100 Lives Transformed: Malla Reddy Narayana Hospital Celebrates the Success of Over 100 Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgeries

Hyderabad, 17th January 2024:* Malla Reddy Narayana Hospital has achieved a significant milestone, successfully performing over 100 Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgeries (MICS), transforming the lives of patients with advanced cardiac care. The hospital organized a grand press meet to celebrate this achievement, inviting all 100 patients who had undergone the procedure. These patients, now fully recovered and leading normal lives, shared their inspiring journeys.
The event highlighted the exceptional expertise of *Dr. Harish Badami* , a highly respected cardiac surgeon known for his groundbreaking work in minimally invasive procedures. Dr. Badami’s commitment to personalized heart care has earned him the trust of patients across Hyderabad. Patients lauded his skill and compassion, crediting him for their swift recovery and improved quality of life.
*A Patient-Centric Approach to Heart Care*
Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery involves performing complex heart procedures through small incisions in the chest, avoiding the need to cut through the breastbone as in traditional open-heart surgery. This advanced approach reduces physical strain on the body, enabling quicker recovery and less postoperative pain.
Among the patients was *Patient 1* , who expressed his gratitude: “Dr. Harish Badami and his team gave me a new lease on life. Their careful monitoring during my hospital stay ensured I recovered without complications. The team got me up and walking within days and taught me exercises that made a huge difference to my recovery.”
*Patient 2 shared her story* : “I was apprehensive about undergoing heart surgery, but the minimally invasive technique changed everything. I experienced minimal pain and was able to return to my routine within weeks. The care team’s guidance on managing pain and monitoring my incisions was invaluable.”
The hospital’s commitment to follow-up care was also evident in the testimony of *Patient 3:* “Dr. Harish Badami’s expertise and the hospital’s cutting-edge facilities ensured my surgery was a success. The regular follow-ups helped me adopt a heart-healthy lifestyle, including a proper diet and exercise routine. I feel healthier than ever.”
*Revolutionizing Cardiac Care with MICS*
The minimally invasive approach uses advanced tools and high-definition cameras, allowing surgeons to perform procedures such as coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), mitral valve repair, and aortic valve replacement through 2-4 inch incisions. An additional technique introduced in the department, Endoscopic Vein Harvesting (EVH), adds value to MICS. EVH is a minimally invasive procedure where a vein is removed from the leg for use in CABG. This procedure results in less pain, smaller scars, quicker recovery, and a lower risk of infection or bleeding compared to traditional vein harvesting methods. Most patients are able to resume normal activities within two weeks.
*The Benefits of MICS include:*
• *Smaller Incisions:* Less scarring, reduced pain, and faster recovery.
• *Reduced Blood Loss:* Lower risk of complications and need for transfusions.
• *Quicker Recovery:* Patients resume normal activities sooner.
• *Lower Risk of Complications:* Fewer risks of infection, stroke, or respiratory issues.
• *Improved Quality of Life:* Patients experience less pain and a smoother postoperative journey.
*Dr. Preeti Reddy, Director of Malla Reddy Health City* , said, “For the first time in North Hyderabad, under the leadership of Dr. Harish Badami (Cardiology), we are successfully conducting minimally invasive surgeries at Malla Reddy Narayana Hospital at an affordable cost. Patients are able to recover completely within just two weeks. We urge everyone to take advantage of this advanced technology for heart health.”
*Dr. Bhadra Reddy, Chairman of Malla Reddy Health City* , added, “In the last 10 months alone, we have successfully completed 100 minimally invasive cardiac surgeries at Malla Reddy Narayana Hospital. Over the next three months, we plan to introduce robotic surgeries to perform complex procedures in minimal time, enabling faster recovery for patients. We are equipping the hospital with cutting-edge technology and machinery to achieve this goal.”
