What is Scalp Cooling

Image
The treatment for cancer – chemotherapy – has a common side effect that can seriously cause emotional distress and even depression among patients. That side effect is alopecia, more commonly known as hair loss. For many, hair loss becomes an ever-constant reminder that they have cancer. It affects a patient’s body image and self-confidence and can lead to social isolation as there is generally a stigma attached to it. No matter how prepared a patient may feel, for chemo treatment, seeing clumps of their hair on their hands after a bath or on their pillows delivers a big emotional blow. To effectively manage chemotherapy-induced alopecia, many forms of intervention have been in use. In the 1970s, a method called scalp hypothermia or scalp cooling   was used to help improve hair loss in many patients. The technique works by keeping the patient’s scalp cold during the chemo infusion and for some time after the chemo drugs have been given. The Cooling Caps There have been several techn...

Reasons why Laboratories Need Pharmacy Fridge

Image
Manufacturers have designed these pharmaceutical-grade devices to hold biological material. The devices offer various benefits over traditional domestic refrigeration units.  Unlike domestic refrigerators, medical-grade freezers contain a microprocessor-based technology that accurately monitors temperatures. They employ sensor systems (such as thermocouples, temperature sensors, & thermistors) that monitor the internal temperatures. The pharmacies must keep temperature-sensitive therapeutic items in a purpose-built refrigeration system developed and manufactured particularly for therapeutic goods. It comprises purpose-built refrigerated units incorporated inside an automatic dispensing system. The QCPP Compatible Dispensary Refrigerator list details refrigerators that meet the QCPP compliance criteria. These freezers would be on the Australian Registry for Therapeutics Goods (ARTG) and are Cold Chain Test Centre (CCTC) certified refrigerators. Reasons to use Pharmacy Fridges i...

Innovative Medical Devices to Aid Modern Day Treatment

Image
Advancements in medical science have undoubtedly opened doors to many treatments. One crucial achievement of medical science is the feasibility of segregating blood components into red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma. Thereafter, each of these components can be transfused to the patient as per the requirement. However, several  medical devices  are required to store the drugs, patient samples, and more. Other than this, medical devices for treating cancer patients are also being developed to offer better treatment to the patients. Laboratory refrigerator for platelet storage Like any other blood components, platelets are also transfused to patients with low platelet count. Platelets play a crucial role in blood clotting. As soon as an individual bleeds, platelets clot that area to stop the blood outflow. However, if a person has a low platelet count, he or she would be at a major risk of suffering from extreme bleeding, and in a severe situation; it could...
