Students have to clear NEET to study medicine abroad

NEW DELHI, FEBURARY 14

Indian students who want to study medicine in a foreign country will now have to compulsorily qualify the National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test (NEET).

“Indian citizens/overseas citizen of India intending to obtain primary medical qualification from any medical institution outside India, on or after May 2018, shall have to mandatorily qualify the NEET for admission to MBBS course abroad,” according to a Health Ministry release issued on Tuesday.

So far only students who wished to study MBBS in India had to clear the common NEET.

“It has come to notice that medical institutions/universities of foreign countries admit Indian students without proper assessment or screening of the students’ academic ability to cope up with medical education with the result that many students fail to qualify the screening test,” the release added.

The Medical Council of India had thus proposed to the Health Ministry that the Screening Test Regulations, 2002, should be amended making it mandatory for candidates to qualify NEET to pursue foreign medical course that have been approved by the ministry.

“The result of NEET shall be deemed to be treated as the eligibility certificate for such persons, provided that such persons fulfils the eligibility criteria for admission to the MBBS course prescribed in the Regulations on Graduate Medical Education, 1997,” the release said.

REGARDING SCREENING TEST FOR (FMGE)
According to, the new rule declared by the Medical Council of India (MCI), all Indian students who wish to study medicine abroad must apply for MCI Eligibility Certificate. The eligibility certificate is a legal proof given by the MCI, that the Medical University which the student attends to study MBBS abroad is authorized by the Medical Council of India. According to the notice, a Citizen of India/Indian National who wishes to pursue medicine outside of India must obtain Eligibility Certificate from the MCI before leaving the country and will not be able to appear for the Screening Test without first obtaining this certificate from the MCI.

The eligibility certificate was mandatory earlier as well but it was discontinued in October 2013. The allotment of eligibility certificates was stopped for the reason being that there was too much of a back-log of issuance of these certificates. Many previous year students had not received their certificates because of the delay in the MCI management system. However, MCI has declared that those students who have already gone abroad to study MBBS in the year 2013-2015 should also apply for the MCI eligibility certificate if they wish to appear for the Foreign Medical Graduates Examination (FMGE) also known as the Medical Council of India Screening Test.

Anatomy

Anatomy is the study of interior parts of living body. Therefore, it can be termed as branch of Biology that helps to gain clear description about each interior organ. Therefore, anatomy is broadly divided into three main sections: Plant anatomy, animal anatomy and human anatomy. In this article we will focus on human anatomy and our service of anatomy assignment help that is provided to Biology students in secondary, college and university level.

Anatomy is mostly confused with physiology, but it must be remembered that anatomy is the study of internal parts of organism whereas physiology is the study of functions of different parts, individually and also in combination with other parts of the system. Anatomy can be divided into two main section: gross anatomy also called macro anatomy and micro anatomy.

Gross anatomy:
The study of interior structure of living organism that can be easily viewed by the naked eyes is termed as gross anatomy. Though earlier dissection was necessary for gross anatomy, but nowadays the invention of different scientific instruments allows study of gross anatomy by making small incision in external body or by affixing medical devices outside the system.

Micro anatomy:
The study of structure of tissues and cells that makes particular organ is termed as micro anatomy. Study of tissue is termed as histology whereas that of cell is termed as cytology. To conduct microscopic study, different types of microscopic instruments are required. Like simple microscope, electron microscope, compound microscope etc. Moreover small sample of tissues or cells from specific areas help to conduct study on micro anatomy of particular organ.

Anatomy is again sub-classified according to the systems in living bod. Some of them are briefly described in the section below:

Digestive system:
Study of organs that is involved in digestion, absorption and excretion of food come under digestive system. Organs that can be listed under digestive system starts from mouth and ends in intestine. Know more about Digestive system

Immune system:
Immune system is also termed as defense system of human body. The organs that make up immune system provide protection against infections, viruses, fungi, bacteria that can enter human body and disturb the normal mechanism. Know more about Immune system

Integumentary system:
The organs present as the outer covering of the body and are exposed to environmental conditions make up integumentary system. Hairs, nails, skin etc. comes under integumentary system. Know more about Integumentary system

Respiratory system:
The organs that are involved in the process of respiration can be studied under respiratory system. Three main parts of respiratory system are airway, lungs and muscles.

Skeletal system:
The anatomical study of bones and joints is done in skeletal system. Hence Skeletal system protects, support, and attaches different organs of the body. The anatomy of skeletal system is broadly classified into axial skeletal system and appendicular skeletal system. Axial skeleton consist of 80 bones whereas appendicular skeleton is made of 126 bones that are present in different parts of the body. Know more about Skeletal system

There are many other important system in human body like

Circulatory system
Excretory system
Urinary system
Endocrine system
Muscular system
Male reproductive system
Female reproductive system
Nervous system

This is a brief overview of information related to FDA's approval of expanded device indication to market this product. See the links below to the Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data (SSED) and product labeling for more complete information on this product, its indications for use, and the basis for FDA's approval of expanded device indication.

Product Name: PreveLeak Surgical Sealant
PMA Applicant: Mallinckrodt Pharma IP Trading DAC
Address: Damastown Industrial Estate, Mulhuddart, Dublin 15, Ireland
Approval Date: December 21, 2017
Approval Letter:https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/cdrh_docs/pdf10/P100030S008a.pdf

What is it? PreveLeak Surgical Sealant (PreveLeak) is a medical sealant used to help stop leaks that are formed in tissue, blood vessels or grafts (artificial blood vessels) during the surgical repair of the circulatory system. PreveLeak is a liquid made of two components, purified bovine serum albumim (BSA) and polyaldehyde. The two components are contained in separate barrels of a syringe. Upon mixing these two components, a flexible material is formed.


How does it work? During surgery, a health care provider pushes the plunger of the PreveLeak syringe causing the two components to mix together. The resulting mixture is applied to seal holes and stop bleeding where heart tissue, blood vessels or grafts have been stitched together.

When is it used? PreveLeak is used during surgical procedures involving the blood vessels and tissues around the heart when stitching alone is not enough to stop bleeding.

What will it accomplish? PreveLeak helps to seal leaks around stitches in tissue, blood vessels or grafts to stop bleeding during vascular and open heart surgery. In a clinical study, immediate sealing was achieved in > 95% surgical procedures using PreveLeak.

When should it not be used? PreveLeak should not be used:

In patients with known allergies to the device materials;
On the inside of blood vessels; and
To stop bleeding in the brain or spinal cord.

Picture of the Abdomen
Human Anatomy
By Matthew Hoffman, MD
Listen
Illustration of the human abdominal organs

The abdomen (commonly called the belly) is the body space between the thorax (chest) and pelvis. The diaphragm forms the upper surface of the abdomen. At the level of the pelvic bones, the abdomen ends and the pelvis begins.

The abdomen contains all the digestive organs, including the stomach, small and large intestines, pancreas, liver, and gallbladder. These organs are held together loosely by connecting tissues (mesentery) that allow them to expand and to slide against each other. The abdomen also contains the kidneys and spleen.

Many important blood vessels travel through the abdomen, including the aorta, inferior vena cava, and dozens of their smaller branches. In the front, the abdomen is protected by a thin, tough layer of tissue called fascia. In front of the fascia are the abdominal muscles and skin. In the rear of the abdomen are the back muscles and spine.

Abdomen Conditions

Peritonitis: Inflammation of the covering of the abdominal structures, causing rigidity and severe pain. Usually, this is due to a ruptured or infected abdominal organ.
Acute abdomen: A medical phrase doctors use to suggest that peritonitis or some other emergency is present and surgery is likely needed.
Appendicitis: Inflammation of the appendix, in the lower right colon. Usually, an inflamed appendix must be removed by surgery.
Cholecystitis: Inflammation of the gallbladder, causing severe right-sided abdominal pain. A gallstone blocking the duct exiting the gallbladder is usually responsible.
Dyspepsia: The feeling of an upset stomach or indigestion. Dyspepsia can result from benign or more serious conditions.
Constipation: Having fewer than three bowel movements per week. Diet and exercise may help but many people will need to see their health care providers.
Gastritis: Inflammation of the stomach, often causing nausea and/or pain. Gastritis can be caused by alcohol, NSAIDs, H. pylori infection, or other factors.
Peptic ulcer disease: Ulcers are erosions and peptic refers to acid. Peptic ulcers are ulcers in the stomach and duodenum (the first part of the small intestine). The usual cause is either an infection with H. pylori or taking anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen.
Intestinal obstruction: A single area of the small or large intestine can become blocked or the entire intestine may stop working. Vomiting and abdominal distension are symptoms.
Gastroparesis: The stomach empties slowly due to nerve damage from diabetes or other conditions. Nausea and vomiting are symptoms.
Pancreatitis: Inflammation of the pancreas. Alcohol and gallstones are the most common causes of pancreatitis. Other causes include drugs and trauma; about 10% to 15% of cases are from unknown causes.
Hepatitis: Inflammation of the liver, usually due to viral infection. Drugs, alcohol, or immune system problems can also cause hepatitis.
Cirrhosis: Scarring of the liver caused by chronic inflammation. Heavy drinking or chronic hepatitis are the most common causes.
Ascites: Abdominal fluid buildup often caused by cirrhosis. Ascites may cause the abdomen to protrude impressively.
Abdominal hernia: A weakening or gap in the abdominal fascia allows a section of the intestine to protrude.
Abdominal distension: Swelling of the abdomen, usually due to an increased amount of intestinal gas.
Abdominal aortic aneurysm: A weakening of the aorta's wall creates a balloon-like expansion of the vessel that grows over years. If abdominal aortic aneurysms grow large enough, they may burst.
