Trauma and Fracture Care Surgery Services at Dr. Lal Hospital & Research Centre
Dr. Lal Hospital & Research Centre is renowned for its team of highly skilled orthopedic surgeons who specialize in trauma and fracture care. With extensive training and experience, these specialists provide top-notch surgical and non-surgical treatments for various types of fractures and traumatic injuries.
Advanced Diagnostic Capabilities
Dr. Lal Hospital & Research Centre utilizes digital X-ray technology for quick and precise imaging of fractures and traumatic injuries. Digital X-rays provide high-resolution images that allow for accurate assessment of bone alignment, fracture patterns, and the extent of injury.
Computed Tomography (CT) Scans:The hospital is equipped with advanced CT scanners that offer detailed cross-sectional images of bones and soft tissues. CT scans are particularly useful for complex fractures, multi-trauma cases, and for visualizing areas that are difficult to assess with standard X-rays.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI):MRI technology at Dr. Lal Hospital & Research Centre provides detailed images of soft tissues, including ligaments, tendons, muscles, and cartilage. MRI is essential for diagnosing associated soft tissue injuries that may accompany fractures and for planning comprehensive treatment strategies.
Ultrasound Imaging:Ultrasound is a non-invasive diagnostic tool used to assess soft tissue damage, such as ligament and tendon injuries, that may occur alongside fractures. It is particularly useful in emergency settings for quick evaluation of injuries.
Portable Imaging Systems: Dr. Lal Hospital has portable imaging systems that can be used directly at the patient’s bedside or in the operating room. These systems are essential for trauma patients who are unable to be moved easily and for real-time imaging during surgical procedures.
Precision Treatment Options
Dr. Lal Hospital & Research Centre receives a personalized treatment plan tailored to their specific injury and overall health condition. The multidisciplinary team takes into account the type and severity of the fracture, patient age, activity level, and any underlying health issues to develop an effective treatment strategy.
Minimally Invasive Surgical Techniques: Whenever possible, the hospital’s orthopedic surgeons employ minimally invasive surgical techniques to treat fractures. These methods, such as arthroscopic surgery and percutaneous fixation, reduce surgical trauma, minimize pain, and shorten recovery times, enabling patients to return to their daily activities more quickly.
Advanced Internal Fixation: For fractures requiring surgical intervention, Dr. Lal Hospital & Research Centre utilizes advanced internal fixation techniques. This includes the use of metal plates, screws, and rods to stabilize broken bones, ensuring proper alignment and promoting efficient healing.
External Fixation Devices: In cases of severe fractures or when internal fixation is not possible, external fixation devices are used. These devices stabilize bones using a frame outside the body, allowing for proper healing while minimizing the risk of infection and other complications.
Non-Surgical Treatment Options: For less severe fractures, Dr. Lal Hospital & Research Centre provides a range of non-surgical treatment options. These include casting, splinting, and bracing to immobilize the affected area and allow natural healing. Functional bracing and rehabilitation programs are also employed to maintain mobility and strength during recovery.
