Leave a comment

चंडीगढ़, 17 जनवरी, 2025: ब्रेन स्ट्रोक एक ऐसी प्रमुख समस्या है जो लंबे समय तक दिव्यांगता और मृत्यु का कारण बन सकती है। यह जानलेवा स्थिति मस्तिष्क की कोशिकाओं को अपरिवर्तनीय क्षति पहुंचाती है। हालांकि, उन्नत स्वास्थ्य तकनीकों जैसे मैकेनिकल थ्रोम्बेक्टॉमी अब चुनिंदा अस्पतालों में 24×7 उपलब्ध है, जिनमें फोर्टिस मोहाली प्रमुख है। कुछ मामलों में, मैकेनिकल थ्रोम्बेक्टॉमी ने स्ट्रोक के 24 घंटे बाद भी गंभीर मरीजों की जान बचाने में मदद की है।

मैकेनिकल थ्रोम्बेक्टॉमी एक मिनिमल इनवेसिव प्रोसेस है, जिसमें मस्तिष्क की धमनी में एक कैथेटर डालकर खून के थक्के को हटाया जाता है। यह रक्त प्रवाह को पुनर्स्थापित करता है और ब्रेन स्ट्रोक मरीजों के इलाज की समय सीमा को 24 घंटे तक बढ़ाकर दिव्यांगता या मृत्यु से बचाता है।

ऐसे ही एक मामले में, फोर्टिस हॉस्पिटल मोहाली के इंटरवेंशनल न्यूरोरैडियोलॉजी डिपार्टमेंट के एडिशनल डायरेक्टर, डॉ. प्रो. विवेक गुप्ता के नेतृत्व में डॉक्टरों की टीम ने हाल ही में चंडीगढ़ की 80 वर्षीय महिला का इलाज किया। महिला को स्ट्रोक होने के 8 घंटे बाद फोर्टिस मोहाली लाया गया था। मरीज बोलने में असमर्थ थी, उसके बाएं हिस्से में लकवा था और वह आपातकालीन स्थिति में वेंटिलेटर पर थी।

डॉ. गुप्ता ने मरीज के मस्तिष्क और गर्दन की धमनियों से दो थक्के हटाने के लिए मैकेनिकल थ्रोम्बेक्टॉमी और एंजियोप्लास्टी की। कभी–कभी गर्दन की धमनियां बंद होती हैं, कभी मस्तिष्क की, और कुछ मामलों में दोनों को खोला जाना आवश्यक होता है। मरीज की पोस्ट–ऑपरेटिव रिकवरी सहज रही और उसे प्रक्रिया के सात दिन बाद अस्पताल से छुट्टी दे दी गई। अब वह पूरी तरह से स्वस्थ हैं और सामान्य जीवन जी रही हैं।

इस उन्नत उपचार के बारे में चर्चा करते हुए, डॉ. गुप्ता ने कहा कि मैकेनिकल थ्रोम्बेक्टॉमी को स्ट्रोक शुरू होने के 24 घंटे के भीतर चुनिंदा मरीजों पर किया जा सकता है। यह एक मिनिमल इनवेसिव प्रोसेस है, जिसमें इंटरवेंशनल न्यूरोरैडियोलॉजिस्ट विशेष उपकरणों का उपयोग करके मस्तिष्क या गर्दन की धमनी से थक्का हटाते हैं।

डॉ. गुप्ता ने कहा कि फोर्टिस हॉस्पिटल मोहाली उत्तर क्षेत्र के कुछ सेंटर्स में से एक है, जहां 24×7 उन्नत न्यूरो–इंटरवेंशनल इलाज और संपूर्ण स्ट्रोक देखभाल, जिसमें सीटी परफ्यूजन और मैकेनिकल थ्रोम्बेक्टॉमी शामिल हैं, मरीजों को चौबीसों घंटे उपलब्ध हैं। विशेषज्ञ डॉक्टरों की टीम, जिसमें न्यूरोलॉजिस्ट, इंटरवेंशनल न्यूरो–रेडियोलॉजिस्ट, न्यूरोसर्जन और एनेस्थेटिस्ट शामिल हैं, 24×7 स्ट्रोक उपचार प्रदान करती है। स्ट्रोक के निदान, इलाज और पुनर्वास से जुड़ी सभी सेवाएं एक ही छत के नीचे उपलब्ध हैं।
