Dr. Kamakshi Memorial Hospital is proud to announce the launch of the “Parinamam” Support Group, a comprehensive initiative designed to provide holistic support for patients living with Parkinson’s disease.

Understanding Parkinson’s Disease: A Multifaceted Challenge

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is often recognized for its motor symptoms, such as tremors, dyskinesia, issues with walking and balance, difficulty with swallowing, and speech disorders. However, it is essential to understand that Parkinson’s also encompasses non-motor symptoms, including cognitive issues, behavioral abnormalities, hallucinations, sleep disturbances, anxiety, and depression. These diverse symptoms necessitate a multifactorial approach to treatment, combining both pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies.

“While titration of medications is critical for managing motor symptoms, the role of physiotherapy and occupational therapy cannot be understated,” says Dr. Parvathi, Head of the Physiotherapy Department. “It’s equally important to address the non-motor symptoms with a comprehensive support system.”

Introducing “Parinamam”: A Beacon of Positive Change

In response to the complex needs of Parkinson’s patients, Dr. Kamakshi Memorial Hospital has established the “Parinamam” Support Group under the expert guidance of neurologists Dr. Rajeswari, Dr. Praveen Chander, and Dr. Anirban. The name “Parinamam” translates to “Change,” signifying the group’s mission to bring positive change to the lives of those affected by Parkinson’s disease.

The primary goal of the Parinamam Support Group is to enhance the quality of life for Parkinson’s patients through a multifaceted approach. The group focuses on several key areas:

• Emotional Support: Providing a safe space for patients to share their feelings, experiences, and challenges, reducing feelings of isolation and depression.

• Information Sharing: Offering up-to-date information on Parkinson’s disease, including treatment options, management strategies, and lifestyle adjustments.

• Peer Support: Facilitating connections between individuals facing similar challenges, fostering a sense of community and shared understanding.

• Skill Development: Conducting workshops and activities to help patients maintain or improve their physical, mental, and social functioning, thereby enhancing their independence.

• Caregiver Support: Offering guidance and respite for caregivers, acknowledging their critical role and helping them cope with the demands of caregiving.

A Commitment to Continuous Support

Dr. T.G. Govindarajan, Chairman, and Dr. Sivaranjani, Director of Kamakshi Memorial Hospital, emphasize the hospital’s dedication to providing ongoing support for Parkinson’s patients. “Our Parinamam group meetings are held every four months, structured as half-day programs that include expert talks, demonstrations by therapists, interactive activities, and discussion sessions to address patient concerns. We also conclude each meeting with fun games and activities tailored for Parkinson’s patients,” they shared.

These meetings are offered free of charge, reflecting the hospital’s commitment to supporting the Parkinson’s community.

Panav Biotech proudly introduces Maropitine injection, an effective treatment for nausea and vomiting in pets.

The Latest Innovation in Veterinary Medicine Introduce by Panav Biotech

Breakthrough Advancement in Veterinary Care
New Delhi, India – Panav Biotech, a pioneering leader in veterinary healthcare, proudly announces the launch of Maropitine Injection, a cutting-edge solution designed to treat and prevent nausea and vomiting in dogs and cats. This innovative product effectively addresses a critical need in veterinary care, offering a reliable treatment for motion sickness, chemotherapy-induced nausea, and post-anaesthesia vomiting in companion animals.

With this launch, Panav Biotech continues to reaffirm its commitment to improving animal health through advanced and effective healthcare solutions.

Maropitant Citrate, the active ingredient in Maropitine, is an FDA-approved neurokinin (NK-1) receptor antagonist/Substance P inhibitor. Maropitant is a powerful anti-vomiting drug used in veterinary medicine, especially for dogs. It works against both peripheral and central causes of vomiting. It’s effective in treating vomiting related to pancreatitis, gastritis, parvovirus, and chemotherapy. Maropitant can also help manage uremic vomiting and reduce nausea and other stomach issues. Maropitine provides relief for conditions such as motion sickness, which affects nearly 48% of dogs, often discouraging pet owners from traveling. Additionally, it has an anesthetic-sparing effect, meaning dogs treated with maropitant may need slightly less inhalational anesthetic, like isoflurane, during surgery. Studies have shown that substance P and NK-1 receptors play a role in how the body processes pain, causes the muscles in the intestines to contract, widens blood vessels (vasodilation), and triggers inflammation in the nervous system.

Action of different drugs on different emesis pathways in comparison to Maropitant Citrate

With a growing demand for safe and effective veterinary products, Panav Bio-Tech continues to advance in offering innovative healthcare solutions for pets across the globe.

Maropitine Features

• Nk1 receptor antagonist/Substance P inhibitor
• FDA-approved for treatment
• No need to refrigerate prior to administration
• Available in a 20ml multi-use Vial

The Necessity of advanced veterinary therapeutic products for treating canines and felines in India is essential for a variety of compelling reasons. First, as pet ownership continues to rise, there is an increasing demand for effective solutions to manage a variety of health issues, from chronic diseases to acute conditions. Advanced veterinary products can provide targeted therapies that improve treatment outcomes and reduce recovery times.

Second, with the growing awareness of animal health and welfare, pet owners are seeking innovative options that offer better efficacy and safety profiles. Cutting-edge innovations, including Therapeutic agents, biologics and immunotherapies can address complex health issues more effectively than traditional treatments.

With the expansion of research and development in the veterinary sector, these advanced Products enhance the quality of care for dogs, ensuring better management of their health and overall well-being. As awareness among pet owner’s increases, the adoption of these advanced treatments is likely to rise, leading to healthier lives for pets across the country.

A pioneering force in the development of innovative veterinary products. Panav Biotech dedicated to enhancing animal health and welfare through rigorous research and advanced technology. Our team of veterinary scientists and industry experts work tirelessly to create effective solutions that address the unique challenges faced by veterinarians and pet owners alike. From cutting-edge medications to specialized care products, our commitment to quality and innovation ensures that animals receive the best possible care.

This film is an extension of PayU’s brand refresh initiative and aims to boost brand awareness while positioning PayU as a unified, full-stack digital financial services platform. Through this initiative, PayU seeks to showcase its pivotal role in powering digital payments, credit solutions (LazyPay and PaySense), and PayTech as a Service (PaaS) via Wibmo.

The ‘One PayU’ film addresses a common challenge – while consumers often interact with PayU’s products and its group companies, they may not realize that PayU is the driving force behind these services. Whether making online payments, applying for credit, or utilizing other financial services, PayU’s presence is deeply embedded in the digital commerce ecosystem, though not always visible to users.

Our refreshed brand identity marks the next phase of growth as we unify our offerings across payments, credit, and financial services, continuing to deliver innovative, integrated solutions for all our stakeholders- businesses, consumers, and financial institutions.”

The ad film opens with a heartwarming scene of a young boy making an online purchase, thanking a PayU character personifying the brand for enabling the transaction. Throughout the film, PayU is depicted as an invisible yet crucial enabler of various digital financial activities-from loan approvals to online payments-with users expressing gratitude as the PayU character walks through everyday scenarios. This reinforces PayU’s integral role in facilitating digital commerce across the country.

The six week long ‘One PayU’ campaign will reach its 3.5 crore audience segment and seek to enhance awareness and consideration for an additional 5 crore consumers. While digital remains the core vehicle for this branding campaign, tactical insertions in traditional media and OOH are also planned. PayU will leverage on Programmatic and data driven marketing models to maximize impact. CTV (Connected TV) as a media channel plays a significant part in this video first marketing mix. Focused on eight metros initially it will then drive deeper into Tier 2 and 3 cities, telling the story of PayU to consumers of PayU group products.

As PayU continues to innovate and grow its presence in India’s digital financial services segment, the company is focused on serving all its stakeholders with a unified suite of services, reflecting PayU’s brand values of ‘Customer Centricity’, ‘Trust’ and ‘Innovation’. This marks an exciting new chapter for PayU, furthering its mission to create a robust financial services platform for businesses, financial institutions and consumers alike.
