A Code Red indicates the presence of a fire and sets in motion an evacuation plan including rescue from the fire area, alerting staff to call the fire department, confining the fire, and allowing extinguishment if possible. A Code Blue is called for a patient in cardiac arrest and assembles a team to provide immediate resuscitation efforts. A Code Pink is activated for a child abduction and establishes a search of the unit, telephone notification, obtaining pertinent information, and reporting to security while keeping staff and visitors on the unit until police arrive.
code is emergency work to be carried out .Code Blue means someone is experiencing a life-threatening medical emergency, typically an adult. It often means cardiac arrest or respiratory failure. All staff members near the location of the code may need to go to the patient.

This presentation gives information on the pharmacology of Prostaglandins, Thromboxanes and Leukotrienes i.e. Eicosanoids. Eicosanoids are signaling molecules derived from polyunsaturated fatty acids like arachidonic acid. They are involved in complex control over inflammation, immunity, and the central nervous system. Eicosanoids are synthesized through the enzymatic oxidation of fatty acids by cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase enzymes. They have short half-lives and act locally through autocrine and paracrine signaling.
Breast cancer :Receptor (ER/PR/HER2 NEU) Discordance.pptxDr. Sumit KUMAR
Receptor Discordance in Breast Carcinoma During the Course of Life
Definition:
Receptor discordance refers to changes in the status of hormone receptors (estrogen receptor ERα, progesterone receptor PgR, and HER2) in breast cancer tumors over time or between primary and metastatic sites.
Causes:
Tumor Evolution:
Genetic and epigenetic changes during tumor progression can lead to alterations in receptor status.
Treatment Effects:
Therapies, especially endocrine and targeted therapies, can selectively pressure tumor cells, causing shifts in receptor expression.
Heterogeneity:
Inherent heterogeneity within the tumor can result in subpopulations of cells with different receptor statuses.
Impact on Treatment:
Therapeutic Resistance:
Loss of ERα or PgR can lead to resistance to endocrine therapies.
HER2 discordance affects the efficacy of HER2-targeted treatments.
Treatment Adjustment:
Regular reassessment of receptor status may be necessary to adjust treatment strategies appropriately.
Clinical Implications:
Prognosis:
Receptor discordance is often associated with a poorer prognosis.
Biopsies:
Obtaining biopsies from metastatic sites is crucial for accurate receptor status assessment and effective treatment planning.
Monitoring:
Continuous monitoring of receptor status throughout the disease course can guide personalized therapy adjustments.
Understanding and managing receptor discordance is essential for optimizing treatment outcomes and improving the prognosis for breast cancer patients.

The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.

We will also explore methods to heal from this challenging experience.
Understanding Atherosclerosis Causes, Symptoms, Complications, and Preventionrealmbeats0
Definition: Atherosclerosis is a condition characterized by the buildup of plaques, which are made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances, in the walls of arteries. Over time, these plaques harden and narrow the arteries, restricting blood flow.
Importance: This condition is a major contributor to cardiovascular diseases, including coronary artery disease, carotid artery disease, and peripheral artery disease. Understanding atherosclerosis is crucial for preventing these serious health issues.
Overview: We will cover the aims and objectives of this presentation, delve into the signs and symptoms of atherosclerosis, discuss its complications, and explore preventive measures and lifestyle changes that can mitigate risk.
Aim: To provide a detailed understanding of atherosclerosis, encompassing its pathophysiology, risk factors, clinical manifestations, and strategies for prevention and management.
Purpose: The primary purpose of this presentation is to raise awareness about atherosclerosis, highlight its impact on public health, and educate individuals on how they can reduce their risk through lifestyle changes and medical interventions.
Educational Goals:
Explain the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis, including the processes of plaque formation and arterial hardening.
Identify the risk factors associated with atherosclerosis, such as high cholesterol, hypertension, smoking, diabetes, and sedentary lifestyle.
Discuss the clinical signs and symptoms that may indicate the presence of atherosclerosis.
Highlight the potential complications arising from untreated atherosclerosis, including heart attack, stroke, and peripheral artery disease.
Provide practical advice on preventive measures, including dietary recommendations, exercise guidelines, and the importance of regular medical check-ups.
2. Objectives
● Hospital Emergency Codes are used in hospitals worldwide to alert
staff to various emergencies.
● The use of codes is intended to convey essential information quickly
and with minimal misunderstanding to staff, while preventing stress
and panic among visitors to the hospital.
3.
4. How to activate a code ?
● The code should be confirmed before its announcement.
● The code followed by the location of the emercency , should be repeated
three times.
Eg. :- Code Blue , Medical ward , First floor
5. CODE BLUE
● Code Blue is generally used to indicate a patient
requiring resuscitation, most often as the result of a
Respiratory Arrest or Cardiac Arrest.
● Start following the basic life support guidelines
until the code blue team arrive.
● Code blue team must arrive within 5 minutes
6. CODE BLUE
Code Blue Team:
● ICU Specialist or Consultant as Team Leader.
● Anesthesiologist.
● Respiratory Therapist
● ICU/ ER Head Nurse or Charge Nurse, or Team Leader
● Security
7. CODE BROWN
Code BROWN will be used in case of external disaster like
earthquake or multiple road traffic accident
After receiving 10 cases from external disaster, code BROWN
will be activated and the hospital will follow an emergency
operative plan.
The objective of the Emergency Operational Plan is to
effectively prepare for, manage a disaster or emergency and
restore the facility to the same operational capabilities as pre-
disaster levels.
8. CODE PURPLE
Code Purple is announced for an act of physical Assault in the hospital
either with patients or visitors or Staff.
Purpose:
To establish a process to protect patients from assault in the hospital.
To establish a process to protect Hospital staff from assault.
To establish standardized guidelines and procedures in the event of an
assault occurred within the hospital premisis.
9. CODE BLACK
The use of explosives or the threat to use explosives is becoming more
prevalent.
Bomb threats may be received by mail, message or in person, they are
usually made by telephone.
If a bomb threat is received, two options exist:
To evacuate the building immediately and/or to search the premises.
No threat should be ignored
10. CODE PINK
Code Pink is for Infant or Child abduction.
The Child is either missing from the hospital or sent with the wrong
parent.
11. CODE RED
It is alarm for Fire inside the hospital.
Purpose of fire safety plan is to
● Protect patients, visitors, contractors and employees.
