Life on this earth has become a trial and so it is to be able to live healthy. Medical science has improved to a great deal but we have to compare our modern day doctors with the quality of mind that Indian doctors or (Vaidy ) strove to cultivate in the days gone by and rue the difference. It seems the Medical oath which doctors have to take at the time of graduating out which is popularly known as Hippocratic oath (taken to promise oneself to render selfless service) has become shortened and is likely to get further shortened now, to merit itself the new name that I would give it-hypocritical oath.

Some two years ago, my mom’s problem due to osteoporosis got so intense that she had to be x-rayed and checked up. The doctor made a few queries and found out that she was the wife of a retired central Government employee with medical reimbursement for operations. I suspect that was the reason why he suggested that she be admitted as an in-patient. As a dutiful daughter, I took two weeks leave to attend to her (and at that time I was working in a hamlet two hundred kilometers away from my place in Chennai).

She only had a pain at the neck, and for that they took blood test, urine test, CT scan, ultrasound scan(The one they do to check the baby in the tummy). Poor mom, doesn’t even possess a uterus which was removed two years prior to that. And there was mummy gloriously taking thaaat!

Everything , of course was normal, normal, normal and I was beginning to get really vexed because two days had passed and we weren’t getting any near solution. After the x-ray came a duty doctor went through it and said she needed an operation which had 25 percent chances of success. And if it was a failure, she would of course not lose her life but might be rendered invalidated. Since I was already annoyed with the way they were conducting themselves I decided to pack the bags and leave the hospital. My mother was in two minds regarding that matter. What, if the doctor is right. I think we rather follow the doctor’s advice!-she appealed to me, being a woman of the great old good days where people thought doctors were Gods. No, I said. Look at the way the doctors talk!

You know,when I enquired why they had to take ultrasound scan for a lady who had no problem there, the answer was this- Why are you so panicky, are you paying from your pocket? No, after all it is Government that pays!Just relax and tell me if you have any discomfort here. I decided they had no right to make business out of my poor mom’s ailing body and literally dragged her out of the murky hospital. The doctor’s kept protesting that when she had no problem with the comforts of the hospital, why did she needed to vacate so early. I said, well doctor, I have an urgent call at my place of work and needed to go. So there is nobody else to tend to her and of course we would be back shortly to enjoy all that hospitality!!!!

And come out we did and immediately took second opinion with certain other doctors known for neutral judgement and you will not believe it when I say that they simply ruled out an operation! They said it was wisdom to avoid an operation which any way had only 25% chances of a success and god would most probably be more generous if we left it to him. Two years have passed and my mother is still an active woman except for occasional neck aches.

So those who rush to hospitals for everything please bear in mind that you might better take a second counsel before wholly depending on certified doctors who are out to get you. Better still appeal to God’s generosity!!

Basics of Malaria

Background: Malaria is a very old disease in the world. Charaka, Susrata, Hipocratas, everybody has written about it. In some places it is known as Pali Jara. The word malaria has been derived from the Italian word ‘Mal’ which means Bad and “Aria” which means Air. So it was presumed that malaria occurs due to bad air. Similarly most of the people have wrong conception that due waste water, due to bath in waste/bad water, due to drink unclean/unsafe water it happens.

In 1600 some Missionaries from Spain visited Peru, there they found some people are using bark of a tree to get cure from the fever and this is the first known treatment of malaria. This tree is the CINCHONA. We are preparing Quinine (injection) from it. So the tribals of Peru are the first medicine men for malaria. This plant was planted in India in Nilagiri Hills in the year 1872. In the year 1880 one French Scientist discovered the malaria parasite. But all were not sure from which source this parasite is affecting. One UK scientist Patrick Manson told that it is probably from mosquito the men are getting. All over the world there was researches to know the where about of the parasite. But the credit went to India, where the British Military doctor Ronald Ross, placed at Secunderabad discovered the parasite in the mosquito’s stomach. Since that day it became pretty clear that the mosquito spreads malaria. But his message did not reach the common people till now, as we can control malaria, if we can control mosquito. In 1934 the mostly used chloroquine tablet was invented. Similarly during 2nd World War one German Soldier started the use of DDT to get relief from mosquito. And this was treated as the first preventive method of controlling mosquito.

Malaria was a very big problem in India. After Independence different programs were launched to control as well as to eradicate malaria. These programs are, National Malaria Control Program (NMCP), National Malaria Eradication Program (NMEP), Enhanced Malaria Control Program (EMCP), National Anti Malaria Program (NAMP) and in 2003 National Vector Borne Diseases Control Program (NVBCP). In 1953 there was 750 lakh malaria affected people in India but due to the implementation of NMCP & NMEP it reduced to 50000 only and the govt. thought that it can eradicate malaria. But later on it is learnt that it is impossible to eradicate malaria as each year the numbers of affected people are varying and increasing considerably.

a) What is Malaria: Malaria is one type of fever among different types of fevers, which occurs due to the bite of female anopheles Mosquito. Malaria can be divided into two groups such as Simple and Severe malaria. The symptoms of malaria are;

Simple Malaria: Cold?Hot?Sweating?Break?Cold? Hot?SweatingSome get pain & vomitFeeling weak, Anemia,Enlargement of Spleen.

Severe malaria / complicated malaria: This leads to the following diseases:

Cerebral malaria
Acute Renal Failure
Jaundice
Vomiting and Diarrhea
Dehydration
Circulatory collapse
Severe anemia
Hemoglobinuria – Black water fever
Hypoglycemia
Plumonary Oedema
Hyperparasitaemia
Hyper pyrexia
Disseminated Intravascular coagulation
Associated Bacterial Infections – LRI, UTS

Malaria is a fever caused by a parasite. The parasite is known as plasmodium. There are four types of plasmodium, which can create fever in human being. They are as follows.

1. P.v– Plasmodium Vivax
2. P.f – Plasmodium Facliparum
3. P.m – Plasmodium malaria
4. P.o – Plasmodium Ovale

The first two types are mainly found in India while the P.o is not found in India. In Rayagada and Koraput districts of Orissa there is 96% & 98% P.f cases, respectively. The P.f type causes death while death cannot be caused in P.v cases. The P.v causes the simple malaria only while the P.f can cause both simple and complicated malaria.

What to do when there is Malaria: It is better to go for blood test for malaria cases, if there is facility for blood test. It is told that there is 4 line / level for medicines. But for the field level staff it is wiser to go up to 2nd level, as they do not have essential qualification to go for next levels. In first line it is always better to go for chlorquine tablets. There is risk in injection particularly for children. The first doze must be 4 tablets. WHO prescribes 4+4+2 chlorquine doze (250mg) is ideal for adults.

Chlorquine dosage according to Age/WeightEach tab contains CQ phosphate – 250mg that is equivalent to – 150mg base.

Age group in years Probable weight NO OF TABLETSDay –1 10mg base /kg Day –2 10 mg base / kg Day – 3 5mg base / kg0-1 6 kg ½ ¼ ¼1-4 15 kg 1 1 ½5-8 30 kg 2 2 19-14 45 kg 3 3 11/215 above 60 kg 4 4 2The tablets should be taken after food and a 3 days course is idle. If chloroquine does not work then pyralafin can be given, which is the 2nd line for medicine. It consists of solfa and pyramithimin. Its prescribed dosages are:

Weight Tablets20kg 1 tab40 kg 2 tabs60 kg 3 tabs
If chlorquine does not work within three days then one should go for 2nd line. If a patient does not recovers in 2nd line, its better to refer him/her to the nearest health centre, which is the third line of medicine in malaria program.

Vitamin D obtained from exposure to a healthy dose of sunshine may help people stay young and protect them against heart disease, a study by British scientists has found.

Researchers from King’s College London studied the telomeres of 2,160 women aged between 18 and 79. Telomeres are biological markers of ageing found in Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) that contains genetic information.

As people get older, their telomeres get shorter and they become more susceptible to certain illnesses.

The scientists found that women with high levels of vitamin D had comparatively longer telomeres – a sign of being biologically younger and healthier, reported the online edition of the Daily Mail.

About 90 percent of the body’s supply of vitamin D can be obtained from sunshine. However, a small amount of the vitamin can also be obtained through food such as fish, eggs and breakfast cereals.
