Editor's Note

New Age Child-Speciality Centres Nurturing the Tender Generaons

With the changing times, lifestyles,

industrialization and rapid urbanization, several challenges in health are visible. Adults generally are resilient and can identify the symptoms easily to approach the doctors for treatments. However, kids are somehow unable to comprehend or express their concerns. This is where the doctors specializing in child health also known as pediatrics, play an important role.

Most people tend to take their kids to the general physician or the family doctors. However, often times it so happens that the treatment gets prolonged due to improper diagnosis. This has led to the need for child specialists health centres and hospitals that can address the health concerns through their core expertise.

The modern child healthcare hospitals are equipped with modern equipment, accessories and a well-qualified team of experienced doctors, nurses and support staff. Set in a dedicated facility, the childcare hospital houses the best facilities in diagnostics, consultancy, ample wards and rooms with intensive care units. The ambience is warm, friendly, and geared to nurture the kids through its welcoming ambience of cartoon characters, toys and posters.

The well-trained staff is prompt in coordinating with the parents who have come with their respective kids and scheduling their consultation. The childcare hospital is built in a way that systematically addresses the concerns of the children. The doctors check the kids, identify the condition, conduct the tests (as required) and offer the treatment with proper guidance to the parents. This dialogue that the doctors initiate in educating and informing the parents

about the prevailing season and the child’s condition, becomes crucial as it includes understanding the eating patterns, water consumption, sleep and other lifestyle aspects. Apart from the medical prescription, dietary advice with other aspects of rest with vital dos and don’ts become their key strength.

Modern childcare hospitals have not only helped in treating the seasonal concerns, but have successfully identified and treated severe health issues, with their professional expertise. These hospitals have supported several physicians who promptly refer the parents for treating the children effectively and quickly.

Recognizing their importance, CioLook India has come up with its latest issue, The Most Recommended Child Healthcare Hospitals in India’ , that highlights the vital dimensions of these great destinations of rejuvenation.

Added are a couple of informative articles written by our in-house editorial team that will make the reading engaging.

Child Care and Lactation

Counseling Center for A Healthier Next Gen

Dr Surabhi Goverdhan Sangwai is a passionate promoter of breastfeeding and optimal infant and young child feeding practices in the community and is advocating its importance through her practice in pediatrics for almost a decade.

The Most Recommended Child Healthcare Hospitals in India

Motherhood is a transformatory phase of a woman to a mother..Every woman dreams to be a mother to a child and when this Child is born we should note the famous quote, “It takes a village to raise a child! ”

Birth and Beyond Clinic -Child Care and Lactation

Counseling Center’s founder , Dr Surabhi Goverdhan Sangwai, Paediatrician, Lactation Consultant, Infant and Young Child Nutrition Expert, and FTT care Provider , experienced it first-hand when she became a proud mother . Her breastfeeding journey was quite challenging. Despite having such thorough knowledge and having helped many mothers, she couldn't breastfeed her baby exclusively for almost a week after birth.

She then realized the need for an additional and skillful hand-holding during a mother’s immediate postpartum period. She discovered the agony of a mother who gives birth to a new life for the first time who has to support the baby's life only on the milk her body is designed to produce naturally and starts facing challenges right from the early days.

An Essential Link in the Healthcare Loop

The theory and influencers around a mother would never be on one page leading her to further stages of confusion and

anxiety. Being a mother to this baby and playing the several roles a woman is expected to model, Dr Surabhi decided to venture into the field of Lactation Counseling as an addition to her work in Pediatrics and to create an additional link in the Health Care loop. Where the mother would usually meet an obstetrician for her prenatal care, and later she goes to a pediatrician till the child grows 18 years.

Dr. Sangwai is a Consultant Paediatrician, neonatologist and passionate promoter of breastfeeding and optimal infant feeding practices in the community and has been advocating its importance through her practice in pediatrics for almost a decade. She finished her graduation in medicine from PDMMC, Amravati (MS) and did her Post Graduation in Pediatrics from DMIMS, Sawangi (MS). She had worked in several public, rural, and urban health centers and medical colleges before she founded this one of its kind state of art Lactation Counseling Center at Nagpur, which is dedicated to providing thorough guidance on various possible breastfeeding challenges and childcare queries faced by parents and families routinely and in exceptions as well.

A unit of Sangwai Clinics, Birth and Beyond Clinic is a unique setup where breastfeeding mother and baby dyads are helped with their challenges during the first few weeks postpartum. This center was founded by Dr Surabhi Goverdhan Sangwai, a Consultant Pediatrician and an avid Breastfeeding Support Professional, amidst the challenging times of Covid pandemic in the year 2020. She had been working with children and their parents for a decade now. She is an Infant and Young Child Nutrition expert and the first Pediatrician in Nagpur to have received a scholarship for learning the Functional Tongue Ties and their impact on breastfeeding. She is a certified Functional Tongue Tie Care provider.

She informs, “ We have a Comprehensive Dental Care and Implant Clinic under the same head where we take care of the babies with oral restrictions and sleep issues .”

This clinic is headed by Dr Prasanna Sangwai, a Consultant Implantologist and Prosthodontic Dental Surgeon with over 15 years of experience and expertise.

Recently the Dental Clinic was bestowed with an interesting opportunity where Dr Surabhi mentions, “ The famous Indian cricketer Ravindra Jadeja got his dental treatment done at our ‘Sanjeev Dental Clinic,’ a unit of Sangwai Clinics, at Nagpur, Maharashtra, India, before his test match in Nagpur, in the month of February 2023 .”

Birth and Beyond Clinic in Nagpur is a dedicated center where mother-baby dyads are helped with their infant feeding challenges during the first few weeks postpartum and beyond .

Dr.Surabhi and Dr.Prasanna Sangwai collaborate to provide evidence-based care to children with oral restrictions and sleep issues.

An International Board Certified Lactation Consultant

Dr Surabhi is Nagpur’s first lady Pediatrician to have bagged the prestigious credential of International Board Certified Lactation Consultant from the IBLCE, USA, in the year 2020, which was a product of her sincere motivation to promote breastfeeding in the community. Her clinic offers Lactation Counseling with Comprehensive Child Care to the mother-baby dyads from the Antenatal period to early postpartum and continued support till two years and beyond.

The quality of hand-holding, which a mother needs in this crucial phase of her life, is provided at this center. Regular follow-ups with mothers through telephonic support is one of the special services available at Birth and Beyond Lactation Counseling Center India.

Dr Surabhi works on the panel of several organizations (including websites and apps) related to mother and child care all over India and can be reached through her website, www.sangwaiclinics.com and also those platforms digitally. Here are a few of them, including BPNI, Nourish 1000 days, MomKidCare, BabyVerse, Humm Care , Sangopan TenderCare Pvt Ltd and many more.

Sharing the immersive benefits that Birth and Beyond Clinic provides its clients, Dr Surabhi says that a mother should feel glad about her creation and enjoy the phase of motherhood she has stepped into. After visiting this center, most mothers have felt the utmost need for Lactation Counseling during their postpartum period. Many mothers have also reported feeling at ease and more confident about themselves and their caretaking capacities once they get this session after delivery. Also, the technical and practical hand-holding provided here is a unique feature of the healthcare professional involved in their care plan. The easily available service with specialized dentistry is an additional benefit to parents facing issues with poor oral hygiene, pediatric sleep / breathing issues or associated dental problems of children.

We have been helping mothers in Pan India by using Telemedicine as an important platform.

This center strictly prohibits using infant milk substitutes or accessories available in the market and abides by the IMS Act in India.

The comprehensive child care provided here covers the following list of services: -

Ÿ Breastfeeding Speciality Support 0-2 years

Ÿ Optimal Nutrition for growth and Development (018years)

Ÿ Asthma Care Clinic.

Ÿ Routine and Special Immunization/Vaccination with National Guidelines. (0-18 years)

Ÿ Behavior disorders in Children. (0-18 years)

Ÿ Development Assessment of children. (0-5 years)

Ÿ Adolescent Counseling.

Ÿ Infectious Diseases treatment.

Ÿ All other Pediatric queries. (0-18 yrs.)

Helping Mothers via Telemedicine

Being an experienced leader, Dr Surabhi shares her opinion on how adopting modern technologies like AI and ML impacts the Child Healthcare space and how her Clinic/Center is adapting to the change. She says that COVID has taught humanity a lesson to upgrade and enhance the survival strategies where technology has proven an amicable role. Birth and Beyond Child Care and Lactation Counseling center is a prominent service provider for parents seeking help for their breastfeeding and child nutrition assistance in central and pan India. She adds, “ We have been helping mothers in Pan India and using

Health is a state which needs to be invested in holistically and can be gifted to humanity by service.

Telemedicine as an important platform for the same with all the ethical considerations .”

According to Dr Surabhi, child healthcare’s crucial role is increasing daily. She says , “COVID affected the elderly to start with and still is a disease of the aged predominantly. Children were less affected in the first wave, and of them, the breastfed babies were the last to get it. We must realize that immunity has played an important role in modifying the disease response. Although we consider children a vulnerable group of the immune susceptible population, they could still manage to get less affected in the first wave. So it is of utmost importance that we take care of our children today in gross as well as microscopy lest they form an immunocompetent force to fight the future pandemics.”

Several countries in the world have been fighting malnutrition for under five years. Therefore, the child healthcare sector involving healthcare experts, governments, and organizations are continuously developing and promoting the scope of working for this future progeny to be better with all the possible methods to prevent malnutrition and enhance the expression of their highest growth potential.

Proliferating Correct Infant/Baby Feeding Practices

She furthers that considering the current scenario, the biggest challenge is to create awareness regarding the importance of this part of a healthcare facility. People are exposed to many marketing gimmicks that mislead most parents to start their babies by providing infant milk substitutes and packaged foods.

Organizations like BPNI are fighting hard to create an impact for a healthy nation, as the foundation of health lies

in the optimal growth and development of our children, who will form future generations. She assures, “ Our clinic and Center abide by the IMS act in India and conduct regular activities on social and public platforms to promote the correct practices of Infant and Young Child Feeding as guided by WHO and UNICEF .”

As an expert in this field, Dr Surabhi updates her credentials by conducting research, clinical case presentations and attending conferences of her speciality. She is a Life member of the Indian Academy of Paediatrics, Human Milk Bank Association of India, IYCF chapter, BPNI, ILCA and several other prestigious organizations in India and the world.

Ensuring the Fittest Humankind

In her advice to budding entrepreneurs who aspire to venture into the Healthcare space, Dr Surabhi says, “Health,

Our clinic and center abide by the IMS act in India and conduct regular activities on social and public platforms to promote the correct practices of Infant and Young Child Feeding as guided by WHO and UNICEF .

in my view, is a state which needs to be invested in holistically and can then be gifted to humanity by service.” So those who desire to be an entrepreneur in this sector, should feel compassion above making money. “As we know the law of the universe, which depicts since ages, what we give comes back to us.”

So if you contribute to health, the same will also make you wealthy. Never forget that compassion makes the human a being in harmony which shall prevail incessantly, and thereby the one who holds the healing touch is the same who has learnt the art of delegating health care truthfully!

On envisioning scaling Birth and Beyond Clinic’s operations and offerings in future, Dr Surabhi reveals that this setup is progressive to involve a team management protocol where a mother-baby dyad is going to learn to become comfortable with each other and mother can get more confident in her caretaking capacities along with a

holistic approach which believes in healing a human from within, be it a mother, a baby or their family.

A pediatrician, an obstetrician, a lactation counselor, a dentist, a pediatric physiotherapist and a psychiatrist are the possible links as they may need to reach out. All of them can be found in the expert team of Birth and Beyond Child Care and Lactation Counseling Center situated at Bajaj Nagar, Nagpur, Maharashtra, India.

An Overview of Challenges and Opportunities in the Child Heahcare Segment

Child healthcare is a vital aspect of public health, and it is a key indicator of a country's progress toward achieving sustainable development goals. Despite the global advancements in healthcare, millions of children worldwide suffer from preventable and treatable illnesses. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates millions of children under the age of five die each year, with most of the deaths occurring in low and middle income countries. The child healthcare segment, therefore, presents both challenges and opportunities for healthcare providers and policymakers.

In this article, we will explore some of the challenges and opportunities in child healthcare and how they can be addressed to improve child health outcomes.

Challenges in Child Healthcare

Challenges can reduce healthcare professionals’ efficacy and efficiency directly impacting patient outcomes. Some of those challenges include:

Lack of Essential Services

One of the primary challenges in child healthcare is the lack of access to essential healthcare services. This is

particularly true for children living in low income and rural areas where healthcare infrastructure is inadequate, and healthcare providers are scarce. According to UNICEF, nearly half of the world's population lacks access to essential healthcare services, and children are among the most affected. This lack of access to healthcare services often results in delayed diagnosis and treatment of illnesses, leading to poor health outcomes for children.

Malnutrition

Another challenge is the prevalence of malnutrition among children. Malnutrition is a significant contributor to child mortality and morbidity. Malnutrition also increases the risk of infectious diseases and reduces the effectiveness of vaccines, leading to a higher incidence of illnesses and longer recovery times.

Infectious diseases

In addition to malnutrition, infectious diseases are also a significant challenge in child healthcare. Children are more susceptible to infectious diseases due to their developing immune systems, and they are at higher risk of contracting diseases such as measles, pneumonia, and diarrheal diseases. Infectious diseases are often preventable through

17 | April | www.ciolookindia.com

vaccinations and proper hygiene practices, but in many low income countries, access to vaccines and proper sanitation is limited.

Opportunities in Child Healthcare

Despite the challenges, there are also opportunities for improving child healthcare outcomes. These opportunities support the maintenance of healthcare systems allowing patients to get the right treatment.

Healthcare Technology

One of the key opportunities is the increasing availability and accessibility of healthcare technology. Technology such as telemedicine, mobile health apps, and electronic health records can improve access to healthcare services and enable healthcare providers to diagnose and treat illnesses more effectively. Telemedicine, for example, allows healthcare providers to remotely diagnose and treat patients, which is particularly beneficial in areas with limited healthcare infrastructure.

Preventive Healthcare

Another opportunity is the increasing focus on preventive healthcare. Preventive healthcare aims to prevent illnesses before they occur by promoting healthy behaviors, such as regular exercise, healthy eating, and proper hygiene practices. Preventive healthcare also includes vaccinations and regular health screenings, which can detect illnesses early and improve health outcomes. By focusing on preventive healthcare, healthcare providers can reduce the burden of infectious diseases and other preventable illnesses on the healthcare system.

Financial Support and Infrastructure

Finally, there is an opportunity to improve healthcare financing and increase investment in child healthcare. Many low and middle income countries lack adequate healthcare financing, which limits their ability to provide essential healthcare services to children. By increasing healthcare financing and investment, countries can improve access to healthcare services, improve healthcare infrastructure, and provide essential medicines and vaccines to children in need.

All this points in the direction of Child healthcare as a critical aspect of public health, and it presents both challenges and opportunities for healthcare providers and

policymakers. The lack of access to essential healthcare services, malnutrition, and infectious diseases are some of the primary challenges in child healthcare. However, the increasing availability of healthcare technology, the focus on preventive healthcare, and the opportunity to improve healthcare financing and investment provide hope for improving child healthcare outcomes. To achieve sustainable progress in child healthcare, it is crucial to address these challenges and capitalize on these opportunities to improve access to healthcare services for patients.

Moreover, it is crucial to recognize that child healthcare is not just about treating illnesses and injuries but also about promoting healthy growth and development. Therefore, it is essential to focus on preventative measures such as immunizations, regular check-ups, and screenings. It is also necessary to educate parents and caregivers about the importance of healthy habits such as nutrition, exercise, and hygiene.

To summarise, child healthcare is a critical segment of the healthcare industry that requires attention and resources. Although there are several challenges such as access to care, affordability, and quality of care, there are also opportunities for innovation and improvement. By addressing these challenges and leveraging these opportunities, we can ensure that children receive the care they need to grow up healthy and thrive. It is our collective responsibility to prioritize child healthcare and work towards creating a healthier future for generations to come.

Rupak Barua, Director and Group CEO

The Most Recommended Child Healthcare Hospitals in India

We must adopt to change positively. When forced by situations like the COVID-19 pandemic, when compelled to change our priorities, we accepted that health is the real wealth every human being, especially our future generations, can possess. Now, we must move forward and embrace the fact that we must make substantial investments in creating a robust healthcare system, especially regarding child healthcare in the world, that will set an example.

In this regard, AMRI Hospitals is a leading private healthcare service provider in Eastern India. It is one of the fastest-growing healthcare organizations with three superspeciality hospitals at prominent locations, including Dhakuria, Mukundapur, Salt Lake and another multispeciality healthcare unit in Bhubaneswar, Odisha. Rupak Barua , Director and Group CEO , said that the Group has been offering world-class treatment and

exemplary clinical outcomes, backed by latest technologies, acclaimed physicians, and international standard facilities, for the last 25 years.

Embracing the Changing Healthcare Dynamics

As you are all aware, life as we knew it has changed since March 2020 due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. Like everybody else, we faced some difficulties adapting to the altered circumstances but learnt quickly and soon found our feet.

Within a few weeks of the pandemic hitting India, we acclimatised ourselves to the rules of "new normal" by making relevant adjustments to our SOPs, making necessary alterations to our physical infrastructure, and modifying our protocols. I am proud to inform you that AMRI continued with its success in offering the same clinical excellence that has been counted as our hallmark even before the pandemic.

While we became the first private hospital in Eastern India to start treating COVID-19 patients, we dedicated four of our seven towers, set up several satellite centres, and converted India's largest football stadium into a large field hospital, to offer the best of our services.

Looking back at the last 25 years of our existence, we are happy to count the millions of people who have walked out through our doors with a smile. I am happy to add that despite challenges, we are steadfast in our journey of affecting significant changes to the healthcare sector, and we are continuing on a path of stable growth and infusion of new vigour into AMRI Hospitals.

Two Decades of Selfless Service

AMRI Hospitals, founded in 1996, is one of the leading private hospital networks in Eastern India, with the hospital Group offering a wide range of services for both paediatric and adult patients, besides being one of the few hospitals in the region to have state-of-the-art ICUs for Paediatric as well as Neonates. AMRI Hospital boasts of a multidisciplinary team of highly qualified and experienced paediatricians, neonatologists, surgeons, therapists, and nurses across different specialities. While the group has always strived to ensure the best possible care and treatment for children across all age groups, in keeping with international standards, the paediatric wards at AMRI are separate from the adult areas

21 | April | www.ciolookindia.com

With world-class doctors on board, AMRI has pioneered several paediatric surgeries and procedures in Eastern India, including the first paediatric TVUR and the first minimallyinvasive cardiac surgery, which give us an edge over others. AMRI also boasts of a panel of cardiologists, nephrologists, critical care and internal medicine experts and doctors from other specialities specialising in treating paediatric cases.

Lauded for its service and clinical excellence, AMRI does not just offer specialized Emergency Retrieval Services. Our paediatric wards provide a variety of advanced treatment platforms like non-invasive, conventional, and high-frequency ventilation, Continuous End Tidal CO2 monitoring, state-of-the-art Blood Gas Machine with Lactate Value, 24x7 renal replacement therapy, ultrasound and echocardiography, ultrasound-guided vascular access and pleural drain placement, ambulance equipped with blood pressure monitoring facility, paediatric units for dialysis, bronchoscope and endoscopy, advanced neonatal therapies like HFOV, whole body cooling for HIE, dedicated neonatal emergency transport services, latest open care systems and incubators, comprehensive care of extremely pre-term (less than 28 weeks and less than 1000 gm) and critically ill babies, isolation unit for potentially septic neonates, Laminar Flow to prepare TPN, and Cerebral Function Monitors.

The Leadership of Excellence

Mr Barua, a healthcare professional for more than three decades, has carved a niche as one of the most prominent healthcare administrators in Eastern India and nationally. Since he took up the reins of AMRI Hospitals in 2014 as Group CEO, he has set AMRI on a path of fast-track growth, looking beyond revenue generation by focusing on 'service with a smile' and superior clinical excellence. While he encouraged the workforce to strive for improved quality through better patient care, he also identified technological advances that would help provide both care and precision for the treatment of patients. Under his guidance, AMRI introduced the latest innovations in healthcare technology and clinical and management protocols to make the Group stand out as a leading healthcare service provider.

Sharing his inspiration behind venturing into this sector, Mr Barua says he believes himself to be a dedicated, targetoriented individual, committed to growth, and these values keep inspiring him. The turning point in his life was when he stepped into the healthcare sector, where he took up challenges one after another, and met these challenges successfully. Mr Barua earned a name for his problemsolving skills and for bringing about a new era in the healthcare sector of Kolkata. His father has also been a major inspiration all through for his determination and active involvement in helping others, who, till his last breath, were associated with many welfare activities. His father's philosophy in life was to serve people and leave behind a legacy of service. This philosophy inspired Mr Barua and made him ever ready for new challenges and frontiers.

The Inspirational Philosophy of Serving People

Being an experienced leader, sharing his opinion on how the adoption of modern technologies like AI and ML is impacting the Child Healthcare space and how AMRI is adapting to the change, Mr Barua says that technological innovations have been adding value to healthcare from the early days of modern medicine. Robotics, Virtual ICU, telemedicine and remote care platforms, AI and Machine Learning, Cloud technology, Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality are some of the advances that are redefining healthcare delivery and in-patient care.

"While core technological developments like Internet and mobile telephony are changing every aspect of our lives, each of these innovations will help us to provide better care

22 | April | www.ciolookindia.com
AMRI Hospitals has been one of the most lauded private healthcare services providers, with several awards and accolades to its credit, including internaonal recognion.

and more precise clinical outcome to our patients, both paediatric and adult," he says.

AMRI Hospitals acquired a fair idea about telemedicine and remote care facilities through first-hand experience during the pandemic. While they have already started using some of these innovations, they will keep on exploring such ideas. " I believe that the faster we adapt to these innovations, the more beneficial it will be for us to gain an edge ," Mr Barua adds.

According to him, challenges make life interesting, and life without any would make us take things for granted, leaving us stuck in a rut. However, it is important to differentiate between challenges and roadblocks, and there are some we face daily. " The primary challenge for any private healthcare service provider is to live ahead of the curve by exploring new ideas and adapting to technological changes, which in today's world happen almost overnight. Another challenge is sustained digital access, for which we urge the Government further to improve infrastructure for the unhindered movement of data feeds. We would also like to request the Government to reconsider some policies on tax breaks and import duties of high-end medical equipment so that we can pass on the benefits to our patients ," he points out.

Fostering Evidence Based Quality Healthcare

In his advice to budding entrepreneurs who aspire to venture into the healthcare space, Mr Barua says that challenges will keep coming, but a true leader will always find the strength and the capacity to remain motivated and face anything. The idea is to keep taking up challenging tasks one after the other and meet these challenges successfully because, at the end of the day, only this attribute will help you earn a name, not just as a leader but also as an example explorer of new paths. One must also keep in mind that the success of any company depends as much on the leader as it does on the leader's vision to choose the right direction, besides identifying the right kind of talent. It is also important to form the right kind of team, which will help drive the organisation's achievements forward.

On scaling up AMRI's operations and offerings in the future, Mr Barua reveals that since its inception, AMRI has set its vision on providing clinical evidence-based, valuefor-money, quality healthcare service, with a particular focus on offering the latest technological support.

Across all its four hospitals, they have substantially invested in advanced biomedical equipment over the years. As part of their ongoing business plan, they are replacing ageing equipment with the latest ones in a structured manner so that they can have a faster turnaround time in their diagnostic investigations and imaging areas, as well as in surgical interventions.

Investing in Health for the Best Future

These investments will essentially be in areas such as radiology, imaging, radiotherapy, surgical microscopes, nuclear medicine, and critical care, among others. They want to explore the possibilities of upgrading their equipment, like MRI, using AI tools to maximize utility for more efficiency. " We are also actively adapting to surgical robots, particularly for orthopaedics and neurology ," concludes Mr Barua

AMRI Hospitals has been one of the most lauded private healthcare services providers, with several awards and accolades to its credit, including international recognition.

The Group has ranked among the Top 2 in The WeekHansa Annual Hospital Ranking Survey from 2017 to 2022 , besides being among a handful of Indian hospitals to find a place in the Newsweek-Statista Global Hospital Ranking Survey since 2020

The Group has also won several top awards, including ' Excellence in Critical Care ' at Zee 24 Ghanta Healthcare Conclave in 2021 and 2022, the Economic Times ' Best Brand ' award in 2021 and 2022, and the COVID Warriors Award 2021 , organized jointly by the British Deputy High Commission, Millennium Post, and SKAI International.

responsibilities and clinical duties all by myself. I am a trained and certified Cerec Specialist (CAD-CAM), providing single-visit dentistry. I also teach juniors about the tips and tricks and proper protocols to provide quality dental care. Apart from dentistry, I enjoy sports, and dance is my hobby.

Please share your opinion on the impact of the latest technologies, like AI /MI, in driving changes in the modern medical field.

Modern technologies are always good for learning and adapting to change as fast as you can. Just like Darwin’s Theory, “survival of the fittest” is what remains in the market. So, learn and adapt to upgrade and provide excellent patient treatment. AI is one of the best things to use in today’s practice. You can reduce the number the sittings. And offer an instant cure for everything with single-visit dentistry.

The latest software applications help medical professionals maintain the patient record, set reminders, plan appointments, schedule treatments and surgeries, scrutinize the efficacy of the medicines from the patient improvement, and support the basic tasks of coordination that consume

much time in talking and basic communication. With online systems, patients can easily book appointments, get reminders for the next sitting, and get updates on their improvements. Modern technologies have made things easier, faster, and more feasible.

What challenges did you face, and how did you overcome them?

Considering the current pandemic, during the early days had to keep the clinic closed to ensure everyone’s safety. But soon after the government allowed healthcare professionals, we returned to our battlefield. I kept all the (Standard Operating Procedures) SOPs like proper sterilization, sanitization, temperature check daily, PPE and regular RT-PCR tests for all staff and doctors. Fumigation and air purifier were installed in the clinic, and all other necessary steps were fulfilled.

DentRelief Dental Clinic offers a wide variety of treatments which includes dental care from paediatric (child) patient to geriatric (old age) patients.

What is your advice to budding entrepreneurs and young medical professionals?

I advise young dentists to keep patience with children and not rush into the treatment. First, try to get friendly with them and enter their comfort zone. Then they will allow you to work. Then comes your role in providing quality care and treatment with your skilful hands. Always learn by observing and understanding the patient’s concerns. While working, keep talking to them positively about improving their condition and what best suits them.

Please elaborate on your plans for scaling your offerings in the future.

We plan to expand our clinic with multiple branches in 2023. We are constantly upgrading ourselves to keep all our patients happy, providing them with a pain-free, beautiful smile. Our team of young dentists is dedicated and eager to offer good-quality dental treatments and consultations to all people. With a steady and consistent approach, our network will grow higher and wider.

What will be your advice to every parent?

Parents play a vital role in taking children’s care, whether it’s dental care or general well-being. First and foremost, do what you want your child to do, be an idol for them. Secondly, a few things which can be done to keep a child’s dental care proper is always visiting a dentist every six months. Take appropriate care of milk teeth from the beginning. And brush with your child so that they also brush. Wipe the gum pads of neonates after feeding.

The most important tip for everyone – “ Always rinse after having anything .”

How

Child Specialty are the Efficacy of the Healthcare Industry? Healthcare Industry?

The healthcare industry has been evolving rapidly

over the past few years, with new technologies and innovations being introduced to improve patient outcomes. One area that has seen significant progress in child specialty hospitals. These hospitals are dedicated to providing specialized care to children with complex medical conditions, and they are redefining the efficacy of the healthcare industry.

Child specialty hospitals are unique in that they focus solely on the needs of children. They have specialized teams of doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals who are trained to provide care to children with complex medical conditions. These hospitals are equipped with state-of-theart technology and equipment, and they offer a wide range of services, including surgery, rehabilitation, and mental health services.

This article will help in creating an altered perspective around Child Speciality Hospitals!

Redefining

Benefits of Child Speciality Hospitals

Child Speciality Hospitals ensure the right pediatric care for the children allowing their health and wellness is not compromised. Some of the key benefits of Child Speciality hospitals are discussed below:

Personalized Care

One of the key benefits of child specialty hospitals is that they provide a high level of personalized care. Children with complex medical conditions require specialized care that is tailored to their specific needs. Child specialty hospitals are designed to provide this type of care, with teams of healthcare professionals who work together to develop personalized treatment plans for each child.

Larger Healthcare Systems

Another benefit of child specialty hospitals is that they are often part of larger healthcare systems. This allows them to collaborate with other hospitals and healthcare providers to provide comprehensive care to children with complex

31 | April | www.ciolookindia.com

medical conditions. Collaboration between hospitals is essential to improving patient outcomes, as it allows healthcare providers to share best practices and learn from one another.

Role in Addressing Health Disparities

Child specialty hospitals are also playing a critical role in addressing health disparities. Many children with complex medical conditions come from underserved communities, and child specialty hospitals are working to expand access to care and achieve better health outcomes for these children. They are using community health workers (CHWs) to reach out to underserved communities and provide education and support to families.

Redefining Healthcare Delivery

In addition to providing specialized care, child specialty hospitals are also redefining the way healthcare is delivered. They are shifting services from inpatient to outpatient settings and moving them into the community. This is important because it allows children to receive care in a more comfortable and familiar environment, which can improve their overall experience and outcomes.

Leveraging Technology for Improved Outcomes

Child specialty hospitals are also leveraging technology to improve patient outcomes. They are using telemedicine to provide remote consultations and follow-up care, which can be especially beneficial for families who live in rural or remote areas. They are also using electronic health records (EHRs) to improve care coordination and ensure that patients receive the right care at the right time.

Challenges

Child specialty hospitals are not without their challenges. One issue that has been raised is that these hospitals tend to treat more profitable Medicare patients and fewer Medicaid and uninsured patients than community hospitals in the same markets. This raises larger issues about health care financing and access to care for underserved populations. Another challenge is creating a welcoming and healing environment for children and families. Modern children's hospitals are seeking to create spaces that include young patients of all ages and abilities, as well as their parents and siblings. Evidence-based design has proven that the clinical environment if thoughtfully considered, can actively assist in prevention, compassionate care, and healing.

Collaboration between hospitals is also essential to improving patient outcomes. The value of buy-in from doctors and medical centers cannot be overstated. Hospitals can learn from each other and identify previously invisible performance gaps, develop new solutions, and change practices.

Finally, childcare services are becoming an increasingly important perk for healthcare providers. Hospitals are partnering with childcare service providers to offer on-site childcare centers or back-up care for staff. This not only helps healthcare providers balance work and family responsibilities but also helps retain staff and improve job satisfaction

In conclusion, child specialty hospitals are redefining the efficacy of the healthcare industry by providing specialized care to children with complex medical conditions, collaborating with other healthcare providers to improve patient outcomes, leveraging technology to improve care delivery, and recognizing the importance of providing emotional support to children and families. However, there are challenges that need to be addressed, such as healthcare financing and access to care for underserved populations, creating a welcoming and healing environment, and providing childcare services for healthcare providers. As the healthcare industry continues to evolve, child specialty hospitals will play an increasingly important role in improving patient outcomes and redefining the way healthcare is delivered.

Finally, child specialty hospitals are recognizing the importance of providing emotional support to children and families. They are offering a wide range of services, including counselling, art therapy, and music therapy, to help children cope with the stress and anxiety of being in the hospital. They are also providing support to families, including education and resources to help them navigate the healthcare system.

Dr KK’s Kidsurg Clinic

Specialist in Advanced and Trusted Paediatric Surgeries

Our clinic is a one-stop soluon for consulng for any surgical requirements in the kids.

34 | April | www.ciolookindia.com

The Most Recommended Child Healthcare Hospitals in India

With the changing dynamics of modern urban society, children's health concerns have risen. On several occasions, parents face challenges in understanding the symptoms and contacting the best child specialists or paediatricians. Doctors who can identify the different health conditions in children and suggest perfect treatment.

Providing excellent child treatment and paediatric surgeries, Dr KK’s Kidsurg Clinic has emerged as the most reliable and effective childcare clinic in Pune. Dr Kshama Kulkarni , Specialist Paediatric Surgeon, has been offering effective treatments. She has conducted several types of surgeries, helping thousands of children. She is also a pediatric urologist and pediatric laparoscopic Surgeon in Pune with an experience of over 18 years in these fields.

Speaking to the CioLook India team in an engaging interview, Dr Kshama elaborated on her professional journey, inspirations, challenges, and vision.

Dr Kshama, please brief our audience about Dr KK’s Kidsurg Clinic and its USPs.

My clinic – Dr KK’s Kidsurg Clinic, is located in the wellknown locality of Kothrud, in the heart of Pune city, well connected to the patients by public and private transport from all the areas around Pune and outside Pune too. Patients from all strata visit the clinic for their varied surgical conditions. I am trained to handle all surgical procedures in children.

Our clinic is a one-stop solution for consulting for any surgical requirements in the kids. Many patients visit us for ‘second opinions’ considering the vast experience of the doctor in the field of pediatric surgery and pediatric urology. Patients have developed trust with us due to our extensive experience and knowledge. They bring us new patients, through their recommendations.

Please tell us about your hospital offerings and what makes them stand out.

A child is not a miniature adult, and hence the surgical problems in children require the expertise of a surgeon specially trained in handling children and have enough experience with various anomalies and conditions in children. Most parents with a child with a surgical problem do not know that specially trained surgeons dedicate their practice to children’s surgery.

We clear all doubts about the child’s problem, the need for surgery, the safety of surgery, and anaesthesia in small children, for which the parents are always worried. They are often misguided by others who do not deal in this field. Our expertise and the importance of customizing the treatment to individual child's needs should not be overemphasized.

We offer a wide range of pediatric surgical treatments. They include paediatric urology, neonatal surgeries, pediatric gastrointestinal and thoracic surgeries, pediatric cancer surgeries, pediatric plastic surgery, burns, and minimally invasive surgeries (keyhole surgeries and endoscopic surgeries) in children from the newborn stage to adolescent ages. All varieties of Hypospadias and DSDs requiring surgeries, as seen in this clinic. We treat the common problems like constipation, cuts, injuries, hernia hydroceles, etc., to the more complex reconstructive urology and cancers in kids! The ethics of medical care which we follow makes us stand out.

Please tell us about your journey in the child healthcare sector and how the clinic excels in the pediatric segment.

I am glad to inform you that I am a Gold Medalist in Pediatric Surgery (M. Ch) from the prestigious institute of the country - CMC Vellore, Tamilnadu. Before my super specialization in pediatric surgery, I completed my Master's in General Surgery (MS) from GMC, Nagpur. I also hold the degree of Diplomate of National Board, New Delhi (DNB )in general surgery. I completed the prestigious MRCS (gen. surgery) degree from the Royal College of Surgeons, England.

However, I chose to continue my practice in India to help patients from our own country who need my expertise the most. My quest to keep learning advanced treatments for the benefit of the patients led me to visit Necker’s children’s hospital Paris in 2014. And for robotic pediatric urology, I visited Children’s National hospital, Washington DC, USA, in 2019. With such rich experience, knowledge, and the quest to keep updating newer technologies in the operations of kids, we excel in managing our patients.

What was your inspiration behind venturing into this sector?

Child care and child surgery are one of the most dynamic. At the same time most delicate branch to work. One needs to be very passionate about treating children. A child is not just a miniature adult. Hence they require specialized care and dedication from the caregivers. Unless one has taken

35 | April | www.ciolookindia.com

enough experience in surgeries on babies, one can’t give good results to the patients. It is very satisfying to treat the kids, provide them with their childhood, and smile back.

Please share your opinion on the impact of the latest technologies, like AI /MI, in driving changes in the modern medical field.

Modern technologies like AI and MI are always good to learn about and adapt to simplify our day-to-day work. Telemedicine has proved itself as a boon during COVID times. We, too, have adapted to this. We do online consultations for patients when it’s impossible for them to visit the doctor. And for patients outside India who don’t get appointments in their countries of residence.

The 3D printing tech has helped us create some organ models that support our surgical outcomes, especially in cancer surgeries. The AI has enabled us to preserve patient data, send patients notifications about their appointments, schedule follow-up visits, and give feedback. So we can improve on where we are lacking. I have also taken training in robotic surgery. I offer the benefit of these advanced treatments whenever I feel the patient would benefit.

What challenges did you face, and how did you overcome them?

There is still much lack of awareness about paediatric surgery in India. People are still unaware that a child who needs surgery needs to be seen by a trained and experienced paediatric surgeon with expertise in operating on children.

Often the child is directed to a general surgeon (adult surgeon) or adult urologist for their treatment. Parents must be made aware that if they want a good outcome and updated treatments for their kids, they must only be operated upon by surgeons specializing in pediatric surgery.

Children deserve care from paediatric surgeons for their surgical requirements. On several occasions, they are referred to us after some complication happens. That’s not good for the children. Moreover, late or wrong referral causes more harm to the patient. Patients are often told that their child is too small, delaying the surgery. We, as paediatric surgeons, know which problem needs to be operated on at what ideal age. And with the advent of anaesthesia, we operate even on very small babies when required.

That awareness is still lacking even in many medicos, apart from parents. To counsel them on the need for surgery at that age is a real challenge we face. Also, instruments which we use for children are very delicate. Paediatric cystoscopes and endoscopes are still not manufactured in India and are costly. Further, their wear and tear due to the fineness of instruments. The calculated doses of medicines require expertise. Everything needs a dedicated unit. These are the biggest challenge for us.

Dr Kshama, what is your advice to budding entrepreneurs and medical professionals?

In the healthcare industry, ethical practice is very important for long-term sustainability. Hundreds of happy patients won’t put a review for you. But one unsatisfied patient would definitely put a negative review. Please don’t get disheartened by it. Try to give your best and consider each patient as your child. Advise parents what you would have done for your child in such a scenario. Most of the time that will be the right decision.

Competition is rising, but don’t leave ethics behind. If a child doesn’t need surgery or any medicine for that problem, guide them accordingly. They will be more than happy. But when surgery is a must, document it and inform the parents about the advantages, leaving the decision to them.

Give enough time to extract history and clinical diagnosis. Though, this art is slowly vanishing. It will often help you when some investigations are unreliable, especially in children. Counsel the relatives adequately about the daily progress after the operation and document everything in notes.

Please elaborate on your plans for scaling your hospital offerings.

We are aiming to reduce the patient waiting time. By giving online consults for far-off patients and sending reminders of appointments, we are helping them with insurance-related queries. We are also creating awareness about the speciality through camps and reviews from our treated patients. We are taking our treatment and care to the next level.
