Rheumatic heart disease : AKA “The Neglected Heart disease of the Poor” WHO 🎯 RHD, especially mitral stenosis (MS), poses a deadly risk to pregnant women in Africa, where poor access to healthcare exacerbates maternal and child outcomes. 🎯 WHO report, RHD affects ~40 million people globally, with the highest burden in Africa. 🎯 The condition contributes significantly to maternal mortality and adverse pregnancy outcomes. 🎯 We must amplify efforts to improve healthcare access and awareness. 🔐 If there is one cardiac condition where the POWER of #Prevention is truly palpable, it is RHD! Together, we can change the narrative and save lives on both the preventative and therapeutic ends! 💔 #RHDawareness #MaternalHealth #GlobalHealth Heart Attack Ethiopia, Inc.

Andrew Cameron, Professor at Johns Hopkins University’s School of Medicine Dept. of Transplant Surgery, stated. “it’s choppy waters to criticize the system, because we are predicated on the public’s trust in terms of donations. If we are inflammatory in our critique of the system, we run the risk of fracturing public trust in a way that will do us a disservice….” “As we work through those complicated issues, we need to maintain the public’s trust and try to help them understand how we can all work together towards increased organ utilization. We have to be very careful about steering away from the notion that there are malignant forces out there that work against transplantation.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/eYUikwyu Coordination between OPO's and transplant centers saves lives.

Well, at my first ever job, once having a talk with one of our directors, she said Look, "this corporate world, it doesn't have any emotions". In the very beginning of my career, this tiny but i must say an extremely powerful statement taught me a lesson that made me unbreakable, unstoppable and strong headed professional. Emotions Vs Rationality Asim went for Rationality. Salary Vs Financial Freedom Asim went for Financial Freedom while being a jobian. And the reason behind making myself an extremely tough soul was the statement from a senior that changed my lenses and actually did let me see the real world and learn its reality. Well, in todays ruthless and hippocratic world, everyone loves financially weak people because they are more vulnerable yet demands high productivity rate. Wanna know how to deal? You gotta make a package of respect, professionalism and uniqueness and give it to them. My learning are as under; * Be honest as its the first step towards loyalty but do not compromise over self respect. * Make sure that you are not being exploited. * Your happiness must be in your hands. * Your salary cheque depends upon the affordability of employer not upon your skills as employer or owner charges different prices that totally depends upon the affordability of buyer not upon the quality of the product or service. That's a basic rule of selling something, not a rocket science. * Your committment, dedication, loyalty and interest get you win races and achieve you milestones not someone's estimations, perceptions and findings about you. * Last but not Least, come up with the numbers or solutions atleast, Not justifications. Have a great Sunday. Prayers, 😉💜💜

Every three minutes a child is born somewhere in the world with a cleft condition. In first-world countries, corrective surgery is usually done within the first 18 months of life. In Southern Africa, where safe surgery is not always freely available or accessible, a child may have to wait years for the chance to live a normal life. Depending on the severity, cleft conditions can be repaired in just 45 minutes. Your donation makes new smiles possible. Did you know? Speech difficulties are common among children born with cleft conditions. They may struggle to make themselves understood, and need speech therapy after surgery.
