Dependency on digital devices resulting in an ever-increasing daily screen time has subsequently also been the cause of several adverse effects on physical and mental or psychological health. Constant exposure to devices like smartphones, personal computers, and television can severely affect mental health-increase stress and anxiety, for example, and cause various sleep issues in both children as well as adults. Risk factors for obesity and cardiovascular disorders, including hypertension, poor regulation of stress, low HDL cholesterol, and insulin resistance are among the physical health repercussions we see. The psychological health effects comprise suicidal tendencies and symptoms of depression which are associated with digital device dependency, screen-time-induced poor sleep quality, and content-influenced negativity. Oftentimes it can cause the induction of a state of hyper-arousal, increase stress hormones, desynchronize the body clock or the circadian cycle, alter brain chemistry and create a drag on mental energy and development. With a focus on brain development in children and detrimental effects in both adults and children, this research article goes on to explore the various aspects of screen addiction and excessive screen exposure.

A promising scientific field is health monitoring and associated technology. A standard testing method to evaluate and identify heart issues is the electrocardiogram (E.C.G.) and diagnose cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). E.C.G. monitoring technologies are becoming more and more prevalent in publications at an exponential rate. E.C.G. is the most crucial tool for screening cardiology and other medical specialities. Twelve leads can be recorded by traditional E.C.G. equipment, while current E.C.G. systems allow for extra leads also with fewer electrodes. Furthermore, "smart" gadgets allow patients to take an E.C.G. at residence. Presenting different ischemia-related symptoms on the E.C.G. by the most recent recommendations. Presentation of contemporary E.C.G. systems and their possible benefit in identifying ischemia-related E.C.G. symptoms based on recent study findings. The identification of ischemia E.C.G. abnormalities can be facilitated and optimised by current E.C.G. systems using vector-based electrocardiography. Although they can be effective for documenting transient E.C.G. abnormalities, especially inside the S.T. segment, smart non-vector-based devices for patients are primarily beneficial for the diagnosis of arrhythmias and cannot substitute the 12-lead E.C.G. for the diagnosis of ischemia. The electrocardiogram (E.C.G.) is inexpensive and easily accessible, but because of its alleged limited specificity, its utility as a screening tool for early detection of athletes with a cardiac condition in danger of immediate cardiac death is contentious. The interpreting parameters have been continuously evolving over the past 10 years as various efforts have been made to better the separation between healthy and pathological E.C.G. abnormalities in athletes. Electrocardiographic abnormalities that are unrelated to cardiac electrical activity are known as electrocardiographic artefacts. E.C.G. elements, including the baseline and waves, can become altered as a result of artefacts.

BACKGROUND There is a worldwide scarcity of cadaver for teaching as well as for research. Many private as well as government medical colleges relay only on unclaimed bodies, but this scarcity of cadaver cannot be replenished with the unclaimed bodies alone. Despite the importance of body donation for medical education, cadaveric donation remains suboptimal worldwide. Body donation programs are still in their infancy in our country. The success of these programs depends upon the ability of our health care professionals in motivating the society at large. Thus, it is crucial that our medical fraternity and health care professionals themselves support and favour this issue. Hence this study was carried out to know the attitude of medical fraternity towards body donation program. METHODS A cross-sectional survey was conducted among the faculties of Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Sharad Pawar dental college and Ayurvedic college at Datta Meghe Institute of Medical science, Sawangi Meghe, Wardha. Study duration was from July 2018 to July 2019. Inputs from all the study participants were obtained on the basis of questionnaire about the attitude towards body donation after taking their consent. The questionnaire was collected from the participants’ and the data obtained was assessed statistically. RESULTS The study revealed significant negative attitude of medical fraternity towards body donation. It was observed that 21.7 % male & 3.7 % female faculties from medical colleges, 11 % male and 5.71 % female faculties from dental colleges and 25 % male and 10 % female faculties from Ayurvedic colleges were willing for body donation whereas 96 % of faculties from medical colleges, 92 % from dental colleges and 89 % ayurvedic faculties were not willing to donate their bodies for dissection purpose because they had an awful experience in the dissection hall. They had witnessed the dishonoured condition of the cadaver in dissection hall. 95 % of faculties from medical college, 92 % dental faculties and 90 % ayurvedic faculties stated that to get dissected on the table was an atrocious feeling. CONCLUSIONS The success of body donation programs depends upon the ability of health care professionals in motivating the society for voluntary body donation. Negative attitude of medical fraternity towards body donation may interfere with this role. Developing the practice of respecting and honouring the cadaver, from the very beginning of the career will help to change the attitude of medical graduates towards body donation. Competency no AN82.2 from volume 1 UG curriculum, module no 1.5 from ATCOM module may help to change the attitude of budding doctors.
