PROFESSIONAL JOURNEY -

He has bought LAURALS to SMS medical college Jaipur and the state of Rajasthan by performing first

HEART TRANSPLANT

A LANDMARK in history of SMS Medical college and state of Rajasthan Performed TWO SUCCESSFUL HEART TRANSPLANTS INDEPENDENTLY First in Government Sector, S.M.S. Medical College in NORTH INDIA.

He has postulated, planned , trained the team and executed the Heart Transplant in a government sector(without any MOU or External aid from any other institution)

SAVED BILLIONS OF DOLLARS by either innovating , developing or improvising existing techniques in field of cardio vascular surgery.

His work in Minimally Invasive cardiac surgery is getting National and International Recognition and put the government medical college on international platform.
The evolution of surgical skill is upto that extent where in selected cases the patient is being given a choice of side of incision ( right or left )

Performed a spectrum of operative procedures ( at present on globe ) via MINI THORACOTOMY without femorofemoral bypass .As a part of COSMETIC open heart surgeries, Invented improved and a cost effective procedure for mini- thoracotomy with conventional instruments without femoro-femoral by-pass and, performing almost all types of adult and paediatric open heart operations without cutting sternal ( chest) bone and without a groin incision facilitating early discharge and rehabilitation.

Till date in his unit almost all types of open heart surgeries are being performed with this method viz -

ASD CLOSURE
PULMONARY VALVOTOMY
VSD CLOSURER VSD
Pulmonary Valvotomy- Left Thoracotomy
Pulmonary Valvotomy with VSD closure -- left thoracotomy
Sub Aortic VSD Closure with Aortic Valve Replacement

Right Thoracotomy ASD Closure with Pulmonary Valvotomy -
Right Thoracotomy -Pulmonary Valvotomies -
Left Thoracotomy - ASD Closures-
Left Thoracotomy - ASDClosure with Pulmonary Valvotomy –
This surgical work is UNHEARD in field of cardiac surgery .

So far more than 2000 open heart operations have been done in his unit.

This is the largest series of its kind in the world.

A new concept was introduced by his Herculean efforts in the field of cardiac surgery at SMS Hospital Jaipur, which was ( in 1990s) against the existing medical guidelines of that era.

5 . FIRST TIME demonstrated in year 1995 (with proof and excellent results) that valve replacements in open heart surgery CAN BE and SHOULD BE performed successfully in severe cases (considered inoperable by existing medical guide line in those days) of chronic Severe Rheumatic mitral, aortic or mixed regurgitant lesions with ejection fraction less than 25% with excellent early, mid-term and late survival(who otherwise are candidates for cardiac transplant). Total 107 surgeries have been performed till date with excellent long term (20 year) follow up.

He has a Unique experience in performing vascular surgery specifically in end stage arterial disease of lower limb who would have lost their limbs otherwise, thus preventing surgical amputation ( in complex considerd In-Operable cases - patients of chronic limb ischemia Rutherford class IV-VI) where patients present with ischemic ulcerations pre gangrene or frank gangrene, where no treatment modality used to be considered effective. His extensive surgical procedure of primary atherectomy and patch plasty offered unbelievable results (symptomatic relief in 85 5 cases )preventing the need of amputation. Published in vol 3 IJVES - 2016 .

Innovated a new method in repair of Oesophagus using Pericardium as Neo- Oesophagus( a series of 3 cases with 5 year follow up this technique is applied for the first time in history for repair of chronically impacted oesophgeal foreign bodies) --Published in IJCTVS.

Innovated a new technique of sliding tracheoplasty in surgery of benign Tracheal tumors (a case series of 6 cases).

He has Performed more than 20,000 open heart , thoracic and vascular surgeries.

Invented a new technique for Thoraco-Femoral bypasses surgery.

Closed Atrial Septal defect successfully on BEATING HEART by a new method in patients of ESRD (end stage renal disease) -4 cases .

Performed Intracardiac repair in PENTOLOY via mini-thoracotomy in history.

Large LA Myxomas were removed by a New Technique without cutting chest bone right mini-thoracotomy with conventional instruments where the atrial septal defect was closed with indigenously developed method . (Our method of repair by native septal tissue and wall of right atrium.) This is the World’s First Surgery in the History of Cardiac Surgery - success story of 6 cases .

First time used Thrombolytic therapy using urokinase/streptokinase in delayed presentations (more than 1 month old) in cases of chronic DVT with excellent outcome.

Discovered that post operative patients of valve replacements can have normal diet.

Discovered that Warfarin can be given simultaneously with Coumarins in resistant cases where patient is resistant to one of the drug

Introduced very economic method of Endotracheal suction catheter cardioplegia in open heart surgeries ( saved $250 /patient in more than 10000 patients )

Introduced modified management protocol of iv urokinase in late presentations of STUCK VALVES ( at 1-3 months ) with excellent results - a series of 6 cases.

Developed a new method of rapid pleural aspiration using blood donor set ( in 1987 as SR - gen.surgery)

Developed an indigenous method use of Indwelling Cavafix catheter for aspiration of large and recurrent pericardial effusions (in 1986 as SR Gen Surg.)

Developed an indigenous blood collection system using glass bottles of i v fluids for collection of intra-operative blood loss and subsequent autologous transfusion. We use these bottles at 7 places in ICU, OTs and wards which is very cost effective .

Using Endotracheal suction catheter as cardioplegia cannula and saved 250 dollars per patient in over 10000 open heart surgeries.

FIRST TIME discovered (in 1995-96) that IVC FILTER is not required with thrombolytic therapy in cases of DVT.

Performed a Unique operation of removal of a very thick and large iron rod (wire inforced Sabbal ) which was more than One Inch Thick and 5 feet Long, without cardiopulmonary bypass, ACROSS the chest with survival of the patient in the History.(patient Rangalal of DAUSA)

LUNG RE-IMPLANTION procedure was performed in 1998 ( patient named Mustakeen of TONK ) with delayed presentation of traumatic amputation of right lung.

FIFTH redo open heart surgery was performed successfully in a patient name Ram singh of ( Ghatgate)Jaipur.

In 2001 an extraordinary surgery was performed (in a patient of TONK named Aasim who had twelve cardiac defects). TAPVC with severe MITRAL REGURGITATION with severe TRICUSPID REGURGITATION with three ASDs with two VSDs with two PDAs on same side and congenital AORTIC VALVULAR STENOSIS with SUBAORTIC MEMBRANE with suprasystemic pulmonary artery pressures .A successful repair of all cardiac anomalies with mitral valve replacement with repair of Tricuspid valve in one sitting was done successfully.( pt.Aasim of TONK )

Developed and Remodeled the existing department.

Due to his credibility and solo efforts the government of Rajasthan has granted a budget of Rs. 20 crores for upgrdation of the department and setting up a heart transplant unit .

Has convinced the government to start diploma course in perfusion technology at SMS hospital .

30. The government of Rajasthan granted another special package of 7.5 crores to my department (year 2021)

31.Instrumental in getting another grant of Rs. 5 crores.

32.VARIOUS RENNOVATIONS were done via me from time to time for the upliftment of the depertment

In 2008- CTOT was renovated

In 2012—CTICU was renovated

In 2010—BMRC ICU WAS UPGRADED

In 2010 -- 3RD OT was renovated in BMRC Campus

In 2014 – AIR COOLING system was installed in CT ward

In 2017—Oxygen and Vcuum suction boards ( like icu ) were installed on each bed in OLD

CT Ward

In 2019—HEART TRANSPLANT OPERATION theater and HEART TRANSPLANT ICU were designed and made.

33.At present working to build a new state of art center of cardiac sciences.
