Imparting knowledge is no more considered a paramount contribution.
I have been practising medicine in an under-served rural setting since 1976, and have published around 109 papers in PubMed-indexed journals - including The Lancet, BMJ, NEJM and several tropical medicine journals - on scorpion and snakebite cases causing acute life-threatening conditions. I have researched in detail, with restricted resources, the acute clinical effects of envenomation and management of scorpion and snakebite cases [1, 2]. In Mahad, the fatality rate due to refractory heart failure arising from autonomic storm evoked by scorpion venom was previously 30% [3]. Since the advent of prazosin and scorpion antivenom, it has dropped to less than 1% [4]. Similarly, fatalities due to snakebite poisoning have been reduced from 18% to 5.
期刊介绍：
The Indian Journal of Medical Ethics (formerly Issues in Medical Ethics) is a platform for discussion on health care ethics with special reference to the problems of developing countries like India. It hopes to involve all cadres of, and beneficiaries from, this system, and strengthen the hands of those with ethical values and concern for the under-privileged. The journal is owned and published by the Forum for Medical Ethics Society, a not-for-profit, voluntary organisation. The FMES was born out of an effort by a group of concerned doctors to focus attention on the need for ethical norms and practices in health care.
