimal pain control, muscle relaxation, and sedation. Pre-operative assessment is crucial to evaluate the patient's overall health, allergies, and any potential risks associated with anaesthesia. Anaesthesiologists carefully monitor the patient's vital signs, such as heart rate, blood pressure, and oxygen levels throughout the procedure. Inhalation agents like sevoflurane and desflurane are commonly used during general anaesthesia to maintain unconsciousness.
