Obesity Surgeons and Hospitals in India
Obesity Surgery:
Obesity surgery is performed only on severely overweight people who are more than
twice their ideal weight. This level of obesity often is referred to as morbid obesity since
it can result in many serious, and potentiall
potentially deadly, health problems, including
hypertension, Type II diabetes mellitus (non-insulin
insulin dependent diabetes), increased risk
for coronary disease, increased unexplained heart attack, hyperlipidemia, and a higher
prevalence of colon, prostate, endometrial, and, possibly, breast cancer.
Obesity is the condition of being significantly overweight. It is usually applied to people
who are 30% or more over their ideal body weight. While medical therapy and dietary
therapy and other weight loss treatments can impr
improve weight-related conditions,
surgical weight reduction offers a more durable option to improve most weight
weight–related
medical conditions.

Knee Replacement Surgery in India
Knee replacement surgery also known as knee arthroplasty is procedure to replace the
weight-bearing surfaces of the knee joint to relieve the pain and disability of
osteoarthritis. It may be performed for other knee diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis
and psoriatic arthritis. The procedure has been proven to help individuals return back to
moderately challenging activities such as golf, bicycling, and swimming. Total knees
are not designed for jogging, or sports like tennis and skiing (although there certainly
are people with total knee replacements that participate in such sports). Knee
replacement is a routine surgery performed on over 600,000 people worldwide each
year. Over 90% of people who have had Total Knee Replacement experience an
improvement in knee pain and function.
Knee Replacement Surgery Candidates
A person would be considered a candidate for knee replacement if there is:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Daily pain
The pain is severe enough to restrict work, recreation and ordinary activities of daily living
Significant stiffness in the knee
Significant instability (constant giving way) of the knee
Significant deformity (knock-knees or bow-legs) that hinders normal function of the knee
Damage from arthritic conditions, such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or post-traumatic arthritis
Success Rate of Knee Replacement Surgery:
Knee replacement surgery is recognized as a miracle of modern surgery. Most orthopedic experts consider replacement to be
the best method of handling arthritis in the knee. Knee replacements have literally put hundreds of thousands of Americans
back on their feet and allowed them to enjoy their golden years.
Knee Replacement Surgery Preparations:

•
•
If you smoke, cut down or quit. Smoking changes blood flow patterns, delays healing and slows recovery.
If you drink, don't have any alcohol for at least 48 hours before surgery.
Ask your doctor for pre-surgical exercises. If you are having hip or knee replacement surgery, doing exercises to
strengthen your upper body will help you cope with crutches or a walker after surgery.
Your primary care physician or an internist will conduct a general medical evaluation several weeks before surgery.
This examination will assess your health and your risk for anesthesia. The results of this examination should be
forwarded to your orthopaedic surgeon, along with a surgical clearance.
Shortly before your scheduled surgery, you will probably have an orthopedic examination to review the procedure and
answer any last-minute questions.
You may need to take several types of tests, including blood tests, a cardiogram, a urine sample and a chest X-ray.
Advice your surgeon of any medical conditions you have and of all the medications you are taking. You may need to
stop taking certain medications or your surgeon may recommend substitute medications until your surgery.
Medications such as corticosteroids, insulin or anti-coagulants will need to be managed before and after surgery.
