‘hit and run’ otw to iv session
For me, helping people’s lives is one of the goal in order to be a doctor. Therefore, going to the interview and helping the victim are both important. So, I will start with DR. ABC method which is ‘Danger, Respond, Airways, Breathing and Circulation’.
So first, I will take a look at the victim’s condition, if severe blood loss could happen, I will ask the passers by to help me to isolate the victim from the vehicle.
Then I will call the police. If necessary, I will do CPR. Then, I will get the information of the victim’s family. After I ensure all the necessaries are under control, then I will continue my journey to the interview. I am sure helping the victim may not takes too long.
Friend intend to make up a fake story to cover his/her mistakes in report.
For me, making a precise report is important. But humans are not perfect. Even Takoma Bridge fall and couldn’t save many lives because of the inaccurate planning by the architects. So is for doctors.
in this case, I have to advise my friend to tell the truth and admit the mistake. Her/his mistake can be a moral for her/him and also for others.
Other doctors may not repeat the same mistake in future.
The ethical value when a doctor ask forgiveness from the patient is also a good manner that make people would have a high respect in doctors.
Before anything gets worse, my friend can also find another solution for the patient and this shows how a doctor is very responsible to take any risk and how efficient a doctor works because doctors are known as quick-thinkers.
So all in all, honesty is the best policy especially in medical life.

Deal with patient who unsatisfied with my treatment
- We should realize that not every people hv a wide knowledge about medical treatment that some people may be insecured with it. So, first thing I will counsel the parents about the impact of blood loss for the patient for short term and long term.
- nowadays we have numerous types of treatments, including medical treatment and traditional treatment. My patient may insecure with medical treatment.
- So, first I will explain briefly where is the organ that hv problems. And I will suggest another treatment instead of medical teatment such as using herbs or exercise.
- either herbs, fruits, vegetable r pills, all have its own advantages, as long as the patient take it under control, under doctor’s prescription
- with me being a doctor, I will make sure the best for my patient’s health
14. insist for blood transfusion
- We should realize that not every people hv a wide knowledge about medical treatment that some people may be insecured with it. So, first thing I will counsel the parents about the impact of blood loss for the patient for short term and long term.
- The patient need immediate blood transfusion because a severe infection or liver disease stops his/her body from properly making blood or some parts of blood. An illness that causes anemia, such as kidney disease or cancer have high tendency to attack the patient at this moment. Medicines or radiation used to treat a medical condition can also cause anemia. So, blood transfusion is the best method for this case.
- Then I would guarantee them by showing the results of blood transfusion by previous patients. If the parents are insecured because of the case of the genetic diseases or cancer such HIV, I would convince them by showing the precise precaution and accomplishment by the doctors and medical assistants.
- If the parents insist because of the financial problem, we can convince them by offering them the deposit payment package or maybe the free payment by the government hospital.
- with me being a doctor, I will make sure the best for my patient’s health
15. plan B
- I think I want to be a Biology teacher. This is because since kid I love Biology very much and I love reading and searching for medical articles, watching medical videos and movies.
- Biology deals with diseases, health of a living body and our Mother Nature which they are very important knowledge for us in order to have healthy lifestyle.
- Moreover, I can ensure my family’s health, by controlling their intake of food, diet and exercise in order to keep healthy mentally and physically. Therefore, this can enhance my family’s intelligence too. besides, Biology can allow me to advise my friends who are suffered from diseases because I love to treat people.
- In every class, especially Mathematics and Biology class, my name is frequently called to come in front to explain and present for the new lectures or knowledge. This is an easy task for me because I always make preparation by studying first what I will study for the next lecture. And this is why I always be chosen as a mentor to teach my friends because I have a great ability in presenting and teaching people.
- with me being a Biology teacher, i can ensure people around me live in harmony, just like what every doctor dreams of.
17. why do we need to choose you
- i manage to use my time properly. i never proscrastinate, and always make preparation for any task earlier and faster than other people. in boarding school, i am the vice president of student representative council (mpp) and i hv to handle many events in and out of school, attend meetings, and do homework and revision for spm. but, still alhamdulillah i manage to ace in all subjects in spm.
- I know the real doctor life is just not treating patient. As I have many experiences in marketing for my business since school, i have the ability to console and persuade people because I am a a very friendly influencer. I can talk and make jokes to any patient even it is the first meet.
- In every class, especially Mathematics and Biology class, my name is frequently called to come in front to explain and present for the new lectures or knowledge. This is an easy task for me because I always make preparation by studying first what I will study for the next lecture. And this is why I always be chosen as a mentor to teach my friends because I have a great ability in presenting and teaching people.
- with me being a medical student in USM, I will make sure I have a strong collaboration with the lecturers. If there are 7 world influencers for research citation in USM, I will make sure the number will grow and grow up.
18. mom or baby?
- this is not a rare case. Even my mom have been thru in this case for twice, once when delivering me.
- if the mother is in uncontrollable condition, the decision is on the husband’s hand. Before the husband sign the agreement, of course the doctors will give the best advice – choose the mother
- so in this case, mothers are chosen because mothers have many responsibilities on her family and job for years, while the baby is a newbie, which a mom can be pregnant for another time.
- talk about mother’s responsibilities and love, it is indeed that no one can be just the same. Whether father or new mother can never replace her, and this also may result in discomfort among children and parent.
- when there is a pregnancy disorder like this, the baby delivered may not internally and externally perfect in physical and mental. The baby may be immatured or have some diabilities. So, it is better to save mother whose life is more precious.
- furthermore, in most cases, if the mother is chosen, the doctors will definitely pull their full effort to save the baby’s life as well. And most of the surgeries go well, just like my mom.
- with me being a doctor, I will make sure the decision will never be regrettable and I will always give advice and motivation for the husband and wife for them for having a happy life, now and then.
19. where do you see yourself in 5 years?
- As I have a high passion in business, I wanna be like my idol, Dr Adnan, the biggest manager of hospitals and policlinics of penawar that are abundance in Malaysia.
- he always thinks positive and thinks further in anything circumtances he faces in his life. for example, he doesnt only take medical field as a chance in treating patients but also as a chance in developing Malaysia's economy.
- Therefore, during my studies, I can start saving money and planning for my own clinic. So during housemanship, I can start building my own clinic in my residential area. And after housemanship, I can make my own money in my own clinic.
- My goal is I want to be a job creator, not a job seeker.
- As I have many experiences in marketing for my business since school, i have the ability to console and persuade people because I am a a very friendly influencer. I can talk and make jokes to anyone even it is the first meet.
- and i believe, with my skill in marketing and influencing people, I can develop my clinic into hospital in next few years.
- with me being a doctor, I will help those who are incapable and unaffordable as long as they can live in healthy life.
27. biggest prob in our health care system
- Well I've read articles about how bad the Malaysian healthcare system that makes it really hard for doctors to do what they do the best- help people.
- For me, anywhere anytime , money is always being the biggest problem. For instance, the 2016 budget plan had decreased the Health Ministry budget by 253 to 300 million.
- Next, based on the statistic, annually Malaysia produces more than 10 thousands graduates of medical degree and even big country like Australia only produces 1,000 graduates of MD per year. when there are too many graduates of MD, government cannot assess precisely the most qualified doctors. And still, government cannot afford to hire too many doctors. This narrow the opportunity of the graduates in entering the housemanship. Many qualfied doctors are unlucky to step on their foothold and need to wait for months to be called.
- Regarding to this matter, the quality of doctor is gradually decrease because the are too many unqualified doctors in hospitals. The respectability of people in medical treatment will gradually fall down.
- Besides that, with financial problem, we are still using technologies which are not as advance as other countries. Therefore, the medical treatment will not as efficient as the other countries, same goes to medical apparatus in medical school, so some expertise field cannot be handled out in Malaysia. Therefore, some patients might need to get treatment in oversea because of the lacking of specialist and medical apparatus in Malaysia.
35. *heart transplant (a 75-year-old man or a drug addict is more compatible?)*
- in this context, we need to choose sensibly the person who need the heart transplant the most
- this is because heart donored are not sufficient enough for the patient, especially in malaysia. Malaysia also tend to buy donor hearts from other countries such as US. Despite of that, 2,000 donor hearts are available in the United States each year. Yet, approximately 3,000 people are on a heart transplant waiting list at any given time, according to the a.
- so we need to consider the most eligible patient by some candidacy
- one of it is the age. Most prospective heart recipients must be under 65 years old. So in this case, the 75-year-old man is out of the list and the drug addict will be chosen.
- Some may think the drug addict is not supposed to do heart transplant because of the person’s behaviour and the addiction might repeat the same condition, which is heart failure for the second time. but he still can live for ages with the new heart if his/her brain can function normally.
- so this relates to the second candidacy which is the overall health. If the drug addict has multiple organ failure, cancer, or other serious medical conditions the drug addict may be taken off the transplant list.
- third candidacy needed to be considered is the habit. The patient must commit to changing his/her lifestyle. This includes exercising, eating healthy, quitting taking drugs and quitting smoking if he/she does.
- so, with me being the physician, I will do a complete survey to make sure who is more compatible for the transplant or maybe both are not.
44. *lethal injection because cannot endure pain*
Taking lethal injection means the patient is undergoing euthanasia
In many cases, it is carried out at the person's request but there are times when they may be in incurable condition and the decision is made by relatives, medics or, in some instances, the courts.
Voluntary euthanasia or assisted suicide can lead to imprisonment of up to 14 years.
But, it's not euthanasia when a doctor to give a drug in order to reduce pain, even though the drug causes the patient to die sooner. This is because the doctor's intention was to relieve the pain, not to kill the patient. This argument is sometimes known as the Doctrine of Double Effect.
So, by following the law in medicine, me as a doctor need to make sure that death must be inevitable and drawing near.
When I am ensure enough, I have the right to advise the patient’s family to sign the agreement for the patient to take euthanasia.
If the patient still have chance to survive for a longer lifetime or the pain can be cured by using other alternative such as surgery, theraphy or painkillers, I would not allow the patient to undergo euthanasia. I will give the patient some motivating advice and let the person know how precious his/her life is.
62. kidney transplant
- To answer this, first and foremost, I will definitely donor my kidney to my mother.
- family members have the most compatible kidneys for transplant. This is because there must be one of them who share the same blood type.
- age is not really considerable in this case, as long as I am 18 or above. The other candidacies for a kidney donors are good physical and mental health, BMI less than 35 and free from diseases such as diabetes, cancer, AIDS, hepatitis, organ disease and infectious disease.
- once the kidney donors donor their kidney, they have the same life expectancy, general health and kidney function as others.
- they still can manage to live like others
- one more extra info is kidney transplant is more important and recommended than continuous dialysis which can only help the kidney to function in a particular times
73. study style and work style
- My study style is before class, I love to study first basically what I am going to study in the next lecture, by watching videos.
- Because watching videos is very effective method by 65% especially for auditary and visual learner like me. But I know in medical studies we lack too much time. Therefore,after class, I will have a group discussion to recap back briefly what have been learning in the previous class.
- Sharing ideas and information will enhance my understanding and this can work faster.
- While my work style is I manage to use my time properly. i never proscrastinate, and always make preparation for any task earlier and faster than other people. in boarding school, i am the vice president of student representative council (mpp) and i hv to handle many events in and out of school, attend meetings, and do homework and revision for spm. but, still alhamdulillah i manage to ace in all subjects in spm.
- This is because I always list down what is the most important, more important and less important things that I need to care of. I used to be a perfectionist because I am a very meticulous person, especially in art because I love art so much.
- And that is why with me being a leader, I can guarantee all work is done perfectly and all the competitions led by me will be the best among the best.
#1 Why is uncontrolled use of antibiotics a dangerous thing? What can we do about it?
Answer Guide:
- Antibiotics are used to treat a wide range of infections, ranging from life threatening conditions to common respiratory tract infections
- They are our only defence against many of these illnesses, but can become ineffective as bacteria have the ability to develop mutations that protect themselves from the drugs
- The more antibiotics are used, the more likely it is that bacteria will develop protection against them. It is therefore important to use them sparingly so that we have effective antibiotics to combat life threatening conditions for as long as possible
- Continued medical research is an essential tool that could create new drugs that bacteria are not resistant to
- Changes to clinical practice, encouraging doctors not to prescribe antibiotics to those who do not necessarily require them, could help
- Public health campaigns could highlight these issues, encouraging patients not to request antibiotics when they have the common cold, for example
#2 What role do public health campaigns like anti-smoking TV adverts have in the NHS, and why is this a good way to spend NHS resources?
- Pay close attention to health campaigns. These are used a lot and are seen as a significant weapon against disease
- TV, radios, gadgets are all around us. So, advertisements about the awareness can be spreaded out quickly.
- Although healthcare professionals are well equipped to deal with a huge range of medical conditions, they are overstretched and under-funded.
- public education can be conducted at many institution and places, primary sch, sec sch and universities . Citizens at all ages can understand about what they need to do before, during or after being infected by the diseases.
- this can help to encourage them to cut down on such practices and preparations as prevention is better than cur
#3 Is mental health an area of concern for the NHS, and if so why?
Answer Guide:
- Mental health conditions can be a terrible burden for somebody suffering from them, and it is the duty of the NHS to help them
- Modern society is increasingly fraught and stressful for many people, and this can lead to a wide range of mental health problems
- Mental health conditions can also lead to physical problems
- Mental and physical health care are both equally important when considering the health of a whole person, and mental health should therefore be receiving a significant amount of NHS resources
- Recently, this has been a focus for many of the political parties, and the Liberal Democrats focused on mental health as a flagship policy in the 2015 election
#4 Should vaccinations of children against common infectious diseases be compulsory?
- First, as with so many questions of this type, it is important to establish the basic facts before getting into detail
- Despite medical progress, preventable disease continues to affect millions of people, and vaccines for many of these are readily available. Vaccinating children is one way of halting their spread
- The consequences of a parent’s child becoming infected are not just borne by that child, or that parent, but also the local community, who are at risk as well
- However, forcing vaccination on all school children might be seen as overly paternalistic and parents may see this as a loss of their freedom to choose how to care for their child
— it’s a difficult balancing act
#5 A recent study estimated that by 2050 more than half of the UK population could be obese. Is this a cause for concern and if so, why?
- Well, obesity is associated with a wide range of health problems, including diabetes and osteoarthritis, among others
- These lead to a low quality of life for the person affected. Furthermore, their consequent conditions can cost the NHS. This is already a huge drain of NHS resources, so it is worrying that the trend is going up
- In most cases obesity is preventable and manageable, and can be reduced with exercise and diet advice. So, there is hope that even though the study estimates a spike in obesity numbers, these can be brought down with hard work
#6 What is Zika virus?
- Zika virus is carried by Aedes mosquitoes and the first human case was detected in 1954.
- There were further outbreaks in South East Asia and the Pacific, but these were not a serious threat to human health.
- A Zika virus case was reported in 2015 in Brazil, and the virus spread rapidly to Central America as well as the Caribbean.
- Symptoms of the zika virus include mild fever, conjunctivitis, joint pain and headaches.
The World Health Organisation has claimed there is ‘scientific consensus’ that the Zika virus causes microcephaly (a condition which means babies are born with an underdeveloped brain), as well as other birth defects such as miscarriage and stillbirth.
- Experts also believe that the Zika virus is a cause of Guillain-Barré Syndrome, a serious condition of the nervous system.
#7 What are the consequences of Zika virus?
- The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has advised pregnant women not to travel to affected areas.
- Some governments in affected countries have advised women to delay pregnancy.
Trials of a Zika vaccine will likely start at the end of this year, and larger trials could begin at the start of 2017.
Facilities are being upgraded in Malaysia, but progress is slow
Malaysia, unlike Singapore, which has most infrastructures in place, is currently working towards upgrades for its existing facilities and construction of more advanced healthcare complexes with projected completion by 2020. Malaysia’s universal healthcare system is undergoing a structural reform to improve problems such as long waiting times, over consumption and high price differences between the public and private healthcare sectors.
In Malaysia’s budget for 2017, MYR 536 million (US$ 119.8 million) is set aside for upgrading medical facilities and MYR 4.5 billion (US$ 1 billion) allocated to the operation of 340 1Malaysia Clinics, 11 1Malaysia Mobile Clinics, 959 health clinics and more than 1,800 rural clinics.
The standard of care in Malaysia is slowly improving
In Malaysia, a minimum fee of MYR 1 ($US 0.22) is enough to guarantee complex treatments such as cancer operations. This system provides universal coverage and affordable care as a form of social protection. Meanwhile, the public health sector has been plagued by long waiting times, overcrowding at public hospitals and the evolution of patient demands. However, in recent years, the Malaysian government has actively worked on structural reforms and facilities upgrades.
As results in the 10th Malaysia plan from 2010 to 2015 show, measurable improvements in Malaysia’s healthcare have been made. According to data from the Ministry of Health, there has been a steady decrease in the doctor to population ratio from 1:791 in December 2012 to 1:671 in 2015 and there was also an increase in the numbers of government clinics in rural areas. At some government clinics waiting times have decreased by 50%. Although some improvements have been made, more work is needed to increase the number of hospital beds available, reduce the price difference between public and private health and improve technical aspects of treatment such as infection control and personnel quality.
The government is preparing to work with other organizations to meet demand
To help reduce overcrowding in public hospitals, the government will cooperate with the private sector or non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to operate non-profit charitable hospitals. A total of MYR 20 million (US$ 4.47 million) will fund loans for hospital equipment.
In July 2016, Malaysian Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr. S. Subramaniam discussed the idea of introducing a voluntary government insurance scheme. He indicated that the scheme will be dynamic and evolve in line with the changing needs of the population. However, he reiterated that it will not phase out the current health system but will serve as an alternative to the public health sector.
He explained, “There will be no private player and no profit motive. The government health insurance scheme will evolve according to time. It is too early for me to give details such as the structure the scheme and so on. I am just throwing it as a concept and let the relevant party discuss it.” The details of this policy are yet to be publicised and more information is expected to be announced in the coming year.
Malaysia’s healthcare system can be compared to a struggling caretaker
Meanwhile in Malaysia, the healthcare system is seen as a caretaker, providing ‘public good’ to the population. However, this has led to overconsumption of the service, resulting in deteriorating standards of care and long waiting times in public hospitals.
The idea of healthcare being all but free means there is little chance of privatising healthcare in Malaysia. And even though privatisation of healthcare would greatly help, the government has to stress individual responsibility to its people to prevent overconsumption, abuse of the system and a mindset that health is their personal asset. Resistance to privatisation over the years has made it difficult for health officials to make any fundamental changes to the system.
Changes to both healthcare systems will require a holistic approach
To achieve any major healthcare progress, the Malaysian government is charged with the task of first changing the way its people think about health. A possible path is for the government to deregulate laws to make it easier to open a clinic or private hospital. This will help create competition in the private health sector and bring private healthcare prices down. In the long-term, it will provide Malaysians with an affordable alternative to public hospitals and clinics.
Both countries have their own unique problems which will require unique solutions. However, when it comes to healthcare, their leaders should adopt a more holistic approach and create solutions that are far-reaching and forward-looking. Instead of focusing only on achieving short-term goals, it is time for them to anticipate possible changes in the future and create policies that are sustainable.
2. tell me abt yourself
my name is husna binti mohd nor, a pre-u usm student of mara college kulim. i am a daughter of two teachers, and born in kluang johor and talking about my origin, it is the most triggering reason why i am here and why i choose this pathway. i was born in pregnancy disorder where my mom had to suffer from stroke for 7 months without her husband by her side. since i was five, i love to read scientific book and article and watch medical videos because i want to discover into deep why such occasion happens to my mom. therefore, for me, being a gynecologist is one of the way to pay back my mother's sacrifice by helping mothers outside there from having such difficulties during pregnancy as my mom had been through. i also want to show people that here, a girl with born-disorder can still succeed.

- i also have to make a quick decision which will determine the life of baby, mother and also her generation

LOGO USM
Lambang
Lambang Universiti Sains Malaysia yang terdiri daripada anak bulan, dua ekor harimau, perisai dan moto, melambangkan identiti Malaysia, yang universiti ini mendapat ilham dan sokongan. Peranan universiti sebagai institusi kebangsaan terserlah dalam beberapa simbol lain.
Anak bulan melambangkan kebesaran agama Islam sebagai agama rasmi negara. Anak bulan dengan bintang pecah empat belas pula melambangkan perpaduan tiga belas buah negeri dengan Kerajaan Malaysia.
Dua ekor harimau, suatu simbol khusus bagi negara Malaysia, yang menggambarkan sifat-sifat kekuatan. Dua pelepah daun bertinta emas menandakan kemakmuran ekonomi Malaysia. Perisai yang diapit dua ekor harimau, sejenis alatan untuk perlindungan, merupakan suatu alatan tradisional yang diguna khususnya oleh orang-orang asli di negara ini. Warna ungu, yang menggambarkan kedudukan tinggi pula menjadi warna rasmi Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Buku terbuka yang terletak di bahagian atas perisai diibaratkan sebagai elemen ilmu yang dikaitkan dengan Universiti Sains Malaysia. Dua bilah keris, yang merupakan senjata tradisional orang-orang Melayu pula melambangkan kebesaran dan kekuasaan keluarga diraja. Bunga raya di bahagian atas perisai pula merupakan bunga kebangsaan negara.
Secara keseluruhannya, lambang ini didukung oleh moto ‘KAMI MEMIMPIN’ (WE LEAD) yang menggambarkan peranan Universiti dalam bidang ilmu, pengajaran, penyelidikan dan khidmat masyarakat.
Logotaip
Huruf S berwarna putih diletakkan di antara huruf U dan M yang berwarna ungu.
Logotaip rasmi USM direka bentuk dalam susunan tiga huruf serangkai yang melambangkan perpaduan USM sebagai sebuah organisasi. Huruf S berwarna putih dan diapit oleh huruf U dan M yang berwarna ungu iaitu warna rasmi Universiti.
Penggunaan huruf S yang berwarna putih melambangkan kampus yang sejahtera serta cara pemikiran warganya yang sihat dan tajam. Huruf S juga melambangkan bidang Sains dan Sastera dalam bentuk simetri, iaitu simbol keseimbangan dan keharmonian dalam pencarian ilmu.
Huruf S juga melambangkan Sains dan Sastera, dalam bentuk S simetri, melambangkan rasa keseimbangan dan keharmonian dalam pencarian ilmu.
Huruf S yang terbuka pada bahagian atas dan bawahnya mewakili ciri “ di luar kotak pemikiran biasa” yang selari dengan aspirasi inovatif USM sebagaimana yang termaktub dalam misi universiti. Huruf S yang bersambung dengan huruf U dan M pula melambangkan hubungan erat di antara universiti dengan rakyat melalui penyebaran ilmu pengetahuan yang meluas.
Segitiga Jingga
Segitiga jingga melambangkan kekukuhan USM berdasarkan tiga nilai teras Universiti – Unggul, Sejahtera, Mesra. Kedudukan segitiga ini pada bahagian bawah huruf S melambangkan kepentingan ketiga-tiga nilai di atas dalam mendukung moto USM “Kami Memimpin”
Empat Garis Tegak Jingga
Empat garis tegak jingga ini pula melambangkan empat prinsip panduan USM yang berfungsi sebagai tonggak utama dalam keseluruhan pembangunan Universiti.
Ungu USM
Menandakan kedudukan tinggi universiti, ini adalah warna rasmi USM.
Jingga USM
Warna jingga diterapkan daripada warna harimau pada lambang rasmi USM yang menggambarkan ciri-ciri USM yang dinamik dan aktif sebagai pelopor ilmu pada peringkat kebangsaan dan juga antarabangsa.
