Medical Authorities in India

-
Where are v heading?
Where will this end one day?
Why so many Increasing conflicts n undesirable incidents?
Who is the main responsible?

Govt body giving authorities to start medical colleges every now and then without proper confirmation of services and education they can provide. Education standards in medical colleges in India is very poor. Govt n regulatory authorities n corruption at college levels specially self financial institutions, are main culprit bcz they want to settle following data on international levels, published on WHO n Indian medical journal websites last year.

"Only 106 415 doctors are employed by the government in India, of the 938 861 doctors registered to provide healthcare to a population over 120 crore (1.2 billion). Of these, only 27 355 are posted at primary health centres (PHCs), which serve the rural population. With poor infrastructure and no increase in the number of posts for government doctors over the past many decades, despite an increasing population, the public healthcare system is on the verge of collapse. Violence against the health service provider is only a symptom of this crippling underlying malady."

It is stated that 8 to 38% of medical personnel face physical violence & 52% of personnel face physical / verbal and different kinds of violence in their career once or more and only negligible % of culprit out of all these issues get punished.

May God Save this noble profession in India sooner as possible or else common public will suffer the most.

Being an ICU Doctor

-
A doctor must be psychologically fit for this job –able to make decisions under a terrifying amount of pressure, able to break bad news to anguished relatives, able to deal with death on a daily basis. They must have something that cannot be memorized and graded.  A great doctor must have a huge heart and a distended aorta through which pumps a vast lake of compassion and human kindness & medical colleges don't give a shit about all these in academic years. As you might imagine, learning every single aspect of the human body’s anatomy and physiology, plus each possible way it can malfunction & then find a solution for each malfunction/disease, is a fairly giant task in itself & then turning this theory into practice is a huge task ahead after education. During day time you may be able to do these over the years of learning & still accept the failures you come across during your practice.  Then comes one more turnover 'Nights'. You have to be more alert durin

Emergency Medical Services

Note: *This is absolutely different stuff than hospitals and critical care medicine* As per survey conducted by SEMI, Society of emergency medicine in India, in 2017, “With more than 100,000 road traffic related deaths, 98.5% ‘ambulance runs’ transporting dead bodies, 90% of ambulances without any equipment/oxygen, 95% of ambulances having untrained personnel, most ED doctors having no formal training in EMS, misuse of government ambulances and 30% mortality due to delay in emergency care, India portrays a mirror image of the U.S. of the 1960s.” The good news is that EMS has taken firm root in India but still we are far behind in this (best are, 911 in US, EMS in UK and so many others) in respect to quality n quantity of Services n service providers, Density of population being most common point of worry in any service management, here also its a big constraint. Good and Affordable, Air ambulance, Train Ambulance and other things are still far away from us in India. Government is offe

ORGAN DONATION

-
'THE SOLE PURPOSE OF THIS BLOG IS TO INCREASE AWARENESS ABOUT ORGAN DONATION' AS PER RECENT DATA / STATISTICS THAT WE CAN SEE ON FEW GOVT / NGO WEBSITES ABOUT ORGAN DONATION, INDIA IS WAY TOO BEHIND THEN MANY OTHER COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD, SPECIALLY IN RESPECT TO THE POPULATION WE HAVE & IN RESPECT TO NUMBER OF PATIENTS REQUIRING ORGAN DONATION & THE DEATHS OCCURRING PER YEAR DUE TO LACK OF AVAILABILITY OF ORGANS. AT LARGE TWO CAUSES ARE IDENTIFIED FOR THE SAME 1. LACK OF AWARENESS AND EDUCATION FOR THE SAME IN GENERAL POPULATION AS WELL AS MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS. 2. MISCONCEPTIONS AND FAMILY BELIEFS / MISBELIEFS IN OUR SOCIETY DUE TO ONE REASON OR OTHER FOR EXAMPLE ORTHODOX RELIGIOUS CONCEPTS. FEW DATA THAT I HAVE SEEN ON SUCH WEBSITES ARE AS BELOW. COUNTRIES LIKE SINGAPORE AND SPAIN ARE AT TOP (20 TO 30 PER MILLION OF POPULATION) IN ORGAN DONATION BECAUSE THEY HAVE DEVELOPED CONCEPT OF 'PRESUMED CONSENT' WHERE MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS TAKE DECISION ABOUT
