Diathermy has a long history of use and a generally good safety record. Surgical diathermy has been around for 50 years and is a trusted surgical aid. Despite significant advancements in medical electronics, the original diathermy design hasn’t changed much over the years.    It is pivotal to know that diathermy, particularly in association with other

Although there was initial scepticism about minimally invasive procedures, the integration with Endovision improved the quality of vision and compensated for the loss of tactile sensation. This established the legitimacy and usefulness of laparoscopic procedures in day-to-day practice. The precision, flexibility, and control of laparoscopic procedures have made it a choice of method for diagnosis

As we enter the modern day, we are witnessing the dawn of contemporary trends where surgical procedures are often being performed through minimal access techniques. The use of such techniques has resulted in shorter recovery times and decreased postoperative morbidity.1 Earlier, certain drawbacks including two-dimensional vision and inferior quality of images were seen more often

The LASER (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) technology celebrates its 62nd anniversary this year. The term -” LASER” was first coined by Charles Townes in 1951. But it took almost 40 years to build the first working prototype of a laser. Since then, the advancement and newer inventions in laser technology have made it the

Minimal access surgeries are now widely used in several urology procedures. There has been a drastic development of minimally invasive surgery in urology during the last three decades. A lot is expected to come when we look ahead in the coming years. Common procedures that involve the management of urolithiasis, renal tumour, and localized prostate

Every human labor is characterized by uterine contractions, that cause transient interruptions of fetal oxygen. Most fetuses tolerate this process well, but some fail to do so. In such situations, monitoring the fetal heart rate helps to differentiate the former from the latter as it indirectly indicates fetal cardiac and central nervous system responses to

Colorectal surgeons also known as proctologists use proctoscopy (performed using a proctoscope) to widen the anal cavity so that they can get a proper view of what’s inside. Colorectal surgeons are the doctors that treat conditions related to the colon or rectum such as colorectal cancer, polyps, anal fistula, fissures, hemorrhoids, etc.   It’s kind of

In India, the lack of attention to thermoregulation continues to be a cause of neonatal deaths. Due to their low birth weight, newborns are particularly vulnerable to hypothermia. Since these babies cannot maintain their body temperature on their own, they require artificial assistance in regulating their body temperature. And when we talk about infant-care equipment,

One of the critical steps during any surgery is administering vasoconstrictor/vasopressor agents such as vasopressin. It is a standard practice to inject these agents during laparoscopic or any other surgical procedures that causes temporary shrinkage of blood vessels to minimize the blood loss. In addition, it also causes intra-operative changes in pulse, blood pressure and

While setting up a healthcare facility, hospital furniture is one of the top-most necessities that need to be considered. Not only does it boost patient comfort but also, it’s essential for medical professionals and practitioners who spend long hours in the facility. Hence, providing us with the right furniture is beyond simple commercial shopping. Innovation
