SUCCESSFUL GASTRIC BALLOON CASE

In frame (Left to Right ): DtAamatulla Y Kapasi, Medical Director - Dr Susan Sodder, Patient - Mrs Mamta More, Dr Darshan Parekh ( Primary Consultant) 

Our first patient of Gastric Balloon who successfully achieved results.

Mrs Mamta More, also had comorbidities like diabetes, blood hypertension, heavy menstruation.

 

Gastric balloon is a non-surgical weight-loss procedure which involves the insertion of a specialized balloon inside the stomach for a period of 6 months to occupy space and limit the food carrying capacity of the stomach. This in turn reduces appetite and thereby helps in achieving weight loss.

 

A decision to insert a gastric balloon was taken as she was unable to lose weight inspite of many attempts.

Her case was monitored by a multidisciplinary team of Gastroenterologist, Registered Dietitian, Gynecologist and Physician.

A regular follow up of the patient by the Gastroenterologist, Gynecologist and Dietician was done. Regular planning and daily monitoring of a Nutritionally balanced disease specific diet considering the macro and micronutrients was taken care of by a Registered Dietitian. Also counseling for lifestyle and behavior modification was done by the Dietitian.

 

All these measures helped her achieve results and stay active.

At the end of 6 months she achieved a weight loss of 12% of her pre - gastric balloon weight.

All her blood parameters have improved significantly and her diabetes, hypertension are now under control.

TOPCON MASETRO 2 OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY

We at Holy Spirit Hospital are delighted to announce the addition of our new OCT machine in the Ophthalmology Department. 

OCT is an excellent technology for performing high resolution cross sectional imaging to visualise different layers of the retina and optic nerve in a living eye. Previously we were only able to see this view of an eye with tissue sections after the patient was deceased or if the eye was removed.

This detailed image of the retina allows to see the retina at a microscopic level and detect various disorders in the retina. OCT is useful for detection and management of age related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, edema due to venous occlusions,macular degenerations in hereditary conditions, post trauma and many other retinal diseases.

 

It is used extensively in the diagnosis and progression of glaucoma, a disease which can cause irreversible blindness. It in also used to acquire anterior segment OCT images, which help in visualisation of angle structures and corneal pathologies. Topcon Maestro 2 not only provides fully automated, high definition OCT images but also enables to acquire retina images which help in documentation and explaining the condition to the patient.

Fujifilm India installs digital mammography machine at Holy Spirit Hospital, Mumbai

Fujifilm India has installed Amulet Innovality — a breast cancer diagnostic machine at the Holy Spirit Hospital in Mumbai. AMULET Innovality works towards making early detection of breast cancer a reality for women by achieving optimum image quality at a very low patient dose. It combines Hexagonal Close Pattern (HCP) image capture technology, and intelligent image processing, optimising contrast, and dose based on breast density which results in exceptional imaging, optimised contrast, low dose, and fast acquisition time. 

 

 

The Innovality utilises Fujifilm’s unique a-Se direct conversion flat panel detector (FPD)*1 to produce clear images with a low X-ray dose. This system makes use of intelligent AEC (i-AEC) combined with an image analysis technology to automatically adjust the X-ray dosage for each breast type. It is a highly advanced mammography system, which offers an extremely fast image interval of just 15 seconds.

 

Chander Shekhar Sibal, Executive Vice President & Head of Medical Division at Fujifilm India, “We have designed this machine to help doctors conduct fast and hassle-free medical examinations with utmost precision. With this association, we aim to save lives by offering the highest standard of healthcare solutions and spread awareness about early detection of breast cancer in India.”

Mumbai: Covid-induced clots now causing near-fatal gangrene in Intestine

Article in THE TIMES OF INDIA

Sunil Gavali is one recent case treated at Holy Spirit Hospital, in which doctors detected a Covid-induced clot in the intestine. The 58-year-old had come to the emergency ward with severe abdominal pain after a meal. The man, an OT staffer at the same hospital, was vaccinated with both doses of Covishield, and there were no usual Covid red flags. When Gavali’s pain didn’t subside with medications, doctors did a CT scan which showed multiple clots in the main artery supplying blood to the intestine, called mesenteric superior.

Vascular surgeon Dr Aniruddha Bhuiyan said there was no time to spare as the clot had led to intestinal gangrene, which if not treated immediately, could become fatal. The surgeon dissolved the clot and cleared it, reversing the gangrene and avoiding a surgery of the intestine that could have been debilitating. “It was my tenth case in the past 8-9 months where Covid and intestinal clot have presented together,” he said, adding that in several cases, patients didn’t come with the typical respiratory signs. “Stomach pain was their only complaint,” he said, adding that Gavali had subsequently tested positive for Covid.
