Medical Bills are indeed a horror  to many as per new reports.The patients are concerned about the transparency offered by many health services.A survey has found that most of the patients are consistently surprised by how their medical bills were.Pre-treatment cost estimates are not provided in most of the cases.Considering the fact that industry analysts claim hospital price calculations are arbitrary there is no sticker price . Some hospitals calculate their charge based on such factors as the cost of buying or leasing the machinery, the wear and tear on that machine, staff salaries, the climate control and electric bill, cleaning costs, local competitive pricing, and other costs related to the hospital’s overhead, like malpractice insurance.An interesting factor is that as technology advances,charges are at peak.But the cost and efficiency of care still continues to be a major motivating factor for many patients.They have the right to know how much will be the cost for services so that they can plan their care without breaking the bank.

Eye Infection

by Bose R C

                                                                  The discomfort, aches and also emission of the eye contamination could be brought on by harmful bacteria, viruses or even fungi. It is not easy to differentiate between all of them.
When we don't require antibiotics:
Minor contamination - wherever there exists a bit of inflammation as well as little distress - may be treated with over the counter, anti-bacterial treatments like Brolene Eye Drops together with GoldenEye which each of those include propamidine isetionate.
Instead of destroying the harmful bacteria, this slows down their build-up, enabling the body to combat the contamination.
When do we need antibiotics?
Whenever the eye region is incredibly aching with an emission, and also when they are glued together with crusting. This is often an indication of bacterial conjunctivitis and also indicates antibiotic eye drops are essential. for affected patients, it is  recommended that it should be used for 5 days, which include kids from the age group of one.

by Deepthi T N


                                         Dr.Harvey Cushing was given the title of the father of modern neurological surgery as he earned a worldwide reputation in this field, bringing about bold and novel surgical innovations in the field of medicine and surgery. Descending from a long line of medical practitioners, Cushing was always expected to get into a similar field. Many of the tools, techniques and procedures used in the operation theater today are the ones that were developed by Harvey Cushing in the early 19th century. He defined all medical traditions and took control of the most important, functioning system in the human body; the Central Nervous System. He discovered the deadly Cushing's disease and was also rewarded for his efforts and contribution to surgery and science. The Harvey Cushing Society, a first-of-its-kind, neurosurgical association was set up in honor of the prominent neurosurgeon. With his expertise, innovations and discoveries, Harvey Cushing made Neurology and Neurosurgery one of the most important divisions in medicine all over the world. Towards the end of his fast-paced career, Harvey Cushing decided to retire and briefly worked at the Yale University School of Medicine. He wrote and discovered the polyglandular syndrome and was also given the title of the ‘father of modern medicine’. He emphasized on the need of the sphygmomanometer that measured the blood pressure levels in the human body during surgery. This was one of his greatest contributions, next only to making neurosurgery a more realistic procedure and at par with the discovery of Cushing’s disease.
