New Delhi: Knee osteoarthritis is the most prevalent form of arthritis in India, affecting an estimated 15 million people, particularly those over the age of 50. In view of creating awareness on knee joint care, Aakash Healthcare launched the largest digital session and entered into the Guinness World Record with this unique initiative.
Aakash Healthcare achieved a groundbreaking milestone by conducting the largest digital awareness session on knee joint care, setting a new Guinness World Record. This initiative, aimed at educating the public about knee joint health and arthritis prevention, has garnered global attention and set a new standard in healthcare outreach.
The session also broke the record for the maximum number of views within 24 hours, reflecting the high level of public interest and engagement with this critical health issue.
The 24-hour marathon learning program, led by Dr Aashish Chaudhry, Managing Director & Head of Orthopedics & Joint Replacement at Aakash Healthcare Super Speciality Hospital, was uploaded on the Aakash Healthcare YouTube channel at 10 am on August 10th. The session focused on knee joint care, addressing a critical need given the rising incidence of knee problems in India.
“Knee joint issues are a growing concern in India, with studies showing that nearly 15% of the population over 50 years of age suffer from knee pain, primarily due to osteoarthritis. This session is about empowering individuals with the knowledge they need to maintain healthy knees throughout their lives while also achieving a world record,” emphasized Dr. Chaudhry.
The session covered a comprehensive range of topics, including the causes and symptoms of knee arthritis, preventive measures to avoid knee joint problems, effective treatments, and the latest medical advancements.
