1) Self reflective writing on their medical student career :
“Medicine is not only a science; it is also an art. It does not consist of compounding pills and plasters; it deals with the very processes of life, which must be understood before they may be guided.”
my sincere gratitude to the faculty, mentors, colleagues, and patients who have been integral to my medical journey. Their guidance, support, and shared experiences have been invaluable pillars, shaping not only my professional identity but also my personal growth
The first case which attracted me as medical students was a case of 12 yr old girl brought to causality at around 3:00am with h/o 5-6 episodes of vomiting and in a drowsy and arousal state, obeying commands
On examination her
Bp was 110/90mmhg
Hr 93bpm
Rr 15cpm
Grbs 558mg/dl
Her urine for ketone bodies was positive
On taking history the patient was diagnosed with diabetes 3 months ago and was kept on insulin since 3 months
Pt used to miss her insulin dose in order to go to school early
As she missed her insulin dose on the day she was brought to casualty in drowsy state
The link for tha above case is below

[05/01, 6:16 PM] Rakesh Biswas Sir Gm Hod: How would you differentiate if this patient's pulmonary edema is cardiogenic or non cardiogenic?
While he has ample evidence to suspect it's cardiogenic are their any other data to suggest that it could even be non cardiogenic as in a covid like state?
[05/01, 6:48 PM] : It is most likely cardiogenic pulmonary edema as his history and symptoms fit in and also his chest x ray shows cardiomegaly too sir.
[05/01, 6:52 PM] +: Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema shows the classic “batwing” pattern of pulmonary opacities radiating centrifugally from the hila with air bronchogram. and cardiomegaly is also not seen

[14/01, 7:55 PM] Lohit Sir Gm Pg: Sir asking the patient to take
6 units Actrapid
8 units NPH before dinner
And tab metformin 500mg after dinner
[14/01, 7:57 PM] Lohit Sir Gm Pg: Sir do the readings suggest we give tab. Among 10mg from tomorrow
[14/01, 8:21 PM] Rakesh Biswas Sir Gm Hod: No let's wait till evening tomorrow
[14/01, 8:22 PM] Rakesh Biswas Sir Gm Hod: Share all the readings in one text box
[14/01, 9:01 PM] Lohit Sir Gm Pg: Sir unfortunately our pharmacy doesn’t have NPH at present sir
It was not available in outside pharmacy also
We have Inj. Mixtard
Inj Actrapid 30%
Inj. NPH 70%
How much dose shall we give sir?
@Rakesh Biswas Sir Gm Hod
[14/01, 9:22 PM] Rakesh Biswas Sir Gm Hod: 10U of mixtard will contain 7U of NPH and 3U of actrapid
We need to add 3U of actrapid to this mix for today's post dinner
For tomorrow's fasting we can give 12U of mixtard
[14/01, 9:23 PM] Rakesh Biswas Sir Gm Hod: What he did he take in the morning before breakfast then!!?? 🧐😳
[14/01, 9:29 PM] Rakesh Biswas Sir Gm Hod: Was 6U of mixtard given instead of NPH here?
[14/01, 9:30 PM] Lohit Sir Gm Pg: No sir morning we borrowed NPH from our icu

What's his fasting today?
[15/01, 8:18 AM] Pt Advocate: Today fasting
[15/01, 8:29 AM] Pt Advocate: Sir keye patient breakfast se pehele insulin le ga???
[15/01, 8:44 AM] Pt Advocate: Panner dosa, sammber and chatni breakfast
[15/01, 8:59 AM] Lohit Sir Gm Pg: Give Inj. Mixtard 12 Units now before breakfast
[15/01, 9:00 AM] Lohit Sir Gm Pg: Mixtard 10 units
Actrapid 3 units sir
[15/01, 9:47 AM] Rakesh Biswas Sir Gm Hod: Only 3.6 units of actrapid to absorb this dosa!
I would have preferred the same dose of actrapid as yesterday if not increased by +2
The low fasting is due to yesterday's NPH hike and has nothing to do with what's going to happen after two hours of his breakfast
[15/01, 11:01 AM] Pt Advocate: After breakfast
[15/01, 11:05 AM] Rakesh Biswas Sir Gm Hod: 👆@Lohit Sir Gm Pg Correlation between intervention choices and outcomes?
[15/01, 11:06 AM] Rakesh Biswas Sir Gm Hod: Adding 4 more units of watery insulin to the morning mixtard would have produced a better result
The blood sugars are nothing to worry about and can be easily optimized with judicious dose titrations of insulin
[15/01, 11:07 AM] Lohit Sir Gm Pg: Okay sir

1. Types of vsd
https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/heartdefects/ventricularseptaldefect.html
An infant with a ventricular septal defect can have one or more holes in different places of the septum. There are several names for these holes. Some common locations and names are (see figure):
- Conoventricular Ventricular Septal Defect
In general, this is a hole where portions of the ventricular septum should meet just below the pulmonary and aortic valves. - Perimembranous Ventricular Septal Defect
This is a hole in the upper section of the ventricular septum. - Inlet Ventricular Septal Defect
This is a hole in the septum near to where the blood enters the ventricles through the tricuspid and mitral valves. This type of ventricular septal defect also might be part of another heart defect called an atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD). - Muscular Ventricular Septal Defect
This is a hole in the lower, muscular part of the ventricular septum and is the most common type of ventricular septal defect.
2.Clincal findings in vsd
https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/heartdefects/ventricularseptaldefect.html
ventricular septal defect usually is diagnosed after a baby is born.
The size of the ventricular septal defect will influence what symptoms, if any, are present, and whether a doctor hears a heart murmur during a physical examination. Signs of a ventricular septal defect might be present at birth or might not appear until well after birth. If the hole is small, it usually will close on its own and the baby might not show any signs of the defect. However, if the hole is large, the baby might have symptoms, including:
- Shortness of breath,
- Fast or heavy breathing,
- Sweating,
- Tiredness while feeding, or
- Poor weight gain.
During a physical examination the doctor might hear a distinct whooshing sound, called a heart murmur. If the doctor hears a heart murmur or other signs are present, the doctor can request one or more tests to confirm the diagnosis. The most common test is an echocardiogram, which is an ultrasound of the heart that can show problems with the structure of the heart, show how large the hole is, and show how much blood is flowing through the hole
3.Treatment
https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/heartdefects/ventricularseptaldefect.html
Treatments for a ventricular septal defect depend on the size of the hole and the problems it might cause. Many ventricular septal defects are small and close on their own; if the hole is small and not causing any symptoms, the doctor will check the infant regularly to ensure there are no signs of heart failure and that the hole closes on its own. If the hole does not close on its own or if it is large, further actions might need to be taken.
Depending on the size of the hole, symptoms, and general health of the child, the doctor might recommend either cardiac catheterization or open-heart surgery to close the hole and restore normal blood flow. After surgery, the doctor will set up regular follow-up visits to make sure that the ventricular septal defect remains closed. Most children who have a ventricular septal defect that closes (either on its own or with surgery) live healthy lives.
Medicines
Some children will need medicines to help strengthen the heart muscle, lower their blood pressure, and help the body get rid of extra fluid.
Nutrition
Some babies with a ventricular septal defect become tired while feeding and do not eat enough to gain weight. To make sure babies have a healthy weight gain, a special high-calorie formula might be prescribed. Some babies become extremely tired while feeding and might need to be fed through a feeding tube.

How to collect 24 hr urine for 24 hr upcr?
24 hr urine sample collected after discarding the first sample at 6:00 am and urine is collected from next sample till next day morning first sample
Urine samples as given by attenders
Measuring cylinder 1 lt
Measuring urine volume using measuring cylinder
Urine measured=2300 ml
Mixing of urine
Video link for mixing of urine

After mixing both urine samples 3 ml test sample is taken and centrifuge slowely to saparate sediment and supernatant
Took 3 test tubes labeled as test, standard and blank,
Add 2ml of sulphosalicylic acid to each test tube
Sulphosalicylic acid
-Add 0.5 ml urine sample to test tube marked T
-Add 0.5 ml standard protein to standard tube marked S
Standard protein
-Nothing should be added to blank tube
Wait for 10 minutes
Comparison between blank and test
I could appreciate Cloudy appearance in test sample test tube
I kept blank in calorimeter and made zero cal
Blank
Reading 0.00 cal
Following this standard solution is placed in calorimeter
Reading 0.44 cal
Following this the test sample is placed
Reading 0.22 cal
All readings are notes
Calculating protein values
Calculating spot urine protein
=calorimeter test value x concentration of standard solution/ calorimeter standard value
[Concentration of standard solution =60mg]
=0.22 x 60/0.44
= 30 mg/dl
Spot urine protein = 30mg/dl
Calculating 24 hr protein
= spot protein x 24 hr urine volume/100
=30 x 2300/100
= 690mg/dl
24 hr urine protein is 690mg/dl
Calculating urinary creatinine
The test sample is diluted with distal water in ratio 1:10
100 u test sample + 900 u diatal water = dilution
This is done in BS 390 auto analyser
The value obtained for 1 :10 dilution= 1.96
Calculating spot urinary creatine
= value obtained x 10
[10 is constant-linearity range for Creatinine]
= 1.96 x 10 = 19.6 mg/dl
spot urinary creatine = 19.6 mg/dl
24hr urinary creatinine=
Calculated value x 24 hr urinary volume /100
=19.6 x 2300/100 = 450.8 mg/dl
Converting to gms = 0.45 gm/dl
24hr urinary creatinine= 450.8 mg/dl
24 hr Urinary protein creatinine ratio 1.5
