Best hospital for gallstone treatment in Noida

Gallstones are hardened, crystalized deposits of bile that form in your gallbladder or bile ducts. Common in females, gallstones don’t always cause problems, unless they get stuck in your biliary tract and block your bile flow.

If your gallstones cause you symptoms or if they start to travel and clog up your biliary tract, you might need surgery to remove them.

The problem with gallstones is that they grow slowly, but surely. At Felix Hospital, the best hospital for gallstone treatment in Noida, we provide advanced laser treatment for gallstones, offering a minimally invasive alternative to traditional surgery. The procedure ensures reduced pain, and faster recovery. Our expert team of experienced surgeons ensure safe and effective gallstones treatment for optimal outcomes.

Diagnostics

Before implanting a pacemaker, several diagnostic tests are performed to assess heart function and confirm the need for the device. These include:

  • Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG) to detect abnormal heart rhythms and conduction issues.
  • Holter Monitor to record heart activity over time.
  • Echocardiogram to evaluate heart structure and function.
  • Stress Test to assess heart rhythm under physical exertion.
  • Blood Tests to check electrolyte levels, kidney function, and clotting ability before surgery.
  • Chest X-ray to ensure safe pacemaker placement.
  • Treatment

    During the heart pacemaker surgery, you would be given sedative medication via an intravenous drip. This will allow you to sleep through the procedure. The surgeon will insert a sheath into a blood vessel, usually under the collarbone. The sheath is basically a plastic tube through which the pacer lead wire will be inserted into the blood vessel and advanced into the heart.

    Once the lead wire is inside the heart, the surgeon will ensure that the placement is correct and that it works. Fluoroscopy, a special type of x-ray, will help the surgeon determine the placing of the pacemaker. The pacemaker generator will be slipped under your skin on the side of your body. Your electrocardiogram (ECG) will be observed to ensure that the pacer is working correctly.

    Pre Surgery Care

    Our cardiologists may take care of some key considerations in preparing a patient for the pacemaker implant. They will explain the procedure and will ensure to take the patient’s personal and family medical history into consideration. They will assess the patient's overall health, besides cardiac health, and potential risks.

    During the pre-op assessment, the patient may have to undergo general check-up, lab, diagnostic and imaging tests, to ensure if the patient is fit for the procedure.

    Based on the patient's general health, the surgeon may start or stop certain medications before the procedure. Besides, they will be advised to limit their alcohol intake and quit smoking before the procedure, since it can interfere with healing.

    Post-Surgery Care & Recovery

    After the completion of the implant, you will be moved to the recovery suite where your vital signs will be closely monitored. The insertion site may be painful, but the pain won’t last. Pain medication may be administered if needed. Once your heart rate and blood pressure are regulated and are found within normal range you may be discharged from the hospital.

    You should arrange to have someone drive you home from the hospital following your procedure. You’ll also receive information about your pacemaker, when it was placed, its settings, etc.

    Cardiac Rehabilitation

    At Felix Hospital, we provide personalized cardiac rehabilitation to help patients recover from the procedure and get back to everyday life as quickly as possible. For two to three weeks after surgery, patients are advised to avoid heavy lifting, or causing pressure where pacemaker was implanted, and not to lift the arm on the side of the pacemaker above the shoulder for several weeks. Once your doctor gives consent, you are encouraged to do some light exercises to lead a healthy lifestyle. This helps protect the heart and reduce the risk of further heart-related problems.

    Checking Your Device

    Your pacemaker should be checked periodically to assess the battery and find out how the wires are working. Be sure to keep your pacemaker checkup appointments. It’s usually every six months or one year. Pacemaker batteries usually last 10 to 15 years.
