It is my pleasure to share the good news that our chairman has approved the introduction of two new super-specialties of Radiotherapy and Nuclear medicine. We will be launching a new RN block project soon. Our postgraduation seats have also increased from 64 to 77. Our faculty members and superspecialists have done some of the very difficult and unusual cases for the first time in GCS hospital's journey towards excellence in clinical care. Such as, Awake craniotomy, successful treatment of encephalitis case, Balloon mitral valvuloplasty. Our journey to improve services to PMJAY scheme patients and strategy of provision of free service to the community through this route is working out. GCS Medical College UG wing underwent surprise inspection successfully. As a welfare measure, we were able to increase salaries of nursing manpower, Assistant Professor, and senior residents of all specialties thereby improving their retention. I wish all my doctors, nurses, paramedical staff, and support staff a very Happy and Healthy New year.
Welcome to the 37th edition of the GCSMCH&RC Newsletter. As the year is ending, let me sum this last quarter's journey and milestones of GCSMCH&RC. We started the last quarter with the “Coffee with Lipi” as a par t of the International Coffee Day celebration. These three months were full of festive and celebrations along with this the Omnicron also raised its head, but we are all set for fighting the third wave with adequate equipment and competent staff. I also want to warmly welcome our Medical Superintendent Brig. Dr. Bhandaru Shridhar, with your experience and dedication, I know that we'll accomplish amazing things for the GCSMCH&RC. GCS Womaniya had its first official meeting to discuss further goals and objectives. After the success of GCS Academy courses, we also launched Homecare Assistant Course for further expansion. This upcoming new year will bring many challenges and surprises to our journey and our first challenge would be to face NABH's final accreditation assessment but I'm sure our team will ace this as a piece of cake. I wish all our GCSians a very happy and successful new year. You can also read about various other achievements, activities & updates from around the organization in this 37th issue of the GCSMCH Newsletter. As always, please send us your suggestions on how to improve our newsletter at communications@gcsmc.org. Happy reading.
I hope all of you are vaccinated by now and if not kindly take your shot of immunity. As COVID cases are surfacing, everyone should be extra precautions about their lives. We have inaugurated State-of-the-art Auditorium at GCS Medical College with the capacity of 350 people, I would like to h thank Mrs. Kanchanben Bhikhalal Shah and her family for their generous donation for building this auditorium. Now, we have full-time availability of all major Super-Speciality such as Neurology, Neurosurgery, Gastroenterology, Oncosurgery, Interventional Cardiology, Nephrology, and Urology at GCS Hospital which will be beneficial to patients. Let us take all the necessary precautions to be safe. Cheers to health, happiness, and prosperity in 2022!
I wish all of you Healthy, Joyous and Flourishing New Year of 2022 on behalf of GCS Medical College, Hospital & Research Centre. In 2021, we witnessed enormous challenges to fight against COVID-19 crisis of the second wave. Yet we continued our academic excellence along with pandemics to nurture our goal of producing globally & locally competitive medical graduates. This new year of 2022 brings a new challenge of Omicron Variant. However, the upcoming precaution dose of vaccination may boost the immunity of people and it will help us to reduce the burden of hospitalization as well as morbidity & mortality. I also like to wish the students of Under-graduate and Post-graduate students at our institute for their excellent and bright academic performance in the upcoming Gujarat University Examination. GCS Medical College is eagerly waiting to welcome our upcoming undergraduate & post-graduate students of the new academic batch. Lastly, I wish at GCSMCH&RC we will achieve the training of competent, compassionate, and caring physicians through excellence in patient care and medical research.

CLINICAL CASES Anaesthesia Department
Surgery Department
First time in GCS hospital awake craniotomy was performed. A 52-year female patient had left side superior frontal lobe Glioma. Tumour was near Motor cortex and Brocas area, so awake craniotomy was planned to minimize damage to eloquent cortex and resulting postoperative neurological dysfunction. We managed the case with a Bilateral scalp block along with IV dexmedetomidine. Challenges for Anesthesiologist were: - to keep the patient calm and seek her cooperation during the assessment of the Motor cortex. - to prevent Respiratory depression/ Respiratory arrest. - manage brain edema and intraoperative convulsion. It was really fascinating to talk with a patient with an open brain. The surgery lasted for 4 hours without any complications. The patient started moving with all four limbs with intact sensory and speech.
Department of Surgery organized a Live operative workshop of Hernia Surgeries at GCS Medical College, on 22 Dec'21. During the workshop, a total of 8 surgeries was performed.

Back stretchingstrengthening exercises, the deviation was corrected, and the patient has 70-80% relief from pain
Vaginal Natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) is an emerging technique and has attracted attention as a less invasive procedure with better cosmetic results, decreased postoperative pain, reduced hospital stays and recovery as well as decreased perioperative morbidity than conventional laparoscopy. Dr. Divyesh Panchal performed the first vNOTES hysterectomy of our hospital and Gujarat.
