As contemporary lifestyles continue to evolve, an array of physical complications is on the rise across generations. This surge isn't limited to adults; even children are grappling with a spectrum of diseases. Among these burgeoning health concerns, epilepsy stands out as a significant challenge faced by today's youth. Epilepsy, fundamentally a complex neurological disorder, often induces unconsciousness in children, characterized by facial contortions, drooling, and muscle rigidity. However, with proper treatment, this condition is entirely manageable. Recognizing the gravity of such ailments, HP Ghosh Hospital has pioneered efforts to ensure accessible treatment for the general populace.
In a recent interview with Anandabazar Online, Dr. Arundhati Banerjee, a consultant pediatric neurologist, shed light on the focus of the department on addressing various neurological issues affecting children. Epilepsy emerges as a prevalent concern among pediatric patients, alongside conditions like Pediatric Stroke, Febrile Seizure, Autism, and ADHD.
Dr. Banerjee emphasized the specialized attention accorded to the pediatric neurology department at HP Ghosh Hospital, underscoring the distinctive nature of neurological ailments in children compared to those in adults. The hospital's commitment is evidenced by its state-of-the-art facilities, including multiple ICUs and advanced diagnostic tools like EEG, MRI, and CT scans, complemented by both inpatient and outpatient services. Leveraging these resources, early detection and effective treatment of neurological disorders in children are made possible, fostering a brighter prognosis for young patients.
