Gastric banding, once a popular option for weight loss, is gradually losing its relevance as laparoscopic bariatric surgery advances. With the emergence of more effective procedures such as gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy, gastric banding's limitations and complications have become more apparent. The minimally invasive nature and superior outcomes of these newer techniques make them the preferred choices for patients seeking long-term weight loss. Consequently, gastric banding is progressively being overshadowed and considered outdated in the field of laparoscopic bariatric surgery.  MORE

Over 20 lakh obese patients need bariatric surgery in India, say experts. India has greater than 20 lakh morbid obese patients who are required to undergo weight loss surgery. But, currently, you can find around only few skilled bariatric surgeons accessible to perform such minimal access surgical treatments, say experts laparoscopic surgeon Dr. R.K. Mishra and Part of World Association of Laparoscopic Surgeons. For people who are morbidly obese, weight loss laparoscopic or robotic surgery is definitely something people should consider. According to Dr. R.K. Mishra those patient who opt for laparoscopic bariatric surgery instead of a diet and nutrition weight loss method are more likely to lose weight and maintain the weight loss.  MORE

Overview:
Family planning is the process of controlling the number of children by using modern contraception and other methods of birth control. The focus is to address the unmet need for family planning—children who are born because of lack of access to permanent operative contraceptive services—and are a major cause of population boom in Rural India. It helps parents to plan their lives without being overly subject to sexual and social imperatives. It is estimated that about 215 million women worldwide lack access to modern minimal access operative contraception. It is also true that wherever it is available, the use is often limited due to cultural acceptance, women empowerment, affordability and service delivery system. These factors impacted the family planning programmes adversely.   MORE

Learning laparoscopy remains to be an big and challenging issue to the community of surgeons and Gynecologists. Surgeons and Gynecologists in training must learn the laparoscopic techniques from modern and internationally recognized institute of Minimal Access Surgery. Due to increasing a lack of time, cost, stress, and ethical considerations, the current operating room isn't ideal learning environment. The surgeons and gynecologists of present era cannot learn laparoscopy on their patients. Various simulators, live tissue and models for laparoscopic training in urology , gynecology and general surgery with different amounts of validity and reliability can be taken in some reputed and internationally recognized institute. Wide acceptance of laparoscopic training with the use simulators and animal model has become hampered with the lack of standard and valid solutions to measure and certify competence in basic psychomotor skills.  MORE
