Introduction to Neurology
Neurology is the branch of medicine focused on diagnosing and treating disorders of the nervous system, encompassing the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves, and muscles. Neurologists specialize in understanding the complex interplay of neurological functions and addressing a wide range of conditions such as epilepsy, stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and neuropathies. Through clinical assessment, advanced imaging techniques like MRI and CT scans, and specialized tests including electroencephalography (EEG) and electromyography (EMG), neurologists work to pinpoint the underlying causes of neurological symptoms like headaches, seizures, movement disorders, and cognitive impairment. Treatment strategies may involve medications, physical therapy, lifestyle modifications, and in some cases, surgical interventions. With the ongoing advancements in both diagnostic tools and therapeutic approaches, neurology plays a crucial role in enhancing our understanding of the nervous system and improving the lives of those affected by neurological disorders.

Upcoming Case Discussions
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.
