Determining the appropriate utilization of amniotic membrane (AM) is essential in clinical practice. AM serves as a valuable therapeutic option for targeted ocular conditions such as refractory corneal wounds, complications stemming from Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and related issues. Its efficacy lies in promoting tissue healing and mitigating scar formation. Nonetheless, it's imperative to recognize that AM isn't a panacea for all ocular challenges, particularly those related to corneal adherence. Various forms of AM are available commercially, all boasting a commendable safety profile with no reported instances of adverse reactions over the past three decades. #DryEyeInsights #DryEyeCauses #EyeHealthAwareness #DryEyeExplained #EyeConditions #EyeHealthEducation #DryEyeAwareness #ContactLenses

โIt might be PCOS.โ Many women hear this when they experience irregular periods, unexplained acne, weight gain, and even strange hair growth. But traditionally, diagnosing PCOS can be a lengthy and invasive process. Here is some encouraging news: thereโs a new, approved method to come to a conclusion faster, as an alternative to the traditional transvaginal ultrasound, which isnโt suitable for everyone. Itโs a blood test that identifies the presence of polycystic ovarian morphology (PCOM) in women with suspected PCOS. This breakthrough method is long overdue because: โก๏ธ PCOS affects 1 in 8 women โก๏ธ PCOS can cause reproductive, metabolic, and psychological issues โก๏ธ 70% of women living with PCOS are undiagnosed Although there is no cure forย #PCOS, this new method can diagnose women faster, getting them answers to move forward, avoid long-term complications, and lead a higher quality of life. ๐ Read more from Rocheย Diagnostics: https://lnkd.in/gBi8E6aj #womenshealthย #womenshealthcare

Two weeks ago, we highlighted the article from Cori L. Ofstead about the necessity to regularly inspect the inside of endoscopes between reprocessing procedures. . ๐๐ป๐๐ปย Results showed that residual soil is still present in the majority of endoscopes (up to 84% of them are infected) and that 52% of endoscopes retain fluid. It is known that an aqueous environment is particularly prone to the development of biofilm.ย . Ofstead stated thatย โBacterial outbreaks have been linked to damaged and contaminated endoscopes. During several outbreaks among patients undergoing bronchoscopy, ureteroscopy, or duodenoscopy, visible defects or soil were discovered in the implicated endoscopes only after numerous patients were infected.โย . โ๐ปย When identifying highly soiled Medical Devices, immediate action should be taken in order to prevent (further) patient contamination and to avoid expensive repairs. . Therefor we recommend our High-Level enzymatic detergent for corrective cleaning of persistent microbial contamination & Biofilms. This solution is called EnziQureย ๐งฏ . Want to know more ?
