NATIONAL IMMUNIZATION PROGRAM


Terms To Remember

Natural Immunity: Immunity from disease can be provided by vaccination or by exposure to the disease. Some people believe that immunity is best gained by exposure to the actual disease, not by vaccination.
Shingles: A painful nerve inflammation occurring in people who have had chickenpox
National Immunization Project: An organization which can direct people to health clinics offering no- or low-cost vaccinations

What is Retinoblastoma?:-

“Retinoblastoma is a disease that causes the growth of malignant tumors in the retinal cell layer of the eye.” (3)
It is the most common eye tumor in children.

Dissociated deviation. A strabismus of cortical origin:-


What Causes Retinoblastoma?:-

Retinoblastoma is caused by a mutation on the 13th chromosome.
“Possibly environmental factors increase mutational events at the retinoblastoma gene locus.” (2)

Health Problems

Health Problems More Common Among Women Than Men- Examples:-

Autoimmune Diseases/Lupus
Immune system attacks healthy cells in the body; can effect the joints, skin, kidneys, brain, heart, lungs and blood
9 out of 10 people who have lupus are women
Lupus is 3 times more common in black women than in white women
Afflicts almost 2 million Americans; death rates are on the rise
Onset usually occurs between the ages of 15 and 40;  a leading cause of kidney disease, stroke and premature cardiovascular disease in women of childbearing age.

MANAGAMENT OF MIGRAINE:-

Migraine Facts:-

Migraine is one of the common causes of recurrent headaches
According to IHS, migraine constitutes 16% of primary headaches
Migraine afflicts 10-20% of the general population
More than 2/3 of migraine sufferers either have never consulted a doctor or have stopped doing so
Migraine is underdiagnosed and undertreated
Migraine greatly affects quality of life. The WHO ranks migraine among the world’s most disabling medical illnesses
Burden Of Migraine
World - 15-20% of women and 10-15% of men suffer from migraine
In India, 15-20% of people suffer from migraine

In childhood migraine, boys and girls are affected equally until puberty, when the predominance shifts to girls.

What causes osteoporosis:-

Scientist have not yet learned all the reasons this occurs. 
When you are young your body makes new bone faster than it breaks down old bones. 
As you get older, this process slows down and you start losing bone density.
The risk for osteoporosis depends on how much  bone mass you attained between ages 25 and 35 and how fast you lose it.

ACC Heart Failure Guidelines Slide Deck:-

Based on the ACC/AHA 2005 Guideline Update
for the Diagnosis and Management of
Chronic Heart Failure in the Adult

Heart Failure is Primarily a Condition of the Elderly:-

The incidence of HF approaches 10 per 1000 population after age 65
HF is the most common Medicare diagnosis-related group
More dollars are spent for the diagnosis and treatment of HF than any other diagnosis by Medicare

Guideline Scope:-

Document focuses on :
Prevention of HF
Diagnosis and management of chronic HF in the adult

Definition of Heart Failure:-

HF is a complex clinical syndrome that can
result from any structural or functional
cardiac disorder that impairs the ability of
the ventricle to fill with or eject blood.

Stages of Heart Failure:-

At Risk for Heart Failure:
STAGE A High risk for developing HF
STAGE B Asymptomatic LV dysfunction
Heart Failure:
STAGE C Past or current symptoms of HF
STAGE D End-stage HF

PowerPoint Slide Presentation on Allergy:-










Milk allergy:-

A milk allergy is different from lactose intolerance. It is an allergic reaction to the protein components, such as casein, in cow’s milk. Usually, people who have a milk allergy must avoid all milk products. People with lactose intolerance can eat dairy products in varying amounts.

About 30% to 40% of infants who are allergic to cow’s milk are also allergic to the protein in soy formulas.

It is also called formula protein allergy.
