DISORDERS Treated

Epilepsy
       Epilepsy is a condition characterized by the propensity to have recurrent seizures ("fits"). It is one of the most common neurological disorders seen in children. The control of epilepsy is achieved mainly through the appropriate use of anti-epileptic medication. Drug treatment, when properly administered, can result in effective seizure control in 70% - 80% of people with epilepsy; however, epilepsy may be refractory to drug therapy in a small but significant number of patients. They may need complimentary treatments like resective surgery.
Syncope
       Syncope (fainting) is defined as falling down and being unconscious for a short period of time. Usually, there is complete recovery in a matter of seconds or a few minutes. Fainting is a symptom and not a disease. It occurs due to temporary reduction of blood supply to the brain. There are many different reasons for fainting.
Neuropathies
       The brain and spinal cord constitute the central nervous system while the nerves coming from them and connecting to the muscle constitute the peripheral nervous system. These nerves allow you to move your body parts and also to appreciate feelings such as pain, temperature, touch and limb position from the surface of your body. They also connect to internal organs that allow involuntary actions such as breathing, sexual function and digestion. Any damage to the nerves of the peripheral nervous system is called peripheral neuropathy.
Myasthenia
       Myasthenia gravis is a disease causing fluctuating muscle weakness. It can affect any skeletal muscle of the body, however the limb, swallowing and eye movement muscles are more commonly affected
Headaches
       Headaches are caused in several different ways. Although migraines are the most common form of headache, different types of migraine headaches will require different treatment modalities. Proper classification and treatment selection is critical.
Stroke
       A stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of the brain is suddenly interrupted or when a blood vessel in the brain bursts, spilling blood into the spaces surrounding brain cells. Thrombolysis is a special form of treatment that helps in breaking arterial blocking blood clots by means of interarterial as well as intervenous drugs. AIMS is also a recognized referral centre for carotid endarterectomy.

Other disorders treated are:

Parkinson's disease and other movement disorders

Wilson's disease

Vertigo

Neuromuscular disorders

Critical care neurology

Fibromyalgia syndrome

Childhood neurological problems

Neurological complications of HIV infection

What is the first step?

              At our Hospital, the diagnosis of Pulmonology problems is performed with a physical examination and gathering of medical history.

              It is followed by: Blood tests: A sample of the blood is examined to check for blood platelet counts, oxygen and carbon dioxide levels as well as cancer cells.
1.Spirometry: This test determines the volume and speed of air flow inhaled or exhaled by your lungs. You will be asked to take a deep breath and exhale into the device which then displays the volume and rate of air flow, thus throwing light on any abnormalities or obstructions.
2.Bronchoscopy: A bronchoscope is used to review the inside of the airways and lungs for any potential obstructions or abnormalities.
3.Image tests: Tests such as Chest X- rays or CT-scans are used to identify possible structural abnormalities of the respiratory system

How can we help you?

              Depending on the diagnosis of your respiratory condition, our team recommends the most effective choice of treatment.Our lung treatment plans extend to psychological support, health education and advanced care planning as respiratory problems significantly impact the quality and length of the patient’s life.

They may include certain conditions such as exposure to toxins and allergens. Prolonged exposure to certain elements such as tobacco smoke, asbestos, coal mining fumes and certain types of animals usually bring about respiratory disorders. Our treatment plan will, in such cases, focus on reducing the exposure to those elements while combating the symptoms caused by the exposure.

UROLOGY : -

              The urinary system, also called the renal system, is susceptible to infections, injuries, blockages and other problems. These problems should be treated by a specialist who has relevant experience in this niche area.

              Sunrise Hospital features a highly respected team of urology experts and the latest equipment to bring prompt medical attention and treatment to care seekers.

What is Urology??

              Urology is a subspecialty of surgery that mostly deals with diseases that are related to the urinary tract of both, the male and female body as well as the male reproductive system. Also, being a branch of surgery, it caters to those individuals with urinary conditions that are usually managed surgically, i.e., either minimally invasive, endoscopic or open. These include conditions such as tumours, obstructions, stones, and more.

              At Sunrise Hospital, our Urology Centre comprises of a team of specialists, who each provide complete care and comfort across all urology services and treatment categories, ranging from commonly faced disorders such as kidney stones to extreme medical cases such as uro-oncology.

What is the first step?

              At our Urology Centre, the diagnosis of urology problems and diseases begins with a physical examination and review of medical history.

It is followed by specific tests such as:
Blood Tests – A blood sample is taken to check for haemoglobin, platelets, sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, urea, creatinine, calcium, magnesium, or phosphate levels.

              The primary focus is to detect if the kidneys are functioning normally, or if there are issues that are affecting kidney function.

Imaging Tests – Tests such as cystoscopy, ultrasound, computerised scan (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans are used to identify any abnormal structures or growth in the urinary tract system.

              Depending on the diagnosis of your condition, our team of urologists will recommend the ideal treatment procedure that will provide a complete cure. While cases vary from individual to individual, some of the commonly prescribed urology treatments include Uroflowmetry, Voiding Cytometry and Electromyography (EMG).Our urology service matrix is also extended to psychological support, health awareness & education and advanced care planning.

Certain cases may require extensive care and specific treatment procedures.

Urinary bladder infection – Also known as Painful bladder syndrome, it is a condition that has no known cause. Treatment for this urology disorder focuses on relieving the symptoms through a combination of treatments.

Impaired kidney function – Supplements may be provided to improve the production of red blood cells. Activated vitamin D supplements and phosphate binders are often suggested to prevent the effects of kidney failure on bone metabolism. Kidney and ureteral stones – The formation and build-up of crystals in the urinary tract system would lead to blockage of the urine flow, causing a considerable amount of pain. Treatment focuses on removing the obstruction while reducing the possibility of long term damage.

DIABETOLOGY : -

What is Diabetes?

              Also known as a silent killer, Diabetes is a disorder that can lead to several life-threatening complications. Here is a side of India which we must acquaint ourselves with that India is among the top three countries in the world with the highest diabetic population.

              At Sunrise Hospital we repeatedly reinforce that Diabetes is a disorder and not a disease. It is a condition that is very much in our control to manage. It is the core belief that drives our team of highly skilled and experienced diabetologists.

What is Diabetology?

              Diabetology is the speciality branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes. Diabetes is a condition wherein glucose does not reach the cells, thus making them starve for energy. It could be due to very low levels of insulin in the blood or reduced ability of the body to use insulin. Insulin is a hormone that is secreted by the pancreas, which in turn, helps our cells absorb glucose. Consistent high levels of blood sugar could lead to serious complications such as heart, eye, foot or kidney diseases.

              At Sunrise Hosptial, we aim to make diabetes ‘disease-free' by delivering the best outcomes through a patient-centric care model which combines comprehensive clinical care with sustained lifestyle management and some behavioural changes in the individual.

What is the first step?

              At our Diabetology Centre, the first step is to understand the type of diabetes that has affected the individual.

There are four types of diabetes, each having their course of management. The symptoms and treatment measures of each type of diabetes are detailed below:

1.Type 1 Diabetes or Insulin-dependent Diabetes – Also known as Juvenile Diabetes, this type of diabetes develops in children or young adults and is less prevalent. It is an auto-immune condition, wherein the body's immune system destroys the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas, thus creating a lack of insulin in the body. Type 1 Diabetes can be managed by lifelong insulin supplementation, diet control and exercise.

2.Type 2 Diabetes or Non-insulin Dependent Diabetes – This type is the most prevalent and mostly affects middle-aged and older adults. In this condition, insulin is produced in insufficient amounts. Hereditary and lifestyle factors such as low physical activity, being overweight or obese, sedentary lifestyle, and more contribute to the development of Type 2 Diabetes.A common symptom of Type 2 diabetes is the presence of dark velvety skin on the neck and armpits. Treatment and prevention strategies for this kind of diabetes focus on medication and lifestyle interventions such as a regular physical activity and a balanced diet.

“Another critical component of managing this condition is self-monitoring of blood glucose.”

3.Gestational Diabetes – This type of diabetes is a temporary condition that arises during the second trimester of pregnancy and then disappears. Gestation Diabetes Management (GDM) is a team effort of intensive monitoring and insulin. Typically, a GDM team at Sunrise Hospital Clinic comprises of an obstetrician, diabetes physician, a diabetes educator, and paediatrician.

4.Pre-diabetes – Though technically not a type of Diabetes, Pre-diabetes is a condition that needs careful monitoring. It is a state where an individual’s blood sugar is higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed with diabetes. It indicates a high-risk of diabetes and also the onset of heart or blood vessel diseases. Pre-diabetes can be managed by following a balanced diet, appropriate physical activity and maintaining a healthy weight to delay or prevent the progression.
