Achievements

Activity

  • Thank you.

  • Nice journey

  • adapt
    on the way of achievement

  • Speak @ parents' language
    Best way to communicate

  • KEEP IT SLOW & SIMPLE WITH ENDLESS REPETITION
    This is very important for every child.

  • Is there any relationship between AHHD & prematurity ?

  • What kind of learning defects are expected in premature babies ?

  • Good opportunity to improve learning.

  • LASER treatment is the gold standard for the treatment of ROP.

  • Excellent flow chart

  • Nice teaching

  • What is the ideal dilation protocol for ROP screening ?

  • What is the relationship between postnatal weight gain & chance of ROP ?

  • Can retina examination by BIO produce apnea or hypoxia in premature babies ?

  • Strong leadership & work culture of the institution are the key factors behind QI intervention

  • Sensitization of parents should be started just after birth of the baby. In my opinion it may be divided into several modules & each module is of five minutes duration. After several sitting with parents [modules], one can explain the visual outcome of the baby to the parents.

  • Every country should have their own model of data collection & analysis.

  • Is there any relation between new born oxygen saturation curve & ROP development ?

  • What will be additional measurement in NICU during Covid era ?

  • Training of paramedics can avoid complications.

  • In utero transfer is more useful to prevent ROP.

  • Clean hand & no to minimum touch to neonates are priceless steps to prevent sepsis & other complications which is also relevant in ROP prevention.

  • Kangaroo method is a good & accessible method to keep neonate warm without any cost. This is important for low income countries.

  • Teenage marriage & teenage pregnancy both are important factors for pre mature birth. To reduce ROP case in low & middle income countries it is very important to restrict teenage marriage & teenage pregnancy both.

  • Prevention is better than cure.

  • Good one

  • Tamluk where I am working as a general ophthalmologist is , ROP is not managed here. Overall consciousness regarding ROP is very poor among service provider. Intensive awareness work up is urgently required among neonatologist, pediatrician, gynecologists & ophthalmologists also.

  • ROP screening protocol should include Gynecologist also. Because they are mother's doctors who have strong impact over family which is important to convince family member about long term follow up of these babies.

  • Low vision aid is an important tool for ROP babies.

  • Positive attitude is a critical attitude to ROP baby & family of ROP baby.

  • Neonatal care unit should be supported by one trained ophthalmologist. Other than existing protocol all babies should be checked for ROP before discharge from NICU. So NICU should be supported by one fulltime ophthalmologist.

  • Good one. It will be better to place job aid in one page which may be used as a poster.

  • Saugata Maity made a comment

    Identification of APROP require proper training of ophthalmologist & development of good network to deliver services to susceptible neonate.

  • What is the dialating protocol for ROP screening ?

  • ROP screening protocol is totally dependent upon trained ophthalmologist which is not proportionate to the magnitude of the problem. It is the time to train nicu paramedics to train ROP screening to intensify screening programme.

  • Premature babies are prone to develop myopia and irregular astigmatism followed by amblyopia. Vision screening at pre school age is very important, but for preverbal children cycloplegic refraction is the gold standard. For routine screening vision screener can be used.

  • High resolution wide field user friendly pediatric fundus camera may be a good tool in ROP screening in areas where trained ophthalmologist is not available. Paramedics will take fundus picture and send to an international center for ROP screening. After rapid analysis of fundus pictures ophthalmologists can guide the remote centers about high risk babies.

  • Hi
    I am Saugata, I am particularly interested in role of artificial intelligence in ROP screening.

  • How to start ROP Screening as a General Ophthalmologist ?

  • ROP is a neglected sector in new born care in India. Only very few centres doing good work with ROP babies which is not enough for a big country like in India.

  • Diabetic Retinopathy severity is also associated with renal status.

  • People with Diabetes may present with recurrent External hordeolum .

  • LogMAR chart is used mainly in research purposes.

  • Local epidemiology is always very important tool to understand disease magnitude in the community.

  • To collect blood for post prandial blood sugar what is the recommendation regarding time interval of two hours from initiation of full lunch or finish of meal ?

  • Hello everyone, I am SAUGATA from India working as General Ophthalmologist at Gunadhar eye Clinic, West Bengal, India. India will be capital of Diabetes in next decade. I want to strengthen my knowledge about Diabetic Eye Disease to fulfill my role in my country.

  • Welcome every body
