  • Pakistanmamau Trainingstudyjun5 Al Edited Ah Ah
    Reinvigorating the Postpartum IUCD Using a Low-Cost Simulation Model Overview Jhpiego Pakistan, in collaboration with Saving Lives at Birth, conducted a study trial of a new, portable, low-cost training simulation model called Mama-U. Designed in partnership with Laerdal Global Health, the Mama-U was developed specifically to train health care providers on the insertion of the postpartum intrauterine contraceptive device (PPIUCD). The main objectives of this study were to measure acceptability and appropriateness of the Mama-U, feasibility of this technology, confidence of providers during training and retention of provider skills associated with this new training simulation model. Given that the PPIUCD is new to family planning programs in Pakistan, the Mama-U was introduced to facilitate effective training of physicians, nurses and midwives to improve their insertion skills for placement of an IUCD after birth and to reduce the rate of expulsion. Eighty-eight health care providers—the majority of whom were physicians—participated in the study and were trained using the Mama-U model. Seventy clients were interviewed in a follow- up to the study. The key findings were: • 82% of the providers trained using the Mama-U model stated that they felt confident in providing PPIUCD services. Overall, 85% of providers could perform the procedure at two-month follow-up according to standards. • 78.6% of clients counseled using the simulation model said that seeing the model demonstration helped them decide to accept PPIUCD. • Of all the providers trained, 97% were in favor of the model and recommended using the Mama-U in future trainings, while 91% of clients would recommend PPIUCD to their families and others based on their experience.

  • Dr. Muhammad Imran Azeem
    OBITUARY OBITUARY Dr. Muhammad Imran Azeem For the Pakistani anesthesia fraternity, 2019 closed with a great deal of pain to boot. Our beloved Dr. Muhammad Imran Azeem left the world on the last day of the year, leaving behind as mourners not just his parents, siblings, wife and children, but a large anesthetic community who had known and loved him. Imran entered anesthesiology as a resident at Hameed Latif Hospital with the Kaul Associates Lahore in 2005, and this affiliation remained strong till his death. During his career, he worked at Lady Aitchison Hospital Lahore and Lady Willingdon Hospital Lahore as senior registrar and assistant professor respectively. Currently, he was appointed as associate professor of anesthesia at PGMI / Ameer-ud-Din Medical College / LGH Lahore. For the people who ever came to know him, - friends, students, colleagues and subordinates – Imran was a class apart. His anesthetic prowess, especially when dealing with pediatric patients, was well known amongst those who had worked with him; so were his light-hearted jokes and infectious smile. Many busy evenings at Hameed Latif hospital were enriched by his tall, lanky presence, strolling from OR to OR, lending a hand or cracking a crisp joke whenever, either was needed. Imran’s unexpected death has been untimely by all means. A tragic accident involving a fall from a stair knocked him down with severe head injury on 15 December 2019. He succumbed to his injuries on 31 December 2019, after days on mechanical ventilation. As we bid farewell to the year 2019 and to Dr. Imran Azeem, we pray that the man who helped to put thousands to a gentle sleep, is blessed with a restful eternal sleep himself.

  • A Randomized Controlled Trial of Cystoinflation to Prevent Bladder
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN A randomized controlled trial of cystoinfation to prevent bladder injury in the adhesive disease of multiple caesarean sections Shazia Saaqib1*, Ayesha Iqbal1, Munazza Naheed1, Tayyaba Saeed1 & Mohammad Khalid2 Caesarean sections carry the risk of urinary bladder injury due to formation of adhesions obscuring pelvic planes. Visualizing bladder during retro-fll (cystoinfation) makes it recognizable as it rises into the abdomen taking a tense rounded contour. We conducted a prospective randomized controlled trial to fnd out whether improved identifcation of bladder margins by cystoinfation could decrease bladder injury rate and blood loss without causing urological complications. This study included 214 healthy women with previous operative deliveries undergoing elective caesarean section and found to have dense pelvic adhesions. The subjects were randomly allocated into cystoinfation and control groups. Adhesiolysis was performed using bladder retro-fll with 300 cc saline in cystoinfation group, and without retro-fll in control. The bladder injury rate was signifcantly lower in cystoinfation group compared to control (2.8% vs 20.6%, P < .0001) with lesser blood loss in cystoinfation group (585.33 cc vs 797.10 cc, P < .0001). Mean operative time was similar in both groups. Urinary tract infection and micturition problems occurred more frequently in control group than cystoinfation group (16.8% vs 1.9%, P = .001 and .47 ± 1.63% vs 077 ± .633%, P = .021 respectively) with fstula in one subject compared to none in cystoinfation group. In this study, cystoinfation was efective to signifcantly reduce bladder injury rate and blood loss. This technique may also prove useful in the felds of surgery, urology and urogynecology.
