About the department
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Otolaryngology at the Primus Super Speciality Hospital New Delhi offers the widest range of diagnostics and treatment of ENT diseases, including cochlear implantation. The department employs highly qualified otolaryngologists, audiologists and speech therapists who work for the benefit of each patient and provide them with effective medical care. The excellent reputation of the department is also facilitated by the ultramodern technical base and the availability of innovative treatments. The department is headed by Dr. med. Ankush Sayal.
Hearing loss can significantly affect the person's quality of life. The department has state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment, which allows to detect and analyze the causes of hearing problems, as well as to develop the optimal treatment plan. The main diagnostic techniques include audiogram, tympanogram, special tests for the detection of imbalance and dizziness, electron histogram, etc.
The most modern and effective treatment method of serious hearing impairments is cochlear implantation. Cochlear implants are electronic devices, which improve the perception of sounds in people with hearing impairments or deafness. Unlike hearing aids, a cochlear implant does not amplify sound, but works by directly stimulating the auditory nerve fibers inside the cochlea using an electric field. The department's specialists are fluent in cochlear implantation in adults and children, as well as in effective postoperative rehabilitation.
The department's doctors also specialize in middle ear surgery, which is used for the treatment of hearing impairments, infectious diseases, deformities and tumors, as well as inner ear surgery aimed at the improvement of sound transmission from the ear to the auditory cortex. In addition, the department treats hearing impairment using the very latest digital hearing aids, which give patients the opportunity to restore their hearing and return to normal life.
The department's competence also includes the treatment of diseases of the nose and paranasal sinuses, including sinusitis. Most patients with sinusitis can get rid of the disease by means of antibacterial drugs, nasal drops, sprays or tablets. In rare cases, the patients with severe sinusitis may require surgery. The department's surgeons perform endoscopic operations on the paranasal sinuses, which do not require incisions in the face and oral cavity.
The department deals with the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea and snoring accompanying this pathology. Every person needs a healthy sleep, therefore, the experienced doctors of the department make every effort to improve the quality of life of patients.
The main clinical focuses of the department include:
- ENT surgery
