Although, the majority of ulcers\u0000can be healed by simple compression. Some chronic ulcers with\u0000venous competencies require correction surgeries. We in the\u0000current study tried to study the role of Cockett and Dodd's\u0000operation of subfascial ligation of below-knee perforator veins\u0000in the treatment of varicose veins of the lower limbs.\u0000Methods: This cross-sectional study was done in the\u0000Department of General Surgery, Prathima Institute of Medical\u0000Sciences, Naganoor, Karimnagar.

This study aims to analyze epidemiological aspect,\u0000clinical profile, and outcome of acute poisoning in a tertiary\u0000care hospital.\u0000Material and Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted\u0000at Government Medical College Hospital, Kota, Rajasthan. 102\u0000admitted patients were taken for study from January 2020 to\u0000August 2020. Epidemiological variables age, sex, type of poison,\u0000mode of exposure, clinical presentation and outcome were\u0000studied.\u0000Results: The median age was 30.23 years with a male\u0000predominance (54.9%).

Commonest nutritional deficiency\u0000affecting more than 1.2 billion individuals worldwide 1. Iron\u0000deficiency anaemia is associated with a reduction in physical\u0000well being and decreased exercise capacity. The prevalence of\u0000anaemia is 30% in stable heart failure and 50% in hospitalized\u0000heart failure patients, compared with less than 10% in the\u0000general population 2.In iron deficiency anaemia, to maintain\u0000adequate oxygen delivery, cardiac output can increase by the\u0000compensatory increase in blood volume, preload, heart rate,\u0000and stroke volume, and decrease in afterload.If severe iron\u0000deficiency anaemia left untreated, it could cause secondary\u0000organ damage. Chronic severe iron deficiency anaemia causes\u0000cardiac remodelling, cardiomegaly, arrhythmia, left ventricular\u0000hypertrophy, and heart failure.\u0000Aim: To study the left ventricular dysfunction in patients with\u0000severe iron deficiency admitted in a tertiary care hospital.\u0000Materials and Methods: A Hospital-based Prospective study\u0000was conducted in the Department of Medicine, Santhiram\u0000medical college & general hospital for a 2 year period. Universal\u0000Sampling Technique was used for the selection of study\u0000subjects. All the patients coming to the medicine department\u0000during the study period with age > 18years with informed\u0000written consent taken from the patient,Hemoglobin< 6gm/dl\u0000(according to WHO criteria) and Red cell indices suggestive of\u0000iron deficiency anaemia The final sample size was 100 subjects.\u0000Results: Out of 100 patients, 62% were females, and 38% were\u0000males in the study group. The mean age in the study population\u0000was 40.68±12.5 years, with the minimum age being 18 years\u0000and maximum age is 70 years. The prevalence of LV dysfunction\u0000in the study group was 61%.51% of the total population had\u0000systolic dysfunction and 10% had diastolic dysfunction.39% of\u0000the total population had normal LV function.

In diastolic dysfunction, 50% were males, and 50% were\u0000females.\u0000Conclusion: As iron deficiency anaemia is more prevalent\u0000globally, its consequences on the cardiovascular system were\u0000studied. Iron deficiency anaemia is a major public health\u0000problem in developing countries, and it causes major\u0000cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.

If it is prolonged and tedious it may produce a\u0000picture of mental anguish and physical morbidity. For the newborn child, prolonged labor will pose danger to its survival and\u0000subsequent neurological development. We in the current study\u0000tried to evaluate the use of partograms for spontaneous and\u0000induced labor in primi and multis para women.\u0000Methods: A total of n=150 cases were studied, and this includes\u0000both primis and multigravidae attending Prathima Hospital.\u0000They were divided into 3 groups (groups A, B & C) patients in\u0000normal true labor and those in whom induction was used. The\u0000induced group was again divided into those induced with PGE2\u0000gel or oxytocin. The modified WHO partogram starts with 4cms\u0000cervical dilatation. partograms were plotted to assess the\u0000progress of labor in each group and analyzed.\u0000Results: Group A for 52% primis and 64% multis the partogram\u0000fell before the alert line i.e. thedelivered before reaching the\u0000alert line, Group – B 56% primis and 48% multis in the\u0000partogrammoved between the alert and action lines. In GroupA 8% primis and 1% multis have reached orcrossed the action\u0000line. 12% primis and 1% multis in group-B have reached or\u0000crossed the actionline. 28% primis and 16% multis in group-C\u0000have reached or crossed the action line,Interventions like\u0000forceps delivery or cesarean section was done for those who\u0000have reached orcrossed the action line\u0000Conclusion: Partogram is a useful Non-invasive tool for\u0000monitoring the progress of labor in both spontaneous and\u0000induced labor for primis and multis. The Maternal and Fetal\u0000outcome is extremely favorable when partographic monitoring\u0000is done in parturients. The partogram helps us to take up\u0000decisive interventions in the form of accelerating labor,\u0000instrumental vaginal delivery (outlet Forceps/ventouse), and\u0000cesarean section","PeriodicalId":30624,"journal":{"name":"Perspectives In Medical Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42520497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
