Osteoid osteoma is a benign bone tumour that usually develops in the long bones of the body such as femur & tibia. It causes continuous, deep and severe pain at night, Swelling, joint stiffness. Modalities of management in modern medicine are limited and many patients suffer from post RFA complication like pain, general debility, gait disorder etc. Hence, there is a need of more efficient methods to treat this. Our present study comprises of one such way of dealing post radiofrequency management of Osteoid Osteoma through Ayurveda. A single case study of 18 year old male patient, diagnosed with Osteoid Osteoma of right hip joint who underwent RFA for same but did not get relief. Patient came to us with the complaint of severe pain in right hip joint with muscle lag associated with difficulty in doing daily activities such as walking, cross leg sitting, squatting & Gait disorder from last two years.

Purpose: This study set to investigate the relationship between corruption and health service delivery in the Lira district. Four objectives were targeted: determining the effect of corruption on health service delivery, examining corrupt actions, mechanisms of fighting corruption and challenges faced by the public in fighting corruption in Lira district. Methodology: The study adopted a cross-sectional study design that employed a mixed-methods approach of both quantitative and qualitative methods. The study population consisted of 120 people, which comprised patients, in-charges of Ogur and Amach Health Center IV, village health teams, and some community leaders. The researcher used self-administered questionnaires to collect data, an interview guide, and a focus group discussion checklist for qualitative. The descriptive statistics (mean, frequency, and standard deviation) and the regression statistics were used to determine the effect of corruption on health service delivery. Findings: The study found that corruption is associated with poor health service delivery in government health facilities. The regression coefficient of 0.97 and R-square of 0.97 reveal a strong correlation, which affects health service delivery by 38.2 percentage points. There are numerous corruption actions in health facilities, such as the selling of government drugs to patients; bribery, especially in the outpatient department; theft of health commodities; nepotism; favoritism; segregation at all service points in health facilities; and poor accountability. The mechanisms of fighting corruption in the health sector were community empowerment, community campaigns against corruption, reporting of suspected cases of corruption, tight supervision of government employees, and others. The challenges faced by the public in fighting against corruption were lack of community empowerment, a lack of information, unclear reporting channels for corrupt perpetrators, community ignorance, and fears of being mistreated by health workers, a weak political system, and bribery. Unique contribution to theory, policy and practice: It was recommended that the government of Uganda should increase health worker salaries; tighten supervision of health workers at least weekly for effective monitoring; and a contract for fighting corruption be awarded to a private company because it worked well with the Apac anti-corruption coalition (TACC). This study contributes to the re-awakening of stakeholders on the depth of corruption in basic service delivery in Uganda.

Systematic nursing services need to focus on identifying and solving problems, and it is hoped that nurses play a role in helping families in providing care at home through the necessary health education for clients. This activity will run more effectively with early planning and health education, with the hope that client care can continue. So discharge planning is very necessary. This study aims to determine the effect of discharge planning on parents' ability to care for children after diarrhea at RSUD Labuang Baji Makassar. This research is a quantitative research with a Quasi Experimental design. The population studied were parents with children suffering from diarrhea who were treated at Labuang Baji Hospital, Makassar. With a sample size of 60 respondents. The sampling technique is purposive sampling. The sample was divided into two groups, namely the control group and the treatment group. After both groups were observed regarding knowledge, attitudes and skills. The treatment group was given the dischaege planning intervention, while the control group was not given the intervention. Data were collected using observation sheets and questionnaires with assessments according to the Gutman and Likert scales. Data analysis used t-test, Chi-Square, and Odds Ratio, with a significance level of α = 5% (0.05). Analysis of results in the treatment group using t-test. It was found that there was a significant influence between discharge planning on parents' ability to care for their children after diarrhea. with the expected value (p = 0.00) smaller than the value (0.005). and in the Chi-Square (Fisher's Exact Test) the value P = 0.00 < 0.05 is obtained which can be concluded that there is a relationship between discharge planning and the ability of parents to care for children after diarrhea, whereas in the analysis using the Odds Ratio of the value is 7.5, meaning . Parents who were given discharge planning intervention were 7 times more likely to have greater knowledge, skills and attitudes compared to parents who were not given discharge planning intervention. Meanwhile, in the control group, no influence or relationship was found with the expected t-test value p=0.32 > 0.05 and Chi-Square p=1,000 > 0.05. The conclusion is that there is an influence of discharge planning on parents' ability to care for children after diarrhea.

Childbirth anxiety causes changes in a woman's mind during the third trimester. Prolonged worry can make it difficult for pregnant women to focus and cause them to lose confidence. Purpose: This study determines the relationship between self-efficacy and anxiety levels of third-trimester primigravida pregnant women. Methods: This study used cross-sectional data and correlation analysis. The purposive sampling method selected 82 third-trimester pregnant women as the study population. The study sample included 57 third-trimester pregnant women per the inclusion criteria. This study used two questionnaires: the self-confidence scale and the Revised Pregnancy-Related Anxiety Questionnaire (PRAQ-R2). The research results on self-efficacy obtained 63.2% with moderate self-efficacy, while anxiety levels obtained the majority with moderate anxiety at 49.1%. Data analysis using the Spearman Rank correlation test formula obtained a correlation coefficient of 0.645 with a significance of 0.000 (p <0, 05). Conclusion: There is a significant relationship in the self-efficacy of third-trimester primigravida pregnant women with anxiety levels with a strong correlation coefficient.

Post-COVID syndrome was described in the context of a survey of prolonged COVID-19 symptoms for the first time in 2020, run by the Patient-Led Research Collaborative, citizen’s scientist group. Symptoms persisting for more than three weeks after the diagnosis of COVID-19 fall into the category of post-COVID syndrome. The most common post-COVID symptoms include fatigue, dyspnea, olfactory and gustatory dysfunction, chest pain, myalgia, and sleep and mental disorders. The pathogenesis of post-COVID syndrome is multi-factorial. Underlying chronic, low grade inflammation has been theorized for pathogenesis. Available data shows conflicting results regarding the implication of inflammatory markers in full clinical spectrum and its long-term outcome.

The importance of bacterial cultures in autopsy has been controversial since Filippo Pacini and Robert Koch's early investigation into the etiology of cholera. Death-war and / or post-mortem invasion by the patient's native flora poses a problem with respect to post-mortem intervals, selection of anatomical location of cultures containing blood, CSF, and number of specimens required to be bought and collected in Microbial Laboratory for processing. Additionally, importance of postmortem virus research is significant. An increasingly important aspect of occupational safety is involved in handling of patient samples by laboratory staff. During the AIDS epidemic, regulatory bodies were urged to reconsider the importance of postmortem microbiological tests. This editorial is used to determine the exact cause of death without sacrificing the logistical and human resources of the Institute of Microbiology Practical sampling guidelines. The American University of Pathologists (CAP) are known to have developed a general checklist item for performing autopsy, but there are no specific guidelines, recommendations, or checklist items to address performance criteria for postmortem microbial culture studies. This review provides a brief historical perspective on autopsy microbiology, including a discussion of concerns about the postmortem spread of microorganisms, followed by a description of how to sample.

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever cases in Indonesia reported from 2000 to 2004 fluctuated, in 2000 there were 45,710 cases with a total of 472 deaths, in 2001 it increased to 46,790 cases with a total of 493 deaths, in 2002 there were 40,377 cases, and in 2003 the number of dengue cases there were 50,131 cases, the number of deaths was 289 cases, most recently in March 2004 the number of dengue fever cases was 26,015 cases with the number of deaths being 389 cases. The aim of the research is to analyze factors related to the endemicity of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever in two sub-districts of Baranti District. This research method is Observational research with a Cross Sectional Study design looking at the relationship between endemic and non-endemic factors causing the incidence of Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever in two sub-districts of Baranti District. The population and sample in this study are houses and heads of families who are located or domiciled in endemic and non-endemic sub-district areas. Data collection was carried out by interviewing residents' activities using questionnaires. Observations were carried out to obtain data on larval density, number of containers, waste management using observation sheets. How to check for larvae in water. The container was shaken after a few minutes. The presence of larvae was checked using a flashlight and Calculation of larval density for House index, Container Index and Breteau index. The results of the research showed that in endemic areas the percentage of larvae found in containers in houses was 42 houses (68.9%), and no larvae were found in 205 houses (46.9%), in non-endemic areas the number of larvae found in containers in houses was 19 houses (31, 1 %) and containers were not found in 232 houses (53.1 %). Probability (p) < 0.05 indicates a relationship between containers in the house and larval density in dengue endemic and non-endemic areas.

Probability (p) < 0.05 indicates a relationship between containers in the house and larval density in dengue endemic and non-endemic areas.","PeriodicalId":47093,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Health Sciences-IJHS","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134973054","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}
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a seldom-seen event, occurring in around 10% of cases within the cerebellum. These incidents are more common among older adults and are frequently linked to hypertension. However, instances have also been documented in younger individuals, particularly those with arteriovenous malformations and angiomas. The occurrence of spontaneous cerebellar hemorrhages, unrelated to trauma or known risk factors, is exceptionally rare and has a mortality rate ranging from 25% to 57%.
This case involved a 29-year-old male who experienced a spontaneous cerebellar hemorrhage. Despite being a healthy young adult without common risk factors for cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs), even not smoking.
