Emergency Medicine

Procedure Performed At Shalby Hospital

At Shalby Hospital’s Emergency and Trauma Department, we are equipped to handle various critical situations.

Our team of best emergency medicine doctors may perform the following procedures based on the individual patient’s condition:

Life-Saving Interventions Procedure

• Mechanical Ventilation: If a patient’s breathing is compromised, we provide respiratory support through mechanical ventilation (a breathing machine) until their lungs can function independently.
• Arterial Blood Gas (ABG) Analysis: This test helps us quickly assess patients’ oxygen and carbon dioxide levels, giving vital insights into their respiratory, circulatory, and metabolic health.
• Central Line Placement: By inserting a small tube under the shoulder, we establish a secure access point for administering medications, fluids, and drawing blood samples.
• Arterial Line Placement: A thin catheter is placed in an artery, usually in the wrist, for patients requiring continuous blood pressure monitoring.
• Cricothyroidotomy: In airway emergencies, this procedure creates a temporary opening in the trachea to enable breathing.
• Transcutaneous Pacing: This non-invasive technique helps regulate a patient’s heart rhythm using electrical impulses delivered through pads on the chest.
• Defibrillation: In life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias, we use controlled electrical shocks to restore a normal heart rhythm.

Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures

• Joint Aspiration (Arthrocentesis): If a joint is swollen or painful, we may use a needle to remove fluid for analysis, aiding in diagnosis and treatment.
• Endoscopic Foreign Body Retrieval: If a patient has swallowed a foreign object, we can often safely remove it using minimally invasive endoscopic techniques.
• Laryngoscopy: This procedure allows us to examine the throat and vocal cords to diagnose and manage conditions affecting the upper airway.
• Thoracostomy (Chest Tube Insertion): If air or fluid has accumulated around the lungs, we insert a chest tube to drain it and restore normal lung function.
