PM Narendra Modi Praises Indian Doctors for Exceptional Skills in Foetal Heart Surgery

Indian doctors have once again proven their exceptional skills and expertise in the field of medicine. The medical staff at AIIMS Delhi recently received acclaim from Prime Minister Narendra Modi for completing a challenging surgery on a fetal heart the size of a grape in just 90 seconds.  Under ultrasound guidance, the treatment, known as balloon dilation of a blocked valve in the baby's heart, was carried out with the utmost care and accuracy. In order to increase blood flow and eventually the baby's heart development, the doctors used a balloon catheter to unblock the blocked valve. This successful procedure is proof of the exceptional knowledge and expertise of Indian doctors, who have continuously worked hard to push the boundaries of medical innovation. The team of interventional cardiologists and fetal medicine specialists from the Department of Cardiology & Cardiac Anesthesia, along with the Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology of AIIMS, worked tirelessly to ensure the well-being of the mother and the fetus. This rare procedure is a game-changer for babies with serious heart diseases, as it can diagnose and treat them in the mother's womb. Performing such a procedure is challenging and risky, but the team of doctors at AIIMS Delhi displayed remarkable skill and courage to achieve success. In his tweet, Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed his pride and appreciation for the team of doctors at AIIMS Delhi for their remarkable achievement. He lauded their dexterity and innovation in performing this rare and challenging procedure on a grape-size heart of a fetus in just 90 seconds. PM Modi's words of encouragement and recognition are a testament to the exceptional work being done by India's healthcare professionals in advancing medical technology and improving patient outcomes. Their commitment and dedication to their work have brought hope and healing to countless lives and inspired a generation of young doctors to follow in their footsteps.
