    Abstract: Background: Present study was done to evaluate the Mechanical ventilation and its association with Ocular Surface Disorders among Patients admitted in Adult Intensive Care Unit. Material and Methods: It was a prospective observational study carried in AICU over period of one year by Department of Ophthalmology, Dr. RPGMC Kangra at Tanda. All the patients who were admitted in AICU greater than 48 hours between ages of 18-65 years were included and evaluated for socio-demographic information like age, gender, Mechanical ventilation etc. Thorough ophthalmic examination was also done for ocular surface disorders and analysed using epi info v7 software. Results: A total of 126 patients were included in the study. Mean age of the study participants was 41.8 years. Maximum patients, 23.8% of the patients were in age group of 51 and 60 years followed by 23% between 21 and 30 years and 41 and 50 years each. 64.3% of the patients were males while 35.7% were females. 74 (58.7%) of the patients had ocular surface disorders. In the present study, 66.7% of the patients were on mechanical ventilation at 48 hours. At the end of first week, 63% patients were on mechanical ventilation while at the end of second week, 54.5% patients were on mechanical ventilation. At the end of fourth and fifth week, none of the patients was on mechanical ventilation. In the present study, the association between presence of mechanical ventilation and ocular surface disorders was statistically significant. Conclusion: The present study concluded that the patients who were on mechanical ventilation had significantly higher number of ocular surface disorders.

    Abstract: Background: Present study was done to evaluate eyelid position and Discharge from eyes among Patients admitted in Adult Intensive Care Unit. Material and Methods: It was a prospective observational study carried in AICU over period of one year by Department of Ophthalmology, Dr. RPGMC Kangra at Tanda. All the patients who were admitted in AICU greater than 48 hours between ages of 18-65 years were included and evaluated for socio-demographic information like age, gender etc. Thorough ophthalmic examination was also done for eyelid position and eye discharge and analyzed using epi info v7 software. Results: A total of 126 patients were included in the study. Mean age of the study participants was 41.8 years. 64.3% of the patients were males while 35.7% were females. 26.2% of the right eyes had grade 3 eyelid positions at 48 hour, 67% at the end of first week, 64% at the end of second week and at the end of fourth and fifth week, none of the right eyes had grade 3 eyelid position. 24.6% of the left eyes had grade 3 eyelid positions at 48 hours 67% At the end of first week, 64% at the end of second week and At the end of fourth and fifth week, none of the left eyes had grade 3 eyelid position. Rate of mucopurulent discharge was 14.2% and 11.9% in right and left eyes respectively at 48 hours. At the end of first week, the rate of mucopurulent discharge was 59.2% in the right eyes and 63% in left eyes. At the end of second week, the rate of mucopurulent discharge was 18.2% and 36.4% in right and left eyes respectively. Three right eyes out of 5 eyes and one left eye out of 5 eyes showed mucopurulent discharge at the end of third week. At the end of fourth and fifth week, none of the eyes showed mucopurulent discharge Conclusion: Eye care which may include lubrication with eye drops, administration of broad-spectrum antibiotics, taping of eye lids and regular examination by ophthalmologists can markedly reduce eye related complications among AICU admitted patients.

    Abstract: Background: Present study was done to evaluate the ocular surface disorders and their association with Socio-demographic variables among Patients admitted in Adult Intensive Care Unit. Material and Methods: It was a prospective observational study carried in AICU over period of one year by Department of Ophthalmology, Dr. RPGMC Kangra at Tanda. All the patients who were admitted in AICU greater than 48 hours between ages of 18-65 years were included and evaluated for socio-demographic information like age, gender etc. Thorough ophthalmic examination was also done for ocular surface disorders and analyzed using epi info v7 software. Results: A total of 126 patients were included in the study. Mean age of the study participants was 41.8 years. Maximum patients, 23.8% of the patients were in age group of 51 and 60 years followed by 23% between 21 and 30 years and 41 and 50 years each. 64.3% of the patients were males while 35.7% were females. 101(80.2%) patients belonged to rural areas while 25(19.8%) belonged to urban areas. 73.8% of the patients belonged to lower upper Socioeconomic class followed by 11.2% patients in lower middle class. For 78.6% of the patients, duration of stay in AICU was up to one week followed by 12.7% had the hospital stay was between 1 week and 2 weeks. 74 (58.7%) of the patients had ocular surface disorders. Longer duration of stay in AICU was associated with significantly increased number of patients having ocular surface disorders (Pless than 0.0001). Presence of ocular surface disorders was not related with age (P=0.153) and gender (P=0.359). Conclusion: The present study concluded that there is a close association of ocular surface disorders with longer duration of stay of these critically ill AICU patients. Eye care should be an integral part of management of these patients.

    Abstract: Background: Present study was done to evaluate the Indications for admission and its association with ocular surface disorders among Patients admitted in Adult Intensive Care Unit of a Tertiary Care Hospital. Material and Methods: It was a prospective observational study carried in AICU over period of one year by Department of Ophthalmology, Dr. RPGMC Kangra at Tanda. All the patients who were admitted in AICU greater than 48 hours between ages of 18-65 years were included and evaluated for socio-demographic information like age, gender, indications for admission etc. Thorough ophthalmic examination was also done for ocular surface disorders and analysed using epi info v7 software. Results: A total of 126 patients were included in the study. Mean age of the study participants was 41.8 years. Maximum patients, 23.8% of the patients were in age group of 51 and 60 years followed by 23% between 21 and 30 years and 41 and 50 years each. 64.3% of the patients were males while 35.7% were females. The most common indication for AICU admission was post-operative monitoring (30.9%) followed by head injury (19.8%) and orthopaedic injury (11.1%). In the present study, 74 (58.7%) of the patients had ocular surface disorders. Ocular surface disorders were observed most commonly among patients who had head injury Followed by Post-operative monitoring and Respiratory Insufficiency as indication for AICU admission. Conclusion: The present study concluded that post-operative monitoring was the most common indication for AICU admission and Ocular surface disorders were observed most commonly among patients who had head injury.

    Abstract: Background: Present study aimed to evaluate the association between blood eosinophil count and tissue eosinophil grading among Patients suffering from Sinonasal Polyposis attending routine ENT OPD in Dr. RPGMC Tanda. Material and Methods: The present study was done as a hospital based cross sectional study in the department of ENT and Head and Neck Surgery, in Dr. RPGMC Kangra at Tanda. It was done in 30 patients of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyposis (CRSwNP) from June 2018 to June 2019 who met the inclusion criteria. Data regarding Blood and Tissue eosinophil count was retrieved. Results: in the present study,there were a total of 30 patients out of which there were 16 males and 14 females. The mean age observed of patients was 42.47±13.68. Among the total, 17 patients were classified as Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyposis (ECRSwNP) while 13 were classified as Non-Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyposis (NECRSwNP). There were 9 cases of ECRSwNP where tissue eosinophils were 〉 10/HPF while 8 cases had less than 10 tissue eosinophils/HPF. Similarly 9 cases of NECRSwNP had less than 10 tissue eosinophils/HPF while 4 cases had tissue eosinophils were 〉 10/HPF. The association between blood eosinophil count and tissue eosinophil grading was not significant with p value of 0.225. Conclusion: Present study concluded that there was no significant association of blood eosinophil count between NECRSwNP and ECRSwNP with tissue eosinophils.
