Group Medical Director, Kauvery Hospitals, India

Dear colleagues,

We bring you a totally MIND BLOWING edition of the KAUVERIAN on 08Apr25!

We feature ELEVEN DEBUT AUTHORS!

This is the MISSION of the KAUVERIAN – to attract authors presenting their work!

Topics and mode of presentation also are diverse in this issue.

Authors are diverse too; they include consultants including cardiac and neurosurgeons, an ophthalmologist poet, a Dr NB Resident, a successful DNB Resident PUBLISHING his thesis (only the fourth to be published from an institution that runs several PG programs) and a DMO in Cardiology

” Hot” topics include Sepsis prevention in the ICU, SSI, Pharmaco – Microbiology, Veno Occlusive surgery, Molecular diagnosis in Infectious Diseases, OSA and Pul Embolism.

Three Kauvery Post Graduate Lectures feature here!

One of them is a POD CAST, yet another novelty in this issue.

An ever important review on IV Fluid Therapy comes from a mellow but meticulous Consultant.

At last, another KAUVERIAN DREAM comes true in this issue.

LABORATORY MEDICINE basks in the lime light. Laboratory Heads at two Kauvery Hospitals write in this issue and now histopathological diagnostic images have begun to regularly appear in the Journal.

Ultrashort case reports highlight the prowess and perfection of cardiac and neurosurgeons and interventional radiologists. Videos illustrate their good work.

To be breathless is a terrible feeling, where every breath is a struggle. Two clinical Pharmacists present our FOURTH Clinical Audit on the status of Guideline Directed Medical Treatment for HEART FAILURE at our hospitals.

The Lancet lamented about the ‘global apathy’ that prevails in the medical management of Heart Failure, a disease that has a worse prognosis than advanced cancer.

We close with the journal club, poems and a chapter from the book by Dr. Yashwant that asks us:

” Doctor, Are you Happy in Life?!

Do read, and write for, the KAUVERIAN
