NEUROLOGY

Neurology is the special branch of medicine that deals with the nervous system – brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerves and muscles.

Neurological disorder may affect any and all stages of life, from seizures in children to memory impairment in elderly. We, at CIMS neurology, offer you the best of care in the field of neurology, by highly qualified neurologists and supported by state-of-the-art clinical neurophysiology lab & neuroradiology.

Neurology department attempts to provide compassionate, latest, evidence-based, cost-effective care to all segments of the society. Our department is the place of one of the best Stroke Programs in the city of Ahmedabad.

Most of the neurology patients need individualized, but special care through multidisciplinary comprehensive approach.  Besides, evaluation and management of the disorder, prevention is also mainstay of neurology care.

We are best supported by our Neurosurgery Department with an experienced team of surgeons, specialized in trauma care and all kinds of procedures.

We focus on risk factor identification and early treatment, across all neurological disorder spectrums:

• Headache and other pain syndromes (migraine)
• Epilepsy (convulsion/seizure)
• Stroke (paralysis)
• Giddiness (dizziness, vertigo)
• Movement disorders (such as Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor and dystonia)
• Dementia (Alzheimer’s and other)
• Infections of the brain (Meningitis, Encephalitis)
• Cerebral palsy and spasticity
• Multiple sclerosis
• Spine disorders (backache, “slip-disc”, radiculopathy, spondylosis)
• Nerve and muscle diseases ( including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, peripheral neuropathy, myasthenia gravis, muscular dystrophy, myopathies)
• Sleep disorders
• Mental/behavioral health disorders

• Advanced 32 channel Digital EEG machine (with portability and video recording facility)
• 4 Channel EMG-NCS machine (with portability)
• Advanced multi-slice CT scanner (Computed Tomography)
• MRI ( Radiology )
• Stroke Unit
• Neurosurgery ( Neurosurgery )
• Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation ( Physiotherapy Rehabilitation)
• Psychology

Stroke Unit

At CIMS, we have a dedicated 24X7 functioning stroke unit – one of the most advanced centre in Ahmedabad, for diagnosis, management, prevention and research of stroke and cerebro-vascular disorders.

The focus is early recognition, speed of treatment and cutting-edge treatment advances. From the time a patient arrives in an ambulance, our team starts the evaluation protocol to start treatment, as early as possible. TIME IS BRAIN.

“Clot dissolving” medicines in the early hours of ischemic stroke (in less than 4.5 hours) often proves lifesaving and always reduces burden of the disease. Other advanced treatment options at CIMS include mechanical clot removal/ thrombectomy. The cath-lab is equipped for the all kinds of neuro-endovascular procedures, including coiling of aneurysms and stenting of stenosed vessels.

ADD FAST SYMPTOMS

We are a committed team of neurologists, nurses, technicians and support staff, involved in the highest possible neurological care and education of each and every patient. We also focus on newer research and community disease awareness & prevention campaign.
