Aligarh: The Department of Anaesthesiology and Critical Care at JN Medical College in Aligarh Muslim University campus organized a lecture with hands-on training on “Peripheral nerves and fascia interventions for pain management in broken bones” by Dr Anamika Yadav, Consultant, Pain Medicine and Anaesthesiology of CK Birla Hospital in Gurugram.

Dr Yadav talked about the role of various minimally invasive interventional techniques in the management of pain in patients with long bone fractures especially fractures of the femur, pelvis and shoulder girdle and highlighted the fact that patients with these fractures not only suffer from severe degrees of pain but this can also lead to serious cardiovascular co-morbidity if not managed adequately.

She demonstrated USG-guided interventions in patients suffering from pain due to fractures of the femur and shoulder girdle.

Earlier, Prof Hammad Usmani, Chairperson, Department of Anaesthesiology, welcomed the guest speaker and thanked the Dean, Faculty of Medicine, Prof Veena Maheshwari for sparing time to attend the lecture.
