STROKE MANAGEMENT
After confirming stroke, a neurologist will prescribe a series of scans, tests, and examinations to identify the way a stroke has affected the neurological system. The standard battery of tests will include MRIs, CT scans, Ultrasound, blood draws, angiograms, and echocardiograms. These tests will shed light on the severity of the stroke as well as the likelihood of another stroke (clotting factor).
Continuous monitoring and regular checkups can help neurologists detect clots and clotting sources before they can cause additional strokes.

EEG – Electroencephalogram
EEG or Electroencephalogram is a test that records the electrical activity of the brain and brain wave patterns.
NCS – Nerve Conduction Study
Nerves control the muscles in the body by electrical signals and this impulse makes the muscles react in specific ways. NCS or Nerve Conduction Study is a non-invasive test that measures how well and how fast the nerves can send electrical signals.
EMG – Electromyography
EMG or Electromyography is an invasive diagnostic procedure to assess the health of muscles and the nerve cells that control them (motor neurons). EMG results can reveal nerve dysfunction, muscle dysfunction, or problems with nerve-to-muscle signal transmission.
ALZHEIMER’s DISEASE
Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive disease of the brain that is characterized by dementia or loss of memory, behavioral changes, and loss of cognitive thinking, which eventually becomes severe affecting everyday simple tasks. The disease is named after Dr. Alois Alzheimer who was the first person to notice some brain tissues changes like amyloid plaques (abnormal clumps) and neurofibrillary (tangled bundles of fibers) in a woman who died of an unusual mental illness.
Symptoms Of Alzheimer’s Disease
- Mild cognitive impairment (MCI), which is characterized by problems with memory that worsens with age, is typically one of the early signs of Alzheimer’s disease. The individual may forget his appointments, lose things more often, cannot come up with appropriate words while conversing with others, etc., however, they are still able to do their day-to-day activities independently at this stage.
- Difficulty in walking and maintaining balance.
- Problems with vision, sense of smell, etc.
- Impaired reasoning
- Difficulty in concentrating.
- Unable to recognize numbers.
- Forgetting names of family and friends
- Unable to perform routine tasks.
- Mood swings
- Depression
- Irritability
- Social withdrawal
If you are concerned about your memory or other thinking skills then consult the best hospital for Alzheimer’s disease treatment in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.
Treatment Of Alzheimer’s Diesease
Treatment of Alzheimer’s disease mainly focuses on slowing the disease progression, and management of cognitive impairment, and improving the patient’s quality of life.
Medications are used to treat mild to moderated Alzheimer's disease and to maintain cognitive function and behavioral disorders. These medications reduce the progression of the disease, regulate neurotransmitters, and reduce behavioral symptoms.
Cholinesterase inhibitors are used to improve neuropsychiatric symptoms like depression by boosting cell-to-cell communication.
Memantine is used to boost the brain cell communication network and slows the progression of the disease.
Supplements like vitamin E, Omega-3 fatty acids, melatonin, etc., may slow the progression of the disease and help to manage symptoms like sleeplessness.
Creating a supportive environment for a person with Alzheimer's disease is very important. Adapting measures like installing sensors on doors, making sure a person takes his medications regularly, accompanying them when they go outside, arranging finances for the treatment, etc. are an important part of care.
If you are looking for the best hospital for Alzheimer’s disease treatment in Ahmedabad then consult Harmony Hospital, Ahmedabad.
Lumbar Puncture
Our brain and spinal cord are surrounded by a fluid called cerebrospinal fluid. Lumbar puncture is a procedure in which the doctor collects a sample of cerebrospinal fluid which can be tested in the lab for diseases of the brain and spinal cord.
Neuro Intensive Care
Patients suffering from brain trauma or disease that requires round-the-clock monitoring and care are admitted into neurointensive care. The neuro ICU has a team of neurological specialists and nurses that are trained and experienced in providing intensive care to patients. They are equipped to detect and treat several neurological disorders at a moment’s notice (stroke, brain hemorrhage, etc.)
NeuroPsychology
This is a science that is concerned with how the brain and the rest of the nervous system influence a person’s cognitive skills and behaviors. More importantly, neuropsychologists mostly focus on how injuries or illnesses of the brain physically affect the cognitive functions and behaviors in patients.
Adult Neurology Services
Some of the common neurological disorders are the spinal cord, muscular dystrophy, myasthenia gravis, epilepsy, and even insomnia.
Solutions in Adult Neurology
We offer a complete range of neurology care including Lumbar Puncture, Tensilon Test, Electroencephalogram, Electromyography, and Sleep Study. A lumbar puncture popularly known as a spinal tap is a procedure to collect and examine the fluid surrounding the brain and the spinal cord to find the cause of infections, inflammation, cancer, or bleeding around the area surrounding the spinal cord or brain.
Acute Management Of Stroke
Most strokes are acute and typically start suddenly and worsen rapidly. Sometimes a stroke may be preceded by a transient ischemic attack (TIA), a temporary stroke that reverses itself before it causes any lasting effects.
Electrophysiology Lab With EEG Video Telemetry And EMG
The dedicated premium lab at Harmony Hospital is equipped with powerful diagnostic instruments. The Electrophysiology lab boasts of high precision Electroencephalogram (EEG), video telemetry and Electromyography (EMG) scans. An electroencephalogram (EEG) is a test that measures and records the electrical activity of the brain. Here, electrical sensors are attached to the patient’s head and the wires connected to a computer. The computer then records the brain’s electrical activity on paper or the monitor. The EMG on the other hand measures muscle response or electrical activity in response to a nerve’s stimulation of the muscle. This test helps detect neuromuscular abnormalities. During the test, one or more small needles (also called electrodes) are inserted through the skin into the muscle.
Treatment Of Various Neuro-Muscular Diseases
The human mind is an intricate web of emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Similarly, the brain operates through electric signals that influence our actions. This intriguing combination is what our immensely talented neurologists and neuropsychologists at Harmony Hospital handle daily.
Dementia
This is a syndrome where there is deterioration in memory, thinking, behavior, and the ability to perform everyday activities. It also affects their language skills and problem-solving ability. Although dementia chiefly affects older people, it is not considered a normal process of aging.
Epilepsy / Including surgeries
Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder in which brain activity becomes abnormal, causing seizures or periods of unusual behavior, sensations, and sometimes loss of awareness. Anyone can develop epilepsy. You are diagnosed with epilepsy if you have one or two unprovoked that were not caused by some known and reversible medical condition like alcohol withdrawal or extremely low blood sugar. Sometimes, the epileptic seizures may be related to a brain injury or a family history of it.
Movement Disorders
Mobility is not always an orthopedic condition. The brain controls our movements and any anomaly in the brain functions can affect the ability to move.
Sleep Disorders
Sleep is essential for rest for our brain which is active throughout the day. Sleep deprivation can cause a whole lot of neurological disturbances and also be life-threatening. Some of the common sleep disorders that need medical guidance and attention include Insomnia, Sleep Apnea, Restless leg Syndrome, REM Sleep Behavior Disorder, Narcolepsy, Sleepwalking, Sleep Terrors, and Bruxism (Teeth Grinding).
Headache
Most of us would have had a headache at some time or the other without causing any serious impact. However, there are different types of headaches that are not always caused by traffic jams or noise pollution. Headaches that are accompanied by fever, stiff neck, confusion, decreased alertness or memory, or neurological symptoms such as visual disturbances, slurred speech, weakness, numbness, or seizures need attention.
Multiple sclerosis
This is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, especially the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves, leading to several symptoms throughout the body. It causes the inflammation of the myelin sheath that surrounds and protects the nerve fibers which transmit electric signals, leading to scarring on the damage of the sheath. They mainly affect the brain stem, the cerebellum, which coordinates movement and controls balance, the spinal cord, the optic nerves, and white matter in some regions of the brain.
Active Neuro Rehabilitation program
Neurological rehabilitation involves strategies to improve function, reduce symptoms and improve the wellbeing of people with diseases, trauma, or disorders of the nervous system that include brain and spinal cord injury.
