Experts at Indraprastha Apollo’s annual conclave discuss stroke management standards

New Delhi: Indraprastha Apollo Hospital recently organized its annual CME (Continuing Medical Education) session on stroke management in New Delhi. The session was organized in collaboration with Innovative Physicians Forum (IPF) and attended by 200 doctors across the country.

During the event leading specialists discussed the latest promising advances impacting prevention, diagnosis and treatment of stroke. Innovative devices for blood clot removal, portable imaging scanners, and immersive rehab mechanisms demonstrate measurable gains against this widespread condition. For India’s experts on the frontlines, events like the Stroke Awareness Programme prove invaluable—building collective knowledge to enhance outcomes for affected families. Though much work lies ahead, Indraprastha Apollo stands at the forefront of uniting the medical community to push new boundaries for life-saving stroke interventions.

Spotlighting the tremendous progress made in advancing stroke care, Dr PN Renjen, Senior Consultant, Neurology, Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, Delhi said, “Ongoing advances continue extending and improving quality of life for stroke survivors. Innovations unforeseen even several years ago like swift thrombectomy procedures, portable imaging for rapid diagnosis, and virtual reality rehab mechanisms promise new hope. Our state-of-the-art facilities enable leading comprehensive acute through rehabilitative stroke treatment. However, continued education is crucial to expand this level of care across India, where limited awareness and access persists. By uniting renowned experts in this forum year after year, we can translate recent promising developments into standardized best practices – saving lives and maximizing recovery for so many in need.”

As stroke remains the second leading global killer, Indraprastha Apollo Hospital’s Department of Neurosciences pursues consistent advances in care. By conducting specialized annual symposiums for primary doctors and specialists alike, the organization spotlights pioneering developments that promise improved prevention, swifter diagnosis, and upgraded treatments for stroke victims.
