Machine installed in AIIMS Bhubaneswar for neurosurgery patients
AIIMS Bhubaneswar is the first Hospital in the state to set up a state-of-art machine called Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring. Installed in the department of neurosurgery, this machine will come in aid of the surgeons during complicated surgeries involving the nervous system such as brain and spinal cord thus reducing the post surgery risk of neurological deficits. A team consisting of a surgeon, anesthesiologist and a neurophysiologist have performed a surgery successfully using the procedure on a neuro paralytic patient with high spinal cord tumour.
