Orthopedic
 
The Orthopaedic Department specializes in diagnosing,treating, and managing conditions related to the musculoskeletal system, which includes bones, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. This department focuses on both surgical and non-surgical approaches to address a wide range of orthopaedic issues, aiming to improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance the quality of life for patients.

Common Conditions Treated

  • Fractures and Dislocations: Managing broken bones and dislocated joints through casting, splinting, and surgical interventions.
  • Osteoarthritis: Treating degenerative joint disease that leads to cartilage breakdown, causing pain and stiffness, often managed with medications, physical therapy, or joint
  • replacement.
  • Rheumatoid Arthritis: Addressing autoimmune joint inflammation that can lead to joint damage and deformity, using a combination of medications, physical therapy, and
  • surgery.
  • Sports Injuries: Treating injuries related to physical activity, such as ligament tears (e.g., ACL tears), meniscus injuries, and muscle strains, often through arthroscopic surgery and
  • rehabilitation.
  • Back Pain: Managing conditions affecting the spine, such as herniated discs, scoliosis, and spinal stenosis, with conservative treatments or surgical options.
  • Hip and Knee Replacement: Performing total or partial joint replacements for severe arthritis or joint damage to relieve pain and restore function.
  • Shoulder Disorders: Treating rotator cuff injuries, shoulder impingement, and other shoulder-related conditions through physical therapy or surgical interventions.
  • Hand and Wrist Injuries: Addressing fractures, ligament injuries, and conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, often with surgical repair or minimally invasive procedures.
  • Foot and Ankle Conditions: Managing issues such as fractures, sprains, and deformities (e.g., bunions) through conservative treatment or surgical correction.

Diagnostic Services

  • Imaging Studies: Utilizing X-rays, MRI, CT scans, and ultrasound to diagnose orthopaedic conditions, assess injury severity, and plan treatment.
  • Physical Examination: Conducting thorough physical assessments to evaluate joint function, muscle strength, and range of motion.

Treatment and Management

  • Medications: Prescribing pain relievers, anti-inflammatory drugs, and other medications to manage symptoms and support recovery.
  • Physical Therapy: Providing rehabilitation programs to improve strength, flexibility, and function, and to support recovery from surgery or injury.
  • Orthotic Devices: Recommending or fitting braces, splints, or custom orthotics to support, stabilize, or correct musculoskeletal issues.
  • Surgical Interventions: Performing surgeries such as arthroscopy, joint replacement, fracture fixation, and ligament repair to treat or correct orthopaedic conditions.

Surgical Techniques

  • Arthroscopy: Minimally invasive surgery using a small camera and specialized instruments to diagnose and treat joint issues through small incisions.
  • Joint Replacement: Replacing damaged or diseased joints with artificial implants to restore function and alleviate pain.
    Spinal Surgery: Addressing spinal conditions through procedures such as decompression, fusion, or disc replacement to relieve pain and improve mobility.
  • Fracture Fixation: Using plates, screws, or rods to stabilize and repair broken bones, ensuring proper alignment and healing.
  • Ligament Reconstruction: Reconstructing torn ligaments (e.g.ACL reconstruction) using grafts to restore joint stability and function.

Multidisciplinary Approach

  • Collaborative Care: Working with rheumatologists, physiotherapists, pain specialists, and other healthcare professionals to provide comprehensive care.
  • Preoperative and Postoperative Care: Assessing patients before and after surgery to ensure optimal outcomes, manage pain, and support recovery.
