Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery We are pleased to share an important milestone in the development of advanced laparoscopic surgical services at New Leaf Medical Complex. Dr. Efeson Thomas successfully performed a laparoscopic left hemicolectomy on a 73-year-old male patient who presented with intermittent abdominal pain and loss of appetite.Colonoscopy and CT imaging revealed a left-sided colonic mass. The patient subsequently underwent laparoscopic left hemicolectomy with side-to-side stapled anastomosis. The procedure was completed successfully using a minimally invasive approach, and the patient had a smooth postoperative recovery. This case marks another step forward in expanding laparoscopic colorectal surgery at New Leaf Medical Complex We congratulate Dr. Efeson Thomas and the entire multidisciplinary team on this achievement ☎️ለበለጠ መረጃ እና ቀጠሮ ለማስያዝ: በ8565 | +251 990 46 66 66 ይደውሉ። 📍 አድራሻ: ለቡ ሙዚቃ ሰፈር 🔗 ገፆቻችንን ይቀላቀሉ: telegram/ TikTok/facebook/website/instagram ኒው ሊፍ ሜዲካል ኮምፕሌክስ እዚህ ተስፋ አለ !!

So many women tell me, "My husband found it." A healthy relationship brings many blessings, and an early detected breast lump can be one of them. Do you know the simple steps of breast self-examination? They take only a few minutes at home and can help you find a lump early. And "Early detection saves lives!" Don't take your body for granted. Give it a regular "preventive maintenance," just as you do for your car.

Suspected Tramadol Toxicity in a Patient With Chronic Kidney Disease: Safe Use and Clinical Warning Signs A young woman with+3
Suspected Tramadol Toxicity in a Patient With Chronic Kidney Disease: Safe Use and Clinical Warning Signs A young woman with known chronic kidney disease (CKD) was seen at a health center because of severe pain, frequent crying, emotional distress, intermittent confusion, and episodes of reduced responsiveness. Her mother and friend reported that she regularly used 600–800 mg daily. This presentation was concerning for suspected tramadol toxicity, although other causes of altered mental status also needed to be excluded. The reported use of 600–800 mg per day is above the usual adult maximum of 400 mg per day. In severe renal impairment, tramadol dosing must be reduced; the usual recommended maximum is approximately 200 mg per day, with longer intervals between doses. Tramadol and its active metabolite are substantially eliminated through the kidneys. When kidney function is reduced, the drug may accumulate and remain active for longer. This can increase the risk of excessive sleepiness, dizziness, confusion, delirium, reduced consciousness, seizures, and respiratory depression. Therefore, the patient’s intermittent nonresponsiveness and altered mentation were important clinical warning signs and should not be attributed only to emotional distress or “bad behavior.” Other possible causes should also be considered, including uremia, low blood glucose, electrolyte abnormalities, infection, seizure with a postictal state, stroke, pregnancy-related illness, other drug use, and primary psychiatric illness. Serotonin syndrome should be suspected if altered mental status is accompanied by fever, sweating, agitation, tremor, hyperreflexia, clonus, vomiting, or diarrhea, particularly when tramadol is combined with antidepressants or other serotonergic medicines. Tramadol should be used only after assessment of the pain diagnosis, kidney function, medication history, and risk of dependence. It should not be combined with alcohol, benzodiazepines, sleeping tablets, sedatives, or other opioids unless specifically prescribed and closely monitored. Such combinations can increase sedation and breathing problems. Long-term or high-dose tramadol use can cause tolerance, physical dependence, withdrawal symptoms, and addiction. A patient who feels unable to function without tramadol requires a respectful clinical assessment, not blame. The medicine should not be increased without review, and it should not be stopped suddenly without medical supervision when dependence is suspected. Any patient taking tramadol who develops severe drowsiness, confusion, slow breathing, seizures, blue lips, or failure to respond requires urgent hospital evaluation. Initial assessment should include airway and breathing, oxygen saturation, blood glucose, vital signs, level of consciousness, kidney function, electrolytes, electrocardiogram, medication review, and investigation for other causes. Safe tramadol use requires the lowest effective dose, renal-dose adjustment, avoidance of dangerous drug combinations, regular monitoring, and early referral when toxicity or dependence is suspected.

I am writing to respectfully raise a concern regarding the prolonged delay in issuing professional licenses to health professionals who applied through the Oromia health professional licensing system. We successfully completed the required professional licensing examination more than six weeks ago. Following the instruction that we could apply for our professional licenses, we submitted our applications. However, many of us have now been waiting for more than one month without receiving our licenses. What is particularly concerning is that some health professionals from other regions have reportedly received their licenses within a few days of application. In addition, some applicants in Oromia who submitted their applications after us have already received their licenses, while earlier applicants are still waiting without clear information about the reason for the delay. As newly qualified health professionals, this delay is having a serious impact on us. We have spent many years in education and professional training, including demanding clinical internships, exit examinations, the COC/licensing examination, and other requirements. At this stage, the professional license is essential for us to begin our careers and apply for available employment opportunities. Continued delays may cause us to miss legitimate job opportunities despite having completed all the required qualifications. We fully understand that the responsible office may have administrative procedures and a high workload. However, we respectfully request that the concerned authority: 1. Clarify the reason for the prolonged delay in issuing our licenses. 2. Review the pending applications, particularly those submitted earlier. 3. Provide a clear update on when the pending licenses are expected to be issued. 4. Take the necessary measures to resolve the backlog as soon as possible. We are not raising this concern to blame any individual or office. We are simply requesting a fair, transparent, and timely solution so that qualified health professionals can begin serving the community and pursuing employment opportunities without unnecessary administrative barriers. We kindly ask the responsible body to give this matter urgent attention and communicate a clear resolution to the affected applicants. Thank you for your attention and consideration. Respectfully, Concerned newly licensed health professionals By Mohammed Ahmed Pharmacy Graduate @HakimEthio

From Practice to Publication: The Unseen Researcher in Every Health Professional In the engine room of our health system the clinics, labs, and community posts, there is a constant hum of adaptation and problem-solving. We call it "daily practice." I call it "undocumented research." For too long, we've accepted a false divide: the "academic" who creates knowledge and the "practitioner" who applies it. This misses the most critical point: The frontline is where theory meets reality, and reality often wins. The best research topics don't come from textbooks. The most transformative research, the kind that truly closes the "know-do gap," isn't born in a university. It's born from the practice. * It's the pharmacist who notices why patients misunderstand adherence instructions for a specific drug. * It's the lab technician who identifies a systematic bottleneck in the testing workflow that no administrator can see. * It's the midwife who understands why community trust in a specific protocol is failing. This isn't just about empowering physicians and nurses. It’s about recognizing that the entire health workforce holds critical, specialized data. The health officer, the radiographer, the nurses.... they each see a part of the system that others cannot. Without their insights, our "evidence-based solutions" are incomplete. Empowering these frontline experts to answer the questions they are uniquely positioned to ask: * System Design: Why do our workflows create burnout, and how can we redesign them for both resilience and better outcomes? * Digital Integration: Why are new EMR systems or telemedicine tools really failing to gain traction on the ground? (Hint: Ask the end-user, not just the manager). * Patient-Centered Equity: What "small" cultural, linguistic, or economic factors are the critical determinants of a patient's health journey? * Quality & Safety: How do our official protocols actually function after-hours, when we're understaffed, or when the supply chain breaks? To provide the mentorship and modular tools that turn frontline observation into formal evidence. If you’re a health professional with a question that keeps coming up in your daily work, that pattern you can't ignore—that is not a distraction… that’s your research topic. Let’s turn practice into evidence. Let’s make frontline wisdom visible. Nesredin Ahmed Lecturer at Haramaya University College of Health and Medical Sciences @HakimEthio

"What If the ‘Life-Saving’ Fluid Bolus Is Actually Killing Our Children?" Would You Believe Me If I Told You? Imagine this: A
"What If the ‘Life-Saving’ Fluid Bolus Is Actually Killing Our Children?" Would You Believe Me If I Told You? Imagine this: A mother carries her two-year-old daughter into a clinic in Harar, Gondar, or Hawassa. The child is burning with fever, breathing fast, her hands are cold, her pulse is weak. She barely opens her eyes. You’ve seen this before. We’ve been taught—by textbooks, by senior doctors, by global guidelines—that this child is in shock. And that shock must be treated with fluids—fast, large amounts of IV fluid—right away. So you give her a fluid bolus : 20mL/kg of saline, pushed quickly through the vein. You feel you’ve done the right thing. You’ve followed the rules. You’ve acted fast—just like Nelson’s Pediatrics told you to. But six hours later, she dies. Now imagine this: In the next bed, another child—same age, same fever, same cold hands, same fast breathing—does not get a bolus. Instead, she gets gentle maintenance fluids, artesunate for malaria, antibiotics, and close watching. She lives. This isn’t a hypothetical story. This is what happened—over and over again—in a landmark study called the FEAST trial, conducted across hospitals in Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania. More than 3,100 critically ill African children just like ours in Ethiopia were enrolled. All had severe infection. All showed signs we call “poor perfusion”—cold extremities, delayed capillary refill, weak pulse. But here’s the truth that shook the world: > Children who received fluid boluses were 45% more likely to die within 48 hours than those who didn’t. Not because the doctors were careless. Not because the fluids were dirty. But because in our settings—without ICUs, without ventilators, without reliable blood pressure machines—giving a bolus to a child who isn’t truly dehydrated can tip her fragile body into collapse. You might ask: “But how do I know if she’s really in shock if I can’t measure her blood pressure?” That’s the heart of it. In Ethiopia, most health centers don’t have working pediatric BP cuffs. So we guess. We see cold hands, fast breathing, and assume “shock = needs fluids.” But the FEAST trial proved: > When you can’t confirm low blood pressure, giving a bolus is not heroic—it’s hazardous. The children who died after boluses weren’t suffering from diarrhea or burns—conditions where fluid loss is real. They had malaria, sepsis, pneumonia—infections that cause the body to shut down circulation on purpose to protect vital organs. Flooding them with fluid overwhelmed their hearts, lungs, and brains—not with obvious swelling, but with silent, deadly stress. And yet—more than a decade later—many of us still reach for that IV bag first. Why? Because we were taught that fluids save lives. Because Western textbooks, PALS courses, and international guidelines were written for Boston, Berlin, or Bangkok—not for Bahir Dar or Dire Dawa. But science isn’t one-size-fits-all. Evidence from Africa must guide African care. The World Health Organization now clearly states: "In hospitals without ICU support, do NOT give fluid boluses to febrile children with impaired perfusion unless they have confirmed severe hypotension". To every intern, nurse, and doctor reading this: I know it’s hard to unlearn what we’ve been taught. I know it feels risky to withhold something we believed was life-saving. But the bravest thing we can do is pause—and ask: > “Is this child truly dehydrated… or is she fighting an infection that doesn’t need more fluid—but better care?” Because in Ethiopia, the bolus that’s meant to rescue might be the one that takes her away. And if I told you that, Would you believe me? Now you have the evidence. Now you have the choice. And now—you have the power to save more lives by giving less. Inspired by the FEAST Trial (NEJM, 2011). For every child who deserved better than what we thought was “standard.” Links to the official article; [NEJM.org link] https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1101549 Jafer Mohammed Amin, General Practitioner @HakimEthio

💊 The Culture of Overmedication A while back, I met Mr. Ali (name changed), a 68-year-old gentleman with hypertension, type+2
💊 The Culture of Overmedication A while back, I met Mr. Ali (name changed), a 68-year-old gentleman with hypertension, type 2 diabetes, and osteoarthritis. He came in complaining of fatigue, epigastric discomfort, and right knee pain. As I reviewed his medications, I counted 8 prescriptions plus 2 over-the-counter “additions” he started on advice from a friend and a pharmacist. “ዶክተር, ጎረቤቴ ይችን ለመገጣጠሚይው ይወስዳት ነበር ፍቱን ናት ብሎ ሰጠኝ እነኝህ ደግሞ ከፋርማሲ ለጨጓራና ለራስ ምታት ገዛዋቸው.... ” When we spread the meds on the table from his famous ጥቁር ፌስታል medicine bag, it looked like he was carrying a small pharmacy in his pocket not to mention a pile of empty medication plastic holders scattered everywhere. ✅2 are prescribed by different clinics ✅3 recommended by friends “who had the same problem” ✅The rest bought from a pharmacy after a quick conversation ✅What started as a good intention had turned into polypharmacy, too many drugs for one body to process. Polypharmacy is not just inconvenient; it increases the risk of side effects, drug interactions, kidney or liver strain, and confusion about which drug actually helps. In Ethiopia, among older adults in Dessie, 33.9% were on polypharmacy, and 46% had at least one potentially inappropriate drug Among patients with type 2 diabetes in Northwest Ethiopia, 59% were exposed to polypharmacy Then comes the second epidemic: antibiotic overuse. We’ve turned antibiotics into painkillers, giving them for every cough, cold, or sore throat. Mr. Ali wasn’t careless. He was doing what many patients believe is right: treating every symptom as a disease that needs a pill. A 2024 study from two major teaching hospitals in Addis Ababa found that 65% of inpatients were on antibiotics 39% taking two or more simultaneously. Shockingly, only 11% had microbiological testing done. Mind you, this is Addis, the center for the best care a patient gets in Ethiopia, and as you move away to the periphery, it's mind-boggling to comprehend how antibiotics are misused and abused with good intentions, of course. Globally, the WHO reported in 2025: Antibiotic consumption is dangerously high 18.3 daily doses per 1,000 inhabitants per day. Many countries overuse “Watch” antibiotics, accelerating resistance. 1 in 6 bacterial infections worldwide is now resistant to treatment. Every week in clinics and emergency rooms, we see older adults arrive with medicine bags full of pills — some prescribed, others borrowed, and many continued long after their purpose ended. The combination of polypharmacy, antibiotic misuse, and uncoordinated care is creating a silent epidemic. የጤና ጣቢያ 'ታይፎይድና ታይፈስ' — coupled with self-diagnosis and over-the-counter antibiotic use — is quietly taking a toll on the most vulnerable among us: the elderly. Mr. Ali’s story reminds us: more medication doesn’t mean better care. After reviewing his medications carefully, we: ✅ Stopped unnecessary drugs ✅ Simplified his regimen ✅ Provided clear guidance on essential meds ✅ Counseled him on proper antibiotic use Sometimes, the most powerful prescription is restraint. Strategies to Combat Polypharmacy 1️⃣ Regular medication review 2️⃣ Evidence-based prescribing 3️⃣ Patient education 4️⃣ Simplify medication regimens 5️⃣ Effective communication between providers 6️⃣ Use of deprescribing tools (e.g., Beers Criteria, STOPP/START) 7️⃣ Monitoring and follow-up 📚 References ✅ Endris M, et al. “Polypharmacy and Potentially Inappropriate Medication Use Among Older Adults in Ethiopia.” Front Public Health. 2025;13:1525079. ✅Ayele G, et al. “Prevalence and Associated Factors of Polypharmacy Among Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients in Northwest Ethiopia.” BMC Primary Care. 2024;25(1):118. ✅ Desta Z, et al. “Antimicrobial Use in Two Major Teaching Hospitals in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia: A Point Prevalence Survey.” JAC-Antimicrobial Resistance. 2024;6(3):dkae065. ✅ GLASS Report 2025.
