At times we feel helpless looking at our family member or a friend whose life has been adversely affected by a spinal cord injury making him/her confined to bed or chair. Someone having cancer and leading a painful life as most of the pain killers have stopped working or even our grad parent who have been suffering due to diabetes and have developed diabetic neuropathy that is causing pain. Even old poeple around us who have lost bladder control. Medical advancements in India have answers to all these situations. The solution is part of functional neurosurgery called Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS). The procedure is a minimally invasive procedure done for all above problems and has shown excellent results in patients.
Dr Jaspreet Singh Randhawa and Dr Aditya Gupta who are extensively trained neurosurgeon in Punjab and NCR, India with exceptional skills in Functional Neurosurgery. They are probably the only neurosurgeons with such an expertise in entire Punjab, Himachal Pradesh, Uttrakhand, Jammu & Kashmir, Delhi/NCR and even North Eastern Part of India.
Spinal Cord Stimulation is used most often after non-surgical pain treatment options have failed to provide sufficient relief. Spinal cord stimulators may be used to treat or manage different types of chronic pain. Most common conditions that are treated at our centre in Mohali in Punjab, India are:
- Back Pain that continues even after surgery (failed back surgery syndrome)
- Post Surgical Pain Management
- Pain due to spinal cord injury
- Treatment of paraplegic patients
- Pain due to Diabetic Neuropathy
- Pain in Cancer Patients due to chemotherapy or radiation therapy
- Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD)
- Old age patients with lost bladder control
The procedure is performed by Dr Jaspreet Singh Randhawa and Dr Aditya Gupta under local anaesthesia or at times under short general anaesthesia. It is done in two phases, the first phase is the trial phase wherein the functional neurosurgeon would implant a temporary device for you to test out. Our Neurosurgeon will carefully insert the electrodes in the epidural space of the spine with help of guidance through x ray. This just requires a small cut at the back for putting in the electrodes. After a week if patient feels significant relief in pain then the permanent procedure is done. The implant used here has three parts, electordes, a battery and a remote. The battery is placed underneath the skin and the trial electrodes are replaced with sterile electrodes. The remote is used by the patient to control the stimulation depending upon the intensity of the pain. Generally the patients are discharged the next day of the procedure.
Dr Jaspreet Singh Randhawa is one of the best trained and highly qualified neurosurgeon for functional neurosurgery like Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) in Punjab in Northern India. The cost of the surgery depends upon the the type of implant used for the surgery. There are two types of implants that are available in case of Spinal Cord Stimulation Surgery. One is normal implant with a battery life, which needs to be replaced and the other one if the implant with the rechargeable battery. The cost of rechargeable battery implant is more than the normal implant and hence the total cost of the surgery is also more in later case. The choice of the implant is done keeping in mind the long term benefit to the patient. Hence it is advisable to consult Dr Jaspreet Singh Randhawa for the treatment and understanding the cost.
If you have an individual health insurance policy then this surgery is covered after a period of 2 years from the date of inception of the policy. However if you are a beneficiary of company given policy then the surgery is covered from day one. Some insurance companies do not cover this surgery under the guise of genetic disorder. Always go through the terms of your health insurance policy like room rent capping and co-payment to avoid any kind of financial shocks later on.
