Importance of Holistic Care in Cancer: Oncologist’s Perspective
Holistic care in cancer emphasizes treating the whole person, not just the disease, by considering physical, emotional, social, and spiritual aspects. It recognizes that cancer affects every aspect of a person's life and aims to improve overall well-being alongside medical treatments. Holistic care focuses on managing symptoms, reducing treatment side effects, and enhancing quality of life. It incorporates complementary therapies such as acupuncture, massage, meditation, and nutritional counseling to support conventional treatments. Psychological support is integral to holistic care, addressing anxiety, depression, and coping strategies during diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship. Holistic care encourages open communication between patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers to ensure personalized and patient-centered treatment plans. It fosters a sense of empowerment and control for patients, helping them actively participate in decision-making and self-care.
Postpartum Haemorrhage (PPH)
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is a significant complication following childbirth, characterized by excessive bleeding within 24 hours of delivery. It's a leading cause of maternal mortality globally. PPH can occur due to various factors, including uterine atony (failure of the uterus to contract), trauma during childbirth, retained placental tissue, or coagulation disorders. Prompt recognition and intervention are crucial to prevent severe consequences. Management typically involve uterine massage, administration of uterotonic medications, uterine artery embolization, or, in severe cases, surgical interventions like hysterectomy. Timely and effective management strategies are essential to reduce maternal morbidity and mortality associated with PPH.
