Bilaspur, September 28, 2024: While highlighting the importance of a comprehensive team approach in managing critical emergency cardiac patients, Dr Deepak Puri a senior CTVS surgeon at Max hospital, Mohali said that the patients managed by a comprehensive team approach in the last decade showed less ICU and hospital stay with mortality rate declining significantly.
Dr Puri was speaking at a 6th CME and conference of North Chapter of Anatomists Society at AIIMS, Bilaspur on Saturday.
The most challenging critical situation is acute ischemic heart failure. The team approach is necessary for better outcomes as well as reducing the cost involved, he maintained.
Talking about video assisted thoracoscopic surgeries (VATS), Dr Puri said that it has an advantage of making thoracic surgery minimally invasive without compromising on outcome.
The advent of uniportal VATS in the last decade has simplified thoracoscopic surgeries with several advantages, he pointed out.
Dr Puri also emphasized that new advancements of 3-dimensional imaging technology and advent of artificial intelligence help in establishing a more precise knowledge of the disease thereby facilitating the performance of surgery.
Prof. S.K.Gupta from neurosurgery department , PGI Chandigarh also delivered a talk on the role of 3D anatomical insights in neurosurgery.
