Change control plays a role in cGMP, just as all aspects of quality management should continually strive for enhancement. It works with a prior mechanism that empowers designated personnel across fields to assess, as well as having permission to authorize proposing or doing modifications that would impact the status that was prevalidated for the process system, including facilities, systems, and equipment. Change management involves overseeing changes in staff, protocols, operations, and product standards. These changes can occur in areas such as manufacturing, quality control, quality assurance, engineering, research and development (R&D), and marketing. Depending on their significance, changes may be categorized as critical, major, or minor; they may also be classified as emergency, planned, or unplanned based on their nature. Effective change management encompasses the coordination of personnel resources along with protocols to ensure consistency in operations and product excellence. It is a component of GMP compliance, as regulatory bodies mandate companies to demonstrate proficiency in managing changes. The process entails initiating a change request, followed by evaluating its impact on the product before devising an action plan for implementation, ultimately culminating with the Change Control Board (CCB) making decisions regarding the proposed changes.

An ideal material used for restoration should be adhesive, tooth coloured, resistant to wear, nontoxic and biocompatible with the tissue. Various direct filling materials are available in dentistry such as amalgam, glass ionomer cement (GIC) and esthetic composite material, each of them having its advantages and disadvantages hence proper selection of restorative materials will help for its clinical success. Cention-N is a new alkasite, bulk filling, basic tooth-coloured, radiopaque material introduced by Ivoclar Vivadent in 2016. It is a self-curing filling material with optimum light curing. It consists of an isofiller which reduces the polymerization shrinkage and utilizes an alkaline filler which is capable of releasing acid-neutralizing ions. It presents with good mechanical properties and long-term stability due to the cross-linking of methacrylates in the final restoration hence it can be used in load-bearing areas. Cention-N can be efficiently used in pediatric patients as it is moisture resistant and releases fluoride which helps in remineralizing teeth thus preventing secondary caries. The use of caution is restricted in the anterior tooth as it is available only in one shade.

This systematic review comprehensively analyzes the literature on hypotensive anesthesia in Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgeries (FESS), crucial for treating sinonasal disorders. The anesthesia technique choice significantly influences FESS outcomes. Hypotensive anesthesia, involving controlled blood pressure reduction during surgery, garners attention for potential benefits. A database search identified relevant studies examining its efficacy, safety, and impact on intraoperative visibility, surgical time, blood loss, and postoperative outcomes. Various drugs, including inhalational agents, hypocapnia, hypercapnia, local adrenaline, fentanyl, remifentanil, esmolol, dexmedetomidine, and nitroglycerine, have been employed to minimize bleeding and enhance operative conditions. Sevoflurane is a common inhalation agent. Dexmedetomidine, with lower bolus doses, proves advantageous for visibility and achieving a MAP of 60 mm Hg swiftly. Opioids have a lower hypotensive potential, nitroglycerine lacks analgesic effects, and beta-blockers provide favorable conditions. Dexmedetomidine's prolonged analgesia correlates with improved postoperative outcomes. Limited studies explore combined drugs' efficacy or side effects. Cognitive dysfunction is a concern, with hypotension approved up to a MAP of 60 mm Hg. The technique's application extends to children, but careful patient selection is crucial, considering contraindications and comorbidities.
这篇系统性综述全面分析了功能性内窥镜鼻窦手术（FESS）中的低血压麻醉文献，FESS 是治疗鼻窦疾病的关键。麻醉技术的选择在很大程度上影响着 FESS 的效果。低血压麻醉是指在手术过程中控制血压的降低，因其潜在的益处而备受关注。通过数据库搜索发现了相关研究，这些研究探讨了低血压麻醉的有效性、安全性以及对术中可见度、手术时间、失血量和术后效果的影响。各种药物，包括吸入剂、低碳酸血症、高碳酸血症、局部肾上腺素、芬太尼、瑞芬太尼、艾司洛尔、右美托咪定和硝酸甘油，都被用来减少出血和改善手术条件。七氟醚是一种常用的吸入剂。右美托咪定的栓剂剂量较低，在能见度和迅速达到 MAP 60 mm Hg 方面具有优势。阿片类药物的降压潜能较低，硝酸甘油缺乏镇痛作用，而β-受体阻滞剂则提供了有利条件。右美托咪定可延长镇痛时间，从而改善术后效果。有关联合用药的疗效或副作用的研究有限。认知功能障碍是一个令人担忧的问题，血压最高可达 60 mm Hg。该技术适用于儿童，但考虑到禁忌症和合并症，谨慎选择患者至关重要。

Our study focused on comparing the efficacy of Rubber Band Ligation (banding), a day-care and cost-effective procedure, with conventional haemorrhoidectomy in the treatment of haemorrhoids. The study included 120 patients diagnosed through proctoscopic examination, with 60 assigned to each group. Patients were randomly selected through simple alternation for banding or haemorrhoidectomy after receiving procedural explanations and providing consent. Banding, utilizing Barron's band applicator and Hemoband suction device under local anaesthesia, demonstrated notable advantages. Comparison parameters included bleeding, pain, prolapse, and overall relief during follow-ups. Banding showed significantly lower bleeding persistence at 4 weeks compared to haemorrhoidectomy (p < 0.001). Prolapse rates were comparable between the two groups (10%). Complete relief was observed in 1.66% of patients in both groups at the first follow-up (p = 0.929). Banding resulted in moderate pain levels compared to haemorrhoidectomy. Hospital stay duration favoured banding, with 71.66% discharged in 1-3 days, while haemorrhoidectomy had longer stays (3-6 days: 26.66%, >6 days: 1.66%). In conclusion, Rubber Band Ligation emerged as a more effective and preferable method for second-degree haemorrhoids, providing better outcomes, reduced bleeding, and shorter hospital stays compared to conventional haemorrhoidectomy.

This prospective observational study, conducted at the Department of General Surgery, SRM Medical College and Hospital, aimed to assess the effectiveness of tissue culture and sensitivity compared to swab culture and sensitivity in the healing of diabetic foot ulcers through antibiotic sensitivity of microorganisms. Between May 2016 and August 2017, 160 subjects with diabetic foot ulcers were randomly assigned treatment based on either swab or tissue culture findings. Patients were followed at 15-day intervals for up to 60 days. Results showed positive swab cultures in 76.88% and positive tissue cultures in 92.50% of the study population. The most prevalent organism in swab cultures was Proteus (14.38%), while Pseudomonas (16.88%) dominated in tissue cultures. The cumulative proportion of subjects developing granulation tissue was faster in the tissue culture group, reaching 57.50% at 15 to 30 days and 99% at 31 to 45 days. The swab culture group exhibited proportions of 48.80%, 75%, and 93.80% at the same intervals. In conclusion, diabetic foot ulcer treatment based on tissue culture showed slightly faster healing rates compared to swab culture. However, both groups achieved good ulcer healing within the 60-day follow-up period. These findings emphasize the importance of choosing an appropriate culture method for effective management of diabetic foot ulcers.

Our study focused on comparing the efficacy of Rubber Band Ligation (banding), a day-care and cost-effective procedure, with conventional haemorrhoidectomy in the treatment of haemorrhoids. The study included 120 patients diagnosed through proctoscopic examination, with 60 assigned to each group. Patients were randomly selected through simple alternation for banding or haemorrhoidectomy after receiving procedural explanations and providing consent. Banding, utilizing Barron's band applicator and Hemoband suction device under local anaesthesia, demonstrated notable advantages. Comparison parameters included bleeding, pain, prolapse, and overall relief during follow-ups. Banding showed significantly lower bleeding persistence at 4 weeks compared to haemorrhoidectomy (p < 0.001). Prolapse rates were comparable between the two groups (10%). Complete relief was observed in 1.66% of patients in both groups at the first follow-up (p = 0.929). Banding resulted in moderate pain levels compared to haemorrhoidectomy. Hospital stay duration favoured banding, with 71.66% discharged in 1-3 days, while haemorrhoidectomy had longer stays (3-6 days: 26.66%, >6 days: 1.66%). In conclusion, Rubber Band Ligation emerged as a more effective and preferable method for second-degree haemorrhoids, providing better outcomes, reduced bleeding, and shorter hospital stays compared to conventional haemorrhoidectomy.
