Vishal Bhatnagar/Meerut: Modernity is now visible in health services also. In which patients are being given better treatment using various technologies. In this series, the Orthopedic Department of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Hospital operating in the Lala Lajpat Rai Medical College campus of Meerut has also started the process of hip replacement using mobile software.
Dr. Dnyaneshwar Tonk, Head of the Orthopedic Department of the Medical College, in a special conversation with the team of Local-18, said that hip replacement in patients is a complex surgery. Which should be done with great accuracy and efficiency. For this, robotic surgery is used in many places. Which is quite expensive. As an alternative, mobile software is used in Hyderabad. This technology has been used for the first time in Meerut Medical College. Through which a patient has undergone hip replacement. He is absolutely successful. In the coming time, other patients will also be able to benefit through this technology.
less chance of error
Dr. Dnyaneshwar Tonk said that hip replacement can be done with the help of mobile software as an alternative to robotic surgery. Using this method reduces the margin of error and helps in inserting the implant accurately. The results of this surgery are similar to robotic surgery. He told that the special thing is that there is no need to spend any kind of money to use this technology. Rather, only the software of this technology is used. He said that Dr. Kritesh Mishra and his team from the Orthopedic Department of the Medical College, who came from Hyderabad to learn the technique, have made better use of this technique.
The patient will be able to get benefit
Let us tell you that Meerut Medical College has made great achievements. Because patients from the districts of Western UP come here for treatment. In such a situation, when the patient gets treatment through this technology, he will no longer need to go to other states including Delhi. The patient’s operation is done free of cost under the Ayushman Bharat scheme. Not only this, if a person does not have Ayushman card. So according to private hospitals, it will be available in medical colleges at a very low rate.
