The major complication of any form of spinal surgery is neurological insult which can result in serious post-operative sensory or motor deficit. Intraoperative neuromonitoring has evolved to identify and help to avert these insults through real time assessment of the spinal cord function. This paper is to provide an outline of the major modalities utilised in Intraoperative neuromonitoring during spine surgery, how they help in identifying neurological insults and aid in reducing post operative deficits, all explained through a case report. Keywords : Neuromonitoring, Spine Surgery

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, lockdown across the globe has resulted in a major depression among the people making children and adolescents the most vulnerable group. E-Learning has also put pressure on them not only physically but also psychologically. The over usage of electronic gadgets will lead to disturbing and alarming side effects in the long run. Stress and increased usage of modern gadgets due to the pandemic times can lead to sleep deprivation ruining a healthy living. In this article, we put forward the ways in which lifestyle has become deteriorated during this pandemic and what we can do about it to overcome the hardships so that we can build a healthier lifestyle without becoming the victims of psychiatric and psychological disorders.

A child’s attainment of milestones at right age is of utmost concerning thing to the parents. It is their duty to closely look after the child and have a note on their day to day activities as they grow. Several reversible defects with regards to the milestones can be corrected if found earlier and treated by the respective professionals. In this article, we brief parental concerns regarding the milestone development in the child and the methodologies that will help them attain a healthy lifestyle and for a better learning experience with sharper brain.

Preeclampsia is emerging as a serious, threatening problem during pregnancy and puerperium. Stroke which is a neurological emergency is becoming a distressing debilitating reason for the disability and morbidity among reproductive age group women.Across the globe, studies have delineated the fact that women are at a higher risk for developing stroke in comparison with men as well as higher mortality rates. Most strokes occurring in relation to pregnancy, either manifest during labor and delivery or in the puerperium phase. In this article we outline the importance in understanding the correlation between preeclampsia and stroke, the inter relational factors favoring its development and the positive effects of diagnosing the etiological factor at an earlier stage with good diagnostic modalities and treating accordingly in a timely manner with an individualized approach, taking into consideration the possible side effects without compromising the maternal and fetal health which is of prime importance.

Spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma (SSEH) is an entity of rarity. It usually has an acute onset presenting to the emergency department with profound neurological deficits.From the term we infer that the blood accumulating in the spinal column is not due to any traumatic cause.During the episode of spontaneous bleeding, there is a positive correlation with increase in the pressures of the epidural space. Replacing myelography and CT scan, MRI has earned the name for being the gold standard for the diagnosis of SSEH. In case of an individual without any classical explanation for developing sudden neurological deficits with excruciating painful symptoms, SSEH should be kept in mind as a potential differential diagnosis. If SSEH is suspected, MRI should be done which is the diagnostic modality of choice.Surgical evacuation of the hematoma and decompression with laminectomy are considered to be the ideal procedures to be performed following the diagnosis.Since SSEH is a dreaded problem causing rapid deterioration it is highly advised to take up the patient for a detailed diagnosis and timely interventional procedures even though the clinical symptomatology remains to be highly unique in different individuals. In this article, we discuss from the literature, the etiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, treatment protocols and prognostic factors regarding SSEH, a disease of low incidence yet a high mortality, demanding a detailed discussion and awareness among the medical professionals.

The brain does not work in a fixed state and it has no fixed memory or intelligence that is present from birth. It is in a constant state of fluctuation.The positives and negatives can be clearly determined regarding a situation with increased insight when our mind is at peace. One of the probable reasons for the increase in cognitive disorders is extreme pressure, stress or shock.In this article, we bring about the effective and scientifically proven methodologies with which the physical and psychological well-being can be improved. This not only brings about betterment within ourselves but also directs our personal and professional life towards achieving the goals as per our wishes.
