Animals to help kids with disabilities focus, connect in Kerala
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Studies the world over have shown how animal-assisted therapy helps people with mental and neurodevelopmental conditions, and even age-related cognitive impairment. Now, for the first time in the state, the National Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (NIPMR), an autonomous institution under the state social justice department, has come up with a project to use animal therapy for children with autism. Social Justice Minister R Bindu recently announced the initiative. In the first phase, trained dogs will be used to address neurodevelopmental conditions in children. Studies will also be conducted on using farm animals for assisted therapy at a later stage. 'Animal-assisted therapy, or AAT, is a structured, goal-oriented intervention where trained animals form an integral part of therapy, guided by qualified professionals. Research shows that AAT can lower blood pressure, reduce anxiety, improve posture, balance, and alertness, and boost confidence, motivation, and social skills,' Chandrababu C, executive director in charge of NIPMR, told the TNIE. As part of its pilot project, Thrissur-based NIPMR will employ the services of a trained golden retriever to interact with autistic children in the age group of four to seven. 'Services of the dog, who helped improve the condition of an autistic child, will be put to use for a larger group,' said Anna Daniel, principal of the Bachelor of Occupational Therapy Programme at NIPMR.

Indian-Origin US Doctor To Pay $2 Million Over Fraudulent Billing For Fake Surgeries
Dr Ajay Aggarwal, an anesthesiologist and pain medicine doctor, billed federally funded health care programmes without actually performing the surgical procedures. A 63-year-old Indian-origin doctor has agreed to pay over $2 million to resolve allegations that he submitted false claims to federally funded health care programs for the surgical implantation of neurostimulator electrodes, according to US Attorney Nicholas J Ganjei. As per an official statement by the US Attorney's Office in the Southern District of Texas, Dr Ajay Aggarwal, an anesthesiologist and pain medicine doctor who also practices in Texas' Bellaire city, Lake Jackson city and Van Vleck (in Matagorda County), used to conduct his medical practice known as The Pain Relief & Wellness Centre. From November 16, 2021, to March 28, 2023, Aggarwal billed federally funded health care programmes, such as Medicare and the Department of Labour's Workers' Compensation Programmes, for the surgical implantation of neurostimulator electrodes. As these are invasive procedures that require use of an operating room, Medicare and other federally funded health care programmes pay thousands of dollars per procedure. However, it was later found that neither Aggarwal nor his staff performed these surgical procedures. Authorities alleged that patients only received devices used for electro-acupuncture, which only involved inserting monofilament wire a few millimetres into patients' ears and taping the neurostimulator behind the ear with an adhesive. As per the allegations, all device placements took place in Aggarwal's clinic, not a hospital or surgical centre, and no incision was made on a patient. 'A doctor who uses simple medical devices on his patients, yet bills Medicare for a sophisticated spinal surgery, is bilking the American taxpayer, plain and simple," said US Attorney Ganjei. As a result, Aggarwal was fined $2 million for billing fraud. 'The Southern District of Texas will ensure that losses to federally funded healthcare programs from fraudulent billing, like what happened here, are recouped and that wrongdoers are held accountable," Ganjei added. An Indian-origin physician admitted guilt last month to federal charges involving the unlawful prescription of powerful opioid medications, which led to the fatal overdoses of two individuals. Sentencing in the case is scheduled for October 31. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.

MyVoice: Views of our readers 14th Aug 2025
Releasing timely pension best gift for freedom fighters This is in response to the article headlined 'Bandi Sanjay orders swift action on freedom fighters' pensions and enemy properties' (THI, August 13). I strongly commend this decision, as it assures justice for our freedom fighters besides ensuring responsible management of national assets. Considering that over 26,000 pension cases are pending, the August 31 deadline to clear all of them is not just administrative efficiency but also a moral duty and a thanksgiving gesture to those who gave us our freedom. The parallel action on enemy properties is equally commendable. Swift pensions and transparent property management together reflect a governance that respects history while securing the nation's future, which is a step every citizen should support. Nooreen Fatima, St Francis College for Women, Hyderabad Organ donation must be encouraged The statistics that emerged on the International Organ Donation Day (August 13) make for dismal news in the Indian context. It is startling that there are only 0.65 donors for every 10-lakh people, whereas it is an overwhelming 30 in Spain and Croatia. Even more tragically alarming is that 15 persons die for want of organs every day. This is a sorry state-of-affairs when we consider the significant strides India is making in the field of medicine and organ transplantation. According to one estimation, approximately two lakh people are waiting for kidney transplantation, and 50k each for liver and heart transplantation. Transplantation among women is very poor vis-à-vis organ donations. A brain-dead person can give life to eight persons if his/her organs are transplanted to those battling for life. There is a need to spread awareness about this humanitarian act, as a measure to curtail organ harvesting rackets. Pratapa Reddy Yaramala, Tiruvuru (AP) Spread awareness about organ donations This has reference to the article 'Raising awareness about importance of organ donation'. Every August 13 is a reminder to one and all about the need for organ donation. It is a gift that offers hope to patients and their family. It is an astounding fact that over three lakh patients in India are looking for Good Samaritan organ donors. I feel medical authorities must educate masses on how to donate organs and thereby save lives, which would be a praiseworthy noble act. G Murali Mohan Rao, Secunderabad-11 Lending a humane touch to World Elephant Day I sincerely appreciate the great initiative undertaken by the Nehru Zoological Park. (Nehru zoo celebrates World Elephant Day with spl. feasts for jumbo inmates-THI). It was heart-touching to read about the special care and attention given to four elephants-Vanaja, Asha, Sita and Vijay. Specially prepared cakes, a 'jumbo feast' and a refreshing three-km walk around the premises epitomise the staff's dedication and genuine concern for animals. By providing a safe environment for their inmates, the zoo serves as a powerful educational platform. These actions help to foster a sense of responsibility and empathy for animals, which in the long-term will be very helpful. Suraiyya Asad, St Francis College for Women, Hyderabad
