This document provides guidance on the appropriate places to seek medical care depending on the severity of the issue. It recommends seeing your primary care physician for minor illnesses like sore throats, earaches, or colds. It suggests going to an urgent care center if your primary care doctor is unavailable and for issues like minor injuries that still require attention. The emergency room is recommended for serious or life-threatening medical emergencies only, like severe injuries, chest pains, or difficulty breathing.

A respiratory therapy professional diagnoses and treats those suffering from chronic and other
respiratory problems. Some of their patients with respiratory problems would be:
Premature infants
Asthma patients
Patients with lung infections
Heart patients
A respiratory therapist (RT) has a variety of job responsibilities. These include talking to
patients, gathering information regarding their medical condition, diagnosing breathing
conditions and associated treatments, informing the family about the respiratory therapy
treatments, etc. Respiratory therapist must update their professional respiratory knowledge
periodically and need to be well versed with the latest available techniques, treatments and
diseases in respiratory therapy.
Care
Respiratory therapists often work in medical facilities such as hospitals and nursing homes. They
administer oxygen, perform CPR, use ventilators, and give medicines as needed. The ability to
provide this care and build relationships with patients is an advantage for people who want to
work in the medical field without becoming a medical doctor. Therapists who work in extended
care facilities like nursing homes have an even longer time to develop relationships with their
patients.
Misconception among nurses about a respiration therapist:
STRESS:
Nurses do think that, being a respiration therapist could be strenuous and stressful, as they spend
the majority of the day on their feet.
The care that respiratory therapists provide deals with one of the most basic and important life
activities -- breathing. Helping people through breathing struggles is stressful under normal
conditions. For those therapists who work in hospitals, the stress is more constant. Administering
CPR and assisting with treatment in emergency rooms is high pressure.
Another factor that can add to the stress is working with children who have breathing issues, or
who have been in a drowning accident or other type of accident that has compromised their
respiration.
WORK CONDITION and ENVIRONMENT:
Nurses do believe that, RTs may have to work on weekends, holidays, and various shifts and
may also have to work extended hours in case of emergency. A career in respiratory therapy also
means being exposed to infections and micro-organisms.
Another misconception is that, as being a registered nurse, they do have more opportunities of
different places to work like hospitals, clinics, doctor\'s offices, jail\'s, factories, home health, and
of course as a school nurse. whereas, as RTs, well not so many as they could work on just
hospitals and home health.
These are the major misconceptions among nurses about a respiratory therapist.

PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF FIRST AID.pptx
PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICE OF FIRST AID.pptxMesioValentine
油
First Aid is defined as the skilled assistance given to a suddenly ill or injured person before professional help is accessed.
more recently, first aid is defined as helping behaviors and initial care provided for an acute illness or injury.
it is concerned not only with physical injury or illness but also with other initial care, including psychosocial support for people suffering emotional distress from experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. IFRC 2016 resuscitation guidelines.
Experts have identified the following four (4) aims for First Aid practice and they are usually referred to as the 4 ps of First Aid :
To Preserve Or Save Life
To Prevent Worsening of the Condition
To Provide Psychosocial
To Promote Recovery Support/Alleviate Suffering
A First Aid Provider is defined as someone trained in first aid who should recognize, assess and prioritize the need for first aid.
The first aid provider offers care using appropriate competencies, recognizes limitations and seeks additional care when needed.
IFRC international First Aid, resuscitation, and education guidelines 2020.
On a general note, some workplace may seem very safe and healthy. this is not true because many workplaces are very hazardous and expose employees to things that can injure them or make them suddenly ill. according to the international labor organization (ILO), some 2.3 million women and men around the world succumb to work-related accidents or diseases every year; this corresponds to over 6000 deaths every single day. worldwide, there are around 340 million occupational accidents and 160 million victims of work-related illnesses annually.
Many life threatening medical emergencies can degenerate very quickly. Instant First Aid reduces recovery time. For example, if bleeding is not swiftly stopped, it can degenerate into the casualty experiencing shock as a result of excessive loss of blood. this is why having a trained first aid provider on ground at work and elsewhere is very important.
When you give First Aid, it is important to protect yourself (and the casualty) from infection as well as injury.
Take steps to avoid cross-contaminationtransmitting germs or infection to a casualty or contracting infection from a casualty. remember, infection is a risk even with relatively minor injuries.
it is a particular concern if you are treating a wound, because blood-borne viruses, such as hepatitis b or c and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), may be transmitted by contact with blood. In practice, the risk is low and should not deter you from carrying out first aid.
The risk increases if an infected persons blood makes contact with yours through a cut or scrape.
usually, taking measures such as washing your hands and wearing disposable gloves will provide sufficient protection for you and the casualty.
There is no known evidence of these blood-borne viruses being transmitted during resuscitation.

Subphylum : Apicomplexa (Sporozoa)
Class : Telosporea
Genus : Plasmodium
Species : vivax
Plasmodium is one of the most harmful parasites of man.
It is a digenetic, intracellular parasite that lives in the liver cells and RBC of man. (It is extracellular in mosquito).
Its primary host is the female Anopheles mosquito and the secondary host is man. Reservoir host is monkey.
The infective stage is sickle shaped sporozoite and the mode of infection is inoculation.
Four species of Plasmodium cause four types of malaria in man.
They are
i) Plasmodium vivax benign tertian malaria
ii) Plasmodium falciparum malignant tertian malaria
iii) Plasmodium ovale mild tertian malaria
iv) Plasmodium malariae quartan malaria
Of all these four species, Plasmodium vivax is the most common and most widely distributed malaria parasite.
OBJECTIVES AND USE OF ANTIMALARIAL DRUGS
The aims of using drugs in relation to malarial infection are:
(i) To prevent clinical attack of malaria (prophylactic).
(ii) To treat clinical attack of malaria (clinical curative).
(iii) To completely eradicate the parasite from the patients body (radical curative).
(iv) To cutdown human-to-mosquito transmission (gametocidal).
These are achieved by attacking the parasite at its various stages of life cycle in the human host .
Antimalarials that act on erythrocytic schizogony are called erythrocytic schizontocides
Antimalarials that act on pre erythrocytic as well as exoerythrocytic (P. vivax) stages in liver are called tissue schizontocides,
Antimalarials which kill gametocytes in blood are called gametocides.

Caffeine, a widely consumed stimulant found in coffee, tea, and energy drinks, has significant effects on the body, particularly on blood sugar regulation. Understanding how caffeine interacts with glucose metabolism is essential, especially for individuals managing diabetes. Caffeine can impact blood sugar levels by reducing insulin sensitivity, making it harder for cells to absorb glucose efficiently. It also triggers stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, which can lead to temporary spikes in blood sugar. Additionally, caffeine affects sleep quality, and poor sleep is linked to impaired blood sugar control. It can also influence appetite, sometimes reducing hunger or triggering cravings for high-carb foods. However, caffeine has potential benefits, including antioxidants and metabolism-boosting properties, which may help in diabetes management when consumed in moderation. Striking a balance is keywhile caffeine can have both positive and negative effects on blood sugar, monitoring intake and consulting a diabetologist, such as Dr. Mayank Somani, can help individuals make informed decisions about their caffeine consumption.Lukenote Practice: Free yourself.
