Smart Hospital | Department of obstetrics

Overview

Obstetrics and gynaecology are medical specialties that focus on a woman's reproductive system.

Obstetrics is concerned with the treatment of pregnant women, their unborn children, labour, delivery, and the postpartum period. An obstetrician ensures that both mother and child receive the finest possible care, and that labour and delivery go off without a hitch. Many difficulties might emerge during pregnancy, necessitating numerous medical interventions. These are some of them:

Extra Uterine Pregnancy (ECTOPIC pregnancy) is a situation in which the embryo is implanted in the fallopian tube outside of the uterus.
Pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes mellitus, and gestational hypertension are all examples of high-risk pregnancies.
Compression causes fetal discomfort.
Medical disorders, high blood pressure, and infections are all checked for throughout pregnancy.
Complications associated with early pregnancy
During pregnancy, the foetus is screened for chromosomal abnormalities and infections.
The treatment of postpartum hemorrhage
Medical and psychological issues are common postpartum complications.

The obstetrician has been trained to deal with these and other issues that may emerge during labour. They ensure that both the woman and the baby are securely transported through all stages of pregnancy and childbirth. An obstetrics hospital and physician are prepared to handle any variation that may develop throughout the natural, but sometimes complex process of childbirth, whether it is a regular delivery or a scheduled or emergency caesarean section.

OPrenatal (pre-delivery) and postnatal (post-delivery) classes, infant care, and breastfeeding classes are all part of our unique maternity 'Bundle of Joy' programme for expecting mothers. Our cutting-edge equipment includes a Wireless CTG that accurately distinguishes between maternal and foetal heart rates while allowing women to walk freely throughout induction and labour.

Gynaecology

Gynaecology deals with any condition related to the reproductive organs such as the uterus, fallopian tubes, cervix, vagina, and ovaries. It is a medical field associated with the science of reproduction system and involves different phases of a woman’s life like adolescence, reproduction, menopause and even beyond that. A gynaecology hospital also treats problems related to the bowel, bladder and the urinary system.

Even though the majority of gynaecologists are also obstetricians, the field of gynaecology emphasises on all other aspects of a female’s reproductive health from the beginning of puberty through menopause and even beyond that.

Gynaecology

Gynaecology is concerned with the uterus, fallopian tubes, cervix, vagina, and ovaries, among other reproductive organs. It's a medical specialty that deals with the science of reproduction and spans all stages of a woman's life, including adolescence, reproduction, menopause, and beyond. A gynaecology hospital can also help with issues with the colon, bladder, and urine system.

Ovarian Hypofunction

Ovarian hypofunction is a condition in which the ovaries' function is impaired, resulting in a reduction in hormone production. Women with ovarian hypofunction may have menopausal symptoms, making it harder for them to conceive.

PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome)

Polycystic Ovaries, also known as Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), are a hormonal condition that affects women. This illness causes high levels of androgen, a male hormone, to be produced in women, resulting in a variety of health issues connected to menstruation and pregnancy.

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) is a condition in which the uterus, fallopian tubes, and/or ovaries become inflamed, resulting in scarring and adhesions to adjacent tissues and organs. Women may experience infertility as a result of this illness. PID (Pelvic Inflammatory Disease) is classified by the organs that are affected, the stage of infection, and the organism(s) that cause it.

Placenta Praevia

Placenta Praevia is a disorder in which the placenta grows in the lower region of the uterus (uterus) and blocks the cervix's entrance. This is a pretty typical condition that arises during pregnancy. The placenta is usually found in the lower region of the womb, but as the pregnancy progresses, it climbs to the top. Placenta praevia is a condition in which the placenta does not shift its position. The most serious danger in placenta praevia is unexpected bleeding, which can be fatal to both the mother and the infant. Marginal, partial, and complete placenta praevia are the three forms of placenta praevia.

Preeclampsia

Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-related medical disorder in which a woman develops high blood pressure and protein in her urine. After the 20th week of pregnancy, this problem usually develops. High blood pressure during pregnancy can harm the endothelium, kidneys, and liver of the mother. Red blood cell disintegration, a low blood platelet count, decreased liver function, kidney failure, edoema, shortness of breath owing to fluid in the lungs, and visual problems are all symptoms of severe illness. Preeclampsia raises the chances of both the mother and the baby having a poor result. If left untreated, it might lead to seizures, which is referred to as eclampsia.
