*EMC Hospital, Amritsar* is proud to announce that its Department of Spine and Neuro Surgery has been providing exceptional care for over 15 years. Under the leadership of *Dr. Rishab Arora*, the department is well-equipped to manage complex cases of spine trauma, diseases, and head injuries.
*Spine Trauma and Diseases:*
Spine trauma often results from accidents, falls, or sports injuries, leading to conditions such as fractures, dislocations, and spinal cord injuries. Common spinal diseases include herniated discs, spinal stenosis, and degenerative disc disease, all of which can cause significant pain, reduced mobility, and in severe cases, paralysis if not treated promptly.
*Benefits of Spine Surgery:*
Spine surgery offers multiple benefits, including pain relief, restored mobility, and prevention of further spinal cord and nerve damage. Advanced techniques, particularly those involving minimally invasive procedures available at EMC, contribute to faster recovery times and improved surgical outcomes. Timely spine surgery can greatly enhance a patient’s quality of life and prevent long-term complications.
*Types of Head Injuries:*
Head injuries range from mild concussions to severe traumatic brain injuries (TBI), which can result from road accidents, falls, or violent incidents. These injuries can lead to loss of consciousness, memory issues, and long-term cognitive impairments.
*Benefits of Timely Head Injury Surgery:*
Early surgical intervention in head injuries is crucial. It can prevent secondary brain damage, reduce swelling, and alleviate pressure on the brain, thereby improving survival rates and reducing the risk of long-term disabilities. EMC’s dedicated trauma and critical care team is available 24×7 to handle such emergencies.
*EMC’s Advanced Facilities:*
For the highest standards in spine and neuro surgery, EMC has a fully dedicated modular operating theater (OT) and the latest high-end microscope specifically designed for neuro surgeries. These facilities ensure precision and accuracy in complex surgical procedures.
*Critical Role of Trauma Care:*
Trauma critical care plays a vital role in the treatment of both head injuries and spine trauma. EMC’s round-the-clock critical care team is essential in managing these cases, ensuring that patients receive immediate and appropriate care to prevent further complications.
*Elective Neuro and Spine Surgeries:*
In addition to emergency care, EMC also specializes in elective neuro and spine surgeries. These procedures are planned and executed with the highest level of care, providing patients with solutions for long-standing neurological and spinal conditions.
