At Active Health Physio, we help people realize the importance of a good posture and improve their posture through our posture analysis program. What is Posture? Posture is the unconscious position assumed by your body in response to gravity. It is influenced by two main factors: 1. Your genes 2.

If you use your body properly during regular activities such as standing, sitting and sleeping, you can correct your posture. Why is Posture Correction important?

Expert Opinion “Every inch of forward head posture can increase the weight of the head on the spine by an additional 10 pounds.” Kapandji, Physiology of Joints, Vol 3. “90% of the stimulation and nutrition to the brain is generated by the movement of the spine” Dr. Roger Sperry, (Nobel Prize recipient for brain research) With experts in the field of physiotherapy placing so much importance on posture correction you would be doing yourselves a great favour by heeding their words. Problems caused by Poor Posture A poor posture, while causing considerable overall damage to your health, can manifest itself through things such as : 1.Back pain 2. Spinal dysfunction 3.Joint degeneration 4.Rounded shoulders 5.Potbelly So, howdo you avoid all the problems of poor posture?

    EKTA JAIN 0 Hrs 00 Min 26 Sec #PURNIMA #jv-u/18/2118#JVWU.JAIPUR IMPORTANCE OF EXERCISE AT WORK PLACE IMPORTANCE OF EXERCISE AT WORK PLACE No. 1: Exercise controls weight Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help maintain weight loss. When you engage in physical activity, you burn calories. If you burn more calories than you consume your body will begin to burn fat, leaving you with a healthier, leaner physique. Not only will this improve health but it is also shown to improve confidence as, let’s be honest, everyone likes to look their best! No. 2: Exercise combats health conditions and diseases Exercise has long been known to combat health conditions and diseases. High blood pressure, heart disease and type 2 diabetes are just some of the conditions that can be prevented or managed by regular activity. Being active actually boosts “good” cholesterol and decreases unhealthy triglycerides. This keeps your blood running smoothly and decreases the risk of cardiovascular and other diseases. This is especially important when you consider workers who could already be battling with their health or might be at high risk for developing certain conditions. No. 3: Exercise improves mood We have all been there at work. Our bad mood etched across our face after a stressful day. Each cup of strong coffee further fueling our agitation; desperately searching for light at the end of the tunnel. Few like moody co-workers, but the solution to lifting the cloud probably doesn’t lie at the bottom of your coffee cup. The answer to improving how you feel could actually be a quick workout at the gym or a brisk 30-minute walk. Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicals such as serotonin that should leave even the grumpiest employees feeling happier and more relaxed. No. 4: Exercise boosts energy If you find the workplace a subdued, somber place perhaps you need to find a way to inject some energy back into your employees. Nothing drains energy quite like a Monday morning meeting or a day stuck behind a desk. Exercise can actually go a long way to boosting energy. Many entrepreneurs swear by their early morning exercise regime. Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance. Exercise and physical activity deliver oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and help your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. And when your heart and lungs work more efficiently, you have more energy to go about your daily chores. No. 5: Exercise promotes better sleep Another reason for low energy levels during the working day may be a terrible sleep the night before. We have all been there at times of high stress. A million tabs open in our brain as we will our weary mind to fall asleep. Regular physical activity can help you fall asleep faster and deepen your sleep, leading to bright eyed and busy tailed workers! NO. 6 Fit employees are less likely to get sick. A person who is physically fit is generally more resistant to the “bug going around” than a person who is not fit. Reduced absenteeism and reduced health care expenditures are the result of a fit employee base. NO. 7 Fit employees have more energy. One of the many benefits of regular exercise is increased and sustained energy throughout the day. This energy allows the employee to stay focused on the task at handing, bringing the best of themselves to each task. NO.8 Fit employees have more self-confidence. A fit and healthy individual tends to have a high level of self-confidence, because they have proven to themselves that they can accomplish what it takes to obtain a level of physical fitness. This self-confidence empowers the employee to challenge themselves, and strive for higher levels of achievement in the workplace. NO.9 Fit employees inspire confidence. Any person who maintains a high fitness level, tends to be a person in whom others have confidence. NO. 10 Fit employees tend to take on more leadership roles. Because of the many positive benefits of a healthy lifestyle, a fit individual tends to make a good leader NO. 11 Fit employees set and achieve goals. Extraordinary fitness often demands that an individual set and reach goals related to their fitness. Learning to stay true to your goals and see them through to completion is a skill that is naturally brought into the workplace. An employee with the proven ability to set aggressive goals, and then REALISE those goals, is a valuable asset to any organization. NO. 12 Fit employees tend to have better attitudes. Fit employees generally “feel good”. They tend to have a physical and mental “balance” that results in a more positive attitude in the workplace. NO. 13 Fit employees are less stressed. Regular exercise releases the physical AND emotional tensions that life brings our way, thus a fit employee tends to have lower overall stress levels than an employee who does not engage in regular exercise. NO. 14 A fit employee base presents excellent team building opportunities. Team building activities are wonderful ways for employees to take their professional relationships to new levels, and discover new ways of working together. Obviously, employees that maintain a level of fitness are more likely to participate in these activities. NO. 15 Encouraging fitness demonstrates a concern for employee’s well-being, and pays off! Employees NOTICE when an employer shows concern for the health and well-being of their employee base through a variety of wellness programs. Further, it has been shown that employee turnover is significantly lower among employees that take advantage of a wellness program implemented by their employer.

It is influenced by two main factors: 1. Your genes 2. The way you use your body While you cannot do much (or anything at all) about the genes you inherited, you have complete control over the second factor significant contributor to personal stress. It doesn’t matter what kind of work you do; you’re likely to feel significantly stressed over something at one time or another. Acute stress is usually deemed to be positive; it helps to improve focus and concentration. However, chronic stress is detrimental, and when based on excessive, prolonged stress and environmental demands can be challenging to manage. Work-related stress can cause both mental and physical effects. You could be stressed because of heavy workloads, uncomfortable work conditions or difficulties with colleagues. With exercise comes improved performance and productivity throughout the rest of the day. Many people convince themselves that they’ll go for a run or head to the gym after work, but when it finally gets to home time, they feel so bogged down by everything that’s happened that day all they want to do is curl up and watch some TV. Even if they haven’t had a particularly stressful day, the fact that they have spent the majority of the day sedentary can make them feel unmotivated to go and work out. Exercising at work will reduce time spent sedentary. Have you heard the expression sitting is the new smoking? Well extended sitting time and low physical activity has been associated with poor health and premature death with researchers highlighting the potential risks in the paper, “Too much sitting and all-cause mortality: is there a causal link?” The majority of people complain about not getting enough quality sleep at night. Of course, this can be due to many things, such as consuming too much caffeine and watching TV too close to bedtime. However, physical activity during the day helps sleep quality at night. The most common causes for long-term absences are stress, acute medical conditions, mental ill-health, musculoskeletal injuries and back pain. Each year during the old and flu season, there is a dramatic rise in absenteeism rates for workers - not surprisingly. Exercise at work may result in healthier, improved immunity, which in turn will result in fewer sick days in the workplace. Exercise at work can mean saving time if done wisely - no need to go out for a run or a gym session, because you can take advantage of cumulative incidental movement throughout the day instead, using approaches such as HIIPA and NEAT or perform movement snacks at your desk using products such as the Animal Moves Office Deck in bouts of seconds to a few minutes at a time. Exercise is a huge positive for physical health, decades of research has established it as one of the best ways to lower risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes and stave off other ailments such as dementia - but that isn’t all. Exercise at work can result in improved mental health and mood, which can have a positive effect on all kinds of things, from your productivity to your home life. It helps to support the feel-good hormones such as serotonin, dopamine, and endorphins. A 2014 study by scientists at Stanford University showed that walking could significantly improve certain types of cognitive efforts involved in creativity. The researchers compared the creativity levels of people while they walked versus while they sat and found that a person’s creative output increased by an average of 60 per cent when walking.

Musculoskeletal disorders, for instance, are the most common work-related issues. A physiotherapist can identify hazards and signs such as loss of limb function, decreased grip strength, decreased range of motion and muscle weakness before the condition becomes chronic. The physiotherapist can also identify employees at risk and provide early intervention though screening. thanking you.

Of course, this can be due to many things, such as consuming too much caffeine and watching TV too close to bedtime. However, physical activity during the day helps sleep quality at night. The most common causes for long-term absences are stress, acute medical conditions, mental ill-health, musculoskeletal injuries and back pain. Each year during the old and flu season, there is a dramatic rise in absenteeism rates for workers - not surprisingly. Exercise at work may result in healthier, improved immunity, which in turn will result in fewer sick days in the workplace. Exercise at work can mean saving time if done wisely - no need to go out for a run or a gym session, because you can take advantage of cumulative incidental movement throughout the day instead, using approaches such as HIIPA and NEAT or perform movement snacks at your desk using products such as the Animal Moves Office Deck in bouts of seconds to a few minutes at a time. Exercise is a huge positive for physical health, decades of research has established it as one of the best ways to lower risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes and stave off other ailments such as dementia - but that isn’t all. Exercise at work can result in improved mental health and mood, which can have a positive effect on all kinds of things, from your productivity to your home life. It helps to support the feel-good hormones such as serotonin, dopamine, and endorphins. A 2014 study by scientists at Stanford University showed that walking could significantly improve certain types of cognitive efforts involved in creativity. The researchers compared the creativity levels of people while they walked versus while they sat and found that a person’s creative output increased by an average of 60 per cent when walking.

Musculoskeletal disorders, for instance, are the most common work-related issues. A physiotherapist can identify hazards and signs such as loss of limb function, decreased grip strength, decreased range of motion and muscle weakness before the condition becomes chronic. The physiotherapist can also identify employees at risk and provide early intervention though screening. Thanku You.

    #pallavi kanwar#bpt7sem#jv-u/18/2622#JAYOTI VIDHYAPEEH WOMAN UNIVERSITY opic - Posture Correction in physiotherapy What is the first thing people notice about you? Your Posture! Besides making you look good, your posture also affects you health. If you or your family are not feeling the best, posture could be the reason behind it. Get your posture checked at Active Physio Health. The Daily Posture Problems Our daily lives present a lot of posture problems on kids and adults alike. Whether it is sitting in a classroom, on the lounge watching TV, or at a computer for extended periods of time, almost everyone is in need of a good posture correction program. Ironically enough, people notice other people’s postures but don’t think about their own and therein lies the problem. At Active Health Physio, we help people realize the importance of a good posture and improve their posture through our posture analysis program. What is Posture? Posture is the unconscious position assumed by your body in response to gravity. It is influenced by two main factors: 1. Your genes 2. The way you use your body While you cannot do much (or anything at all) about the genes you inherited, you have complete control over the second factor. If you use your body properly during regular activities such as standing, sitting and sleeping, you can correct your posture. Why is Posture Correction important? Improving your posture is the simplest and smartest way to improve all your body’s functions from breathing and digestion to hormone production to even strengthening your immune system. Active Physio Health’s posture correction program provides the invaluable guidance to improve your posture. Analysing your posture is critical as it sets you in the right direction regarding your posture correction endeavours. Expert Opinion “Every inch of forward head posture can increase the weight of the head on the spine by an additional 10 pounds.” Kapandji, Physiology of Joints, Vol 3. “90% of the stimulation and nutrition to the brain is generated by the movement of the spine” Dr. Roger Sperry, (Nobel Prize recipient for brain research) With experts in the field of physiotherapy placing so much importance on posture correction you would be doing yourselves a great favour by heeding their words. Problems caused by Poor Posture A poor posture, while causing considerable overall damage to your health, can manifest itself through things such as : 1.Back pain 2. Spinal dysfunction 3.Joint degeneration 4.Rounded shoulders 5.Potbelly So, howdo you avoid all the problems of poor posture? You can avoid a lot of pain and trouble through proper posture correction by making a few lifestyle adjustments. Proper guidance is critical. When you come to Active Physio Health, you can use our posture analysis program to determine how ‘off’ your posture really is and what kind of effort and steps you will need to improve your posture. Our physiotherapists use their knowledge and experience to direct your posture correction process. Posture correction entails a combination of small (yet significant) lifestyle changes and professional physio care, both of which are taken complete care of at Active Physio’s posture correction program. Posture Correction Tips You can start some basic posture correction activities immediately such as: 1. Exercise. You need to build your muscles to give your neck and spine the strength they need. Yoga and Pilates are the best. 2.Hold your head. Tilting your head forward is the most common reason of bad posture, especially for people spending the whole day on a desk or computer. Be conscious of your head tilting forward and bring it back in alignment with your shoulders. 3.Keep your shoulders straight. Pull your shoulders back towards each other whenever you find them slouching. It will take a while to get used to such changes, but persevere and you will find a good posture to be the natural way you carry yourself, enjoying the multitude of health benefits that posture correction offers. At Active Physio Health’s posture correction program, people find themselves adapting to the new and healthier lifestyle with ease and comfort THANK YOU

    #Mansi Chhipa #jv-u/19/3060#JVWU.JAIPUR IMPORTANCE OF EXERCISE AT WORK PLACE IMPORTANCE OF EXERCISE AT WORK PLACE No. 1: Exercise controls weight Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help maintain weight loss. When you engage in physical activity, you burn calories. If you burn more calories than you consume your body will begin to burn fat, leaving you with a healthier, leaner physique. Not only will this improve health but it is also shown to improve confidence as, let’s be honest, everyone likes to look their best! No. 2: Exercise combats health conditions and diseases Exercise has long been known to combat health conditions and diseases. High blood pressure, heart disease and type 2 diabetes are just some of the conditions that can be prevented or managed by regular activity. Being active actually boosts “good” cholesterol and decreases unhealthy triglycerides. This keeps your blood running smoothly and decreases the risk of cardiovascular and other diseases. This is especially important when you consider workers who could already be battling with their health or might be at high risk for developing certain conditions. No. 3: Exercise improves mood We have all been there at work. Our bad mood etched across our face after a stressful day. Each cup of strong coffee further fueling our agitation; desperately searching for light at the end of the tunnel. Few like moody co-workers, but the solution to lifting the cloud probably doesn’t lie at the bottom of your coffee cup. The answer to improving how you feel could actually be a quick workout at the gym or a brisk 30-minute walk. Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicals such as serotonin that should leave even the grumpiest employees feeling happier and more relaxed. No. 4: Exercise boosts energy If you find the workplace a subdued, somber place perhaps you need to find a way to inject some energy back into your employees. Nothing drains energy quite like a Monday morning meeting or a day stuck behind a desk. Exercise can actually go a long way to boosting energy. Many entrepreneurs swear by their early morning exercise regime. Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance. Exercise and physical activity deliver oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and help your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. And when your heart and lungs work more efficiently, you have more energy to go about your daily chores. No. 5: Exercise promotes better sleep Another reason for low energy levels during the working day may be a terrible sleep the night before. We have all been there at times of high stress. A million tabs open in our brain as we will our weary mind to fall asleep. Regular physical activity can help you fall asleep faster and deepen your sleep, leading to bright eyed and busy tailed workers! NO. 6 Fit employees are less likely to get sick. A person who is physically fit is generally more resistant to the “bug going around” than a person who is not fit. Reduced absenteeism and reduced health care expenditures are the result of a fit employee base. NO. 7 Fit employees have more energy. One of the many benefits of regular exercise is increased and sustained energy throughout the day. This energy allows the employee to stay focused on the task at handing, bringing the best of themselves to each task. NO.8 Fit employees have more self-confidence. A fit and healthy individual tends to have a high level of self-confidence, because they have proven to themselves that they can accomplish what it takes to obtain a level of physical fitness. This self-confidence empowers the employee to challenge themselves, and strive for higher levels of achievement in the workplace. NO.9 Fit employees inspire confidence. Any person who maintains a high fitness level, tends to be a person in whom others have confidence. NO. 10 Fit employees tend to take on more leadership roles. Because of the many positive benefits of a healthy lifestyle, a fit individual tends to make a good leader NO. 11 Fit employees set and achieve goals. Extraordinary fitness often demands that an individual set and reach goals related to their fitness. Learning to stay true to your goals and see them through to completion is a skill that is naturally brought into the workplace. An employee with the proven ability to set aggressive goals, and then REALISE those goals, is a valuable asset to any organization. NO. 12 Fit employees tend to have better attitudes. Fit employees generally “feel good”. They tend to have a physical and mental “balance” that results in a more positive attitude in the workplace. NO. 13 Fit employees are less stressed. Regular exercise releases the physical AND emotional tensions that life brings our way, thus a fit employee tends to have lower overall stress levels than an employee who does not engage in regular exercise. NO. 14 A fit employee base presents excellent team building opportunities. Team building activities are wonderful ways for employees to take their professional relationships to new levels, and discover new ways of working together. Obviously, employees that maintain a level of fitness are more likely to participate in these activities. NO. 15 Encouraging fitness demonstrates a concern for employee’s well-being, and pays off! Employees NOTICE when an employer shows concern for the health and well-being of their employee base through a variety of wellness programs. Further, it has been shown that employee turnover is significantly lower among employees that take advantage of a wellness program implemented by their employer.

    #JYOTI BHARTI #jv-u/20/4285 #JVWU.JAIPUR IMPORTANCE OF EXERCISE AT WORK PLACE IMPORTANCE OF EXERCISE AT WORK PLACE No. 1: Exercise controls weight Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help maintain weight loss. When you engage in physical activity, you burn calories. If you burn more calories than you consume your body will begin to burn fat, leaving you with a healthier, leaner physique. Not only will this improve health but it is also shown to improve confidence as, let’s be honest, everyone likes to look their best! No. 2: Exercise combats health conditions and diseases Exercise has long been known to combat health conditions and diseases. High blood pressure, heart disease and type 2 diabetes are just some of the conditions that can be prevented or managed by regular activity. Being active actually boosts “good” cholesterol and decreases unhealthy triglycerides. This keeps your blood running smoothly and decreases the risk of cardiovascular and other diseases. This is especially important when you consider workers who could already be battling with their health or might be at high risk for developing certain conditions. No. 3: Exercise improves mood We have all been there at work. Our bad mood etched across our face after a stressful day. Each cup of strong coffee further fueling our agitation; desperately searching for light at the end of the tunnel. Few like moody co-workers, but the solution to lifting the cloud probably doesn’t lie at the bottom of your coffee cup. The answer to improving how you feel could actually be a quick workout at the gym or a brisk 30-minute walk. Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicals such as serotonin that should leave even the grumpiest employees feeling happier and more relaxed.

Your Posture! Besides making you look good, your posture also affects you health. If you or your family are not feeling the best, posture could be the reason behind it. Get your posture checked at Active Physio Health. The Daily Posture Problems Our daily lives present a lot of posture problems on kids and adults alike. Whether it is sitting in a classroom, on the lounge watching TV, or at a computer for extended periods of time, almost everyone is in need of a good posture correction program. Ironically enough, people notice other people’s postures but don’t think about their own and therein lies the problem. At Active Health Physio, we help people realize the importance of a good posture and improve their posture through our posture analysis program. What is Posture? Posture is the unconscious position assumed by your body in response to gravity. It is influenced by two main factors: 1. Your genes 2. The way you use your body While you cannot do much (or anything at all) about the genes you inherited, you have complete control over the second factor. If you use your body properly during regular activities such as standing, sitting and sleeping, you can correct your posture. Why is Posture Correction important? Improving your posture is the simplest and smartest way to improve all your body’s functions from breathing and digestion to hormone production to even strengthening your immune system. Active Physio Health’s posture correction program provides the invaluable guidance to improve your posture. Analysing your posture is critical as it sets you in the right direction regarding your posture correction endeavours. Expert Opinion “Every inch of forward head posture can increase the weight of the head on the spine by an additional 10 pounds.” Kapandji, Physiology of Joints, Vol 3. “90% of the stimulation and nutrition to the brain is generated by the movement of the spine” Dr. Roger Sperry, (Nobel Prize recipient for brain research) With experts in the field of physiotherapy placing so much importance on posture correction you would be doing yourselves a great favour by heeding their words. Problems caused by Poor Posture A poor posture, while causing considerable overall damage to your health, can manifest itself through things such as : 1.Back pain 2. Spinal dysfunction 3.Joint degeneration 4.Rounded shoulders 5.Potbelly So, howdo you avoid all the problems of poor posture? You can avoid a lot of pain and trouble through proper posture correction by making a few lifestyle adjustments. Proper guidance is critical. When you come to Active Physio Health, you can use our posture analysis program to determine how ‘off’ your posture really is and what kind of effort and steps you will need to improve your posture. Our physiotherapists use their knowledge and experience to direct your posture correction process. Posture correction entails a combination of small (yet significant) lifestyle changes and professional physio care, both of which are taken complete care of at Active Physio’s posture correction program. Posture Correction Tips You can start some basic posture correction activities immediately such as: 1. Exercise. You need to build your muscles to give your neck and spine the strength they need. Yoga and Pilates are the best. 2.Hold your head. Tilting your head forward is the most common reason of bad posture, especially for people spending the whole day on a desk or computer. Be conscious of your head tilting forward and bring it back in alignment with your shoulders. 3.Keep your shoulders straight. Pull your shoulders back towards each other whenever you find them slouching. It will take a while to get used to such changes, but persevere and you will find a good posture to be the natural way you carry yourself, enjoying the multitude of health benefits that posture correction offers. At Active Physio Health’s posture correction program, people find themselves adapting to the new and healthier lifestyle with ease and comfort. THANKS

Exercise therapy is defined as a regimen or plan of physical activities designed and prescribed to facilitate the patients to recover from diseases and any conditions, which disturb their movement and activity of daily life or maintain a state of well‐being [1] through neuro re‐education, gait training, and therapeutic activities. It is systemic execution of planned physical movements, postures, or activities intended to enable the patients to (1) reduce risk, (2) enhance function, (3) remediate or prevent impairment, (4) optimize overall health, and (5) improve fitness and well‐being [2]. Work can be stressful and is likely to be a significant contributor to personal stress. It doesn’t matter what kind of work you do; you’re likely to feel significantly stressed over something at one time or another. Acute stress is usually deemed to be positive; it helps to improve focus and concentration. However, chronic stress is detrimental, and when based on excessive, prolonged stress and environmental demands can be challenging to manage.

Of course, this can be due to many things, such as consuming too much caffeine and watching TV too close to bedtime. However, physical activity during the day helps sleep quality at night. The most common causes for long-term absences are stress, acute medical conditions, mental ill-health, musculoskeletal injuries and back pain. Each year during the old and flu season, there is a dramatic rise in absenteeism rates for workers - not surprisingly. Exercise at work may result in healthier, improved immunity, which in turn will result in fewer sick days in the workplace. Exercise at work can mean saving time if done wisely - no need to go out for a run or a gym session, because you can take advantage of cumulative incidental movement throughout the day instead, using approaches such as HIIPA and NEAT or perform movement snacks at your desk using products such as the Animal Moves Office Deck in bouts of seconds to a few minutes at a time. Exercise is a huge positive for physical health, decades of research has established it as one of the best ways to lower risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes and stave off other ailments such as dementia - but that isn’t all. Exercise at work can result in improved mental health and mood, which can have a positive effect on all kinds of things, from your productivity to your home life. It helps to support the feel-good hormones such as serotonin, dopamine, and endorphins. A 2014 study by scientists at Stanford University showed that walking could significantly improve certain types of cognitive efforts involved in creativity. The researchers compared the creativity levels of people while they walked versus while they sat and found that a person’s creative output increased by an average of 60 per cent when walking.

Sickness absence is an important economic issue for businesses, with more than 92 million working days being lost due to sickness every year in Australia. Statistics show that the average number of days off sick, per employee, totaled 9.5 days per employee in 2017. Sickness absence also costs businesses lost productivity and revenue with Australian businesses losing an average of $3,608 an employee which amount to a staggering $33 billion a year. In addition to affecting businesses, sick leave is also an important indicator of a person’s underlying health. Extended periods of sick leave can negatively affect an employee’s job security, social relationships, and financial status. Since the well-being of employees is just as important as their skills, organisations must put measures in place to improve both employee health and workplace productivity. One of the most cost-effective solutions that can help reduce sickness absence and minimise the impact on your company is having a work assessment and structured exercise program done by a physiotherapist for your employees.

    #jvwu#devendri#bpt1sem#jv-u/21/50 49#CDA- topic- Importance of exercise in daily life. Exercise controls weight Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help maintain weight loss. When you engage in physical activity, you burn calories. The more intense the activity, the more calories you burn. Regular trips to the gym are great, but dont worry if you cant find a large chunk of time to exercise every day. Any amount of activity is better than none at all. To reap the benefits of exercise, just get more active throughout your day — take the stairs instead of the elevator or rev up your household chores. Consistency is key. 2. Exercise combats health conditions and diseases Worried about heart disease? Hoping to prevent high blood pressure? No matter what your current weight is, being active boosts high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, the "good" cholesterol, and it decreases unhealthy triglycerides. This one-two punch keeps your blood flowing smoothly, which decreases your risk of cardiovascular diseases. Regular exercise helps prevent or manage many health problems and concerns, including: Stroke Metabolic syndrome High blood pressure Type 2 diabetes Depression Anxiety Many types of cancer Arthritis Falls It can also help improve cognitive function and helps lower the risk of death from all causes. 3. Exercise improves mood Need an emotional lift? Or need to destress after a stressful day? A gym session or brisk walk can help. Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicals that may leave you feeling happier, more relaxed and less anxious. You may also feel better about your appearance and yourself when you exercise regularly, which can boost your confidence and improve your self-esteem. 4. Exercise boosts energy Winded by grocery shopping or household chores? Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance. Exercise delivers oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and helps your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. And when your heart and lung health improve, you have more energy to tackle daily chores. 5. Exercise promotes better sleep Struggling to snooze? Regular physical activity can help you fall asleep faster, get better sleep and deepen your sleep. Just dont exercise too close to bedtime, or you may be too energized to go to sleep. 6. Exercise puts the spark back into your sex life Do you feel too tired or too out of shape to enjoy physical intimacy? Regular physical activity can improve energy levels and increase your confidence about your physical appearance, which may boost your sex life. But theres even more to it than that. Regular physical activity may enhance arousal for women. And men who exercise regularly are less likely to have problems with erectile dysfunction than are men who dont exercise. 7. Exercise can be fun … and social! Exercise and physical activity can be enjoyable. They give you a chance to unwind, enjoy the outdoors or simply engage in activities that make you happy. Physical activity can also help you connect with family or friends in a fun social setting. So take a dance class, hit the hiking trails or join a soccer team. Find a physical activity you enjoy, and just do it. Bored? Try something new, or do something with friends or family. The bottom line on exercise Exercise and physical activity are great ways to feel better, boost your health and have fun. For most healthy adults, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends these exercise guidelines: Aerobic activity. Get at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity a week, or a combination of moderate and vigorous activity. The guidelines suggest that you spread out this exercise during the course of a week. To provide even greater health benefit and to assist with weight loss or maintaining weight loss, at least 300 minutes a week is recommended. But even small amounts of physical activity are helpful. Being active for short periods of time throughout the day can add up to provide health benefit. Strength training. Do strength training exercises for all major muscle groups at least two times a week. Aim to do a single set of each exercise using a weight or resistance level heavy enough to tire your muscles after about 12 to 15 repetitions. Moderate aerobic exercise includes activities such as brisk walking, biking, swimming and mowing the lawn. Vigorous aerobic exercise includes activities such as running, heavy yardwork and aerobic dancing. Strength training can include use of weight machines, your own body weight, heavy bags, resistance tubing or resistance paddles in the water, or activities such as rock climbing. If you want to lose weight, meet specific fitness goals or get even more benefits, you may need to ramp up your moderate aerobic activity even more. Remember to check with your doctor before starting a new exercise program, especially if you have any concerns about your fitness, havent exercised for a long time, have chronic health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes or arthritis

    #Sneha Kumari (JV-D/19/3229) DPT 05 SEM # JVWU # UNIVERSITY # JV Mission # CDA # Topic- Posture in physiotherpy # Introduction Good posture is about more than standing up straight so you can look your best.It is an important part of your long-term health.Making sure that you hold your body the right way, whether you are moving or still, can prevent pain, injuries, and other health problems.# Posture is defined as the attitude assumed by the body either with support during the course of muscular activity, or as a result of the coordinated action performed by a group of muscles working to maintain the stability. There are two types Dynamic posture is how you hold yourself when you are moving, like when you are walking, running, or bending over to pick up something. It is usually required to form an efficient basis for movement. Muscles and non-contractile structures have to work to adapt to changing circumstances Static posture is how you hold yourself when you are not moving, like when you are sitting, standing, or sleeping. Body segments are aligned and maintained in fixed positions. This is usually achieved by co-ordination and interaction of various muscle groups which are working statically to counteract gravity and other forces.# Posture Assessment In an ideal posture, the line of gravity should pass through specific points of the body. This can simply be observed or evaluated using a plumb line to assess the midline of the body.This line should pass through the lobe of the ear, the shoulder joint, the hip joint, though the greater trochanter of the femur, then slightly anterior to the midline of the knee joint and lastly anterior to the lateral malleolus.When viewed from either the front or the back, the vertical line passing through the bodys centre of gravity should theoretically bisect the body into two equal halves, with the bodyweight distributed evenly between the two feet.# Examples of Types of Standing Posture Lordotic posture- Lordosis refers to the normal inward curvature of the spine. When this curve is exaggerated it is usually referred to as hyperlordosis. The pelvis is usually tilted anteriorly.Sway Back Posture- In this type of posture, there is forward head, hyper-extension of the cervical spine, flexion of the thoracic spine, lumbar spine extension, posterior tilt of the pelvis, hip and knee hyper-extension and ankle slightly plantar,Forward head posture - Describes the shift of the head forward with the chin poking out. It is caused by increased flexion of the lower cervical spine and upper thoracic spine with increased extension of the upper cervical spine and extension of the occiput on C1. Kyphosis - An increased convex curve observed in the thoracic or sacral regions of the spine.# THANK YOU

    SHUBHANSHI MISHRA PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS Introduction- Pulmonary TB is a bacterial infection of the lungs that can cause a range of symptoms, including chest pain, breathlessness, and severe coughing. Pulmonary TB can be life-threatening if a person does not receive treatment. People with active TB can spread the bacteria through the air. Causes Pulmonary TB is caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M tuberculosis).TB is contagious. This means the bacteria is easily spread from an infected person to someone else. You can get TB by breathing in air droplets from a cough or sneeze of an infected person. Symtoms Symptoms of TB can develop slowly and may vary. The main symptoms of pulmonary TB include: • a bad cough that lasts for at least 3 weeks • chest pain • coughing up blood or phlegm from the lungs • breathlessness More general symptoms of TB can include: • weight loss • a loss of appetite • nausea and vomiting • low energy or fatigue • fever and chills • night sweats People with latent TB do not have any symptoms or feel sick. Risk factors for pulmonary TB The risk for getting pulmonary TB is highest for people who are in close contact with those who have TB. This includes being around family or friends with TB or working in places such as the following that often house people with TB: • correctional facilities • group homes • nursing homes • hospitals • shelters People also at risk for developing pulmonary TB disease are: • older adults • small children • people who smoke • people with an autoimmune disorder, such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis • people with lifelong conditions, such as diabetes or kidney disease • people who inject drugs • people who are immunocompromised, such as those living with HIV, undergoingchemotherapy, or taking chronic steroids. Pulmonary TB diagnosis During your examination, your doctor will: • conduct a physical exam to check for fluid in your lungs • ask about your medical history • schedule a chest X-ray • order a medical test to confirm pulmonary TB Pulmonary TB spread You can’t get pulmonary TB by: • shaking hands • sharing food or drink • sleeping in the same bed • kissing TB is airborne, which means you can become infected with M. tuberculosis after breathing air exhaled by someone with tuberculosis. This can be air from: • coughing • sneezing • laughing • singing The germs can stay in the air for several hours. It’s possible to inhale them even when the infected person isn’t in the room. But usually you have to be close to someone with TB for a long period of time to catch it. Treatment It’s important to get treatment for latent TB even if you have no symptoms. You can still develop pulmonary TB disease in the future. You may only need one TB drug if you have latent TB. If you have pulmonary TB, your doctor may prescribe several medicines. You’ll need to take these drugs for six months or longer for the best results. The most common TB medicines are: • isoniazid • pyrazinamide • ethambutol (Myambutol) • rifampin (Rifadin) Name –shubhanshi mishra (jv-d/18/2289) DPT 5th sem

Symptoms typically include pain at the site of the break and a decreased ability to move the affected arm.Complications can include a collection of air in the pleural space surrounding the lung (pneumothorax), injury to the nerves or blood vessels in the area, and an unpleasant appearance . CAUSES Common cause of a broken collarbone include: 1- falls, such as falling onto your shoulder or onto your oustretched hand . 2- sports injuries such as direct blow to your shoulder on field ,rink or court. 3-vehicle trauma from a car, motocycle or bike accident. 4- birth injury from passing through the birth canal. Symptoms Signs and symptoms of a broken collarbone include: 1- Pain that increases with shoulder movement. 2- Swelling. 3- Tenderness. 4- Bruising. 5- A bulge on or near your shoulder. 6- A grinding or crackling sound when you try to move your shoulder. 7- Stiffness or inability to move your shoulder. 8- Newborn children will often not move their arm for several days following a birth-related collarbone fracture. Diagnosis During the physical exam, your doctor will inspect the affected area for tenderness, swelling, deformity or an open wound. X-rays determine the extent of a broken collarbone, pinpoint its location and determine if theres injury to the joints. Your doctor might also recommend a CT scan to get more-detailed images. Treatment Restricting the movement of any broken bone is critical to healing. To immobilize a broken collarbone, youll likely need to wear an arm sling. How long immobilization is needed depends on the severity of the injury. Bone union usually takes three to six weeks for children and six to 12 weeks for adults. A newborns collarbone that breaks during delivery typically heals with only pain control and careful handling of the baby.

    STROKE INTRODUCTION: A stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of your brain is interrupted or reduced, preventing brain tissue from getting oxygen and nutrients. Brain cells begin to die in minutes. A stroke is a medical emergency, and prompt treatment is crucial. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS: 1) Sudden numbness or weakness in the face, arm, or leg, especially on one side of the body. 2)Sudden confusion, trouble speaking, or difficulty understanding speech. 3)Sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes. 4)Sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance, or lack of coordination. 5)Sudden severe headache with no known cause. Acting F.A.S.T. Is Key for Stroke F—Face: Ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop? A—Arms: Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward? S—Speech: Ask the person to repeat a simple phrase. Is the speech slurred or strange? T—Time: If you see any of these signs, call 9-1-1 right away. TYPES : 1)Ischemic stroke:- In 8 out of 10 strokes, a blood vessel that takes blood to your brain gets plugged. It happens when fatty deposits in arteries break off and travel to the brain or when poor blood flow from an irregular heartbeat forms a blood clot. 2)Hemorrhagic stroke:- Its less common than an ischemic stroke but can be more serious. A blood vessel in your brain balloons up and bursts, or a weakened one leaks. Uncontrolled high blood pressure and taking too much blood thinner. CAUSES:- 1) High blood pressure = Your doctor may call it hypertension. Its the biggest cause of strokes. 2)Tobacco = Smoking or chewing it raises your odds of a stroke. Nicotine makes your blood pressure go up. Cigarette smoke causes a fatty buildup in your main neck artery. It also thickens your blood and makes it more likely to clot. 3)Heart disease = This condition includes defective heart valves as well as atrial fibrillation, or irregular heartbeat, which causes a quarter of all strokes among the very elderly. DIAGNOSIS:- 1) Computerized tomography (CT) scan- A CT scan uses a series of X-rays to create a detailed image of your brain. A CT scan can show bleeding in the brain, an ischemic stroke, a tumor or other conditions. 2)Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)- An MRI uses powerful radio waves and magnets to create a detailed view of your brain. An MRI can detect brain tissue damaged by an ischemic stroke and brain hemorrhages. TREATMENT:- MEDICATIONS:-(i) Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) (ii) Blood pressure drugs (iii) Antiplatelets drugs includes aspirin and clopdoriel. THERAPY:- 1) Speech therapy Treats people with speech and language problems. 2) Rehabilitation Retraining the brains pathways to improve mental and physical functioning after an illness or injury. For example, after a blow to the head (concussion). 3) Occupational Therapy Improves daily living and work skills of patients. 4) Physical Therapy Restores muscle strength and function through exercise. 5) Stroke rehabilitation Relearning skills that are lost when the brain is damaged by a stroke. For example, how to walk and talk. NAME: TRIPTI SHARMA (jv-d/18/2698) HARSHITA CHOUDHARY(JV-I/18/2484) COURSE: DPT 5th SEMESTER

An MRI can detect brain tissue damaged by an ischemic stroke and brain hemorrhages. TREATMENT:- MEDICATIONS:-(i) Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) (ii) Blood pressure drugs (iii) Antiplatelets drugs includes aspirin and clopdoriel. THERAPY:- 1) Speech therapy Treats people with speech and language problems. 2) Rehabilitation Retraining the brains pathways to improve mental and physical functioning after an illness or injury. For example, after a blow to the head (concussion). 3) Occupational Therapy Improves daily living and work skills of patients. 4) Physical Therapy Restores muscle strength and function through exercise. 5) Stroke rehabilitation Relearning skills that are lost when the brain is damaged by a stroke. For example, how to walk and talk. NAME: TRIPTI SHARMA (jv-d/18/2698) HARSHITA CHOUDHARY(JV-I/18/2484) COURSE: DPT 5th SEMESTER

Your Posture! Besides making you look good, your posture also affects you health. If you or your family are not feeling the best, posture could be the reason behind it. Get your posture checked at Active Physio Health. The Daily Posture Problems Our daily lives present a lot of posture problems on kids and adults alike. Whether it is sitting in a classroom, on the lounge watching TV, or at a computer for extended periods of time, almost everyone is in need of a good posture correction program. Ironically enough, people notice other people’s postures but don’t think about their own and therein lies the problem. At Active Health Physio, we help people realize the importance of a good posture and improve their posture through our posture analysis program. What is Posture? Posture is the unconscious position assumed by your body in response to gravity. It is influenced by two main factors: 1. Your genes 2. The way you use your body While you cannot do much (or anything at all) about the genes you inherited, you have complete control over the second factor. If you use your body properly during regular activities such as standing, sitting and sleeping, you can correct your posture. Why is Posture Correction important? Improving your posture is the simplest and smartest way to improve all your body’s functions from breathing and digestion to hormone production to even strengthening your immune system. Active Physio Health’s posture correction program provides the invaluable guidance to improve your posture. Analysing your posture is critical as it sets you in the right direction regarding your posture correction endeavours. Expert Opinion “Every inch of forward head posture can increase the weight of the head on the spine by an additional 10 pounds.” Kapandji, Physiology of Joints, Vol 3. “90% of the stimulation and nutrition to the brain is generated by the movement of the spine” Dr. Roger Sperry, (Nobel Prize recipient for brain research) With experts in the field of physiotherapy placing so much importance on posture correction you would be doing yourselves a great favour by heeding their words. Problems caused by Poor Posture A poor posture, while causing considerable overall damage to your health, can manifest itself through things such as : 1.Back pain 2. Spinal dysfunction 3.Joint degeneration 4.Rounded shoulders 5.Potbelly So, howdo you avoid all the problems of poor posture? You can avoid a lot of pain and trouble through proper posture correction by making a few lifestyle adjustments. Proper guidance is critical. When you come to Active Physio Health, you can use our posture analysis program to determine how ‘off’ your posture really is and what kind of effort and steps you will need to improve your posture. Our physiotherapists use their knowledge and experience to direct your posture correction process. Posture correction entails a combination of small (yet significant) lifestyle changes and professional physio care, both of which are taken complete care of at Active Physio’s posture correction program. Posture Correction Tips You can start some basic posture correction activities immediately such as: 1. Exercise. You need to build your muscles to give your neck and spine the strength they need. Yoga and Pilates are the best. 2.Hold your head. Tilting your head forward is the most common reason of bad posture, especially for people spending the whole day on a desk or computer. Be conscious of your head tilting forward and bring it back in alignment with your shoulders. 3.Keep your shoulders straight. Pull your shoulders back towards each other whenever you find them slouching. It will take a while to get used to such changes, but persevere and you will find a good posture to be the natural way you carry yourself, enjoying the multitude of health benefits that posture correction offers. At Active Physio Health’s posture correction program, people find themselves adapting to the new and healthier lifestyle with ease and comfort.

[Gms/ dL ]  Normal 32-36 g/Dl INVESTIGATIONS 25. MANAGEMENT Care Objectives  Determine the Cause of Iron Deficiency  The etiology is often multifactorial; even when there is an obvious cause, investigation of serious underlying causes (e.g.cancer in adults) is recommended.  Aim of Treatment  Normalize hemoglobin levels and red cell indices; replenish iron stores.  Individualize disease-specific management depending on underlying cause.  Lifestyle Management It is recommended that patients with iron deficiency receive dietary advice . 26. NON PHARMOCOLOGICAL MANAGEMENT:  Tea and coffee inhibit iron absorption when consumed with a meal or shortly after a meal.  Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is also a powerful enhancer of iron absorption from nonmeat foods when consumed with a meal. The size of the vitamin C effect on iron absorption increases with the quantity of vitamin C in the meal.  Germination and fermentation of cereals and legumes improve the bioavailability of iron by reducing the content of phytate, a substance in food that inhibits iron absorption.  Promote and support exclusive breastfeeding for about 6 months followed by breastfeeding with appropriate complementary foods, including iron-rich through the second year of life. 27. RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCE Mg/DAY Men Adult 8 mg Women Adult (age 50 on) 8 mg Adult (ages 19 to 50) 18 mg Pregnant 27 mg Lactating 9 mg to 10 mg Adolescents (ages 9 to 18) Girls Boys 8 mg to 15 mg 8 mg to 11 mg Children (birth to age 8) Ages 4 to 8 10 mg Infants (7 months to 1 year) Infants (birth to 6 months) 11 mg 0.27 mg 28. MANAGEMENT Complimentary parasite control measures  Anti-helminthic therapy with 400 mg of single dose of albendazole is given to eliminate hook worms before the initiation of iron and folic acid therapy.  Child - <2yrs-200mg/day single dose  Pregnancy- Albendazole is contraindicated in first trimester, can be administered in second or third trimester. 29. TREATMENT FOR 6-24 MONTHS Dosage Birth-weight category Duration 12.5 mg iron + 50 ug folic acid daily Normal Low birth weight (<2500 g) 6-24 months of age 2-24 months of age 30. GROUP DOSAGE/day Children 2-5 years 20-30 mg iron Children 6-11 years 30-60 mg iron Adolescents and adults 60 mg iron TREATMENT OF MILD &MODERATE  Anemia will correct within 2 to 4 months if appropriate iron dosages are administered and underlying cause of iron deficiency is corrected.  Continue iron therapy an additional 4 to 6 months (adults) after the hemoglobin normalizes to replenish the iron stores. 31. TREATMENT OF SEVERE ANEMIA  After completing 3 months of therapeutic supplementation, pregnant women and infants should continue preventive supplementation program AGE GROUP DOSE DURATION <2 years 25 mg iron + 100-400 ug folic acid daily 3 months 2-12 years 60 mg iron + 400 ug folic acid daily 3 months Adolescents and adults, including pregnant women 120 mg iron + 400 ug folic acid daily 3 months 32. Prevalence of anemia in pregnancy Dose Duration >40 % in population 60 mg iron + 400 ug folic acid daily 6 months in pregnancy, and continuing to 3 months postpartum TREATMENT OF PREGNANT WOMEN 33.  Iron absorption may be decreased by antacids or supplements containing aluminum, maganesium, calcium, zinc, proton pump inhibitors.  Space administration apart by at least 2 hours.  Oral iron preparations may cause nausea, vomiting, dyspepsia, constipation, diarrhea or dark stools.  Strategies to minimize these effects include: start at a lower dose and increase gradually over 4 to 5 days; giving divided doses or the lowest effective dose, or taking supplements with meals  Although sustained release iron preparations tend towards less gastrointestinal side effects, they may not be as effective as standard film coated products due to reduced/poor iron absorption.15 34. BENEFITS OF THERAPY POPULATION GROUP BENEFITS Children Improved behaviour and cognitive development Where anaemia is common, improved child survival Adolescents Improved cognitive development In girls, better iron stores for later pregnancies Pregnant women and their infants Decreased low birth weight Where severe anaemia is common, decreased maternal mortality and obstetrical complications All individuals Improved fitness and work capacity Improved cognition 35.

    Sonam kumawat from BPT 3rd sem Enroll(jv-u/19/3199) #jvwu #university#CDA Thrombosis is the process of a blood clot, also known as a thrombus, forming in a blood vessel. This clot can block or obstruct blood flow in the affected area, as well as cause serious complications if the clot moves to a crucial part of the circulatory system, such as the brain or the lungs. It is normal for the body to produce clotting factors like platelets and fibrin when a blood vessel is injured, to prevent an excessive loss of blood from the body. If this effect is over productive it can obstruct the flow of blood and form an embolus that moves around the blood stream. Thrombosis Types Thrombosis can be broadly classified as either venous thrombosis or arterial thrombosis, according to where the thrombus presents in the body. Venous thrombosis occurs in the veins and is categorized further according to where it occurs including: Deep vein thrombosis Portal vein thrombosis Renal vein thrombosis Jugular vein thrombosis Budd-Chiari Syndrome Paget-Schoetter disease Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis Causes There are three main causes of thrombosis: hypercoagulability, injury to the endothelial cells of the blood vessel wall and abnormal flow of the blood. Hypercoagulability, also known as thrombophilia, refers higher levels of coagulation factors in the blood that increase susceptibility to thrombosis. This is usually as a result of genetics or disorders of the immune system. Injury to the epithelial cells on the wall of blood vessels after trauma, surgery or and infection can also precipitate coagulation and possible thrombosis. Abnormal blood flow, such as venous stasis following heart failure or long periods of sedentary behavior, can also cause thrombosis to occur. Additionally, some other health conditions can affect blood flow and lead to the production of a thrombus, including atrial fibrillation and cancer. Prevention and Treatment As stasis of the blood is associated with increased risk of thrombosis, it is important that movements are made regularly, particularly if susceptible individuals are likely to be sedentary for long periods of time, such as in bed or on an airplane. For people at high risk of venous thromboembolism, heparin can be administered to reduce risk of pulmonary embolism, although this is associated with higher susceptibility to bleeding due to the reduced efficacy of the clotting factors. Therefore, heparin offers greater use in the treatment, rather than prevention of thrombosis. A more coherent method to prevent the formation of deep vein thrombosis is the use of compression stockings, which mechanically support the vein to inhibit the formation of blood clots. This is particularly beneficial as there are few side effects. Anticoagulants may increase the risk of major bleeding slightly, but has been found to offer a benefit in both the prevention and treatment of thrombosis.

Symptoms Post-Polio Syndrome Post-polio syndrome (PPS) is a condition that can affect polio survivors decades after they recover from their initial poliovirus infection. Most people who get infected with poliovirus (about 72 out of 100) will not have any visible symptoms. About 1 out of 4 people with poliovirus infection will have flu-like symptoms that may include: • Sore throat • Fever • Tiredness • Nausea • Headache • Stomach pain These symptoms usually last 2 to 5 days, then go away on their own. A smaller proportion of people with poliovirus infection will develop other, more serious symptoms that affect the brain and spinal cord: • Paresthesia (feeling of pins and needles in the legs) • Meningitis (infection of the covering of the spinal cord and/or brain) occurs in about 1 out of 25 people with poliovirus infection • Paralysis (can’t move parts of the body) or weakness in the arms, legs, or both, occurs in about 1 out of 200 people with poliovirus infection Paralysis is the most severe symptom associated with polio, because it can lead to permanent disability and death. Between 2 and 10 out of 100 people who have paralysis from poliovirus infection die, because the virus affects the muscles that help them breathe. Even children who seem to fully recover can develop new muscle pain, weakness, or paralysis as adults, 15 to 40 years later. This is called post-polio syndrome. Note that “poliomyelitis” (or “polio” for short) is defined as the paralytic disease. So only people with the paralytic infection are considered to have the disease. Transmission • Poliovirus is very contagious and spreads through person-to-person contact. • It lives in an infected person’s throat and intestines. Poliovirus only infects people. It enters the body through the mouth and spreads through: • Contact with the feces (poop) of an infected person. • Droplets from a sneeze or cough of an infected person (less common). You can get infected with poliovirus if: • You have feces on your hands, and you touch your mouth. • You put in your mouth objects like toys that are contaminated with feces. An infected person may spread the virus to others immediately before and up to 2 weeks after symptoms appear. • The virus can live in an infected person’s feces for many weeks. It can contaminate food and water in unsanitary conditions. • People who don’t have symptoms can still pass the virus to others and make them sick. Prevention & Treatment There are two types of vaccine that can prevent polio: • Inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) given as an injection in the leg or arm, depending on the patient’s age. Only IPV has been used in the United States since 2000. • Oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) is still used throughout much of the world. Polio vaccine protects children by preparing their bodies to fight the poliovirus. Almost all children (99 children out of 100) who get all the recommended doses of the inactivated polio vaccine will be protected from polio.

Symptoms Post-Polio Syndrome Post-polio syndrome (PPS) is a condition that can affect polio survivors decades after they recover from their initial poliovirus infection. Most people who get infected with poliovirus (about 72 out of 100) will not have any visible symptoms. About 1 out of 4 people with poliovirus infection will have flu-like symptoms that may include: • Sore throat • Fever • Tiredness • Nausea • Headache • Stomach pain These symptoms usually last 2 to 5 days, then go away on their own. A smaller proportion of people with poliovirus infection will develop other, more serious symptoms that affect the brain and spinal cord: • Paresthesia (feeling of pins and needles in the legs) • Meningitis (infection of the covering of the spinal cord and/or brain) occurs in about 1 out of 25 people with poliovirus infection • Paralysis (can’t move parts of the body) or weakness in the arms, legs, or both, occurs in about 1 out of 200 people with poliovirus infection Paralysis is the most severe symptom associated with polio, because it can lead to permanent disability and death. Between 2 and 10 out of 100 people who have paralysis from poliovirus infection die, because the virus affects the muscles that help them breathe. Even children who seem to fully recover can develop new muscle pain, weakness, or paralysis as adults, 15 to 40 years later. This is called post-polio syndrome. Note that “poliomyelitis” (or “polio” for short) is defined as the paralytic disease. So only people with the paralytic infection are considered to have the disease. Transmission • Poliovirus is very contagious and spreads through person-to-person contact. • It lives in an infected person’s throat and intestines. Poliovirus only infects people. It enters the body through the mouth and spreads through: • Contact with the feces (poop) of an infected person. • Droplets from a sneeze or cough of an infected person (less common). You can get infected with poliovirus if: • You have feces on your hands, and you touch your mouth. • You put in your mouth objects like toys that are contaminated with feces. An infected person may spread the virus to others immediately before and up to 2 weeks after symptoms appear. • The virus can live in an infected person’s feces for many weeks. It can contaminate food and water in unsanitary conditions. • People who don’t have symptoms can still pass the virus to others and make them sick. Prevention & Treatment There are two types of vaccine that can prevent polio: • Inactivated poliovirus vaccine (IPV) given as an injection in the leg or arm, depending on the patient’s age. Only IPV has been used in the United States since 2000. • Oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) is still used throughout much of the world. Polio vaccine protects children by preparing their bodies to fight the poliovirus. Almost all children (99 children out of 100) who get all the recommended doses of the inactivated polio vaccine will be protected from polio.

    SWETA SINGH Sweta singh (jv-i/19/3208) BPT 3rd semester #jvwu #jvmission #CDA. topic -Tuberculosis Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious infection that usually attacks your lungs. It can also spread to other parts of your body, like your brain and spine. A type of bacteria called Mycobacterium tuberculosis causes it. Can tuberculosis be cured? In the 20th century, TB was a leading cause of death in the United States. Today, most cases are cured with antibiotics. But it takes a long time. You have to take medications for at least 6 to 9 months. Tuberculosis Types A TB infection doesn’t always mean you’ll get sick. There are two forms of the disease: Latent TB. You have the germs in your body, but your immune system keeps them from spreading. You don’t have any symptoms, and you’re not contagious. But the infection is still alive and can one day become active. If you’re at high risk for re-activation -- for instance, if you have HIV, you had an infection in the past 2 years, your chest X-ray is unusual, or your immune system is weakened -- your doctor will give you medications to prevent active TB. Active TB. The germs multiply and make you sick. You can spread the disease to others. Ninety percent of active cases in adults come from a latent TB infection. A latent or active TB infection can also be drug-resistant, meaning certain medications don’t work against the bacteria. Tuberculosis Signs and Symptoms Latent TB doesn’t have symptoms. A skin or blood test can tell if you have it. Signs of active TB disease include: A cough that lasts more than 3 weeks Chest pain Coughing up blood Feeling tired all the time Night sweats Chills Fever Loss of appetite Weight loss Tuberculosis Risk Factors You could be more likely to get TB if: A friend, co-worker, or family member has active TB. You live in or have traveled to an area where TB is common, like Russia, Africa, Eastern Europe, Asia, Latin America, and the Caribbean. You’re part of a group in which TB is more likely to spread, or you work or live with someone who is. This includes homeless people, people who have HIV, people in jail or prison, and people who inject drugs into their veins. You work or live in a hospital or nursing home. You’re a health care worker for patients at high risk of TB. You’re a smoker. Tuberculosis Tests and Diagnosis There are two common tests for tuberculosis: Skin test. This is also known as the Mantoux tuberculin skin test. A technician injects a small amount of fluid into the skin of your lower arm. After 2 or 3 days, they’ll check for swelling in your arm. If your results are positive, you probably have TB bacteria. But you could also get a false positive. If you’ve gotten a tuberculosis vaccine called bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), the test could say that you have TB when you really don’t. The results can also be false negative, saying that you don’t have TB when you really do, if you have a very new infection. You might get this test more than once. Blood test. These tests, also called interferon-gamma release assays (IGRAs), measure the response when TB proteins are mixed with a small amount of your blood. Tuberculosis Treatment Your treatment will depend on your infection. If you have latent TB, your doctor will give you medication to kill the bacteria so the infection doesn’t become active. You might get isoniazid, rifapentine, or rifampin, either alone or combined. You’ll have to take the drugs for up to 9 months. If you see any signs of active TB, call your doctor right away. A combination of medicines also treats active TB. The most common are ethambutol, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, and rifampin. You’ll take them for 6 to 12 months. If you have drug-resistant TB, your doctor might give you one or more different medicines. You may have to take them for much longer, up to 30 months, and they can cause more side effects.

    ayushi pareek(jv-u/19/3202) BPT 3rd semester #jvwu #jvmission #CDA What Is Leukemia? Leukemia is a blood cancer caused by a rise in the number of white blood cells in your body. Those white blood cells crowd out the red blood cells and platelets that your body needs to be healthy. The extra white blood cells don’t work right. Leukemia Symptoms Different types of leukemia can cause different problems. You might not notice any signs in the early stages of some forms. When you do have symptoms, they may include: Weakness or fatigue Bruising or bleeding easily Fever or chills Infections that are severe or keep coming back Pain in your bones or joints Headaches Vomiting Seizures Weight loss Night sweats Shortness of breath Swollen lymph nodes or organs like your spleen How does leukemia happen? Blood has three types of cells: white blood cells that fight infection, red blood cells that carry oxygen, and platelets that help blood clot. Every day, your bone marrow makes billions of new blood cells, and most of them are red cells. When you have leukemia, your body makes more white cells than it needs. These leukemia cells can’t fight infection the way normal white blood cells do. And because there are so many of them, they start to affect the way your organs work. Over time, you may not have enough red blood cells to supply oxygen, enough platelets to clot your blood, or enough normal white blood cells to fight infection. Leukemia classifications Leukemia is grouped by how fast it develops and gets worse, and by which type of blood cell is involved. The first group, how fast it develops, is divided into acute and chronic leukemia. Acute leukemia happens when most of the abnormal blood cells don’t mature and can’t carry out normal functions. It can get bad very fast. Chronic leukemia happens when there are some immature cells, but others are normal and can work the way they should. It gets bad more slowly than acute forms do. Leukemia Diagnosis Your doctor will need to check for signs of leukemia in your blood or bone marrow. They might do tests including: Blood tests. A complete blood count (CBC) looks at the number and maturity of different types of blood cells. A blood smear looks for unusual or immature cells. Bone marrow biopsy. This test involves marrow taken from your pelvic bone with a long needle. It can tell your doctor what kind of leukemia you have and how severe it is. Spinal tap. This involves fluid from your spinal cord. It can tell your doctor whether the leukemia has spread. Imaging tests. Things like CT, MRI, and PET scans can spot signs of leukemia. Leukemia Treatments The treatment you get depends on the type of leukemia you have, how far it’s spread, and how healthy you are. The main options are: Chemotherapy Radiation Biologic therapy Targeted therapy Stem cell transplant Surgery

Primary • Primary HIV prevention refers to activity focused on preventing uninfected people becoming infected. Secondary • Secondary HIV prevention aimed at enabling people with HIV to stay well (e.g. testing to allow people to know their status; welfare rights advice; lifestyle behaviour ; anti–discriminatory lobbying). Tertiary • Tertiary HIV prevention aims to minimise the effects of ill–health experienced by someone who is symptomatic with HIV disease (e.g. the prophylactic use of drugs and complementary therapies ) 34 32. Diagnosis of HIV • HIV antibody test – using different antigen &/ or with different principle of the test • Viral antigen test - used for screening blood donors in USA • Detection of viral nucleic acid in blood. • Determining the CD4 counts to assess the disease progression. 33.

There are two types Dynamic posture is how you hold yourself when you are moving, like when you are walking, running, or bending over to pick up something. It is usually required to form an efficient basis for movement. Muscles and non-contractile structures have to work to adapt to changing circumstances Static posture is how you hold yourself when you are not moving, like when you are sitting, standing, or sleeping. Body segments are aligned and maintained in fixed positions. This is usually achieved by co-ordination and interaction of various muscle groups which are working statically to counteract gravity and other forces.# Posture Assessment In an ideal posture, the line of gravity should pass through specific points of the body. This can simply be observed or evaluated using a plumb line to assess the midline of the body.This line should pass through the lobe of the ear, the shoulder joint, the hip joint, though the greater trochanter of the femur, then slightly anterior to the midline of the knee joint and lastly anterior to the lateral malleolus.When viewed from either the front or the back, the vertical line passing through the bodys centre of gravity should theoretically bisect the body into two equal halves, with the bodyweight distributed evenly between the two feet.# Examples of Types of Standing Posture Lordotic posture- Lordosis refers to the normal inward curvature of the spine. When this curve is exaggerated it is usually referred to as hyperlordosis. The pelvis is usually tilted anteriorly.Sway Back Posture- In this type of posture, there is forward head, hyper-extension of the cervical spine, flexion of the thoracic spine, lumbar spine extension, posterior tilt of the pelvis, hip and knee hyper-extension and ankle slightly plantar,Forward head posture - Describes the shift of the head forward with the chin poking out. It is caused by increased flexion of the lower cervical spine and upper thoracic spine with increased extension of the upper cervical spine and extension of the occiput on C1. Kyphosis - An increased convex curve observed in the thoracic or sacral regions of the spine.# THANK YOU

    SWETA SINGH Sweta singh (jv-i/19/3208) BPT 3rd semester #jvwu #jvmission #CDA. topic -Tuberculosis Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious infection that usually attacks your lungs. It can also spread to other parts of your body, like your brain and spine. A type of bacteria called Mycobacterium tuberculosis causes it. Can tuberculosis be cured? In the 20th century, TB was a leading cause of death in the United States. Today, most cases are cured with antibiotics. But it takes a long time. You have to take medications for at least 6 to 9 months. Tuberculosis Types A TB infection doesn’t always mean you’ll get sick. There are two forms of the disease: Latent TB. You have the germs in your body, but your immune system keeps them from spreading. You don’t have any symptoms, and you’re not contagious. But the infection is still alive and can one day become active. If you’re at high risk for re-activation -- for instance, if you have HIV, you had an infection in the past 2 years, your chest X-ray is unusual, or your immune system is weakened -- your doctor will give you medications to prevent active TB. Active TB. The germs multiply and make you sick. You can spread the disease to others. Ninety percent of active cases in adults come from a latent TB infection. A latent or active TB infection can also be drug-resistant, meaning certain medications don’t work against the bacteria. Tuberculosis Signs and Symptoms Latent TB doesn’t have symptoms. A skin or blood test can tell if you have it. Signs of active TB disease include: A cough that lasts more than 3 weeks Chest pain Coughing up blood Feeling tired all the time Night sweats Chills Fever Loss of appetite Weight loss Tuberculosis Risk Factors You could be more likely to get TB if: A friend, co-worker, or family member has active TB. You live in or have traveled to an area where TB is common, like Russia, Africa, Eastern Europe, Asia, Latin America, and the Caribbean. You’re part of a group in which TB is more likely to spread, or you work or live with someone who is. This includes homeless people, people who have HIV, people in jail or prison, and people who inject drugs into their veins. You work or live in a hospital or nursing home. You’re a health care worker for patients at high risk of TB. You’re a smoker. Tuberculosis Tests and Diagnosis There are two common tests for tuberculosis: Skin test. This is also known as the Mantoux tuberculin skin test. A technician injects a small amount of fluid into the skin of your lower arm. After 2 or 3 days, they’ll check for swelling in your arm. If your results are positive, you probably have TB bacteria. But you could also get a false positive. If you’ve gotten a tuberculosis vaccine called bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), the test could say that you have TB when you really don’t. The results can also be false negative, saying that you don’t have TB when you really do, if you have a very new infection. You might get this test more than once. Blood test. These tests, also called interferon-gamma release assays (IGRAs), measure the response when TB proteins are mixed with a small amount of your blood. Tuberculosis Treatment Your treatment will depend on your infection. If you have latent TB, your doctor will give you medication to kill the bacteria so the infection doesn’t become active. You might get isoniazid, rifapentine, or rifampin, either alone or combined. You’ll have to take the drugs for up to 9 months. If you see any signs of active TB, call your doctor right away. A combination of medicines also treats active TB. The most common are ethambutol, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, and rifampin. You’ll take them for 6 to 12 months. If you have drug-resistant TB, your doctor might give you one or more different medicines. You may have to take them for much longer, up to 30 months, and they can cause more side effects.

    i am prachi sharma from bpt 3rd sem, jv-u/19/3201#jvwu#cda HIV is a virus that damages the immune system. Untreated HIV affects and kills CD4 cells, which are a type of immune cell called T cell. Over time, as HIV kills more CD4 cells, the body is more likely to get various types of conditions and cancers. HIV is transmitted through bodily fluids that include: blood semen vaginal and rectal fluids breast milk The virus isn’t transferred in air or water, or through casual contact. Because HIV inserts itself into the DNA of cells, it’s a lifelong condition and currently there’s no drug that eliminates HIV from the body, although many scientists are working to find one. However, with medical care, including treatment called antiretroviral therapy, it’s possible to manage HIV and live with the virus for many years. Without treatment, a person with HIV is likely to develop a serious condition called the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, known as AIDS. At that point, the immune system is too weak to successfully respond against other diseases, infections, and conditions. Untreated, life expectancy with end stage AIDS is about 3 yearsTrusted Source. With antiretroviral therapy, HIV can be well-managed, and life expectancy can be nearly the same as someone who has not contracted HIV. It’s estimated that 1.2 million Americans are currently living with HIV. Of those people, 1 in 7 don’t know they have the virus. HIV can cause changes throughout the body. Learn about the effects of HIV on the different systems in the body. What is AIDS? AIDS is a disease that can develop in people with HIV. It’s the most advanced stage of HIV. But just because a person has HIV doesn’t mean AIDS will develop. HIV kills CD4 cells. Healthy adults generally have a CD4 count of 500 to 1,600 per cubic millimeter. A person with HIV whose CD4 count falls below 200 per cubic millimeter will be diagnosed with AIDS. A person can also be diagnosed with AIDS if they have HIV and develop an opportunistic infection or cancer that’s rare in people who don’t have HIV. An opportunistic infection such as Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia is one that only occurs in a severely immunocompromised person, such as someone with advanced HIV infection (AIDS). Untreated, HIV can progress to AIDS within a decade. There’s currently no cure for AIDS, and without treatment, life expectancy after diagnosis is about 3 yearsTrusted Source. This may be shorter if the person develops a severe opportunistic illness. However, treatment with antiretroviral drugs can prevent AIDS from developing. If AIDS does develop, it means that the immune system is severely compromised, that is, weakened to the point where it can no longer successfully respond against most diseases and infections. That makes the person living with AIDS vulnerable to a wide range of illnesses, including: pneumonia tuberculosis oral thrush, a fungal condition in the mouth or throat cytomegalovirus (CMV), a type of herpes virus cryptococcal meningitis, a fungal condition in the brain toxoplasmosis, a brain condition caused by a parasite cryptosporidiosis, a condition caused by an intestinal parasite cancer, including Kaposi sarcoma (KS) and lymphoma The shortened life expectancy linked with untreated AIDS isn’t a direct result of the syndrome itself. Rather, it’s a result of the diseases and complications that arise from having an immune system weakened by AIDS. Learn more about possible complications that can arise from HIV and AIDS. HIV and AIDS: What’s the connection? To develop AIDS, a person has to have contracted HIV. But having HIV doesn’t necessarily mean that someone will develop AIDS. Cases of HIV progress through three stages: stage 1: acute stage, the first few weeks after transmission stage 2: clinical latency, or chronic stage stage 3: AIDS As HIV lowers the CD4 cell count, the immune system weakens. A typical adult’s CD4 count is 500 to 1,500 per cubic millimeter. A person with a count below 200 is considered to have AIDS. How quickly a case of HIV progresses through the chronic stage varies significantly from person to person. Without treatment, it can last up to a decade before advancing to AIDS. With treatment, it can last indefinitely. There’s currently no cure for HIV, but it can be managed. People with HIV often have a near-normal lifespan with early treatment with antiretroviral therapy. Along those same lines, there’s technically no cure for AIDS currently. However, treatment can increase a person’s CD4 count to the point where they’re considered to no longer have AIDS. (This point is a count of 200 or higher.) Also, treatment can typically help manage opportunistic infections. HIV and AIDS are related, but they’re not the same thing. Learn more about the difference between HIV and AIDS. powered by Rubicon Project HIV transmission: Know the facts Anyone can contract HIV. The virus is transmitted in bodily fluids that include: blood semen vaginal and rectal fluids breast milk Some of the ways HIV is transferred from person to person include: through vaginal or anal sex — the most common route of transmission by sharing needles, syringes, and other items for injection drug use by sharing tattoo equipment without sterilizing it between uses during pregnancy, labor, or delivery from a pregnant person to their baby during breastfeeding through “premastication,” or chewing a baby’s food before feeding it to them through exposure to the blood, semen, vaginal and rectal fluids, and breast milk of someone living with HIV, such as through a needle stick The virus can also be transmitted through a blood transfusion or organ and tissue transplant. However, rigorous testing for HIV among blood, organ, and tissue donors ensures that this is very rare in the United States. It’s theoretically possible, but considered extremely rare, for HIV to be transmitted through: oral sex (only if there are bleeding gums or open sores in the person’s mouth) being bitten by a person with HIV (only if the saliva is bloody or there are open sores in the person’s mouth) contact between broken skin, wounds, or mucous membranes and the blood of someone living with HIV HIV does NOT transfer through: skin-to-skin contact hugging, shaking hands, or kissing air or water sharing food or drinks, including drinking fountains saliva, tears, or sweat (unless mixed with the blood of a person with HIV) sharing a toilet, towels, or bedding mosquitoes or other insects It’s important to note that if a person living with HIV is being treated and has a persistently undetectable viral load, it’s virtually impossible to transmit the virus to another person. Learn more about HIV transmission. Causes of HIV HIV is a variation of a virus that can be transmitted to African chimpanzees. Scientists suspect the simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) jumped from chimps to humans when people consumed chimpanzee meat containing the virus. Once inside the human population, the virus mutated into what we now know as HIV. This likely occurred as long ago as the 1920s. HIV spread from person to person throughout Africa over the course of several decades. Eventually, the virus migrated to other parts of the world. Scientists first discovered HIV in a human blood sample in 1959. It’s thought that HIV has existed in the United States since the 1970s, but it didn’t start to hit public consciousness until the 1980s. Learn more about the history of HIV and AIDS in the United States. Causes of AIDS AIDS is caused by HIV. A person can’t get AIDS if they haven’t contracted HIV. Healthy individuals have a CD4 count of 500 to 1,500 per cubic millimeter. Without treatment, HIV continues to multiply and destroy CD4 cells. If a person’s CD4 count falls below 200, they have AIDS. Also, if someone with HIV develops an opportunistic infection associated with HIV, they can still be diagnosed with AIDS, even if their CD4 count is above 200. What tests are used to diagnose HIV? Several different tests can be used to diagnose HIV. Healthcare providers determine which test is best for each person. Antibody/antigen tests Antibody/antigen tests are the most commonly used tests. They can show positive results typically within 18–45 daysTrusted Source after someone initially contracts HIV. These tests check the blood for antibodies and antigens. An antibody is a type of protein the body makes to respond to an infection. An antigen, on the other hand, is the part of the virus that activates the immune system. Antibody tests These tests check the blood solely for antibodies. Between 23 and 90 daysTrusted Source after transmission, most people will develop detectable HIV antibodies, which can be found in the blood or saliva. These tests are done using blood tests or mouth swabs, and there’s no preparation necessary. Some tests provide results in 30 minutes or less and can be performed in a healthcare provider’s office or clinic. Other antibody tests can be done at home: OraQuick HIV Test. An oral swab provides results in as little as 20 minutes. Home Access HIV-1 Test System. After the person pricks their finger, they send a blood sample to a licensed laboratory. They can remain anonymous and call for results the next business day. If someone suspects they’ve been exposed to HIV but tested negative in a home test, they should repeat the test in 3 months. If they have a positive result, they should follow up with their healthcare provider to confirm. Nucleic acid test (NAT) This expensive test isn’t used for general screening. It’s for people who have early symptoms of HIV or have a known risk factor. This test doesn’t look for antibodies; it looks for the virus itself. It takes from 5 to 21 days for HIV to be detectable in the blood. This test is usually accompanied or confirmed by an antibody test. Today, it’s easier than ever to get tested for HIV. Learn more about HIV home testing options. What’s the HIV window period? As soon as someone contracts HIV, it starts to reproduce in their body. The person’s immune system reacts to the antigens (parts of the virus) by producing antibodies (cells that take countermeasures against the virus). The time between exposure to HIV and when it becomes detectable in the blood is called the HIV window period. Most people develop detectable HIV antibodies within 23 to 90 days after transmission. If a person takes an HIV test during the window period, it’s likely they’ll receive a negative result. However, they can still transmit the virus to others during this time. If someone thinks they may have been exposed to HIV but tested negative during this time, they should repeat the test in a few months to confirm (the timing depends on the test used). And during that time, they need to use condoms or other barrier methods to prevent possibly spreading HIV. Someone who tests negative during the window might benefit from post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). This is medication taken after an exposure to prevent getting HIV. PEP needs to be taken as soon as possible after the exposure; it should be taken no later than 72 hours after exposure but ideally before then. Another way to prevent getting HIV is pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). A combination of HIV drugs taken before potential exposure to HIV, PrEP can lower the risk of contracting or transmitting HIV when taken consistently. Timing is important when testing for HIV. Learn more about how timing affects HIV test results. Early symptoms of HIV The first few weeks after someone contracts HIV is called the acute infection stage. During this time, the virus reproduces rapidly. The person’s immune system responds by producing HIV antibodies, which are proteins that take measures to respond against infection. During this stage, some people have no symptoms at first. However, many people experience symptoms in the first month or so after contracting the virus, but they often don’t realize HIV causes those symptoms. This is because symptoms of the acute stage can be very similar to those of the flu or other seasonal viruses, such as: they may be mild to severe they may come and go they may last anywhere from a few days to several weeks Early symptoms of HIV can include: fever chills swollen lymph nodes general aches and pains skin rash sore throat headache nausea upset stomach Because these symptoms are similar to common illnesses like the flu, the person who has them might not think they need to see a healthcare provider. And even if they do, their healthcare provider might suspect the flu or mononucleosis and might not even consider HIV. Whether a person has symptoms or not, during this period their viral load is very high. The viral load is the amount of HIV found in the bloodstream. A high viral load means that HIV can be easily transmitted to someone else during this time. Initial HIV symptoms usually resolve within a few months as the person enters the chronic, or clinical latency, stage of HIV. This stage can last many years or even decades with treatment. HIV symptoms can vary from person to person. Learn more about the early symptoms of HIV. HEALTHLINE EVENT Will you get vaccinated? We ask Lesley Stahl, Alyssa Milano, Brian Stokes Mitchell, and more in our Live Town Hall: COVID-19 One Year Retrospective on Thursday, March 11. What are the symptoms of HIV? After the first month or so, HIV enters the clinical latency stage. This stage can last from a few years to a few decades. Some people don’t have any symptoms during this time, while others may have minimal or nonspecific symptoms. A nonspecific symptom is a symptom that doesn’t pertain to one specific disease or condition. These nonspecific symptoms may include: headaches and other aches and pains swollen lymph nodes recurrent fevers night sweats fatigue nausea vomiting diarrhea weight loss skin rashes recurrent oral or vaginal yeast infections pneumonia shingles As with the early stage, HIV is still transferable during this time even without symptoms and can be transmitted to another person. However, a person won’t know they have HIV unless they get tested. If someone has these symptoms and thinks they may have been exposed to HIV, it’s important that they get tested. HIV symptoms at this stage may come and go, or they may progress rapidly. This progression can be slowed substantially with treatment. With the consistent use of this antiretroviral therapy, chronic HIV can last for decades and will likely not develop into AIDS, if treatment was started early enough. Learn more about how HIV symptoms can progress over time. Is rash a symptom of HIV? Many people with HIV experience changes to their skin. Rash is often one of the first symptoms of an HIV infection. Generally, an HIV rash appears as multiple small red lesions that are flat and raised. Rash related to HIV HIV makes someone more susceptible to skin problems because the virus destroys immune system cells that take measures against infection. Co-infections that can cause rash include: molluscum contagiosum herpes simplex shingles The cause of the rash determines: how it looks how long it lasts how it can be treated depends on the cause Rash related to medication While rash can be caused by HIV co-infections, it can also be caused by medication. Some drugs used to treat HIV or other conditions can cause a rash. This type of rash usually appears within a week or 2 weeks of starting a new medication. Sometimes the rash will clear up on its own. If it doesn’t, a change in medications may be needed. Rash due to an allergic reaction to medication can be serious. Other symptoms of an allergic reaction include: trouble breathing or swallowing dizziness fever Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) is a rare allergic reaction to HIV medication. Symptoms include fever and swelling of the face and tongue. A blistering rash, which can involve the skin and mucous membranes, appears and spreads quickly. When 30 percentTrusted Source of the skin is affected, it’s called toxic epidermal necrolysis, which is a life threatening condition. If this develops, emergency medical care is needed. While rash can be linked with HIV or HIV medications, it’s important to keep in mind that rashes are common and can have many other causes. Learn more about HIV rash. HIV symptoms in men: Is there a difference? Symptoms of HIV vary from person to person, but they’re similar in men and women. These symptoms can come and go or get progressively worse. If a person has been exposed to HIV, they may also have been exposed to other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). These include: gonorrhea chlamydia syphilis trichomoniasis Men, and those with a penis, may be more likely than women to notice symptoms of STIs such as sores on their genitals. However, men typically don’t seek medical care as often as women. Learn more about HIV symptoms in men. HIV symptoms in women: Is there a difference? For the most part, symptoms of HIV are similar in men and women. However, symptoms they experience overall may differ based on the different risks men and women face if they have HIV. Both men and women with HIV are at increased risk for STIs. However, women, and those with a vagina, may be less likely than men to notice small spots or other changes to their genitals. In addition, women with HIV are at increased risk for: recurrent vaginal yeast infections other vaginal infections, including bacterial vaginosis pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) menstrual cycle changes human papillomavirus (HPV), which can cause genital warts and lead to cervical cancer While not related to HIV symptoms, another risk for women with HIV is that the virus can be transmitted to a baby during pregnancy. However, antiretroviral therapy is considered safe during pregnancy. Women who are treated with antiretroviral therapy are at very low risk for transmitting HIV to their baby during pregnancy and delivery. Breastfeeding is also affected in women with HIV. The virus can be transferred to a baby through breast milk. In the United States and other settings where formula is accessible and safe, it’s recommended that women with HIV not breastfeed their babies. For these women, use of formula is encouraged. Options besides formula include pasteurized banked human milk. For women who may have been exposed to HIV, it’s important to know what symptoms to look for. Learn more about HIV symptoms in women. What are the symptoms of AIDS? AIDS refers to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. With this condition, the immune system is weakened due to HIV that’s typically gone untreated for many years. If HIV is found and treated early with antiretroviral therapy, a person will usually not develop AIDS. People with HIV may develop AIDS if their HIV is not diagnosed until late or if they know they have HIV but don’t consistently take their antiretroviral therapy. They may also develop AIDS if they have a type of HIV that’s resistant to (doesn’t respond to) the antiretroviral treatment. Without proper and consistent treatment, people living with HIV can develop AIDS sooner. By that time, the immune system is quite damaged and has a harder time generating a response to infection and disease. With the use of antiretroviral therapy, a person can maintain a chronic HIV diagnosis without developing AIDS for decades. Symptoms of AIDS can include: recurrent fever chronic swollen lymph glands, especially of the armpits, neck, and groin chronic fatigue night sweats dark splotches under the skin or inside the mouth, nose, or eyelids sores, spots, or lesions of the mouth and tongue, genitals, or anus bumps, lesions, or rashes of the skin recurrent or chronic diarrhea rapid weight loss neurologic problems such as trouble concentrating, memory loss, and confusion anxiety and depression Antiretroviral therapy controls the virus and usually prevents progression to AIDS. Other infections and complications of AIDS can also be treated. That treatment must be tailored to the individual needs of the person. Treatment options for HIV Treatment should begin as soon as possible after a diagnosis of HIV, regardless of viral load. The main treatment for HIV is antiretroviral therapy, a combination of daily medications that stop the virus from reproducing. This helps protect CD4 cells, keeping the immune system strong enough to take measures against disease. Antiretroviral therapy helps keep HIV from progressing to AIDS. It also helps reduce the risk of transmitting HIV to others. When treatment is effective, the viral load will be “undetectable.” The person still has HIV, but the virus is not visible in test results. However, the virus is still in the body. And if that person stops taking antiretroviral therapy, the viral load will increase again, and the HIV can again start attacking CD4 cells. Learn more about how HIV treatments work. HIV medications Many antiretroviral therapy medications are approved to treat HIV. They work to prevent HIV from reproducing and destroying CD4 cells, which help the immune system generate a response to infection. This helps reduce the risk of developing complications related to HIV, as well as transmitting the virus to others. These antiretroviral medications are grouped into six classes: nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) protease inhibitors fusion inhibitors CCR5 antagonists, also known as entry inhibitors integrase strand transfer inhibitors Treatment regimens The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) generally recommends a starting regimen of three HIV medications from at least two of these drug classes. This combination helps prevent HIV from forming resistance to medications. (Resistance means the drug no longer works to treat the virus.) Many of the antiretroviral medications are combined with others so that a person with HIV typically takes only one or two pills a day. A healthcare provider will help a person with HIV choose a regimen based on their overall health and personal circumstances. These medications must be taken every day, exactly as prescribed. If they’re not taken appropriately, viral resistance can develop, and a new regimen may be needed. Blood testing will help determine if the regimen is working to keep the viral load down and the CD4 count up. If an antiretroviral therapy regimen isn’t working, the person’s healthcare provider will switch them to a different regimen that’s more effective. Side effects and costs Side effects of antiretroviral therapy vary and may include nausea, headache, and dizziness. These symptoms are often temporary and disappear with time. Serious side effects can include swelling of the mouth and tongue and liver or kidney damage. If side effects are severe, the medications can be adjusted. Costs for antiretroviral therapy vary according to geographic location and type of insurance coverage. Some pharmaceutical companies have assistance programs to help lower the cost. Learn more about the drugs used to treat HIV. HIV prevention Although many researchers are working to develop one, there’s currently no vaccine available to prevent the transmission of HIV. However, taking certain steps can help prevent the transmission of HIV. Safer sex The most common way for HIV to be transferred is through anal or vaginal sex without a condom or other barrier method. This risk can’t be completely eliminated unless sex is avoided entirely, but the risk can be lowered considerably by taking a few precautions. A person concerned about their risk for HIV should: Get tested for HIV. It’s important they learn their status and that of their partner. Get tested for other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). If they test positive for one, they should get it treated, because having an STI increases the risk of contracting HIV. Use condoms. They should learn the correct way to use condoms and use them every time they have sex, whether it’s through vaginal or anal intercourse. It’s important to keep in mind that pre-seminal fluids (which come out before male ejaculation) can contain HIV. Take their medications as directed if they have HIV. This lowers the risk of transmitting the virus to their sexual partner. Shop for condoms online. Other prevention methods Other steps to help prevent the spread of HIV include: Avoid sharing needles or other paraphernalia. HIV is transmitted through blood and can be contracted by using materials that have come in contact with the blood of someone who has HIV. Consider PEP. A person who has been exposed to HIV should contact their healthcare provider about obtaining post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). PEP can reduce the risk of contracting HIV. It consists of three antiretroviral medications given for 28 days. PEP should be started as soon as possible after exposure but before 36 to 72 hours have passed. Consider PrEP. A person has a higher chance of contracting HIV should talk to their healthcare provider about pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). If taken consistently, it can lower the risk of acquiring HIV. PrEP is a combination of two drugs available in pill form. Healthcare providers can offer more information on these and other ways to prevent the spread of HIV. Check here for more information on STI prevention. Living with HIV: What to expect and tips for coping More than 1.2 million people in the United States are living with HIV. It’s different for everybody, but with treatment, many can expect to live a long, productive life. The most important thing is to start antiretroviral treatment as soon as possible. By taking medications exactly as prescribed, people living with HIV can keep their viral load low and their immune system strong. It’s also important to follow up with a healthcare provider regularly. Other ways people living with HIV can improve their health include: Make their health their top priority. Steps to help people living with HIV feel their best include: fueling their body with a well-balanced diet exercising regularly getting plenty of rest avoiding tobacco and other drugs reporting any new symptoms to their healthcare provider right away Focus on their mental health. They could consider seeing a licensed therapist who is experienced in treating people with HIV. Use safer sex practices. Talk to their sexual partner(s). Get tested for other STIs. And use condoms and other barrier methods every time they have vaginal or anal sex. Talk to their healthcare provider about PrEP and PEP. When used consistently by a person without HIV, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) can lower the chances of transmission. PrEP is most often recommended for people without HIV in relationships with people with HIV, but it can be used in other situations as well. Online sources for finding a PrEP provider include PrEP Locator and PleasePrEPMe. Surround themselves with loved ones. When first telling people about their diagnosis, they can start slow by telling someone who can maintain their confidence. They may want to choose someone who won’t judge them and who will support them in caring for their health. Get support. They can join an HIV support group, either in person or online, so they can meet with others who face the same concerns they have. Their healthcare provider can also steer them toward a variety of resources in their area. There are many ways to get the most out of life when living with HIV. Hear some real stories of people living with HIV. HIV life expectancy: Know the facts In the 1990s, a 20-year-old person with HIV had a 19-year life expectancyTrusted Source. By 2011, a 20-year-old person with HIV could expect to live another 53 years. It’s a dramatic improvement, due in large part to antiretroviral therapy. With proper treatment, many people with HIV can expect a normal or near- normal lifespan. Of course, many things affect life expectancy for a person with HIV. Among them are: CD4 cell count viral load serious HIV-related illnesses, including hepatitis misusing drugs smoking access, adherence, and response to treatment other health conditions age Where a person lives also matters. People in the United States and other developed countries may be more likely to have access to antiretroviral therapy. Consistent use of these drugs helps prevent HIV from progressing to AIDS. When HIV advances to AIDS, life expectancy without treatment is about 3 yearsTrusted Source. In 2017, about 20.9 million peopleTrusted Source living with HIV were using antiretroviral therapy. Life expectancy statistics are just general guidelines. People living with HIV should talk to their healthcare provider to learn more about what they can expect. Learn more about life expectancy and long-term outlook with HIV. Is there a vaccine for HIV? Currently, there are no vaccines to prevent or treat HIV. Research and testing on experimental vaccines are ongoing, but none are close to being approved for general use. HIV is a complicated virus. It mutates (changes) rapidly and is often able to fend off immune system responses. Only a small number of people who have HIV develop broadly neutralizing antibodies, the kind of antibodies that can respond to a range of HIV strains. The first HIV vaccine efficacy study in 7 years was underway in South Africa in 2016. The experimental vaccine is an updated version of one used in a 2009 trial that took place in Thailand. A 3.5-year follow-up after vaccination showed the vaccine was 31.2 percent effective in preventing HIV transmission. The study involves 5,400 men and women from South Africa. In 2016 in South Africa, about 270,000 peopleTrusted Source contracted HIV. The results of the study are expected in 2021. Other late-stage, multinational vaccine clinical trials are also currently underway. Other research into an HIV vaccine is also ongoing. While there’s still no vaccine to prevent HIV, people with HIV can benefit from other vaccines to prevent HIV-related illnesses. Here are the CDC recommendations: pneumonia: recommendedTrusted Source for all children younger than 2 and all adults 65 and older influenza: recommendedTrusted Source for all people over 6 months old annually with rare exceptions hepatitis A and B: ask your doctor if you should get vaccinated for hepatitis A and B, especially if you are in a higher risk groupTrusted Source meningitis: the meningococcal conjugate vaccination is recommendedTrusted Source for all preteens and teens at 11 to 12 years old with a booster dose at 16, or anyone at risk. The serogroup B meningococcal vaccination is recommended for anyone 10 years or older with increased risk. shingles: recommendedTrusted Source for those ages 50 or older Learn why an HIV vaccine is so difficult to develop. HIV statistics Here are today’s HIV numbers: In 2019, about 38 million people worldwide were living with HIV. Of those, 1.8 million were children below the age 15 years. At the end of 2019, 25.4 million people living with HIV were using antiretroviral therapy. Since the pandemic began, 75.7 million people have contracted HIV, and AIDS-related complications have claimed 32.7 million lives. In 2019, 690,000 people died from AIDS-related diseases. This is a decline from 1.9 million in 2005. Eastern and Southern Africa are the hardest hit. In 2019, 20.7 million people in these areas were living with HIV, and 730,000 more contracted the virus. The region has more than half of all people living with HIV worldwide. Adult and adolescent women accounted for 19 percent of new HIV diagnoses in the United States in 2018. Almost half of all new cases occur in African Americans. Left untreated, a woman with HIV has a 15–45 percentTrusted Source chance of passing HIV to her baby during pregnancy or breastfeeding. With antiretroviral therapy throughout pregnancy and avoidance of breastfeeding, the risk is less than 5 percentTrusted Source. In the 1990s, a 20-year-old person with HIV had a life expectancyTrusted Source of 19 years. By 2011, it had improved to 53 years. Today, life expectancy is near normalTrusted Source if antiretroviral therapy is started soon after contracting HIV. As access to antiretroviral therapy continues to improve around the world, these statistics will hopefully keep changing. Learn more statistics about HIV.

There are two types Dynamic posture is how you hold yourself when you are moving, like when you are walking, running, or bending over to pick up something. It is usually required to form an efficient basis for movement. Muscles and non-contractile structures have to work to adapt to changing circumstances Static posture is how you hold yourself when you are not moving, like when you are sitting, standing, or sleeping. Body segments are aligned and maintained in fixed positions. This is usually achieved by co-ordination and interaction of various muscle groups which are working statically to counteract gravity and other forces.# Posture Assessment In an ideal posture, the line of gravity should pass through specific points of the body. This can simply be observed or evaluated using a plumb line to assess the midline of the body.This line should pass through the lobe of the ear, the shoulder joint, the hip joint, though the greater trochanter of the femur, then slightly anterior to the midline of the knee joint and lastly anterior to the lateral malleolus.When viewed from either the front or the back, the vertical line passing through the bodys centre of gravity should theoretically bisect the body into two equal halves, with the bodyweight distributed evenly between the two feet.# Examples of Types of Standing Posture Lordotic posture- Lordosis refers to the normal inward curvature of the spine. When this curve is exaggerated it is usually referred to as hyperlordosis. The pelvis is usually tilted anteriorly.Sway Back Posture- In this type of posture, there is forward head, hyper-extension of the cervical spine, flexion of the thoracic spine, lumbar spine extension, posterior tilt of the pelvis, hip and knee hyper-extension and ankle slightly plantar,Forward head posture - Describes the shift of the head forward with the chin poking out. It is caused by increased flexion of the lower cervical spine and upper thoracic spine with increased extension of the upper cervical spine and extension of the occiput on C1. Kyphosis - An increased convex curve observed in the thoracic or sacral regions of the spine.# HANK YOU

Tuberculosis and HIV  Worldwide the number of people infected with both HIV and TB is rising.  The HIV virus damages the body’s immune system and accelerates the speed at which TB progresses from a harmless infection to a life threatening condition.  The estimated 10% activation of dormant TB infection over the life span of an infected person, is increased to 10% activation in one year, if HIV infection is superimposed.  It is the opputunistic infection that most frequently kills HIV-positive people. 38. Epidemiological Impact  Reactivation of latent infection- People who are infected with both HIV and TB are 25 to 30 times more likely to develop TB again than people only infected with TB.  Primary Infection- New tubercular infection in people with HIV can progress to active disease very quickly.  Recurring infection- in people who were cured of TB. 39. Diagnosis of TB in people with HIV  HIV positive people with pulmonary TB may have a higher frequency of having sputum negative smears.  The tuberculin test often fails to work, because the immune system has been damaged by HIV; It may not even show a response even though the person is infected with TB.  Chest Xray will show less cavitation.  Cases of Extra pulmonary TB are more common. 40.

It is an important part of your long-term health. Making sure that you hold your body the right way, whether you are moving or still, can prevent pain, injuries, and other health problems. What is posture? Posture is defined as the attitude assumed by the body either with support during the course of muscular activity, or as a result of the coordinated action performed by a group of muscles working to maintain the stability. There are two types 1Dynamic posture is how you hold yourself when you are moving, like when you are walking, running, or bending over to pick up something. It is usually required to form an efficient basis for movement. Muscles and non-contractile structures have to work to adapt to changing circumstances. 2Static posture is how you hold yourself when you are not moving, like when you are sitting, standing, or sleeping. Body segments are aligned and maintained in fixed positions. This is usually achieved by co-ordination and interaction of various muscle groups which are working statically to counteract gravity and other forces. Optimal posture.... It is important to make sure that you have good dynamic and static posture Posture Assessment The key to good posture is the position of the spine. The spine has three natural curves - at your neck, mid/upper back, and lower back. Correct posture should maintain these curves, but not increase them. Your head should be above your shoulders, and the top of your shoulder should be over the hips. In an ideal posture, the line of gravity should pass through specific points of the body. This can simply be observed or evaluated using a plumb line to assess the midline of the body. This line should pass through the lobe of the ear, the shoulder joint, the hip joint, though the greater trochanter of the femur, then slightly anterior to the midline of the knee joint and lastly anterior to the lateral malleolus. When viewed from either the front or the back, the vertical line passing through the bodys centre of gravity should theoretically bisect the body into two equal halves, with the bodyweight distributed evenly between the two feet. While assessing posture, symmetry and rotations/tilts should be observed in the anterior, lateral and posterior views. Assess: Head alignment Cervical, thoracic and lumbar curvature Shoulder level symmetry Pelvic symmetry Hip, knee and ankle joints In sitting: The ears should be aligned with the shoulders and the shoulders aligned with the hips The shoulders should be relaxed and elbows are close to the sides of the body The angle of the elbows, hips and knees is approximately 90 degrees The feet flat on the floor The forearms are parallel to the floor with wrists straight Feet should rest comfortably on a surface Posture and Health Poor posture can be bad for your health. Slouching or slumping over can Misalign your musculoskeletal system Increase pressure on the spine, making it more prone to injury and degeneration Cause neck, shoulder, and back pain Decrease flexibility Affect how well joints move Affect balance and increase risk of falling Make it harder to digest food Make it harder to breathe The Relationship Between Posture and Pain.... There are many theories that bad posture is a contributing factor in low back pain, some studies have shown that improved posture and postural control can have a positive effect on pain. Physiotherapy...... Education, teach client to: Be mindful of posture during everyday activities, like watching television, washing dishes, or walking Stay active. Any kind of exercise may help improve your posture, but certain types of exercises can be especially helpful. eg. yoga, tai chi, and other classes that focuses on body awareness. It is also a good idea to do exercises that strengthen your core. Maintain a healthy weight. Extra weight can weaken abdominal muscles, cause problems for pelvis and spine, and contribute to low back pain. Wear comfortable, low-heeled shoes. High heels, for example, can throw off balance and force person to walk differently. This puts more stress on muscles and harms posture. Make sure work surfaces are at a comfortable height for you, whether sitting in front of a computer, making dinner, or eating a meal Physiotherapist can identify posture style and provide hands-on treatment, posture correction exercises and helpful home products for you to achieve great posture. Some of objectives are listed below: Obtain Normal Joint Range of Motion. Necessary to allow you achieve good posture alignment. eg Thoracic Manual Therapy. Obtain Normal Muscle Length. If muscles too tight client will be unable to attain a normal posture. Obtain Good Muscle Strength. To be able to pull clients body into the correct posture. Obtain Excellent Muscle Endurance. Postural muscles need to able to work for hours on end. Poor endurance is a major factor in habitual poor posture. Normal Nerve Extensibility. Neural tissue needs enough length to allow for normal posture. Good Spatial Awareness. ie where you are in space. Provide with verbal and visual feedback and assist with postural taping. Perfect Posture Habits. The hardest part is the initial change, then reinforcing the correct habit. Muscle Action in Posture The balanced posture of the body reduces the work done by the muscles in maintaining it in an erect posture. It has been determined (using electromyography) that, in general The intrinsic muscles of the feet are quiescent, because of the support provided by the ligaments. Soleus is constantly active because gravity tends to pull the body forward over the feet. Gastrocnemius and the deep posterior tibial muscles are less frequently active. Tibialis anterior is less active (unless high heels are being worn). Quadriceps and the Hamstrings are generally not as active Iliopsoas is constantly active. Gluteus maximus is inactive. Gluteus medius and tensor fascia latae are active to counteract lateral postural sway. Erector Spinae is active, counteracting gravitys pull forwards. The abdominal muscles remain quiescent, although the lower fibres of the Internal obliques are active in order to protect the inguinal canal Examples of Types of Standing Posture Some of the examples of faulty posture can be as follows: Posture Types. Lordotic posture- Lordosis refers to the normal inward curvature of the spine. When this curve is exaggerated it is usually referred to as hyperlordosis. The pelvis is usually tilted anteriorly. Sway Back Posture- In this type of posture, there is forward head, hyper-extension of the cervical spine, flexion of the thoracic spine, lumbar spine extension, posterior tilt of the pelvis, hip and knee hyper-extension and ankle slightly plantarflexed. Flat back posture- In this type of posture, there is forward head, extension of the cervical spine, extension of the thoracic spine, loss of lumbar lordosis and posterior pelvic tilt. Forward head posture - Describes the shift of the head forward with the chin poking out. It is caused by increased flexion of the lower cervical spine and upper thoracic spine with increased extension of the upper cervical spine and extension of the occiput on C1. Scoliosis - A deviation of the normal vertical line of the spine, consisting of a lateral curvature and rotation of the vertebrae. Scoliosis is considered when there is at least 10° of spinal angulation on the posterior-anterior radiograph associated with vertebral rotation. This is a 3 dimensional C or S shaped sideways curve of the spine. Kyphosis - An increased convex curve observed in the thoracic or sacral regions of the spine. Final Remarks..... It is important to make sure clients have good dynamic and static posture. Just knowing how to correct posture is not enough to achieve a change actual habit. Bodies uses learnt motor patterns to perform everyday activities. When we sit, stand, walk or move - our body follows previously learnt motor patterns. If your body has learned to slouch - thats what it will do. Physiotherapists via correcting and improving posture through assessment and treatment techniques can lead to many positive health outcomes. for clients.

Soleus is constantly active because gravity tends to pull the body forward over the feet. Gastrocnemius and the deep posterior tibial muscles are less frequently active. Tibialis anterior is less active (unless high heels are being worn). Quadriceps and the Hamstrings are generally not as active Iliopsoas is constantly active. Gluteus maximus is inactive. Gluteus medius and tensor fascia latae are active to counteract lateral postural sway. Erector Spinae is active, counteracting gravitys pull forwards. The abdominal muscles remain quiescent, although the lower fibres of the Internal obliques are active in order to protect the inguinal canal Examples of Types of Standing Posture Some of the examples of faulty posture can be as follows: Posture Types. Lordotic posture- Lordosis refers to the normal inward curvature of the spine. When this curve is exaggerated it is usually referred to as hyperlordosis. The pelvis is usually tilted anteriorly. Sway Back Posture- In this type of posture, there is forward head, hyper-extension of the cervical spine, flexion of the thoracic spine, lumbar spine extension, posterior tilt of the pelvis, hip and knee hyper-extension and ankle slightly plantarflexed. Flat back posture- In this type of posture, there is forward head, extension of the cervical spine, extension of the thoracic spine, loss of lumbar lordosis and posterior pelvic tilt. Forward head posture - Describes the shift of the head forward with the chin poking out. It is caused by increased flexion of the lower cervical spine and upper thoracic spine with increased extension of the upper cervical spine and extension of the occiput on C1. Scoliosis - A deviation of the normal vertical line of the spine, consisting of a lateral curvature and rotation of the vertebrae. Scoliosis is considered when there is at least 10° of spinal angulation on the posterior-anterior radiograph associated with vertebral rotation. This is a 3 dimensional C or S shaped sideways curve of the spine. Kyphosis - An increased convex curve observed in the thoracic or sacral regions of the spine. Final Remarks..... It is important to make sure clients have good dynamic and static posture. Just knowing how to correct posture is not enough to achieve a change actual habit. Bodies uses learnt motor patterns to perform everyday activities. When we sit, stand, walk or move - our body follows previously learnt motor patterns. If your body has learned to slouch - thats what it will do. Physiotherapists via correcting and improving posture through assessment and treatment techniques can lead to many positive health outcomes. for clients.

Joint replacement surgery is a procedure that many people undergo to relieve chronic joint pain and improve joint mobility when other non-surgical treatments have proved unsuccessful. If you are dealing with persistent joint pain and a limited range of motion then joint replacement surgery may be worth considering to restore your overall quality of life and get you back to doing the things you enjoy, pain free. Causes of joint replacement- Severe joint pain Stiffness Limping Muscle weakness Limited range of motion Swelling Symptoms Signs and symptoms of an infected joint replacement include: Increased pain or stiffness in a previously well-functioning joint Swelling Warmth and redness around the wound Wound drainage Fevers, chills and night sweats Fatigue Treatment- Nonsurgical Treatment In some cases, just the skin and soft tissues around the joint are infected, and the infection has not spread deep into the artificial joint itself. This is called a "superficial infection." If the infection is caught early, your doctor may prescribe intravenous (IV) or oral antibiotics. This treatment has a good success rate for early superficial infections. Surgical Treatment Infections that go beyond the superficial tissues and gain deep access to the artificial joint almost always require surgical treatment. Debridement. Deep infections that are caught early (within several days of their onset), and those that occur within weeks of the original surgery, may sometimes be cured with a surgical washout of the joint. During this procedure, called debridement, the surgeon removes all contaminated soft tissues. The implant is thoroughly cleaned, and plastic liners or spacers are replaced. After the procedure, intravenous (IV) antibiotics will be prescribed for approximately 6 weeks. Staged surgery. In general, the longer the infection has been present, the harder it is to cure without removing the implant. Late infections (those that occur months to years after the joint replacement surgery) and those infections that have been present for longer periods of time almost always require a staged surgery. The first stage of this treatment includes: Removal of the implant Washout of the joint and soft tissues Placement of an antibiotic spacer Intravenous (IV) antibiotics An antibiotic spacer is a device placed into the joint to maintain normal joint space and alignment. It also provides patient comfort and mobility while the infection is being treated. Prevention- At the time of original joint replacement surgery, there are several measures taken to minimize the risk of infection. Some of the steps have been proven to lower the risk of infection, and some are thought to help but have not been scientifically proven. The most important known measures to lower the risk of infection after total joint replacement include: Antibiotics before and after surgery. Antibiotics are given within one hour of the start of surgery (usually once in the operating room) and continued at intervals for 24 hours following the procedure. Short operating time and minimal operating room traffic. Efficiency in the operation by your surgeon helps to lower the risk of infection by limiting the time the joint is exposed. Limiting the number of operating room personnel entering and leaving the room is thought to the decrease risk of infection. Use of strict sterile technique and sterilization instruments. Care is taken to ensure the operating site is sterile, the instruments have been autoclaved (sterilized) and not exposed to any contamination, and the implants are packaged to ensure their sterility. Preoperative nasal screening for bacterial colonization. There is some evidence that testing for the presence of bacteria (particularly the Staphylococcus species) in the nasal passages several weeks prior to surgery may help prevent joint infection. In institutions where this is performed, those patients that are found to have Staphylococcus in their nasal passages are given an intranasal antibacterial ointment prior to surgery. The type of bacteria that is found in the nasal passages may help your doctors determine which antibiotic you are given at the time of your surgery. Preoperative chlorhexidine wash. There is also evidence that home washing with a chlorhexidine solution (often in the form of soaked cloths) in the days leading up to surgery may help prevent infection. This may be particularly important if patients are known to have certain types of antibiotic-resistant bacteria on their skin or in their nasal passages (see above). Your surgeon will talk with you about this option. Long-term prophylaxis. Surgeons sometimes prescribe antibiotics for patients who have had joint replacements before they undergo dental work. This is done to protect the implants from bacteria that might enter the bloodstream during the dental procedure and cause infection. The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons has developed recommendations for when antibiotics should be given before dental work and for which patients would benefit. In general, most people do not require antibiotics before dental procedures. There is little evidence that taking antibiotics before dental procedures is effective at preventing infection. Antibiotics may also be considered before major surgical procedures; however, most patients do not require this.

TOPIC:- KNEE LIGAMENT INJURY Knee ligaments are the short bands of tough, flexible connective tissue that hold the knee together. Knee ligament injuries can be caused by trauma, such as a car accident. Or they can be caused by sports injuries. An example is a twisting knee injury in basketball or skiing. The knee has 4 major ligaments. Ligaments connect bones to each other. They give the joint stability and strength. The 4 knee ligaments connect the thighbone (femur) to the shin bone (tibia). They are: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). This ligament is in the center of the knee. It controls rotation and forward movement of the shin bone. Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). This ligament is in the back of the knee. It controls backward movement of the shin bone. Medial collateral ligament (MCL). This ligament gives stability to the inner knee. Lateral collateral ligament (LCL). This ligament gives stability to the outer knee. CAUSES:- Cruciate ligaments The ACL is one of the most common ligaments to be injured. The ACL is often stretched or torn during a sudden twisting motion. This is when the feet stay planted one way, but the knees turn the other way. Slowing down while running or landing from a jump incorrectly can cause ACL injuries. Skiing, basketball, and football are sports that have a higher risk for ACL injuries. The PCL is also a common ligament to become injured in the knee. But a PCL injury often occurs with a sudden, direct hit, such as in a car accident or during a football tackle. Collateral ligaments The MCL is injured more often than the LCL. Stretch and tear injuries to the collateral ligaments are often caused by a blow to the outer side of the knee. This can happen when playing hockey or football. SYMPTOMS:- Cruciate injury A cruciate ligament injury often causes pain. Often you may hear a popping sound when the injury happens. Then your leg buckles when you try to stand on it. The knee also swells. You also arent able to move your knee as you normally would. You may also feel pain along the joint and pain when walking. The symptoms of a cruciate ligament injury may seem like other health conditions. Always see your healthcare provider for a diagnosis. Collateral ligament injury An injury to the collateral ligament also causes the knee to pop and buckle. It also causes pain and swelling. Often you will have pain at the sides of the knee and swelling over the injury site. If it is an MCL injury, the pain is on the inside of the knee. An LCL injury may cause pain on the outside of the knee. The knee will also feel unstable, like it is going to give way. DIAGNOSTIC:- Your healthcare provider will ask about your health history and do a physical exam. You may also need 1 or both of these tests: X-ray. This imaging test can rule out an injury to bone instead of a ligament injury. It uses energy beams to make images of internal tissues, bones, and organs on film. MRI. This test uses large magnets, radio waves, and a computer to make detailed images of organs and structures in the body. It can often find damage or disease in bones and a surrounding ligament, tendon, or muscle. TREATMENT:- Treatment will depend on your symptoms, age, and general health. It will also depend on how severe the condition is. Treatment may include: Pain medicine such as ibuprofen Muscle-strengthening exercises Protective knee brace Ice pack to ease swelling Surgery.

    I am Jaya kumari from bpt3sem Enroll-JV-u/19/3629 #jvwu#university#cda What is physiotherapy?According to WCPT ( world confederation of physical therapists ), physical therapy is concerned with identifying and maximizing the quality of life and movement potential within the spheres of promotion, prevention, treatment, habilitation and rehabilitation. Physical therapy also known as physiotherapy is the health profession concerned with assessment, diagnosis and treatment of the disease and disability through physical means. It provides services to individuals to develop, maintain and restore the maximum movement. Physiotherapy helps in reducing pain, restore mobility and flexibility, increase range of motion of joints, strengthen the muscles and maintain the correct posture of the body. Physiotherapist assesses the patient’s completely. They listen to the problem of the patient patiently. They observe the patients first. They palpate the part. After this examination is done followed by the provisional diagnosis. After this, they plan the treatment. They also make a home exercise regime to strengthen the muscles. They teach the precautions to be followed so that the problem should not be flared up. Physiotherapist gives counselling to the patients. Physiotherapist teaches the transfer activities to bed ridden patients like spinal cord injury patients. They focus on muscle re education and control and rehabilitation of gross and fine motor skills in conditions like spinal cord injury cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, brain injury, and stroke. what is erbs paralysis? Erbs palsy or Erb–Duchenne palsy is a form of obstetric brachial plexus palsy. It occurs when theres an injury to the brachial plexus, specifically the upper brachial plexus at birth. The injury can either stretch, rupture or avulse the roots of the plexus from the spinal cord. It is the most common birth-related brachial plexus injury (50- 60%). It is a lesion of C5 & C6 nerve roots (in some cases C7 is involved as well) usually produced by widening of the head shoulder interval. Injuries to the brachial plexus affects movement and cutaneous sensations in the upper limb. Depending on the severity of the injury, the paralysis can either resolve on its own over a period of months, require rehabilitative therapy or surgery. Neurologically, the Erbs point is a site at the upper trunk of the Brachial Plexus located 2-3cm above the clavicle. Its formed by the union of the C5 and C6 roots which later converge. Affected nerves in Erbs palsy are the axillary nerve, musculocutaneous, & suprascapular nerve. mechanism of injury The most common cause of Erbs palsy is excessive lateral traction or stretching of the babys head and neck in opposite directions during delivery usually associated with shoulder dystocia. This may happen during delivery of the head, the head may be deviated away from the axial plane. There can also be compression of the brachial plexus causing it to stretch and tear. Sometimes, pulling on the infants shoulder during delivery or excessive pressure on the babys raised arm during a breech delivery can cause brachial plexus injury. Two potential forces act on the brachial plexus during labor- natural expulsive force of the uterus, traction force applied by the obstetrician. clinical observation The classical sign of erbs palsy is called Waiters tip deformity. This is due to loss of the lateral rotators of the shoulder, arm flexors, and hand extensor muscles. The position of the limb, under such conditions, is characterized by : the arm hanging by the side and is rotated medially, the forearm extended and pronated and the wrist flexed. Also,there is loss of sensation in the lateral aspect of the forearm. The arm cannot be raised from the side; all power of flexion of the elbow is lost, as is also supination of the forearm. Muscles most often paralyzed are supraspinatus and infraspinatus because the suprascapular nerve is fixed at the suprascapular notch (Erbs point). In more severely affected patients deltoid, biceps, brachialis, and subscapular is affected (C5 and C6). Elbow flexion is weakened because of weakness in biceps & brachialis. If roots are damaged above their junction, paralysis of rhomboids and serratus anterior is added, producing weakness in retraction and protraction of scapula. Diagnosis A thorough history and physical examination with focus on neurologic examination are used to confirm diagnosis. History- aims to gather information about pregnancy complicated either by gestational diabetes or maternal obesity, fetal macrosomia, prolonged second stage labour, shoulder dystocia, use of assitive techniques-forceps to aid delivery. Physical examination- most often shows decreased or absent movement of the affected arm. Neurologic examination- assesses muscle power, sensation,reflexes- moro reflex is absent on the affected arm. Treatment:- During the first 6 months treatment is directed specifically at prevention of fixed deformities. Exercise therapy should be administered daily to maintain ROM and improve muscle strength. Parents must be taught to take an active role in maintaining ROM and keeping the functioning muscles fit. Exercises should include bimanual or bilateral motor planning activities. Home exercises: Encourage parents to carry out specific exercises with their child 2-3 a day in the comfort of their own home - although the exercises can be carried out anywhere appropriate and comfortable. The Home Exercise Programme may focus on the following Maintain movement at the joints – Ensuring that the joints of the affected limb, especially the shoulder, keep their full range of movement and avoid excessive shortening of the muscles, also called a contracture. This will include passive, assisted and active exercises. Increasing the strength of muscles in the affected limb. Increasing the child’s awareness of the arm through tactile touch and contact. Teaching parents, carers and the child how to handle the affected limb and how to position it for both comforts, prevention of complications and practicality. The use of Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) and bimanual/bilateral therapy are sometimes also considered by Physiotherapists.
