Oxygen Therapy : All you need to know
Oxygen therapy is a medical intervention that involves the administration of oxygen at a higher concentration than what is present in ambient air to patients with respiratory or cardiovascular conditions. It is delivered through various methods, including nasal cannulas, oxygen masks, or ventilators, to improve oxygen saturation in the blood. Oxygen therapy is crucial in managing conditions like chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, and severe respiratory distress, helping patients breathe more comfortably and ensuring adequate oxygen supply to vital organs. Treatment duration and oxygen flow rates are tailored to individual patient needs, and close monitoring is essential to optimize therapy effectiveness while avoiding potential complications associated with excessive oxygen levels.

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.
