Minimal Invasive Surgeries Reduce Impact of Blood Loss

International Modern Hospital offers keyhole surgeries with a host of benefits for patients

Dubai, UAE, 24 June 2014: With the impact of blood loss during surgeries becoming a major concern, the concept of keyhole surgeries is largely gaining prominence. Through recent advancements in medical techniques, minimally invasive methods have become the standard for many procedures, making transfusions even less necessary.

International Modern Hospital (IMH), a private general hospital offering a variety of services with multiple specialties in Dubai,conducts several types of minimal invasive techniques and alternatives for a number of surgical procedures. While there are many benefits to this procedure, one of the main reasons is reduced impact on blood loss, which sometimes leads to patient deaths.

Speaking about the techniques, Dr. Rohit Kumar, Specialist General Surgeon, IMH,said, “Minimal invasive surgery enables us to make sure that blood is not wasted during surgical procedures. With smaller incisions being made during this procedure, a patient stay is shorter and recovery time is faster, there is also reduced scarring and lesser infections during surgery.”

“Marking the recent World Blood Donor’s Day on 14th June, IMH has taken a pledge to spread awareness about the importance of conserving and contributing blood, whereby it is available during emergencies, added Dr. Rohit. “As part of our commitment, we are planning to organize events to encourage blood donation by coordinating with volunteers, patients and the community at large, to support this noble cause.”
