Abstract:
Postgraduate Medical Education (PGME) and specialist care made a late beginning in developing countries and has progressed quite slowly, compared to the developed world. Historically, medical graduates in developing countries desiring to pursue PGME had to travel to Western centers to acquire specialist qualifications; and after having spent a significant time period it became difficult for them to return from those settings, resulting in “brain drain” from the developing nations and a loss of national resources. The status of overall medical education in Pakistan was dismal at the time of its independence in 1947. Pakistan inherited only a few undergraduate medical colleges, and none offered any postgraduate qualification. The majority of doctors seeking postgraduate education preferred to go to England and the United States. In this situation, the College of Physicians and Surgeons, Pakistan (CPSP) was established in 1962 as an autonomous corporate body to cater to the needs of PGME and to provide specialists for the health care needs of the country. The college started offering fellowship and membership programs in different fields of medicine and dentistry — a hallmark of the College System of PGME, which focuses primarily upon rigorous clinical training. It has succeeded in achieving high standards in PGME and specialization, making its qualifications at par with the institutions of the developed world. This paper describes the policies and strategies adopted by the College to earn recognition for its qualifications, both within the country and in the international community.

Objective: To study the effects of mobile phone induced Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) on testis of young mice. Settings: Department of Anatomy, College of Physicians and Surgeons Pakistan, Regional Centre, Islamabad. Period: January to June, 2008. Study Design: Experimental animal study. Materials & Methods: This study was conducted on two groups of young BALB-c (6 weeks of age) purchased from National Institute of Health Islamabad. These animals were divided into two groups control and treated, each consisting of twenty animals. The treated group was exposed for one month to mobile phone induced EMFs by placing a mobile phone in the floor of the cage. This phone was rung upon from any other line or cell phone twice daily for 15 minutes. The control group was kept under identical conditions except for mobile phone on the cage floor. Results and observations: Histological comparison of testis of the both group animals showed a significant increase, in the number of tubules with sperms in the lumen, increased sub capsular congestion of vessels, presence of vacuolation and giant cells in germinal epithelium and abnormal cells in the lumen of seminiferous tubules of the treated group. Conclusion: The results indicate altered testicular morphology of the EMFs exposed mice.

Abstract:
Objectives: Determine the frequency of fungal infections in nasal polypi. Study Design: Cross sectional study. Setting: Histopathology Department at Shaikh Zayed Hospital Lahore. Period: Six months from 12/2/2015 to 12/8/2015. Material & Methods: Two hundred surgical resections/biopsies using 95% confidence level, with 7% margin of error were collected. Formalin fixed specimens of patients of both genders and 10- 60 years of age with nasal polyps received after surgical procedure in department of ENT. Grossing and processing was done. Hematoxyin & Eosin stained sections were examined by two consultant Histopathologists independently. The presence of fungal hyphae was confirmed by PAS and Silver stains. The study was approved by College of Physicians & Surgeons Pakistan. All the data was entered and analyzed by using SPSS version 20. Results: Out of 200 patients all the patients showed the prescence of inflammatory cells in polyps (100%) with predominantly eosinophils in their submucosa (82%). Fungus was present in 48 cases (24%) most of them were in the age group of 42-57 years (13%) and 31(15.5%) patients having BMI <30 and 17(8.5%) having BMI >30 were positive for fungus.30 cases were of Aspergillus (62.5%) and rest 8 were of Mucor (37.5%). The fungus positive cases were more in males (13.5%). 160 of the cases were of unilateral polyps (80%) and 40 were of bilateral polypi (20%). Only 8% of the patients having diabetes had fungal infection. Conclusion: Hence, the frequency of fungal infection in nasal polypi is low with Aspergillus being the commonest pathogen affecting males predominantly.

Abstract:
The common public health problem in thromboembolic disorders (TED) are venous thromboembolism (VTE) and stroke caused by Atrial Fibrillation (AF).1 The main stay of treatment among oral anticoagulants are Vit K antagonist (VKAs) like warfarin and acenocoumarin, warfarin has been the most commonly used drug particularly in Pakistan. However now Non Vitamin K dependent oral anticoagulants (NOACs) such as dabigatrin, rivaroxaban and apixaban have come in to use.2 Till now VKAs are most extensively used in developing countries like India3 & Pakistan because of their effects can easily be reversed, and they are safe in impaired renal function besides being cost effective. The problems encountered with VKAs relate to dietary patterns in the region resulting in drug interaction, over usage of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and most important the lack of lab facilities to monitor international normalized ratio (INR), and finally the lack of awareness of target INR levels by physicians & patients. Oral anticoagulants are the main stay in the prevention of stroke in patients with valvular and non valvular Atrial Fibrillation.4 The preferred oral anticoagulants with mechanical heart valves and severe mitral stenosis are the VKAs while for others stroke risk stratification is done by CHADS2-VASC score.5 If CHADS2-VASC score is of 3 in non valvular AF NOACS can be initiated. The main challenge for stroke prevention is in pregnant women with AF who have either mechanical valve or severe valvular disease (Mitral Valve disease) in adjusting VKAs dose. Low molecular weight Heparin (LMWH) is considered to be safe option6 in first trimester and before delivery. The recommended dose of warfarin in women with or without mechanical valves is ≤ 5 mg/day throughout pregnancy, however during the first trimester dose adjusted LMWH is given to avoid teratogenic effects. Warfarin is continued in second and third trimesters and I/V unfractionated Heparin / LMWH in the peripartum period.7 The gynecologists being primary care givers should be trained in this respect to avoid any kind of complications. Another problem is to bridge antithrombin therapy in VHD patient schedule for surgery. The clinicians deciding factor for temporary stoppage of VKAs therapy is the type of heart valve prosthesis.8 Surgeon and anesthetist posted in rural health center in Pakistan should be provided management guidelines in the form of small printed cards in simple language. Knowledge of management of prosthetic valve complication9 and stroke management10 needs to be addressed especially in public hospitals. In conclusion vitamin K antagonists such as warfarin is most commonly used in the Pakistan for valid reasons as mentioned. Awareness of PT/INR level to a therapeutic range to be made to patients and physicians by establishing anticoagulation clinics in all public hospitals throughout the country. NOACs to be initiated with appropriate use of CHADS2-VASC score with their appropriate indication and contraindication. Information leaflets on Anticogulation benefits, complications and interactions should be provided in local languages to the patients and they should keep a record of their INR values. Efforts should be made by various agencies in particular Ministry of NHS TO ensure uninterrupted availability of anticoagulants and cheap lab tests. Although international evidence based guidelines do exist, they do not address specific goals required by ours patients. To enhance knowledge of our clinician regarding Vit K antagonist and NOACS its important to set local guidelines for various case-based scenarios. References Amin A, Marrs JC.

Abstract:
In recent years, patient-centredness has become a central focus in improving health care quality. In 2010, the Canadian Medical Association (CMA) launched a four-year action plan aimed at transforming Canada’s health care through a framework aimed at creating a culture of patient-centred care, accountability and responsibility. Several of Canada’s provincial governments proceeded to launch patient-centred action plans, including the Government of Ontario’s “Patients First” framework, which prioritizes patient engagement and increased transparency. As an example of how organizations are putting these values into practice, the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO)’s transparency initiative, which aims to make more physician-specific information available to the public in order to help patients make informed decisions about their health care, was examined. This thesis asks how physicians and members of the public feel that the transparency initiative aligns with the CPSO’s public interest mandate. Using discourse analysis, 226 responses by physicians, members of the public and organizations on a discussion forum in the Policy Consultations section of the CPSO’s website were analyzed in order to identify the main themes in arguments for or against increased transparency. The results show that physicians and members of the public tended to differ in their views on the purposes and probable outcomes of the CPSO’s transparency initiative. The majority of physicians worried about patients’ ability to accurately understand and utilize the information being provided to them, and the negative impact that this might have on individual physicians and on the physician-patient relationship more broadly. Most members of the public had a more positive outlook on the potential for transparency to build public trust, help patients become informed and engaged decision-makers and improve patient safety.

Abstract:
The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO) recently published its revised policy, “Physicians and the Ontario Human Rights Code,” which establishes professional guidelines pertaining to conscientious objection. Insofar as it compels complicit action on the part of objecting physicians, the policy has engendered controversy within religious, legal and bioethical communities in Canada. To provide insight into this debate, my dissertation examines the CPSO's guidelines through the lenses of Roman Catholicism, Canadian law and the ethical framework of principlism. Whereas analysis reveals tension between the CPSO's position and the Roman Catholic doctrines on conscience and cooperation in evil, general consistency exists between the policy statement and the treatment of conscience and religion within Canadian jurisprudence. Through the lens of principlism, consistency between the policy statement and the principles of respect for autonomy, beneficence and justice is punctured by ambiguity between the CPSO's position and the principle of nonmaleficence, as well as conflict between the guidelines and respect for physician autonomy.
Le «College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario» (CPSO) a récemment publié une version révisée de la politique “Physicians and the Ontario Human Rights Code,” qui établit les lignes directrices professionnelles portant sur l'objection de conscience. Dans la mesure où elle exige une action de la part des médecins, la politique a engendré une controverse à travers les communautés religieuses, légales et bioéthiques canadiennes. Afin de donner un aperçu de ce débat, ma dissertation examine les lignes directrices du CPSO selon les perspectives du Catholicisme Romain, de la loi Canadienne et du cadre éthique principisme. Bien que certaines analyses révèlent des tensions entre la position du CPSO et la doctrine Catholique Romaine sur la conscience et la coopération en mal, il existe une cohérence générale entre la politique et le traitement de la conscience ainsi que de la religion dans la jurisprudence canadienne. Dans l'optique du principisme, la constance entre l'affirmation de la politique et les principes du respect de l'autonomie, de la bienfaisance et de la justice est ponctuée par une ambiguïté entre la position du CPSO et le principe de la non malfaisance, de même qu'un conflit entre les lignes directrices et le respect de l'autonomie des médecins.

Abstract:
The Royal College of Physicians was founded by royal charter of King Henry VIII in 1518. For nearly 500 years it has engaged in a wide range of activities dedicated to its overall aim of upholding and improving standards of medical practice. The examination for the Membership of the Royal College of Physicians (MRCP) (London) was first set in 1859. The Royal College of Physicians (Edinburgh) and the Faculty of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow introduced their own professional examinations in 1881 and 1886 respectively. A need to have a unified membership examination throughout the United Kingdom (UK) was identified in the late 1960s, following which the first joint examination took place in October 1968. The MRCP(UK) subsequently developed into the current internationally recognized three-part examination. From 2001, the five-station PACES (Practical Assessment of Clinical Examination Skills) examination was introduced, replacing the traditional long case, short cases and viva format. The rationale for this change was to standardize the candidate experience, to permit direct observation of candidate–patient interaction throughout the examination, and to place added emphasis on the assessment of communication skills. The MRCP(UK) format evolved further in 2009. In response to the development of competency-based training and assessment, the key components of the examination were redefined as seven ‘core clinical skills’: A) Physical examination B) Identifying physical signs C) Clinical communication skills D) Differential diagnosis E) Clinical judgement F) Managing patients’ concerns G) Maintaining patient welfare. Each ‘core clinical skill’ is assessed at several different stations of the PACES examination and the marks for each ‘skill’ are integrated. A minimum pass mark for each ‘core clinical skill’ was introduced to ensure that candidates who scored poorly in one ‘core clinical skill’ area could not pass the examination by scoring highly in another skill (a compensatory marking system had existed prior to 2009). Furthermore, the requirement to obtain a minimum overall test score has been maintained. At the time of writing this book, a score of 130/172 was required to pass.

Abstract:
The years around 1830, as just described, were a turning point in the movement to create a more systematic and uniform approach to the training of doctors. For the next quarter-century, a battle royal raged in the transatlantic countries between those seeking to create a common standard of medical training for all practitioners and those who defended the many-tiered systems of preparing healers that prevailed in most of them. At stake were such important issues as the care of the rural populations, largely unserved by university-trained physicians, the ever larger role claimed for science and academic study in educating doctors, the place of organized medical groups in decision making about professional training, and the role to be played by government in setting standards of medical education. In Great Britain, the conflict over change centered on the efforts of reformers, mainly liberal Whigs, apothecary-surgeons, and Scottish teachers and practitioners, to gain a larger measure of recognition for the rights of general practitioners to ply their trade freely throughout the nation. Ranged against them were the royal colleges, the traditional universities, and other defenders of the status quo. Particularly sensitive in Britain was the entrenched power of the royal colleges of medicine and surgery— “the most conservative bodies in the medical world,” S. W. F. Holloway called them—which continued to defend the importance of a liberal, gentlemanly education for medicine, as well as their right to approve the qualifications for practice of all other practitioners except apothecaries. Members of the Royal College of Physicians of London, the most elite of all the British medical bodies, were divided by class into a small number of fellows, almost all graduates of Oxford and Cambridge, and a larger number of licentiates, who, though permitted to practice, took no part in serious policy discussions and could not even use such college facilities as the library or the museum. “The Fellows,” claimed a petition signed by forty-nine London physicians in 1833, “have usurped all the corporate power, offices, privileges, and emoluments attached to the College.”

Abstract:
Anaesthesia is a relatively young specialty by comparison with its counterparts. William Morton administered the first anaesthetic in 1846 in Boston, Massachusetts, and the Royal College of Anaesthetists was cleaved from the Royal College of Surgeons in 1948. Now anaesthetists form the largest group of hospital-based doctors. Anaesthetists are highly trained physicians whose role is by no means limited to the operating theatre. They oversee the patient journey through the peri-operative period, i.e. preoperative assessment and optimization of the sick surgical patient, ensuring safe intra-operative provision of anaesthesia as well as care of the patient in the early post-operative period. Anaesthetic skills are also requested during management of the critically ill in the Emergency Department, during the care of the parturient mother in providing analgesic, anaesthetic, and intensive care input, and increasingly in the pre-hospital environment. Anaesthetists have an important role in the practice of intensive care where complementary experience in medicine is useful. Other roles of the anaesthetist include provision of acute and chronic pain services. and subspecialty interests include regional, paediatric, cardiothoracic, vascular, and neuroanaesthesia. Anaesthesia is a highly practical specialty, with a strong emphasis on the basic sciences underpinning its practice. Physiology and pharmacology exert their effects with immediacy; therefore, an affinity for these disciplines is desirable. Anaesthetists need to be able to assimilate knowledge of the basic sciences with skills in history and examination, in order to plan for, and respond to, patient needs. In answering these questions, you will be asked to use similar skills.
