Narayana Superspeciality Hospital performs 4 Cochlear Implant Surgeries | | | Early Times Report KATRA, Aug 14: As yet another accomplishment for the SMVD Narayana Superspeciality Hospital (SMVDNSH), its ENT department performed 4 more successful Cochlear Implant Surgeries upon congenitally deaf children having profound bilateral hearing loss. Since the beneficiary children could not hear, they were not able to speak either. The cost of surgeries performed at SMVDNSH was primarily met from the resources of Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board (with families of the children having to share only a nominal part of the whole cost). All the surgeries were carried out under the guidance of Dr Sunil Kotwal (Consultant ENT) by a surgical team led by Dr Rohan Gupta (Consultant ENT) who were ably supported by the anaesthesia team; working in tandem and led by Dr. Pankaj Gupta (HOD Anaesthesia). The post-operative period of patients was managed by Dr. Preeti Gupta (Consultant Paediatrics). "All these surgeries were carried out successfully, free from any complications and all the children have been discharged from the hospital", said Dr Rohan Gupta. He also informed that all the implants have been switched on and from now onwards with the help of vigorous AVT, these children will enter the world of sound. Dr Sunil Kotwal, mentor for the cochlear implant program at SMVDNSH, while appreciating the immense philanthropic contribution of SMVDSB added that SMVDNSH is the only center of excellence in the entire J&K UT where Cochlear Implant Surgeries are being carried out regularly from the last four years. Dr Gopal Sharma, Chief administrative Officer, SMVDNSH mentioned that Shrine Board has always been keen to contribute for the general betterment of the society. |
