STAR HOSPITALS has trained over 3000 people in BLS and CPR

New Delhi (India) July 26 : Imagine a bustling airport where a 42-year-old man suddenly collapses. Amidst the chaos, an unknown hero steps forward, performs CPR with precision, and saves the man’s life. This story, while extraordinary, is not unique. It highlights the life-saving power of CPR, a skill anyone can learn and use during critical moments.

Consider another heart-stopping incident: a 32-year-old woman faints at a metro station. Panic spreads among the commuters until a brave fellow traveler steps forward and performs CPR. Her life is saved thanks to the quick thinking and training of a stranger.

Then there’s the story of a 50-year-old man who, recognizing the early symptoms of a heart attack, drives himself 8 kilometers to the nearest hospital. His quick action and knowledge of Basic Life Support (BLS) protocols, learned from a CPR course, ensure he receives the medical care he needs in time.

These stories, often highlighted in the news, underscore a vital truth: knowing CPR can make the difference between life and death. Take Mr. Kartik, for example. After attending a BLS and CPR training program at Star Hospitals, he was able to act swiftly when his father showed early signs of a stroke. His newly acquired skills helped him save his father’s life and preserve his quality of life.

These real-life heroes inspire us all. Their stories illustrate the profound impact that CPR knowledge can have, not just on the lives of strangers but on our loved ones as well. At Star Hospitals, we are deeply committed to spreading this crucial knowledge. Recognized by the American Heart Association as an ACLS and BLS training center, Star Hospitals has trained over 3000 people in BLS and CPR in the past ten months alone.

As we observe World CPR Day, we must ask ourselves: How prepared are we to respond in a life-threatening emergency? Do we possess the skills that could potentially save a life? Learning CPR is as essential as learning to drive; it equips us to navigate emergencies with confidence and competence.

Understanding CPR: A Lifesaving Procedure

CPR, or Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, is an emergency life-saving procedure performed when someone’s breathing or heartbeat has stopped. This may happen due to medical emergencies like electric shock, heart attack, or drowning. CPR combines rescue breathing and chest compressions, aiming to restore oxygenated blood flow to the brain and vital organs until professional medical help arrives.

The beauty of CPR lies in its accessibility. Anyone can learn and independently perform CPR. With proper training, you can become a lifesaver for your friends, family, or even a stranger in need. At Star Hospitals, we offer free BLS and CPR training programs to empower as many individuals as possible with these vital skills. If you wish to participate and learn how to save lives, please reach out to our team.

This World CPR Day, let us pledge to equip ourselves with the knowledge and skills to make a difference. Together, we can create a community of lifesavers, ready to act when it matters most. Join us at Star Hospitals and be a part of this life-affirming mission.

Dr. Rahul Katta’s CPR Experience at 30,000 Feet

While flying from London to India over Europe at 30,000 feet, a call went out for help: “Is there a doctor on the flight?” A 60-year-old, fit male passenger was in cardiac arrest, with no pulse detected. Dr. Rahul Katta led a team of four other doctors to start CPR immediately. They carried on for 45 minutes and administered nearly 14 shocks with the defibrillator. By the time the flight landed in Italy, they had managed to restore his pulse.

Seven days later, Dr. Katta received a call from the patient’s daughter, and later from the patient himself. Remarkably, he had been out of the ICU in just three days and was able to reach out to thank them within a week. This incredible survival story exemplifies the power of hands-on CPR and defibrillation, exactly as taught in every CPR course at Star Hospitals. You have the power to save a life.

World IVF Day stands as a testament to the incredible strides we’ve made in reproductive medicine, offering hope and possibilities to countless individuals and couples dreaming of parenthood,” says Dr. Amreen Singh, a Fertility physician specializing in Obstetrics & Gynaecology. “In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a complex series of procedures used to help with fertility or prevent genetic problems and assist with the conception of a child. During IVF, mature eggs are collected from ovaries and fertilized by sperm in a lab. Then the fertilized egg (embryo) or eggs are transferred to a uterus. IVF involves multiple steps—ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, sperm retrieval, fertilization, and embryo transfer—and requires significant expertise and meticulous care.

In our field, innovation is the cornerstone of progress. We’ve moved from the early days of IVF to advanced techniques such as preimplantation genetic testing and cryopreservation, which have significantly improved success rates and patient outcomes. It’s not just about creating life; it’s about ensuring that every patient receives the personalized care and emotional support they need throughout their journey. Every success story is a reminder of the profound impact fertility treatments have on families and communities. As we celebrate World IVF Day, let us continue to push the boundaries of science and compassion, striving to make the dream of parenthood a reality for all. Together, we can turn hope into life.

New Delhi (India), July 25: NovaLead Pharma Private Limited (NovaLead), the pioneer of drug repurposing in India announced today that the drug regulator in India, CDSCO has approved their patented Repurposed Drug for treatment of Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU) which is a global unmet medical need. 

With over 15% -25% of diabetic patients suffering from DFU at least once in their lifetime, DFU is the most prevalent complication caused by chronic diabetes. The approval of NovaLead’s patented repurposed drug is significant because DFU is the leading cause for lower limb amputations globally, with about 100,000 annual incidences in India alone.

“The approval of this drug marks an important moment for people suffering from DFU, who until now had limited drug options for complete wound closure. Approval of this drug is also a demonstration of effective Public-Private partnership as its development was part funded by BIRAC, a govt. of India initiative.” said Supreet Deshpande, Chief Executive Officer at NovaLead Pharma Pvt. Ltd., Pune – India.

“Although it is a repurposed drug, we developed it as a new drug with comprehensive preclinical and clinical investigations, keeping patient safety at the forefront. Its approval is based on statistically significant positive results over standard of care treatment in a randomised, double blind Phase 3 clinical trial.” said Dr. Sudhir Kulkarni, Vice President- Discovery, at NovaLead. 

This drug is a novel topical gel formulation of Esmolol hydrochloride, which is already approved in several countries for cardiac conditions via intravenous injection. Thus, this novel topical gel discovered and developed by NovaLead is a new indication as well as new formulation to be first launched in India. NovaLead has been granted patents for this drug in several countries including regulated markets of USA, EU and Japan.

Atul Aslekar, COO of NovaLead, mentioned that “a start-up traversing the highly challenging drug development cycle right from discovery to approval, spanning over a decade and half, makes NovaLead a unique success story in Indian pharma”. 

“The drug will be made available to the patients of DFU in India by one of the leading Indian pharmaceutical companies through an exclusive IP licensing arrangement with NovaLead. Going forward, NovaLead will focus on the development of this repurposed drug for regulated markets of USA and Europe.” said Supreet Deshpande.

About Diabetic Foot Ulcer (DFU)

Over 537 million adults are living with diabetes globally and the number is predicted to rise to 643 million by 2030. About 15-25% of diabetics suffer from DFU, at least once in lifetime, with 25% of DFUs eventually requiring amputation. DFU is a leading cause of lower extremity amputation. The five-year mortality post amputation is 46%. DFU is a serious disease with very limited drug options and very high cost of treatment.

About the Drug (Topical gel of Esmolol Hydrochloride)

It will be a prescription medicine used to treat people with diabetic foot ulcer without active clinical infection. Infected DFUs need to be first treated for infection if existing and then put on the drug treatment for wound closure. A doctor will perform independent assessment of DFU to determine the dose to be applied topically on the patient’s DFU.  

About NovaLead Pharma Private Limited (NovaLead)

NovaLead is a pioneer of drug repurposing in India and one of the few companies globally to have completed the whole cycle from discovery to regulatory approval successfully for a repurposed drug. Headquartered in Pune, India NovaLead’s research focus is to find novel repurposed drug treatment for unmet medical needs.

New Delhi (India) July 24 : Mrs. Asma Kahali, International Consultant and Director of Administration at Rimbaa Rayaa World Solutions Pte. Ltd., a leading Singapore-based defence trader and facility mobilisation company, shared her positive outlook on India’s Pre-Budget 2024-2025 initiatives. Her insights highlight the immense potential for international collaboration and innovation in the defence and healthcare sectors.

“As a global consultant in defence and healthcare, I’m highly impressed by the strategic vision in India’s Pre-Budget 2024-2025. Prime Minister Modi’s initiatives to attract foreign technologies in these industries are commendable and forward-thinking.

The substantial increase in the Ministry of Defence budget to INR 6.21 lakh crore underscores India’s commitment to modernizing its defence capabilities. This significant investment, paired with the ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ (Self-Reliant India) initiative, provides a fertile ground for international collaborations and technology transfers. The focus on deep-tech technologies for defence is particularly exciting. It offers numerous opportunities for companies like ours to contribute cutting-edge solutions and expertise. The government’s balanced approach to indigenization and openness to foreign partnerships creates a win-win scenario for both Indian and international players.

In the healthcare sector, initiatives to strengthen R&D and promote domestic manufacturing of medical devices are equally promising. The Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme and the development of MedTech Zones showcase India’s dedication to becoming a global hub for medical innovation. The focus on emerging technologies such as AI, IoT, and blockchain in healthcare presents immense opportunities for tech-driven solutions. As a Singaporean company, we see great potential in collaborating on these fronts, bringing our expertise to contribute to India’s healthcare transformation.

Prime Minister Modi’s vision of a ‘Self-Reliant India’ is not about isolation but an invitation for meaningful partnerships. The liberalized FDI policy, allowing 74% investment through the automatic route in defence, is a game-changer for companies like ours. It facilitates easier entry and deeper engagement with India’s burgeoning market.

Overall, this budget sets the stage for robust growth in both defence and healthcare sectors. It strikes a balance between the need for self-reliance and the benefits of global collaboration. We at Rimbaa Rayaa World Solutions are excited about the prospects of contributing to India’s journey towards becoming a global powerhouse in these critical sectors.”

This perspective by Mrs. Asma Kahali emphasizes the strategic importance of international collaborations and technology transfers, positioning India as a key player in the global defence and healthcare industries.

New Delhi (India) July 23 : Bariatric surgery is one of the most powerful tools in the fight against obesity and its related health conditions, particularly type 2 diabetes. It is a groundbreaking surgical approach that facilitates significant weight loss and, also positively impacts blood sugar control and overall metabolic health. 

At the forefront of this medical revolution is CKOSMIC Health City, led by the renowned Dr Amit Sood, recognized as the best weight loss surgeon. Having helped thousands of patients gain vitality, and an enriched life, Dr Amit Sood continues his work. 

For those who struggle with type 2 diabetes, bariatric surgery can be a lifesaver. Let’s explore how it treats diabetes and why CKOSMIC Health City is the premier destination for this life-changing procedure.

Understanding the Link Between Obesity and Diabetes

Obesity and type 2 diabetes are closely linked, with excess body weight being a major risk factor for the development of diabetes. When fat accumulates in the body, especially around the abdomen, it leads to insulin resistance, a condition where the body’s cells become less responsive to insulin. This resistance pushes the pancreas to produce more insulin to manage blood sugar levels, eventually leading to the exhaustion of insulin-producing cells and the onset of diabetes. 

How Bariatric Surgery Works

Bariatric surgery encompasses several procedures that alter the digestive system to aid weight loss. The most common types include gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, and adjustable gastric banding. These surgeries not only reduce the stomach’s capacity but also influence gut hormones and improve insulin sensitivity, which are critical factors in managing diabetes.

Here are some of the most common bariatric procedures offered by CKOSMIC Health City to patients with obesity and diabetes –

Gastric Bypass Surgery

Gastric bypass surgery is a procedure in which bariatric surgeons create a small pouch at the stomach top, and connect it to the small intestine directly. This bypasses a significant portion of the stomach and small intestine, reducing the amount of food intake and calorie absorption.

With this procedure, patients experience substantial weight loss, which can improve blood sugar levels rapidly. Dr Amit Sood recalls having helped many patients who experienced remission of type 2 diabetes within days of the surgery, even before significant weight loss. He attributes this immediate effect to changes in gut hormones and insulin sensitivity.

Sleeve Gastrectomy

With sleeve gastrectomy, Dr Amit Sood removes approximately 80% of the stomach, leaving a tube-like structure. This smaller stomach holds less food and influences gut hormones related to hunger and satiety.

The surgery also leads to significant improvements in blood sugar control. The reduction in stomach size and alterations in gut hormones help enhance insulin sensitivity and lower blood sugar levels.

Adjustable Gastric Banding

An inflatable band is wrapped around the upper portion of the stomach by the surgeon to form a little pouch during adjustable gastric banding. According to Dr Amit Sood, the surgeon can adjust the band to control the rate of food passage from the pouch to the rest of the stomach.

While this procedure results in less weight loss compared to gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy, it still positively impacts blood sugar control by promoting gradual weight loss and improving insulin sensitivity.

The Metabolic Impact of Bariatric Surgery

Bariatric surgery’s impact on diabetes goes beyond weight loss. The procedures affect various metabolic pathways that influence blood sugar levels. Key mechanisms among these include:

Hormonal Changes

Bariatric surgery alters gut hormones such as GLP-1 and PYY, that have a crucial role in insulin secretion and appetite regulation. These changes help improve blood sugar control and reduce the need for diabetes medications.

Increased Insulin Sensitivity

Weight loss and hormonal changes enhance the body’s sensitivity to insulin, allowing more effective regulation of blood sugar levels. Diabetics suffer from low insulin sensitivity, and this can be a significant improvement for them. 

Reduction in Inflammation

Obesity often brings chronic inflammation with it, which also contributes to insulin resistance. Bariatric surgery can help reduce inflammation, further improving insulin sensitivity.

New Delhi (India) July 23 : In recent years, mini gastric bypass (MGB) surgery has become popular not only for how well it achieves weight loss but also for what it can do for treating liver disease. As the prevalence of obesity continues to rise, understanding the multifaceted role of MGB in managing excess weight, and health complications like liver disease, that accompany it, becomes increasingly necessary. 

Let’s  look at the innovative aspects of mini gastric bypass surgery, and its impact on liver disease. Let’s begin. 

Unveiling the Connection: Obesity and Liver Disease

How Excess Weight Affects Liver Health

Obesity is a significant risk factor for a range of liver diseases, most notably non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD encompasses a spectrum of liver conditions, from simple steatosis (fatty liver) to non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), that can grow into fibrosis, cirrhosis, and even hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer). The pathophysiology of NAFLD is complex, involving insulin resistance, oxidative stress, and chronic inflammation. 

Insulin Resistance: The Silent Culprit

Insulin resistance is one of the main causes behind the development of NAFLD. By promoting lipolysis (breakdown of fats) in adipose tissue, it leads to increased free fatty acids in the liver. This development can result in hepatic steatosis, triggering inflammatory pathways, and contributing to liver damage and fibrosis. 

Weight loss through dietary change and physical activity can improve insulin sensitivity, but significant and sustained weight reduction is often challenging to achieve and maintain.

The Mechanisms Behind Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery

Beyond Caloric Restriction: Hormonal Changes

Mini gastric bypass in Punjab can create many metabolic changes beyond simply restricting calories, one of the key changes being the alteration in gut hormones. After the mini gastric bypass, there is an increase in hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and peptide YY (PYY), which enhance insulin secretion, reduce appetite, and improve glucose homeostasis. These hormonal shifts are beneficial for both weight loss and liver health.

The Microbiome Factor

Emerging research reveals that the gut microbiome plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of NAFLD. Obesity is associated with dysbiosis, an imbalance in the gut microbiota, which can contribute to liver inflammation and insulin resistance. Mini gastric bypass surgery has been shown to positively influence the gut microbiome, promoting a more favourable composition that supports metabolic health and reduces liver fat accumulation.

MGB and Liver Disease: Clinical Evidence

Long-Term Studies and Outcomes

Several long-term studies have demonstrated that MGB leads to substantial and sustained weight loss, which is crucial for managing NAFLD and NASH. In addition to weight loss, the surgery has been associated with significant reductions in liver enzymes (ALT and AST), indicative of decreased liver inflammation. Furthermore, improvements in liver histology, including reductions in steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis, have been documented.

Personalized Approach to Bariatric Surgery at CKOSMIC Health City

Comprehensive Preoperative EvaluationC

At CKOSMIC Health City, Dr Amit Sood has treated numerous patients with obesity-related liver disease, offering a comprehensive approach to bariatric surgery. Each patient undergoes a thorough preoperative evaluation, including liver function tests, imaging studies, and assessment of metabolic health. This ensures that the chosen surgical approach is tailored to the individual’s specific needs and health status.

Postoperative Care and Long-Term Monitoring

Postoperative care is crucial for the success of MGB in managing liver disease. Dr Amit Sood and his team provide extensive follow-up care, including dietary counselling, monitoring of liver function, and support for lifestyle modifications. Dr Amit Sood ensures that patients receive continuous care to sustain weight loss and liver health improvements.

Addressing Concerns: MGB Personalization

Patient Selection Criteria

While MGB offers numerous benefits, it is not suitable for everyone. Ideal candidates are those with a BMI over 30 with obesity-related health conditions or a BMI over 32. Patients with advanced liver disease require careful evaluation to determine the safety and efficacy of MGB. Dr. Amit Sood emphasizes the importance of individualized care, ensuring that each patient’s unique circumstances are considered.

Potential Risks and Complications

Like any surgical procedure, MGB carries potential risks and complications. These can include nutritional deficiencies, gastrointestinal symptoms, and surgical complications. However, with expert surgical techniques and comprehensive postoperative care, these risks can be minimized. CKOSMIC Health City’s track record of successful outcomes speaks to its commitment to patient safety and excellence in bariatric care.

Conclusion

Mini gastric bypass surgery represents a promising intervention for individuals struggling with obesity and liver disease. By addressing the underlying metabolic disturbances, MGB offers a pathway to improved liver health and overall well-being. CKOSMIC Health City, led by Dr Amit Sood, is at the forefront of this transformative approach, providing expert care and innovative solutions for patients. If you are battling obesity and liver disease, you can consult the best bariatric surgeon in Punjab at CKOSMIC Health City to explore how mini gastric bypass in Punjab can change your life.

New Delhi (India), July 18: Indian Skin Clinic, recognized as the best hair treatment clinic in Nagpur, is so happy to announce that the trademark for the PEP-GF 9/4 hair growth solution has been officially accepted! Now, individuals can be confident that they are getting a unique & innovative product when they choose Indian Skin Clinic! The experts at Indian Skin Clinic have been helping people with consistent hair growth results for the past 6 years.

Male/Female pattern hair loss- Get proven results with PEP-GF 9/4 therapy

Losing hair & receding hairline is the basic scenario among people of all ages. Certain factors like pollution, lifestyle, stress, and bad food habits are contributing factors to this. If anyone is experiencing extreme hair loss, PEP-GF 9/4 is an effective treatment that stimulates fibroblasts & gives the hairline a new lease of life. For a better understanding, here are a few questions that are being answered by the expert dermatologists of Indian Skin Clinic. Let’s take a look.

How are patients prepared for PRP hair growth solution?

To prepare PRP, medical experts collect a blood sample and separate the platelet content by placing it in a centrifuge. Once separated, PEP-GF 9/4 is applied to stimulate natural collagen production in the body, which helps minimize scalp scars and promotes healing. It reverses the effects of hair loss for multiple people & they can accomplish satisfactory results with consistent treatment. This 5-minute treatment works well when it is administrated with the other medicines & treatment plans. The effect of this therapy is holistic & rejuvenates the scalp health naturally.

What to know about PEP-GF 9/4 hair fall therapy?

The PEP-GF 9/4 is an effective hair fall & hair regrowth therapy that is ideal for patients suffering from alopecia. This is a revolutionary hair fall treatment developed by Dr. Ayesha Faizan, one of the best dermatologists in Nagpur. It stops hair fall and improves the density and thickness of the existing hair follicles.

How does this therapy benefit people suffering from hair loss?

The therapy gives better coverage to patients with extreme hair loss. Polypeptides that are present in PEP-GF 9/4 are present in the scalp; it is the enrichment of scalp skin with the polypeptides that causes hair growth. Since the polypeptides are normally present in the scalp, replenishing the scalp with these is not artificial & doesn’t have any side effects.

Who are the best candidates for PEP-GF 9/4 hair growth solution?

The PEP-GF 9/4 works well for people suffering from male-pattern baldness, female-pattern hair loss, or alopecia. It has demonstrated good results for those who are lacking hair growth due to chemotherapy. This advanced system is formulated by dermatologist Dr. Ayesha Faizan, and the key ingredients are copper peptide, fibroblast growth factor, and the world’s best uniquely formulated protein. She said, “This natural formulation is bio-identical & works best to offer the regenerative properties of the scalp. This ultimate solution for the rejuvenation of the scalp helps to treat people with stage 5 hair loss.”

What is a Female hair loss pattern & how can they benefit from PEP-GF 9/4 therapy?

Mostly, people go unnoticed for female hair loss because society gives lots of unnecessary reasons. There are lots of misconceptions in society regarding female hair loss, and it’s time to break all those misconceptions and educate people.  The female pattern of baldness is genuine, and it can be treatable by inhibiting the sufficient amount of collagen in the scalp. The collagen rejuvenates the scalp and can be used in conjunction with other treatments to improve hair growth. The key ingredient of PEPGF- Fibroblast Growth factor & Copper peptides have a long list of benefits.  It minimizes skin inflammation, lowers scars, and improves the intercellular peptide chemical messages that activate the immune cells. All these things prolong the anagen phase of the hair cycle. The uncountable amount of collagen & elastin that develop within the scalp naturally plays a key role in hair regeneration.

What are the primary causes of hair thinning & how does PEP-GF 9/4 help to recover?

The primary cause of hair thinning is issues in blood circulation. Poor blood circulation in the scalp can lead to multiple hair issues like hair loss & dandruff. The scalp supplies hair follicles with oxygen, nutrients, and essential oils. Poor circulation can prevent the roots from getting enough nourishment. Based on a study was done to measure the subcutaneous flow of the subjects with normal hair & those in whom there was established baldness & they found that the blood flow was 2.6 times lower than the values found in the normal individuals. The reduced nutritive blood flow to the hair follicles might be a significant event in the pathogenesis of early male pattern baldness. PEP-GF 9/4 therapy is known for improving blood circulation & decreasing blood constriction and promoting increasing nutrients in blood flow. PEP-GF 9/4 therapy has had zero side effects till now.

Does PEP-GF 9/4 hair loss therapy offer long-lasting, effective results?

Has anyone ever heard about male-pattern baldness? As the name suggests, this kind of baldness is more common in males, but it’s also found in women. Any adult experiencing hair loss is the ideal candidate for the process.  The efficacy of PEP-GF 9/4 is significantly greater when the treatment is opted for in the initial stage of hair loss. Like any other medical condition, the necessary treatment improves the effectiveness of the procedure. While this therapy may be a little expensive, its effectiveness is in comparison to much higher. If anyone wants long-lasting results, then this is the effective therapy every man and woman must opt for.  However, both treatment conditions are highly safe and effective and are known as among the best non-surgical ways of hair restoration.
