Ziqitza Rajasthan - Importance of 104 Health helpline to bridge the health and Patients ratio gap

The medical emergency number 104 in India has been nothing short of a miracle and a boon to its citizens. Over the last decade, India’s healthcare has undergone a tremendous transformative journey. The health sector has been able to reach the last mile and be able to provide primary healthcare services, and the government policies, introduction of new health schemes, increased public private partnership, etc, has played a cascading role in it. With everything evolving in the health sector, introduction of the 104 medical helpline number has been the most important and took the evolution in India’s health sector to the next level.

 Ziqitza Healthcare Ltd, one of India’s leading emergency services and assistance providers, calls the introduction of medical helpline number 104 revolutionary; although the concept isn’t novel and many countries already offer it. It is revolutionary because it enables people to avoid medical emergencies, by being able to seek free medical consultation from a qualified doctor over a call. Ziqitza calls the introduction of the 104 medical helpline number a huge step towards preventive healthcare, as it makes primary healthcare and assistance accessible to the people with zero cost involved.

 It was the Government of Karnataka that first initiated the 104 medical helpline services (Arogyavani) to its people. Arogyavani provides medical consultation and health counselling services, and also acts as a grievance redressal system. Inspired by the success of Arogyavani in Karnataka, the Government of Punjab in the year 2014 partnered with Ziqitza Healthcare launched a 104 medical helpline call centre and offered its services in three languages - Punjabi, English and Hindi. As part of public private partnership, Ziqitza Rajasthan in partnership with National Health Mission soon launched the 104 medical helpline numbers in the states of Odisha and Chhattisgarh. The other states where 104 non-emergency medical helpline numbers are active are Assam, Jharkhand, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Telangana and Madhya Pradesh.

 Ziqitza Limited elaborates that the primary function of the 104 medical helpline is to provide health related services to the general public. These helplines assist the public in seeking the best care and solution available. Some of their role is listed below for easy reference:

 They act as an information directory and     assist the public in seeking information about health service providers,     diagnostic centres and services, clinics and hospitals etc.

They register complaints against persons or     institutions which are guilty of negligence, deficiency in services,     corruption etc.

They act as an efficient response channel     for health scares and localised epidemics.

They offer counselling and advice for     depression, anxiety, HIV, AIDS, RTI, STI etc

They Provide information about various     government schemes, institutions and information on blood banks

They handle grievances related to patient     healthcare, equipment at hospitals or health centres, doctors’     availability and capabilities, etc.

They offer medical counselling on family     planning,  on diseases considered     taboo, drug rehabilitation services etc.

They provide suggestive medication via SMS,     first aid advice and health alerts.

The 104 health helpline number has been able to bridge the gap between the patients and health professionals. The 104 helpline numbers largely operated by ZHL Rajasthan in various states, is responsible for offering assistance for minor physiological illnesses, distresses and ailments. However, these helpline numbers acquired a much more important role during the COVID-19 pandemic. The number 104 was declared the national COVID-19 helpline number, and since then the Ziqitza Limited Rajasthan operated helpline numbers in Madhya Pradesh and Odisha has successfully handled and received an unprecedented number of COVID-19 related queries. Ziqitza Health care operated centres witnessed a huge increase in inflow of calls, from receiving an average 2000 calls per day to receiving over10,000 calls per day. And these calls were a mix of both general ailment related queries and COVID-19 related queries.

 While the medical helpline service is available across many states, there are still many who do not know about this number and are not aware about it. It becomes the moral obligation of those who know about it, to make others also aware about the helpline number. The scope of the 104 medical helpline number is vast and dynamic. The helpline numbers have played an essential role in recent times, especially now that we’re rebuilding our nation after the COVID-19 pandemic. The helpline played a major role in providing information to people during the lockdowns. These medical helpline numbers prove that geographies are no more boundaries, and cannot act as hindrance for someone seeking healthcare.

Cardiovascular Diseases Industry in India Share, Trends & Forecast to 2026

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are amongst the fatal diseases across the globe, accounting for over 25% of the total mortalities in India every year. The Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) and the World Economic Forum (WEF) revealed that between 2012 and 2030, the total economic burden of non-communicable diseases in India is estimated to reach $1.7 trillion (INR 126 lakh crore). CVD includes high blood pressure, coronary artery disease, cardiac arrest, stroke, arrhythmia, congestive heart failure, peripheral artery disease, and congenital heart disease. The high blood pressure is the most prevalent in India. Therefore, there is a significant demand for anti-hypertensive drugs in the Indian CVD market. In conjunction with the management of high blood pressure, the chances reduces for the occurrence of other chronic health conditions, such as stroke, heart attack, or other complications.

As per the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), CVD's risk factors have increased across all states in India between 1990 and 2017. In less developed Indian states, such as Bihar, Rajasthan, Meghalaya, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, Assam, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and Odisha, the prevalence of the CVD is comparatively less, with the prevalence of the disease varied between 3,000 and 4,000 per one million population in 2017.

MAJOR CATEGORIES IN THE CVD THERAPY

i)          Lipid Medications (Statins)

ii)         Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (Sartans)

iii)        Beta-Blockers

iv)        Anticoagulants

Whereas beta-blockers are used to treat various conditions such as hypertension, arrhythmia, chest pain, and migraine, among others.

The major key players active in the Indian CVD drug market include Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd., Torrent Pharmaceuticals, Ltd., Lupin, Ltd., USV Pvt., Ltd., and Glenmark Pharmaceuticals, Ltd. Company-wise, Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. is the largest player in CVD drugs with around 15% market share in the Indian CVD drug market in 2020.

Coronavirus Outbreak in Maharashtra Latest Updates

More local trains for essential services staff from today

Central Railway and Western Railway will run additional 150 and 148 local services, respectively, in Mumbai from 1 July, reports PTI. Only essential staff including those of Centre, IT, defense, Raj Bhavan will be allowed and no general passengers will be allowed yet, the news agency quotes Railways minister Piyush Goyal as saying.

Coronavirus LATEST Updates: The Railways will expand its suburban services in Mumbai from today and run 350 trains each in the Central and Western Railway Zones, Union Minister Piyush Goyal said. The trains will, however, only carry essential services personnel identified by the Maharashtra government. Mumbai recorded 903 new cases, pushing the total number of cases to rise to 77,197 on Tuesday.

As Unlock-2 begins from Wednesday, India's COVID-19 tally climbed to 5,66,840 with nearly 66 percent cases reported in June alone. The nationwide toll rose to 16,893 with 418 new fatalities being reported in 24 hours, according to the Union Health Ministry data.

On Tuesday, Tamil Nadu again surpassed Delhi to regain the second spot among the list of worst-hit states by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced an extension of the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana (PMGKAY), a government scheme, which aims to provide free ration for 80 crore people, by five more months till the end of November.

In his televised address Tuesday, the prime minister also said it is a cause of worry that people are not adhering as strictly to rules and precautions during the 'unlock' phase as they did during the lockdown.

Modi announces extension of free ration scheme

Stating the cost to the exchequer in extending the PMGKAY scheme, the prime minister said that over Rs 90,000 crore will be spent on the scheme, and if the last three months' expenditure on account of the free ration scheme is added, then the total budget will be about Rs 1.5 lakh crore.

The scheme was rolled out for three months from April soon after the nationwide lockdown was announced to combat the COVID-19 pandemic.

Noting that July marks the beginning of the festive season when people's needs as well as expenditure increase, Modi said that the government has decided to extend the scheme till November end.

The prime minister also said in his 16-minute address that the Central Government is working on the "one nation, one ration card" initiative which, he added, will benefit people living outside their home for employment and other needs the most.

This was Modi's sixth address to the nation after the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic

The prime minister said that each member of a family covered under the scheme will get five kilogrammes of wheat or rice, and every family will get one kilogramme whole gram per month as well.

Modi, however, lamented that there is an increasing "negligence" in personal and social behaviour during the easing of restrictions and urged people to be more vigilant.

"We have also seen that since 'Unlock-1', there is increasing negligence in personal and social behaviour. Earlier, we were very careful with respect to wearing of masks, social distancing and washing of hands for 20 seconds. But today, when we need to be more careful, increasing negligence is a cause of worry," he said and urged the people to follow all necessary precautions.

He also emphasised on strict enforcement of rules, especially in containment zones.

"Those not following the rules will need to be stopped and cautioned," he said, stressing "be it a village pradhan or the prime minister, no one is above the law in India".

Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu record most cases

Maharashtra remained the highest contributor to the single day rise in cases, registering over 5,200 coronavirus infections, according to the Union Health Ministry.

Recording nearly 4,000 cases in the last 24 hours, Tamil Nadu has again surpassed Delhi to regain the second spot among the list of worst-hit states by the pandemic.

Karnataka also recorded more than 1,100 cases overtaking Haryana and Andhra Pradesh.

Delhi saw an increase of 2,084 cases in the past 24 hours. In June, the national capital added over 64,000 fresh cases to its tally, while over 47,357 patients recovered, were discharged or migrated.

The total number of COVID-19 cases has gone up to 15,394 in Telangana, 14,295 in Karnataka, 14,210 in Haryana, 13,891 in Andhra Pradesh, and 13,370 in Madhya Pradesh.

It has risen to 9,640 in Bihar, 7,752 in Assam, 7,237 in Jammu and Kashmir and 6,859 in Odisha. Punjab has reported 5,418 novel coronavirus infections so far, while Kerala has 4,189 cases.

Puducherry has recorded 619 COVID-19 cases, Chandigarh 435, Nagaland 434 and Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu together have reported 203 COVID-19 cases.

Arunachal Pradesh reported 187 cases, Mizoram has 148 cases, Andaman and Nicobar Islands has 90, Sikkim has registered 88 infections so far, while Meghalaya has recorded 47 cases.

Delhi govt sets ball rolling for 'plasma bank'

The Delhi government has set the ball rolling to establish the first-of-its-kind "plasma bank" for treatment of COVID-19 at a facility in the National Capital and its modalities are being worked out, sources told PTI.

The bank is being set up at the Delhi government-run Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences (ILBS) and doctors or hospitals will have to approach it if a plasma is required for treatment of a COVID-19 patient.

Addressing an online media briefing on Monday, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had said the bank will be operational in the next two days.

The move comes as convalescent plasma therapy has shown "encouraging" results in city hospitals, he had said.

Sources said the facility where the plasma will be drawn from one person to donate to a COVID-19 patient, is being set up on the serving floor of the ILBS.

The plasma itself can be stored in the blood bank facility in a separate pack, a source said.

According to experts, plasma needs cryogenic storage at minus 80 degrees Celsius or less.

Bharat Biotech gets nod to conduct trials for vaccine

The Drug Controller General of India (DCGI) has granted permission to Bharat Biotech International Limited (BBIL) to conduct Phase I and II Human clinical trials to develop an indigenous vaccine for COVID-19 —  in the name COVAXIN.

For this, Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) and BBIL had partnered to develop a fully indigenous vaccine for COVID-19 using the virus strain isolated at ICMR's National Institute of Virology (NIV), Pune.

"The Central Drug Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) — the office of DCGI has granted permission to initiate Phase I and II Human clinical trials after the company submitted results generated from preclinical studies, demonstrating safety and immune response. Human clinical trials are scheduled to start across India in July 2020," stated the spokesperson of Bharat Biotech.

"The strain was successfully transferred from NIV to Bharat Biotech International Ltd. (BBIL). Work on vaccine development has been initiated between the two partners. ICMR-NIV are providing continuous support to BBIL for vaccine development. ICMR and BBIL will seek fast-track approvals to expedite vaccine development, subsequent animal studies and clinical evaluation of the candidate vaccine," said ICMR official.

Free children from chains: India and the world need a multi-dimensional strategy to stop human trafficking

By: Kailash Satyarthi

Kailash Satyarthi is a child rights activist and recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize for 2014

Ideas have legs. So, do human beings. When ideas are chained, we desecrate the very fundamentals of freedom. When human beings are chained, we desecrate the fundamentals of humanity.

One of the monumental milestones for mankind is the abolition of slavery. But while we have won many decisive wars against slavery and bondage, we haven’t succeeded in completely vanquishing this degrading and dehumanising practice. What is ironic is that the world today has the largest number of slaves at any point of time in history, even medieval or colonial.

Let us remind ourselves of some sobering and deeply disturbing facts. More than 21 million people across the world are victims of trafficking. They are de facto 21st century slaves.

While sexual slavery and forced labour remain the major drivers behind trafficking, shocking new trends have emerged. At least 10 nations have reported that trafficking has been related directly with organ harvesting. This is now a $32 billion a year business according to the UN.

But humanitarian agencies reckon that it has surpassed drugs and arms as the largest criminal business in the world with an annual revenue of $150 billion. Women and children constitute 71% of the victims. How can any civilisation allow this atrocity to continue and flourish?

Another alarming trend is that the line between migration, refugee crisis and trafficking is becoming very thin. It has been consistently noticed that the geographical paths and routes of trafficking bear striking resemblance with those of migration. The increasing scale of both natural and man-made disasters, particularly armed conflicts and civil wars, is creating a whole new generation of refugees who are becoming victims of trafficking gangs. Syria is a stark reminder of this trend.

Clearly, law enforcement agencies in developed countries as well as global bodies tasked to check trafficking need much more coordination and cooperation. Moreover, the international community – by incorporating abolition of trafficking and all other forms of modern slavery in a time bound manner in UN Sustainable Development Goals – has agreed this crime has wider negative implications on economic growth and development. Realisation of these goals requires will, resources and action at national and international levels.

India has not been immune to this global scourge. Official data indicates that close to 20,000 women and children were trafficked in India in 2016 but the real numbers could be far higher. More than 1,00,000 children go missing every year. Almost half of them are never traced. Most of the untraced children become victims of human trafficking, slavery, begging and prostitution rackets.

Since most victims of trafficking belong to poor and marginalised families, hardly anyone, including police personnel, paid much attention to these family tragedies. But a historic Supreme Court judgment of 2013 based on a petition by our movement Bachpan Bachao Andolan has directed the state to act promptly and effectively. Yet, trafficking and slavery continue to flourish in India.

And the stories are tragic. We had rescued 13-year-old Malvika (name changed) from Gurgaon. She was trafficked from a village in West Bengal with promises of good wages. Her life was hell after that. In two consecutive homes where she worked as a domestic help, Malvika was treated like a slave with the employers routinely beating her. In both houses, she was raped repeatedly by drivers.

Malvika is lucky that she was rescued and is back with her family. Hundreds of thousands of victims like her have not been as lucky. What can we do in India to stop the barbarity against young girls like Malvika?

For starters, we need a strong law against trafficking. Despite endless debates and repeated pleas by civil society groups, stringent anti-trafficking laws have not been passed by Parliament. Nor have state governments taken meaningful measures to stop this atrocity. It took almost 19 years for India to ratify the ILO conventions that prohibit the worst forms of child labour. Let us not drive hundreds of thousands of innocent children into cruel and miserable lives of slavery by indulging in such unforgivable delays.

We as citizens too need to play a more proactive role by refusing to keep our eyes and ears closed. We must protest and report cases of suspected trafficking victims in our neighbourhoods. That is a moral imperative. Equally important is the need to target the economic roots behind trafficking. It is states like Bihar, West Bengal, Jharkhand, Assam and Odisha that still witness extreme poverty that report the most cases of trafficking.

Apart from vastly improved awareness and law enforcement, what India needs to deal with trafficking and slavery is economic opportunities. When poor families earn enough to feed themselves, they become less vulnerable to criminal gangs. When incomes of poor families improve, their children go to school instead of seeking work. When children go to school, their chances of being trafficked and sold into slavery diminish dramatically.

For 70 years or so, India has not ensured economic security to a large number of its citizens. Of what help is India becoming an economic superpower if hundreds of millions remain in poverty with their children vulnerable to predatory traffickers?

Ziqitza Limited -  helps clear dilemma - To Drive or call an Ambulance in Emergency

At some point in their life, most people will witness or be involved in an accident or medical emergency. Knowing what to do and when you should call the emergency services can potentially save lives.

An ambulance provides transport to a hospital and enables emergency medical technicians (EMTs) to begin medical treatment on arrival, extending treatment through the ride to the medical center. There are times when you may not want to call an ambulance and find a different way to get to the hospital. When in doubt, Dial 108 for an ambulance.The entire service right from a person making a call to the necessary pre-hospital care in the ambulance and taking the victim to the nearest hospital is absolutely free to every citizen of the state. During the trip, EMT provides the victim pre-hospital care to ensure the patient reaches safely to the hospital.

 When should I call an ambulance?

·         The person’s condition appears life-threatening

·         The person’s condition could worsen and become life-threatening on the way to the hospital

·         Moving the person could cause further harm or injury

·         Distance or traffic conditions cause a delay in getting the victim to the hospital

·         The person needs the skills or equipment used by paramedics or emergency medical technicians (EMT)

·         Driving would cause significant delay in getting to the hospital

How to determine if a condition is life threatening?

Ziqitza Limited helps in deciding whether or not to call an ambulance is a decision you’ll have to make based on your best assessment of the situation. Even if you think you can get to the hospital faster in your own vehicle, please remember that the ambulance is equipped to start emergency care as soon as it arrives.

Ziqitza Rajasthan and ZHL Rajasthan share some examples of life-threatening conditions requiring an ambulance. The person:

·         Appears to be having a stroke (think F-A-S-T: Facial droop, Arm weakness, Speech difficulty, Time to call 108 Ambulance)

·         Appears to be having a heart attack

·         Has lost consciousness, is unresponsive, or is not responding appropriately

·         Has a seizure for the first time even if they seem to recover from it later. You should phone an ambulance if someone is having a seizure and the fitting lasts longer than 3 minutes.

·         Is unconscious or unaware of what is going on around them or experiencing weakness, numbness or difficulty speaking.

·         Has a severe injury that is bleeding profusely and you are unable to stop with direct pressure on the wound.

·         Is having a severe allergic reaction

·         Has severe burns

·         Has swallowed something poisonous

·         Has a severe injury that is bleeding profusely and you are unable to stop with direct pressure on the wound.

·         Has taken too much medication on purpose or by accident, including drug misuse or abuse

How to call an Ambulance?

The number to call for an ambulance in the India is call 108, which is operated in association with National Health Mission and State Government by Ziqitza Healthcare Ltd in Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Punjab, Sikkim and Jharkhand.

When calling for an ambulance, do your best to remain calm and speak clearly. Be prepared to:

·         Provide the name of the person having the emergency and what the problem seems to be

·         Share the location information and specific address, if possible

·         Tell the dispatcher where the person is located, such as in the back yard or in the downstairs bedroom

·         Provide the phone number you’re calling from

·         Stay on the phone with the dispatcher in case the dispatcher needs more information

If you witness or are part of a highway emergency, do your best to make note of highway marker numbers and highway toll free emergency number 1033, operated by Ziqitza Healthcare who are supporting NHAI for its Emergency Highway Helpline initiativeacross all the highways in North. After calling 1033 for an emergency help determine which lane and in which direction the accident occurred so you can communicate as clearly as possible with the dispatcher and can help save lives.

"We have also seen that since 'Unlock-1', there is increasing negligence in personal and social behaviour.

SG lashes out at 'armchair intellectuals'

Solicitor General Tushar Mehta complained to the Supreme Court that there are "arm chair intellectuals" acting as "prophets of doom" in the country by spreading negativity and not recognising the "humongous" efforts being made to deal with migrant workers' crisis following the COVID-19-induced lockdown.

A bench of Justices Ashok Bhushan, Sanjay Kishan Kaul and MR Shah, hearing a suo motu case on the miseries faced by migrant workers during the lockdown, was also informed by Mehta, appearing for the Centre, about the steps taken by the government to deal with the crisis.

He said that around one crore migrant workers have been transported due to their native states, but there are some who do not want to shift due to the reopening of the activities.

“Migrants are walking because of anxiety or local level instigation where they are said ‘walk now, trains won't run',” he told the court.

  The SC bench asked Mehta about the confusion over the payment of travel fare of stranded migrant workers and said that migrant workers should not be made to pay for their journey back home.

"What is the normal time? If a migrant is identified, there must be some certainty that he will be shifted out within one week or ten days at most? What is that time? There had been instances where one state sends migrants but at the border another State says we are not accepting the migrants. We need a policy on this," the bench told Mehta.

The bench, questioning him over the travel-fare for the migrant workers, said: "In our country, the middlemen will always be there. But we don't want middlemen to interfere when it comes to payment of fares. There has to be a clear policy as to who will pay for their travel."
