Dr. Pramod Krishnan on Epilepsy and seizures: Know the similarities and differences
Though often confused, epilepsy and seizures are distinct medical conditions. A seizure is a temporary electrical disruption in the brain caused by issues like infections, organ dysfunction, or low blood sugar. In contrast, epilepsy is a chronic brain disease marked by recurrent, unprovoked seizures. Provoked seizures linked to external factors do not indicate epilepsy, which requires long-term medication to prevent recurrence. Dr. Pramod Krishnan, HOD & Consultant - Neurology, Epileptology & Sleep Medicine at Manipal Hospital, highlights the importance of treating the underlying cause for provoked seizures while emphasizing epilepsy’s need for sustained care.

The importance of regular health monitoring for athletes
Regular heart monitoring is crucial for athletes, as their resting heart rate is typically lower—around 30 to 40 beats per minute—compared to 60 to 80 in non-athletes. This is due to their well-conditioned muscles, which require less effort to circulate blood. Monitoring heart rates helps athletes gauge energy use during exercise: 50-60% of their maximum heart rate burns fats, while 60-80% burns carbohydrates and other energy sources. Dr. Sunil G Kini, Consultant - Orthopaedics & Robotic Joint Replacement Surgery at Manipal Hospital Old Airport Road, emphasizes how this understanding optimizes athletic performance and training.
