Journey from Kolkata to Bathinda for a pain-free walk

This is a heart touching story of a lady, Harbans Kaur and her experience with Nagpal Superspeciality Hospital Bathinda. She hit the road and travelled across 2000 kms from Kolkata to Bathinda for her Robotic Knee Replacement. Her journey of pain to happiness, which started with growing pain over the years and ended with a successful robotic knee surgery at Nagpal Superspeciality Hospital,in just 3 days. She suffered a lot because of her knees. She was unable to sleep whole night due to severe pain in her knees, it was a challenge for her to even walk a few steps without support. She visited more than 20 doctors in and out of her state. She got more than 50 types of medicines but the sufferings kept on increasing with each passing day. At last she was advised for knee surgery. She tried to delay it as she feared surgery. When pain was unbearable and no relief was there with medicines, she searched online for the best knee replacement technologies. She came to know about the Fully Active Robotic technology which comes with many benefits like less blood loss, less soft tissue damage and early recovery. Now she had to search for one good robotic surgeon, then she found Dr. Parampreet Singh Nagpal, the surgeon with over 700+ robotic surgeries experience. She was impressed by the expertise and positive feedbacks from their patients across social media platforms. She saw hundreds of patient stories who were suffering just like her, which gave her confidence as she connected with them because of her similar story. Moreover the surgeon had done more than 8000 successful surgeries and awarded as a best joint Surgeon by Punjab Govt, which gave her immense confidence, that she would recover well too. After making up her mind she decided to visit bathinda and meet Dr. P.S. Nagpal to know more. On her first visit she met the surgeon and got all her queries answered. She also met few of the recently treated patients and was happy to see them walking pain-free and without any support. She also made her mind for robotic knee replacement. She was really happy with the recovery and stood on her feet, and walked support free again without any pain on just 3rd day after robotic surgery. She started walking pain free on her own and went back home with a new life and a pain-free walk. Her experience with Nagpal superspeciality hospital Bathinda became a beautiful journey of her life and she really seemed to be feeling proud of her decision of getting her knee surgery done at a distanced place.

PRIDE OF MALWA Award for Excellence in Robotic Surgeries

Dr. Parampreet Nagpal, a distinguished knee surgeon, deserves the highest praise and recognition for his exceptional contributions to the field of orthopedic surgery. With a combination of remarkable skill, unwavering dedication, and compassionate care, Dr. Nagpal has positively impacted the lives of countless individuals suffering from knee-related ailments. The journey started back in 2011 when he joined my nagpal superspeciality hospital after completing his post graduation(M.S.Ortho) and M.Ch. Ortho, at that time Bathinda was still not having a joint replacement centre, every second patient presenting to him was suffering from hip and knee issues. He discussed the same with his father, who has always been a visionary in healthcare and has brought so many 1st treatments to Malwa region. And then he decided to take a path no one had taken in our region, and he dared to dream of bringing joint replacements at peoples doorstep in Bathinda. 2012 October, he got selected for a joint replacement fellowship at ENDO-KLINIK, Hamburg, Germany. One of the best joint replacement centres of the world, operating a massive 60-70 joints every day, including primary and redo joint surgeries. That started a wonderful journey of learning and bringing world class facilities to our region. The learning has never stopped, the zeal to do good and give the best to patients of our region is still fresh. Since then, he has trained in USA(twice, 5 different hospitals), Australia , Belgium , Netherlands , Turkey , Munich (Germany) at worlds top centres for hip and knee replacement, computer navigation assisted knee replacement, Robotic knee replacement and revision (redo) knee and hip replacement. Every place he visited, anything new he saw, was brought back home for the patients. 2014, nagpal hospital became the 1st hospital in the malwa region to bring 1 st modular operation theatre, to minimise the complication of infection for our patients. 2015 he brought the 1 st total exhaust body helmet system of Malwa region, which is also instrumental in infection prevention. He started computer navigation assisted knee replacement using 4 th generation system, which helped deliver more precision in surgery leading to early recovery for patients. He then embarked on the teaching journey and also started a training fellowship under him, to train young surgeons the tips and tricks of surgery that he has acquired over so much time. Having trained more than 15 surgeons since then is a proud thing for the region as fellows from all over india and abroad visit to learn. Many publications in international journals to his name, shows his keen interest in academics and teaching. In 2021 he learned that robotic joint replacement was now making its way into india . The question arose, will it help improve the results. With experience of 10+ years, havin done more than 5000 joint replacements at that time , being personally satisfied with 95% of the surgeries he did. He questioned himself again, can something be done to improve on the last 5 %. He then explored all the various robots for joint surgery available. MAKO , CORI , ROSA, VELYS and CUVIS . All robots other than CUVIS were semi-active robots, leaving the scope for a manual error. So he chose to train on CUVIS Total active joint robotic system, the only one of its type across the world. During training he realised that with proper training, and with CUVIS ROBOTIC assistance, he could deliver even better results to his patients. Now the challenge was, to learn something new, come out of the comfort zone, grasp new knowledge, and that all happened by 2022 end. Having been satisfied with his training with the new robotic system, having analysed its superior results, having seen the patients recover faster, see them perform functionally better was good enough motivation for him all this time. In January 2023 he launched the 1 st fully active joint replacement surgery robot (cuvis joint) of whole Punjab at Nagpal super speciality hospital, Bathinda. A dream that started in 2011 , of bringing joint replacement facilities to our region To today, bringing the latest and the best technique in joint replacement (total active robotics) in our state of Punjab, its been nothin short of a dream. And my friends, dreams do come true, all it needs is Waheguru jis mehar, family support, will power, dare to dream, self-belief and a never say die attitude , to keep learning and improving. And today we have created a history by doing 127 robotic knee replacements in March,2024.maximum done across india in a month. This achievement sets a new benchmark in the region, as it represents the highest number of such procedures performed at any given point in time in North India. This accomplishment underscores the hospital's commitment to utilizing advanced technologies and providing state-of-the-art surgical interventions to enhance patient outcomes. It is with the utmost admiration and gratitude that we praise Dr. Parampreet Nagpal for his remarkable contributions as a knee surgeon. His expertise, compassion, and unwavering dedication to his patients are a true inspiration to the medical community and a testament to the positive difference that one individual can make in the lives of many. He now becomes only the 3rd surgeon in india and 1st surgeon in north india to have 2 different company joint sugery robots, CUVIS and CORI.. Just for his patients to have more options for knee surgery implants. Being awarded the best knee replacement surgeon by punjab govt in 2021 is another accomplishment to his name. He is a renowned faculty in national and international conferences and is holding the national flag high with his achievememts.

Can you have knee surgery if you are overweight? ( knee surgery for obese patients)

Medical practitioners have long advised patients to lose weight before knee surgery. Patients living with obesity, defined by a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, are especially warned of surgical complications, risk of infection and poor outcomes due to their high BMI. people carrying a lot of excess weight have long been considered at higher risk for complications, and less likely to experience the profound pain relief expected from this major operation. Indeed, several studies describe higher rates of infections and dislocations and lower rates of good results after hip or knee replacement among the obese, especially the severely obese. But many of these studies are more than decade old, and newer studies are beginning to paint a different picture. A recent study on the risks and benefits of joint replacement among the obese sheds new — and positive — light on an issue that affects many thousands of people. Knee replacement surgery in obese patients is difficult to perform. There are more chances of implant malposition and mal-alignment with the conventional technique in obese patients due to the excessive fat around the leg. Also, ligament balancing is difficult in obese patients. But the advancements in technology made things easier for everyone, Fully Active Robotics plays an important role in obese patients, as it helps in achieving accurate alignment and balance in the knee and thus excellent results. It's helpful for both patients and surgeons to bring 100% accuracy. According to Dr. P.S. Nagpal, patients with morbid obesity do not experience any such complications post- fully activebRobotic TKR ,do as well as patients with lower BMI after surgery, experiencing good outcomes, including decreased pain and improved function. "Patients with morbid obesity can have similar functional increases after TKR or THR as patients with lower BMI who have the surgery," says Dr. P.S. Nagpal. "The vast majority get through surgery successfully as robotic technique is accurate, less blood loss and no chances of infection are there. There are many patients you can see on our social media pages who are with high BMI and over weighted. They all are able to walk support free and no major complications were there. Most of them started walking in 24 hours after Robotic TKR. If you are a patient or patient's relative and seek more information on robotic total knee replacement, send an enquiry or ask your specific question directly to Dr. P.S. Nagpal, best orthopedic joint replacmeent surgeon in Punjab. Alternatively, you can book an appointment for a face-to-face consultation @ 9855163355.

Journey of Robotics

Myself, Dr.Parampreet Singh Nagpal M.S.Ortho K.M.C Manipal, M.ch. (ortho) USAIM, joint Replacement Surgeon in Bathinda, Punjab. Back in 2011 I joined my own family hospital after completing my post graduation, at that time Bathinda was still not having a joint replacement centre, every second patient presenting to me was suffering from hip and knee issues. I discussed the same with my father, who has always been a visionary in healthcare and has brought so many 1 st treatments to Malwa region. He guided me to take a path no one had taken in our region, and I dared to dream of bringing joint replacements at peoples doorstep in Bathinda. 2012 october, I got selected for a joint replacement fellowhip at ENDO-KLINIK, hamburg, Germany. One of the best joint replacement centres of the world, operating a massive 60-70 joints every day, including primary and redo joint surgeries. My 1 st born son, was 16 days old at that time. Had to make that hard choice, family support was immense and my wife stood like a pillar and asked me to go ahead and go train in joint replacements and fulfil the family dream. That started a wonderful journey of learning and bringing world class facilities to our region. The learning has never stopped, the zeal to do good and give the best to patients of our region is still fresh. Since then, I have trained in USA(twice, 5 different hospitals), Australia , Belgium , Netherlands , Turkey , Munich (Germany) at worlds top centres for hip and knee replacement, computer navigation assisted knee replacement and revision (redo) knee and hip replacement. Every fellowhip tought me so much, the technique was better every time I came back and I could deliver better and precise results to my patients. Every place I visited, anything new I saw, I brought it back home for my patients. 2014, we made the 1 st modular operation theatre of Malwa region, to minimise the complication of infection for our patients. 2015 we brought the 1 st total exhaust body helmet system of Malwa region, which is also instrumental in infection prevention. 2017 we started computer navigation assisted knee replacement using 4 th generation system, which helped deliver more precision in surgery leading to early recovery for our patients. I also started a training fellowship under me, to train young surgeons the tips and tricks of surgery that I acquired over so much time, coz there was no one to mentor me. Having trained 8 surgeons since then is a proud feeling, and also keeps me learning and improving, coz u learn when you teach. With my fellows we have published our results in international journals. In 2021 I learned that robotic joint replacement was now making its way into india . The question arose, will it help improve our results. With experience of 10+ years, havin done more than 4000 joint replacements at that time , being personally satisfied with 95% of the surgeries I did. I questioned myself again, can something be done to improve on the last 5 %. I explored all the various robots for joint surgery available. MAKO , CORI , ROSA, VELYS and CUVIS .

Having been satisfied with my training with the new robotic system, having analysed its superior results, having seen the patients recover faster, see them perform functionally better was good enough motivation for me all this time. The next challenge was the enormous price that the robot comes at. Family support was again instrumental in overcoming the barrier. We side by side upgraded our hospital, new rooms were made, new lift was installed. A dedicated floor for robotic joint replacement patients was made. In january 2023 we launched the 1 st fully active joint replacement surgery robot (cuvis joint) of whole Punjab at Nagpal superspeciality hospital, Bathinda. A dream that started in 2011 , of bringing joint replacement facilitied to our region. At times when many seniors and colleagues never believed that I could deliver good results or be able to thrive in this field. To today, bringing the latest and the best technique in joint replacement (total active robotics) in our state of Punjab, its been nothin short of a dream. And my friends, dreams do come true, all it needs is Waheguru jis mehar, family support, will power, dare to dream, self-belief and a never say die attitude , to keep learning and improving.
