Dear IMA Brothers & Sisters,

As the festival cheers of Diwali settles down, we enter the
Satyagraha mode. Our genuine protest is against NMC in the
interest of Professional autonomy. In the hostile circumstances
amidst which we are practicing, we demand a Central Medicare
Protection Act towards Safety of Hospital Personnel & Premises.
Practicing Modern Medicine and serving the society should be
the preserve of us, who are qualified and registered. Allied Health
manpower around us are trying everything, including Bridge
Courses to Prescribe & Practice Modern Medicine which should
never be allowed... Solidarity will be our only weapon ...
Yours sincerely,

 Hands up for
# HIV prevention
The decline in new HIV
infections among adults has
stalled. The UNAIDS
Prevention gap report shows
that worldwide an estimated
1.9 million adults have become
infected with HIV every year for
at least the past five years and
that the number of new HIV infections is rising in some regions. The report shows that HIV
prevention efforts must be reinvigorated if the world is to stay on the Fast-Track to ending the
AIDS epidemic by 2030.
Hands up campaign
In the lead-up to World AIDS Day 2016, the hands up for #HIVprevention
campaign will explore different aspects of HIV prevention and how they
relate to specific groups of people, such as adolescent girls and young
women, key populations and people living with HIV.
Starting in September, the campaign will also offer people
a space to express their views on what they think needs
to be done to strengthen HIV prevention efforts. UNAIDS
is asking people around the world to submit:
 A photograph of a word or short phrase written on the
palm of their hand summarizing what we need to strengthen
HIV prevention efforts, for example more condoms,
empowerment, inclusion, pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP),
rights for women and girls.
The photo
Take a photo of your raised hand with a word or phrase written
on your palm—the photo can show just your palm or your palm
and face. Make sure your hand is not too far from your face!
Share it
Go to the UNAIDS Facebook page and upload your photo/video
on the event page specially created
for the 2016 World AIDS Day #HIVprevention campaign. Then,
share it on your own Facebook wall to help us spread the word.
Other campaign materials
We will make other campaign materials, such as posters and
postcards, available for download from unaids.org.
Suggested topics
The campaign will cover aspects of HIV prevention, such as
condoms and lubricants, harm
reduction, PrEP, voluntary
medical male
circumcision,
prevention of

November 2016 TIMA News Letter 06

mother-to-child transmission of HIV, testing and
viral suppression. It will also explore how to
address the barriers that prevent adolescent
girls and young women, key populations and
people living with HIV from accessing and
using these services.
As an inspiration for your photo/video
message, you might think about answering
questions such as:
 What needs to be done to reduce the
number of new HIV infections?
 How can we scale up resources for HIV
prevention?
 Who needs to be involved in designing and
delivering prevention programmes and
services?
 How can we make sure that HIV prevention
programmes and services reach the people
most in need?
 What policies or approaches need to
change to strengthen HIV prevention
efforts?
As further inspiration, you might also like to
refer to the Fast-Track commitments to end
AIDS by 2030. 

T
he National Pollution Control Day is celebrated every year on 2nd of December in
India in order to give the honor and memorialize the thousands of human beings who
had lost their existence because of the Bhopal gas calamity.
Bhopal gas tragedy was happened in the night of 2nd and 3rdDecember in the year 1984 because
of the unintentional discharge of the poisonous chemical known as Methyl Isocyanate (also called
MIC) as well as some other chemicals released from the Union Carbide Chemical Plant positioned
in the city. According to the report, more than 500,000 people (of which around 2259 were died
immediately) were exposed to the poisonous gas of MIC.
Later, it was declared by the government of Madhya Pradesh that around 3,787 deaths were
related to the gas tragedy. In the next 72 hours, around 8,000 to 10,000 people were died whereas
around 25,000 people were died later because of the gas-related diseases. It was identified as the
biggest industrial pollution disaster of the history worldwide which needed serious preventive measures
suddenly in order to stay away from such type of disaster in the future.

 HEALTH AND FFAMIL
HEALTH
Health Advisory for Doctors, Clinics and Hospitals on
Fever Case Management
N ormally as per World
Health Organization (WHO)
estimates at any given time
about one percent of the
population is likely to have fever.
During rainy season and winter
season it may rise upt 1.5% to
2%. Most of these fevers are
ordinary viral fevers like
common cold, mild seasonal flu
etc. At the same time fevers like
Dengue, Chikungunya, Leptos
-pirosis, Enteric Fever, Scrub
Typhus may lead to compli
-cations and mortality if
neglected.
Over the last 5 decades,
dengue has emerged globally as
a critical threat to population
health. The World Health
Organization (WHO) estimates
that 50 – 100 million dengue
infections occur each year and
that almost half the world’s
population lives in more than 125
countries where dengue is
endemic.
Mortality from fevers can be
reduced to zero by immediately
implementing timely, appropriate
clinical management, which
involves early clinical and
laboratory diagnosis, intraven
-ous rehydration, staff training
and hospital reorganization and
training health personnel, along
with appropriate referrals.

DEPARTMENT
Fever morbidity can also be
reduced by implementing
improved outbreak prediction
and detection through co-
ordinated epidemiological and
entomological surveillance,
promoting the principles of
integrated vector management
and deploying locally-adapted
vector control measures
including effective urban and
household water management.
Effective communication can
achieve behavioral outcomes
that augment prevention and
control activities.
A state level monitoring and
Inter departmental co-orination
committee headed by the Chief
Secretary and District level
interdepartmental co-ordination
committee headed by the District
Collector are formed for
reviewing the epidemic control
activities periodically. As part of
the comprehensive multidimensi
-onal efforts to prevent and
control fever cases, the advisory
is issued to all medical
professionals and hospitals for
strict adherence.
1. Protocol based approach to
fever case management
Proper fever case manage
- ment and correct monitoring
of all fever cases is very much

-ons and mortality. Proper
clinical assessment, Lab
diagnosis, Fluid management
and timely referral are the key
elements to be followed in each
fever case. In the case of Dengue
“National Guidelines for Clinical
Management of Dengue Fever”
should be meticulously follo
-wed. These guidelines can be
downloaded from
www.nvbdcp.gov.in;
www.searo.who.int/india
All medical doctors should
perceive the importance of
proper management of fever
cases since some of the fevers
may result in complications, if
not diagnosed and treated early.
Aspirin, NSAIDs like
ibuprofen, Diclofenac sodium,
steroids and unnecessary
injections should be avoided.
2. Laboratory diagnosis
The infections which cause
fever and epidemic potential in
India are Typhoid, Dengue,
Chikungunya, Leptospirosis,
Scrub typhus and Malaria. For
all fever cases diagnostic test
should be carried out to rule out
malaria, typhoid, dengue and
leptospirosis. Depending on the
clinical symptoms tests for
chikungunya, scrub typhus and
other infections may also be
done.

In the case of suspected
clinical dengue during the initial
5 days NS1 test by ELISA
method, after 5 days IgM test

Rapid Diagnostic Test Kits
should be avoided.
3. Communication with the
patient and family members.
 Parents / relatives of all fever
patients should be explained
about the type of fever,
investigations details and
condition of the patient.
 It should be reassured and
the questions raised by the
parents / relatives should be

Dear colleagues in IMA,
Counselling for admission to Paramedical
courses through Selection committee of
Director of Medical Education to 535 seats in
16 Govt. colleges and 7190 seats in 147 self
financing Nursing colleges was over recently.
These numbers are highly inadequate and
there were sizable vacant seats in some of the
Private Nursing Colleges. There is a report that
India will require 142 Lakhs Health Care
Professional in the coming decade.
There is always a dearth of Health care
workers in our 3800 NHB registered Private
Hospitals. Hence IMA TNSB with a visionary
dedicated effort is running Paramedical
courses through a separate wing and produce
1000-1200 Health Assistants every year
through 70-80 NHB Hospitals after a
thorough inspection and supervised
examination.
The eligibilities and syllabus followed by us

people to practice. This book contains nice

Dear Members,
Greetings from Erode.
PPLSSS is gaining importance as cases are
increasing. Most of the New Members joining
IMA are joining PPLSSS IMA TN. Last month I
had written about the National Medical
Council. The SathyaGraha is on 16.11.2016
Morning. Hope our members read about NMC
and they should take part in the SathyaGraha.
Dr.E.Pari has written a book on “Medical
Negligence and the Consumer Protection Act”
is a mark in the history of PPLSSS of IMA Tamil
Nadu. He has taken 20 cases and studied
extensively. He has decided the work into 4
sections.
The consumer protection act is dealt with.
He has also touched about the AYUSH doctors
practicing allopathic. The advertisement by
doctors which produces a lot of controversy is
discussed.MCI Regulations is dealt with.
He has also mentioned about the
advertisements by Non Doctors. This problem
is a never ending problem for not only the
doctors of modern medicine, but also for
qualified AYUSH Doctors. Let them practice their
pathy and let them also not allow non-qualified
articles.
I wish Dr.E.Pari to publish more books like
this through PPLSSS of IMA TN for the benefit
of our members.
PPLSSS is bringing out this book, member
can get and read. Tamil Nadu Govt is forming
an antiquackery committee in each Dist. IMA
representation is not there. IMA President of
the Major Branch in the Dist Head Quarters
must be included. This we must insist to the
Collector and to the Tamil Nadu Govt. Now
the Govt is asking the list of Non-Qualified
persons practicing medicines to give the list to
your branch secretary.
Hospital Board of India in bringing a book
“A Practical Guide to Hospital Start UPS” please
go through the book. The Next PPLSSS
Management Committee Meeting is on
27.11.2016 at Madurai IMA Hall. Members
willing to clear any doubts can write to
Dr.T.SenthamilPari, Secretary, PPLSSS so that
the matters can be discussed and intimated.
If any members wants any representation in
person, please write to the Secretary. Both JVL
Plaze Guest House and SankaraAppartment
Guest House are utilised by our members. If
any suggestions, Please write in the book kept
at the Guest houses. Thanking you!

the medical records available on the file. As per
ultrasonography report, it was a case of
Adenomyosis. The complainant submitted that the
original medical record, written statement, etc., were
lost. It is pertinent to note that the record of this
complaint was reconstructed on the basis of papers
available with the parties. As per deposition of Dr.
Kusum Dubey, she had not performed any surgery
on the patient or gave any treatment to the patient,
the enquiry in this regard was conducted by Chief
Medical Officer, Lucknow, wherein, it was found that
Dr. Kusum Dubey never performed any surgery on
the patient. She was, on duty, on 18.7.2004 from 1.45
p.m. till 7 p.m., in the Government Hospital. Even,
before a panel of four independent expert doctors,
the complainant failed to prove any evidence in
respect to the treatment, if any given by Dr. Kusum
Dubey. As per record, Dr. Kusum Dubey is a qualified
doctor working in Government Hospital Aliganj,
Lucknow. As per affidavit of Dr. Mohd. Kayyum, the
hospital is a super specialty hospital, where the
patient was treated.
In Page no: NC 296, In Para 9:- The State
Commission categorically observed that:
“At the time of hearing of his complaint since no
one appeared on behalf of the complainant to press
on the facts of the complaint as aforesaid thereby
filing any evidence in support of the facts of the
case, therefore, we come to this conclusion that there
is no evidence against both the aforesaid doctors,
Dr. Kusum Dubey as well as Dr. Mohd. Kayum that
they have even afforded any medical treatment to
Smt. Suman Shukla or committed any medical
negligence.”
