Welcome to the Ortho Critical Care Program at MGM Healthcare

There are two cohorts of patients who usually require ortho critical care.

  • The most common reason for someone to be admitted to ICU/CCU with orthopaedic problems is usually trauma. Trauma is any bodily injury that is severe enough to be life threatening. Most trauma patients require elective orthopaedic surgery and monitoring under intensive/critical care units as they are vulnerable to a wide range of complications
  • The other common reason for admission to ICU/CCU that require orthopaedic care and support includes patients with significant comorbidities undergoing elective or emergency orthopaedic procedures.

We have a highly trained medical expertise with vast experience is attending to increasingly complex and challenging cases. Our staff also understands the emotional needs of the care givers. Patients and their visitors will speak with a doctor regularly to ensure they are fully informed of the medical condition at hand.

Patient was first taken to a local hospital in Puducherry for first aid and then transferred via ambulance to MGM Healthcare. On arrival in the ER, patient was immediately attended to by a team of specialists from Orthopaedics, Plastic Surgery and Vascular Surgery.

Multiple surgeries were performed to definitively fix the fractures and skin grafting was performed. Six months later, the patient is doing well and walking.
