After TB part 1 and part 2, we present to you a masterclass in TB treatment. Treating TB with jaundice, or DRTB, is a challenge. This session will focus on real-time TB regimens and treatment challenges. Let us learn from the top experts in the country: Prof. Dr. Salil Bendre in conversation with Dr. Vikas Oswal. This is going to be an incredibly interactive session, so please share your thoughts and ask questions in the comments section and join us live for this #BlockBuster live masterclass. 

Masterclass in TB Treatment 

The standardized regimens for anti-TB treatment recommended by WHO include five essential medicines designated as “first line”: isoniazid (H), rifampicin (R), pyrazinamide (Z), ethambutol (E) and streptomycin (S). Drug resistance is a formidable obstacle to TB care and prevention globally, making it harder and longer to treat, often resulting in poor treatment outcomes. Multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) is defined as TB bacteria that are resistant to two of the most important TB drugs, isoniazid (INH) and rifampicin (R). Extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) is characterized when a person develops MDR-TB which is resistant to additional drugs including fluoroquinolones and injectables. In the part II of this extensive discussion on all about Pulmonary TB, Prof. Dr. Salil Bendre joins us yet again as we explore the treatment strategies in place to tackle DR-TB.

TB Part #2 : The Anti TB Drugs

Pulmonary tuberculosis is the most common involvement in active tuberculosis. The clinical symptoms of pulmonary TB develop slowly and are nonspecific. These may include a prolonged cough with mucus, pleuritic chest pain, hemoptysis, dyspnea, wheezing, weakness or progressive fatigue, cachexia/weight loss, loss of appetite, chills/fever, night sweats, and malaise. The diagnosis of pulmonary TB is definitively established by isolation of M. tuberculosis from a bodily secretion or fluid. Additional diagnostic tools include sputum acid-fast bacilli (AFB) smear and nucleic acid amplification (NAA) testing. Join us LIVE as we discuss every clinical aspect of pulmonary tuberculosis with Dr. Salil Bendre.

Pulmonary Tuberculosis : Part 1

Here's another fascinating episode of the fantastic show 'Case of the Week'! Join us as Dr. Harshita Mishra presnts a very commonly seen pulmonology case and our host, Dr. Salil Bendre will guide us in reaching a diagnosis through highly logical investigations and a comprehensive clinical exam. It's a massive feast for all residents across the nation. Say no to exam anxiety and embrace the #JoyOfLearningMedicine. Stay tuned on October 6th at 9 p.m IST.

Case of the Week #2

Even after numerous reviews and the publishing of worldwide and national standards , acute asthma is a prevalent medical emergency that frequently still has poor management. Viruses and environmental allergens are the most frequent causes of exacerbations. Although the start, length, and severity of airflow restriction prior to presentation are all diverse, these issues typically develop over a period of several hours. This indicates that there is a chance for early detection and prompt treatment, even in fatal or almost fatal cases. Rarely, a patient will experience an abrupt, deadly onset of severe asthma. It's uncertain if this represents a distinct asthma phenotype. Join us for this #BlockBuster Medflix select session with a renowned pulmonologist Dr. Salil Bendre.

Interpreting an arterial blood gas (ABG) is a crucial skill for physicians, respiratory therapists, and other health care personnel. ABG interpretation is especially important in critically ill patients. It is an essential part of diagnosing and managing a patient’s oxygenation status and acid–base balance. In order to analyze blood gases, it is important to understand the associated physiology including the nature of acids and bases, and pH levels. Acid–base imbalances can cause complications in a variety of diseases, and the deviation can sometimes be so extreme that it becomes a life-threatening risk factor. The proper collection, management, and analysis of an ABG specimen are all critical to accurate results. Join us LIVE on Medflix as we comprehend the fundamentals of ABG Interpretation with Dr. Salil Bendre. This session is continuation of ABG interpreation part -1 and Dr. Salil will be covering clinical application and correction techniques.

Interpretation of ABG

PFTs are typically interpreted by comparing data collected in a single patient or subject to reference (predicted) values based on healthy participants. Predicted values should come from studies of normal or healthy persons with similar anthropometric characteristics. Lung volumes, spirometry and flow volume loops, and diffusing capacity are all components of PFTs. PFTs are commonly requested to: Look for indications of respiratory disease when patients report with respiratory symptoms (e.g. dyspnea, cough, cyanosis, wheezing, etc.), Assess for lung disease progression, monitor the efficacy of a specific treatment, and so on. Let's learn the fundamentals of PFT with Dr. Salil Bendre, a famous Medflix select faculty. This session is continuation of part-1 session on PFT.

Lung Function Test: Basics & Interpretation

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a term used to describe a collection of about 100 chronic lung diseases that are characterised by inflammation and scarring, making it difficult for the lungs to get enough oxygen. Pulmonary fibrosis is the term for the scarring. The symptoms and progression of various disorders can differ from one person to the next. Inflammation is a common thread that runs across all of the different types of the disease. Bronchiolitis, alveolitis, and vasculitis are all characteristics. Let's learn all about the pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management from this outstanding Medflix select creator, Dr. Salil Bendre.
