                                  Anesthesiology

                                  KIMSHEALTH's Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine provides top-level anaesthetic care to the patients. Each year, anesthesiologists look after over a lakh patients.

                                  What does Anesthesia mean?

                                  Anesthesia uses special drugs called anaesthetics to prevent pain during surgeries or medical procedures. These drugs block pain signals from travelling through your nerves to your brain. Different types of anesthesia have different purposes. Some numb a specific area of your body. Others work by making your brain numb, helping you sleep during major surgeries.

                                  Types of Anesthesia

                                  The choice of anesthesia depends on what procedure you are having and how extensive it is. Here are the options:

                                  • Local anesthesia: This makes a small part of your body numb. Doctors often use this type to perform minor procedures like skin biopsies or cataract surgeries. You stay awake during these procedures.
                                  • Sedation: Also called "twilight sleep," this anesthesia makes you relaxed enough to drift off but still able to wake up if doctors need to talk to you. Wisdom teeth removal, cardiac catheterisation, and some colonoscopies often involve sedation. You don't lose full consciousness, but you won't recall much about the procedure after it's done.
                                  • Regional anesthesia: This anesthesia numbs a bigger section of your body, like a whole limb or everything below your chest. Examples include an epidural to lessen labour pain or nerve block. Doctors may pair regional anesthesia with sedation, or they might use it on its own.
                                  • General anesthesia: This approach puts you in a deep sleep and blocks pain or other sensations. Doctors often use it to perform major surgeries on the head, chest, or abdomen.

                                  Endocrinology

                                  Getting a new health diagnosis can feel intense and difficult to process. When dealing with hormone-related conditions such as diabetes or thyroid issues, an endocrinologist becomes essential. They have specialised knowledge and stay updated on the latest treatments. For long-term conditions, it’s crucial to find someone you trust because you’ll depend on their guidance over time.

                                  The KIMSHEALTH Division of Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism provides care to address hormonal and metabolic problems, including those linked to diabetes, thyroid, and pituitary health. The team focuses on delivering care with compassion, conducting new research and promoting healthier ways of living.

                                  At KIMSHEALTH, experienced endocrinologists study the link between diet and illnesses to help people stay healthy. They are skilled in treating a variety of issues related to endocrine glands. The team collaborates with specialists in surgery, radiation oncology, ophthalmology, obstetrics, transplantation, and other fields to address health concerns from multiple perspectives. The endocrine system includes glands like the pancreas, thyroid, adrenal, pituitary, parathyroid, hypothalamus and pineal as well as organs like the ovaries and testes. Other parts of the body involved in processing or responding to hormones are also part of this system.

                                  What do Our Endocrinologists Handle?

                                  Endocrinologists at KIMSHEALTH identify and create care plans for endocrine-related issues. Their responsibilities include:

                                  Have you ever wanted a single place to address all your family’s health issues? At KIMSHEALTH, family medicine care teams focus on giving complete and organised care to everyone in the family—from newborns to the elderly.

                                  What is a Family Physician?

                                  Family doctors focus on treating you as an entire individual. Unlike specialists who focus on one disease or body part, family physicians are trained to meet your health needs regardless of your gender or age. Family medicine is built on a personal and ongoing relationship between you and your physician. Together, we aim to reach the best possible health results while managing costs. Besides treating and diagnosing both chronic and short-term illnesses, your family doctor helps with regular health check-ups and advises you on ways to avoid getting sick in the first place. If you ever need help from a specialist for a specific health issue, the KIMSHEALTH Family Medicine team supports you by managing your care and ensuring everything runs smoothly. They help you navigate the complicated health system if you need to see multiple specialists.

                                  Family doctors are trained to care for people at every stage of life, from babies to seniors, and they are skilled in several important medical fields, including:

                                  • Ongoing issues like diabetes, asthma, or heart problems.
                                  • Sudden troubles such as breathing infections, chest or belly pain, and headaches.
                                  • Health checks to screen chronic diseases, give vaccines, and offer tips to eat right and exercise to stay well.
                                  • Care for problems related to ears, noses, and throats
                                  • Small surgical treatments

                                  • Family doctors know a lot about typical health problems people face in the community and also about rare medical emergencies that can be serious. They base their care on the strongest scientific research available to ensure patients get the best possible outcomes.

                                  General & Minimally Invasive Surgery

                                  If you are having surgery, whether planned ahead or sudden, it is a significant moment in your life. The Department of General and Minimally Invasive Surgery at KIMSHEALTH is always here for you to ensure you feel at ease during treatment.

                                  Our experienced surgeons and staff come together as a caring team to handle a wide range of medical issues, from simple to more challenging cases. The team takes a collaborative approach to pinpoint problems and take quick action with surgery when needed. We specialise in both general procedures and less invasive surgical techniques.

                                  General and Minimally Invasive Surgery use different methods to perform surgeries with less harm to the body compared to open surgery. This type of surgery causes less pain, decreases hospital stays, and reduces the risk of complications. Laparoscopic surgery involves making one or more small cuts and utilises slender tubes, small cameras, and surgical tools.

                                  Advancements in minimally invasive techniques provide an effective choice to treat many conditions. If surgery is required and you believe this method could work for you, discuss it with our surgeons at the Department of General and Minimally Invasive Surgery.

                                  Who Can Choose Minimally Invasive Surgery?

                                  Minimally invasive surgery is often safer than traditional open surgery in many cases. Some patients who cannot undergo open surgery might still qualify for minimally invasive procedures. But these techniques can take more time and may need preparation in advance. This makes them less suitable in emergencies or when doctors aren't sure about your condition yet.

                                  Laparoscopic surgery may not be the best option for people with certain heart or lung problems. It involves using gases to inflate the abdominal area to separate organs from the abdominal wall. These gases might raise the chances of heart or lung issues in some patients during surgery. The surgeon will evaluate your specific risks before suggesting this approach.

                                  Interventional radiologists identify and manage various diseases. They work by using small tools like catheters or wires, which they insert into the body from the outside. To guide these procedures, they use imaging techniques such as X-rays, CT scans, and ultrasounds. Interventional radiology provides an alternative to surgery in many situations. It can sometimes even remove the need to stay in a hospital.

                                  Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation

                                  Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, often called physiatry, focuses on helping people regain abilities lost because of illness, injury, or a medical condition.

                                  Physiatry takes a complete approach to recovery by combining different types of care to restore the overall well-being of patients. It looks after their physical health, emotional state, medical issues, work potential, and social life. A physician trained in this area is known as a physiatrist. Rehabilitation helps people regain their highest ability to function, live, and enjoy a good quality of life. It does not fix or undo the harm caused by illness or injury. Instead, it focuses on returning the person to their best possible health, abilities, and overall well-being. To rehabilitate means to make capable.

                                  Rehabilitation medicine focuses on meeting the unique needs of each individual. This means every program is tailored to the person. Common parts of rehab programs often include:

                                  • Addressing the main illness and stopping complications
                                  • Working on disabilities to improve abilities
                                  • Offering tools that make tasks easier and changing living spaces
                                  • Guiding patients and their families to adjust to new life changes

                                  Rehab works well when multiple factors come together, such as:

                                  • How severe or advanced the disease, disorder, or injury is
                                  • The kind and level of impairments or disabilities it causes
                                  • How healthy the patient is overall
                                  • Support offered by the family

                                  The Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery department provides a full range of treatments to address many aesthetic issues. Some common functional problems include difficulty breathing through the nose, injuries, muscle weakness or paralysis, and skin cancer needing surgical repair. Cosmetic issues include sagging eyelids or eyebrows, wanting a smaller nose through rhinoplasty, or loose skin around the neck. The surgeons here have deep expertise in all these areas even in complex or delicate cases. They receive referrals for challenging situations that others cannot manage.

                                  Our surgeons are trained in microvascular surgery for head and neck reconstruction. This training equips them to fix large and difficult defects in these areas often caused by cancer or severe injuries, by using a method called "free tissue transfer." In these surgeries, they move tissue from parts of the body, like the arm, leg, or abdomen, to the head or neck. They reconnect the blood supply to the moved tissue by stitching tiny blood vessels together. These delicate steps take place under a high-powered microscope.

                                  Thinking about Plastic Surgery?

                                  The first thing to do when thinking about plastic surgery is to meet with a surgeon to talk about your goals, other options, and the possible risks and benefits of different procedures. After you and the surgeon agree on a treatment plan, they'll schedule your surgery. Depending on your case, the procedure might take place either as an inpatient or outpatient. The surgery team will provide care after the operation.

                                  Psychiatry & Behavioral Medicine

                                  How is a Psychiatrist Different from a Psychologist?

                                  Psychiatrists are medical doctors trained to diagnose and treat mental, emotional and behavioural health issues. They can prescribe medicines or offer other medical treatments. Psychologists focus on supporting mental health through talk therapy, evaluations and testing. They help individuals understand and manage emotions, mental conditions and relationships.

                                  The Department of Rheumatology and Clinical Immunology handles illnesses that occur when issues arise in the body’s immune system. Think of the immune system as the body’s security team built to protect us from harm. But when it goes wrong, it attacks the body’s own cells and tissues instead of protecting them. These problems result in what we call autoimmune diseases.

                                  Autoimmune diseases range from mild problems to serious or even deadly illnesses. These conditions often affect different parts of the body all at once. Doctors use a thorough method to diagnose and manage them. An autoimmune disease might affect the skin, weaken muscles, cause joint pain like arthritis, or even harm organs like the lungs or kidneys. A good specialist looks at all these symptoms together to decide on the right treatment plan.

                                  Many used to think autoimmune diseases were uncommon, but they are widespread. The main problem is that people know too little about them. This leads to long delays in diagnosing the illness, which means patients don’t get the help they need.

                                  If you notice signs affecting several organs in your body at the same time, you should visit a specialist like a Rheumatologist or Clinical Immunologist.

                                  Rheumatologists at KIMSHEALTH work as part of a team to deliver advanced diagnosis and care. They focus on autoimmune and inflammatory conditions that involve the musculoskeletal system, such as issues in joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

                                  At KIMSHEALTH, the specialists under the leadership of Dr S Rajesh team up with doctors from different fields based on the type of rheumatologic disease. They also stay in contact with your regular doctor to make sure your care is consistent and transitions are smooth when needed. By working together, they provide well-rounded care aimed at taking care of your unique health requirements.

                                  Available Treatments and Services in the Department

                                  At KIMSHEALTH, rheumatologists treat patients dealing with diseases and conditions that impact the body's connective tissues. To figure out the best treatment plan tailored to your needs, rheumatologists collaborate with a team of doctors skilled in various specialities.
