Neurology : Brown-Sequard Syndrome

This really brings me back to my best memory 3 years ago. Maybe Dr.Irina is now not with us, but we are having a lot of Neurologists, and hopefully they are able to treat our 'multiple lesions' that we suffered a few days ago....

International, please?

Alhamdulillah, I already passed my medicine exam today and I feel so 'free' to study for my next postings exam in Neurology and O&G. Today's morning as usual with exam syndrome - NV!

I can't hold nausea & vomiting till they come to their optimum attack of severe tremor and only after that with post-exam syndrome - Sleeping headache. Huhu~

Today, I learnt something new in medicine - its exam was just like clerking a patient! It was too horrible indeed to have face-to-face conversation with Dr.Shumina (not very sure her name), and she is well-known Hepatologist.

Every questions that stated on my exam ticket, never miss to be followed by her questions : 'What is international standard? What is international classification? Dan paling tak tahan: Do you know, in Malaysia they usually use....."

Yes, this is what I know about medicine. Improvement makes better to gain better knowledges. Not just to sit in the class, borrow friend's notes, then answers, and that's all.

p/s : Almost complete to download all CPGs! Thanks to MOH =)

It's High Time Malaysian Doctors Ditch Neckties

The MMA made the call a few years back and then the DG was quoted to say:

…the policy of requiring doctors to wear their white coats, shirts and neckties would not change unless there was a “body of evidence” which proved that neckties caused infections to spread. It is a long established policy that we have had since Merdeka. Doctors must maintain their dignity and dress properly,” he said.

A study by Jimbo et al shows that there is indeed a High prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) on Malaysian doctors’ neckties.

We discovered that more than half (52%) of neckties worn by doctors were contaminated with Staphylococcus and out of these, 62% of them were identified as MRSA. In contrast, none of the student’s ties were contaminated with MRSA. Due to the high prevalence of staphylococcus detected on doctors’ neckties, we recommend that health care workers do not wear neckties.

So DG and MOH – perhaps the “dress code” for doctors should change now that there is local evidence?
