Orthopaedics

The Department of Orthopaedics at Pushpagiri Medical College Hospital offers a range of interventions and surgeries to address various orthopaedic conditions and injuries. This department is staffed by highly experienced and skilled orthopaedic surgeons dedicated to providing comprehensive care to their patients.

Interventions in Orthopaedics

Diagnosis and Evaluation: The department offers specialised diagnostic services, including X-rays, MRI scans, CT scans, and bone density tests, to accurately diagnose orthopaedic conditions.

Non-surgical Treatments: The orthopaedic team provides non-surgical interventions such as medications, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and rehabilitation programmes to manage orthopaedic conditions.

Orthotics and Prosthetics: The department also offers custom-made orthotic devices, such as braces, splints, and shoe inserts, to support and align specific areas of the body. Prosthetic limbs are also provided to patients who have undergone amputations.

Minimally Invasive Procedures: The department specialises in minimally invasive procedures, including arthroscopy, which allows surgeons to diagnose and treat joint problems using small incisions and a tiny camera called an arthroscope.

TKR, which stands for Total Knee Replacement, is a surgical procedure performed in the orthopaedics department of Pushpagiri Medical College Hospital. It involves replacing a damaged knee joint with an artificial implant to reduce pain and improve mobility. The procedure typically takes a few hours and requires a hospital stay of a few days. Skilled orthopaedic surgeons use advanced techniques and equipment to ensure a successful outcome. Post-surgery, patients rehabilitate to regain strength and function in the knee joint. Pushpagiri Medical College Hospital offers comprehensive care and support to patients undergoing TKR, ensuring a smooth recovery process.
