ITM Hospital of Orthopaedics Care

Overview

Orthopedics Department, ITM Hospital and Research Center, Gwalior is a reliable provider of medical services to patients with bone, joint and spine issues. With the growing prevalence of arthritis, fractures, osteoporosis, ligament ruptures, back pain, joint dislocations, and spinal conditions, the increased demand on specialist orthopedic assistance is never as high as ever. One of the key areas that the department deals with is management of arthritis which is one of the leading causes of joint pain and disability. Combination of medications, physiotherapy, lifestyle modification, joint injections and when necessary, advanced joint replacement surgery is beneficial for patients with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and post traumatic arthritis. Our hospital has the capacity to perform knee replacement surgery, hip replacement surgery as well as shoulder replacement surgery and places minimal invasive surgery that leads to faster recovery and a positive outcome in the long run.

Another area of orthopedic care that is of utmost importance is fractures and accident related injuries. The trauma unit of the hospital is 24/7 so that it can receive the cases of emergencies and provide immediate treatment in terms of fracture repair, orthopedic implants, and reconstruction of the trauma. It can be either a plain fracture or multi-injury case, our surgeons will make sure that everything is done on time to minimize complications and allow the patient to move. Spine issues and back pain are becoming a prevalent case among the patients of both young and old age. Sciatica, degenerative spine disorders, spinal stenosis, scoliosis, slipped disc and a combination of medications, physiotherapy, spinal injections, and other minimally invasive surgeries on the spine are effectively carried out at ITM Hospital. Our spinal experts also perform spinal fusions as well as spinal deformity surgeries, which contribute to the long-term resolution of chronic back pain in the patients.

The department is also specialized in the treatment of osteoporosis and fragility fractures that are usually common in the older adults. Our experts use prevention of fractures by way of early diagnosis, lifestyle counseling, and bone strength medication. When cases of fragility fractures are involved, surgical fixation and rehabilitation of patients would enable them to gain a sense of independence. Another strength of the Orthopedics Department in the ITM Hospital is sports medicine. The most prevalent injuries among athletes and active persons include ACL tears, meniscus tears, rotator cuff tears and shoulder dislocations which are treated with the help of advanced arthroscopy, ligament reconstruction, and structured rehabilitation therapy. Such minimally invasive procedures guarantee reduced pain and reduced scars and quicker recovery to sport or everyday activities.

Our pediatric orthopedics services include children with orthopedic issues. Braces, corrective surgery, and even pediatric orthopedic surgery are used to treat such conditions as clubfoot, congenital hip dysplasia, growth plate injuries and pediatric fractures. The importance of the early diagnosis and treatment is that children grow well and have healthy bones in the long run. Incorrect orthopedic surgery and rehabilitation programs exist in case of patients with complex orthopedic deformities or mobility.
