Treatment Guidelines To Follow In Home Care For Inotropic Therapy

Home care, especially for the ailing seniors, is not easy. The home caregivers need to follow a lot of set guidelines and rules for making sure that care services provided are just as needed by the patient. Whether it is treating a general patient or dressing the wound of someone who has met with an accident, there are specific processes to follow for every care process and therapy. The same is applicable for providing Inotropic therapy, especially in a home setting. However, the rules to follow in such types of care processes seem to be more severe simply due to the complicacies involved in it, aimed for the treatment of HF or heart failure.

Treatment Of Runner's Toenail Infection Naturally

Athlete's foot under microscope
The best example of professional predisposition to toenail infection can be seen in runners. Training or participation in big events – both can lead to fungal infection which is most commonly known as toenail infection. The causative agent as we all know is a fungus, namely, dermatophytes. We thought you may be interested in knowing, so... Why are toenail more susceptible than fingernails? Bloodflow to our toes is less than our fingers, which makes difficult for our immune system to detect and cure the infection. Toenails remian inside the shoes for a long time hence provide an apt environment for the fungus to grow. The two reasons runners get this infection include excessive sweat and occluding footwear.

The Puzzle of H. pylori: My Personal Pylori Project

Mastic Gum
Hi again! In Part 1 (The Puzzle of H. pylori: The Science) I explained what Helicobacter pylori is, how it invades the body, the symptoms it causes - basically, all the science stuff. Here in Part 2 of my trilogy of posts on my H. pylori experience I'm going to talk about my own personal H. pylori project i.e. my experiments with various foods and herbal remedies in my efforts to come up with my own treatment and eradicate the little pest from my body!   My personal pylori project The core of my plan has been the rather fantastic mastic gum, a herbal remedy from a Greek pistachio tree with potent anti-pylori activity. A little goes a long way – my pot of 13g lasted me 3 weeks. I'd just like to run through some more of the details of my plan, to give you an idea of the...
