Nagpur: Even though Covid Wards is empty, the doctor is still busy and a full hospital.
This is because patients who ignore their medical needs during the period of the pandemic are now reviewing the hospital.
Many people who continue to postpone their health needs suffer from strokes, said the doctor.
“Our 60% hospital is occupied over the past two months.
The fact is that Covid revenues approach zero since June the first week.
We get patients from those who delay their health needs during a pandemic.
It’s dangerous,” said Dr.
Nitin Shinde from the hospital Alexis.
“I have treated a patient of a unusually high heart attack for the past 2 weeks.
Semuda people in the mid-thirties suffered a heart attack.
What I noticed was that they reported very late.
Maybe, they still felt unsafe to visit the hospital though We do not have covid patients since last month or more, “said Dr.
Prashant Jagtap from Viveka Hospital.
He advised people not to avoid visiting doctors if they have acidity symptoms for a long time despite taking drugs.
Stroke is also one of the serious implications to stay at home and avoid health needs.
“Because of lifestyle and demographic changes, the risk of lifelong stroke for people for 25 years during the pandemic phase increased from 1 of 6 to 1 in 4.
That means one of the four people over the age of 25 will have a stroke in their lives , “said Dr.
Amit Bhatti, neurology intervention, and a stroke specialist.
According to him, the most common cause of death in patients stroke lack of awareness about stroke symptoms, care, and after that comes limited facilities in the hospital.
“Many patients do not know that there are treatments available for strokes.
For ischemic strokes, it is important to get treatment in 4.5 to 6 hours of gold windows.
But most of this time wasted by family and friends who both understand the symptoms of stroke Or take the victim to the right hospital, “he said.
The best and safest options if strokes are to bring patients to hospitals ready for emergency strokes where CT, MRI, and other facilities are available with neurologists all the time.
The majority of strokes can be prevented by overcoming risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, diet, smoking, and exercise.
Thanks to recent progress in neurology intervention, lumps can be removed successfully.
It not only saves the life of the patient but also avoids the disability that might be followed by strokes.
