Dehradun. In a complicated case, a small child’s pacemaker has been changed in Graphic Era Hospital, creating a new history in the medical field. Along with this, 20 people have been cured with the help of ‘Poyam’, a new technique for non-invasive treatment of obstruction of the alimentary canal. Specialist doctors of Graphic Era Hospital, in a formal conversation with journalists today, informed about these great achievements for the first time in Uttarakhand. Graphic Era’s cardiologist Dr. Raj Pratap Singh said that for the first time in the state, the hybrid technique was used for Endo Cardial to replace the pacemaker in the heart of a four-year-old child of Dehradun. The pacemaker has been installed in this third place by making a tunnel in the stomach. Now even after the development of the body for many years, there will be no need for any change.

Dr. Raj told that this child was fitted with a pacemaker at the age of about one year after the operation of a hole in the heart. After that, the pacemaker was changed when there was an infection. By the time the child is four years old, growth in the body has caused the pacemaker wires to shrink and it has become necessary to replace them before they break. In such a situation, a pacemaker was installed in Graphic Era Hospital by creating a tunnel from below his shoulder to below his stomach with hybrid technology. In this, it was kept in mind that the pacemaker should not be affected by the development of the body with age. For the next 10 to 12 years, this pacemaker will be his companion in his normal life and development.

Specialists Dr. Akhilesh Pandey, Dr. Raj Pratap Singh, and Dr. S. in the team of the heart disease department performed this operation. P. Gautam was involved. Yesterday this child was discharged from the hospital. This is the first and most successful operation in Uttarakhand. Dr. Sachin Munjal, a Specialist in Gastroenterology, at Graphic Era Hospital, has successfully treated 20 patients suffering from esophageal obstruction without surgery using the Poem technique. This technique is also new for Uttarakhand.

Dr. Puneet Tyagi, director of operations and renowned pulmonology specialist at Graphic Era Hospital, said that the operation theater is equipped with the world’s latest technologies, advanced cath lab, advanced coronary care unit, 128 slices CT scan machine with very low radiation, which helps in cardiac angiography. Can also be done and with state-of-the-art technology 3 Tesla MRI machine, the best medical facilities are being provided in the hospital even in complex cases. Dr. Tyagi said that facilities like Cardiology, Nephrology, Gastro-Endology, Plastic Surgery, and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit have been added to the Graphic Era Hospital with new techniques. Ayushman card holders are also getting their benefits.
