On the 4th of March 2024, the global community came together to observe World Obesity Day, shedding light on one of the most pressing health issues of our time. Two such activities took place in Puducherry, India, engaging both school children and young adults.

Activity 1:

Those who actively participated and interpreted their BMI were acknowledged with pens, encouraging them to take charge of their health journey.

Activity 2:
Inspiring Young Adults towards Healthier Living
In the afternoon, the Manakula Vinayagar Institute of Technology (MIT) witnessed a vibrant gathering of approximately 200 young adult students eager to listen to the discourse on obesity. Professor Sumitra, representing MIT, extended a warm welcome to the attendees, setting the stage for a session led by Dr. S. Girija, a Professor of General Medicine from Sri Manakula Vinayagar Medical College and Hospital. Dr. Girija shed light on the global prevalence of obesity, emphasizing its impact not only on individuals but also on society as a whole. Stressing the importance of healthy eating habits and regular physical activity, the speaker inspired the audience to adopt sustainable lifestyle changes.

Skills development programme “Enhancing IV cannulation technique”

Date: 1,2,3rd february 2024
Time: 01.30 pm to 04.00 pm
Venue: Simulation centre
Department: General Medicine

Skill enhancement for interns-2024 – IV cannulation technique. A skill enhancement activity, for interns was conducted by faculty of General Medicine on IV cannulation technique on 01.02.2024 to 03.02.2024 around 110 interns participated in the programme . A checklist for assessment was used to ensure that the interns are meeting the necessary criteria and performing the technique correctly. E-certificates were given to those who successfully completed the program

The following are some of the recommendations from the participants to enhance such programs:

Feedback

1. Regular Practice Sessions: Participants emphasized the need for regular practice sessions, both on mannequins and real patients, to build confidence and proficiency in skills like IV cannulation.

2. Incorporating more hands-on demonstrations and simulations, including videos can help interns better understand and retain the techniques taught.

3. Time Management: Some participants suggested allocating more time for assessment and practice, ensuring that interns have sufficient opportunity to master the skills being taught.

4. Diverse Skill Set: Consider adding other related procedures such as ascetic tapping, ABG, ECG, urinary catheterization, and tracheal intubation to future programs, broadening interns skill sets and preparedness for clinical practice.

5. Small Group Sizes: To facilitate better interaction and individualized attention, it may be beneficial to have smaller groups of interns for each instructor during training sessions.

6. Clear Explanation of Difficulties: Instructors should provide detailed explanations, especially regarding difficult aspects of procedures like IV cannulation, to help interns overcome challenges effectively.
