Our trainer, Mark, demonstrates how manual handling injuries are caused by taking a look at a model spinal cord.

Manual handling injuries are responsible for over a third of all workplace injuries according to the Health and Safety Executive statistics. Therefore, it is important for employers and employees to understand how and why these injuries occur because these injuries can be prevented.

Manual handling tasks can create unnecessary risk for both physical and mental health. Sudden physical injuries are also probable if safe manual handling procedures are not attended to.

The risk due to inappropriate manual handling means that workplace manual handling training is an essential component of organisations compliance training.

As an employer, there are consequences of not taking care of the physical safety of your employees. Save your employees and save your business by having a proper manual handling workplace training in place.

Blood in the urine (known as hematuria) is a common occurrence that elicits prostate cancer fears in many men and usually results in an uncomfortable cystoscopy to check for the presence of bladder cancer. In this video, PCRI’s CEO, Alex Scholz, asks Executive Director, Mark Scholz, MD, about hematuria, whether it is a symptom of prostate cancer, and Dr. Scholz offers information about a urine test that could circumvent the need for an invasive cystoscopy.

0:15 Is the presence of blood in the urine a symptom of prostate cancer?

Blood in the urine is very rarely an indicator of prostate cancer. More commonly it is a symptom of previous radiation, bladder cancer, kidney stones, or prostatitis.

1:03 Historically, a cystoscopy was required to test for the presence of bladder cancer; however, there is now a urine test called CXbladder that can be a substitute for the cystoscopy. A scan would still be required to check for kidney stones and other diagnostic criteria.
