FAQs

Q: What conditions are managed by a specialist in internal medicine that a general physician may not handle?
Internal medicine specialists manage complex, multi-system chronic diseases and undifferentiated symptoms that require deep diagnostic investigation. They are specifically trained to treat patients with multiple co-morbidities, such as advanced metabolic disorders, autoimmune diseases, and difficult-to-manage infections.
Q: What is critical care medicine and what types of patients are admitted to a medical ICU?
Critical care medicine focuses on the diagnosis and management of life-threatening conditions that require constant monitoring and organ support. Patients admitted to a medical ICU typically include those suffering from acute respiratory failure, septic shock, multi-organ dysfunction, or severe metabolic imbalances.
Q: What is ECMO therapy and for which critical conditions is it used in intensive care?
ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) is an advanced life-support system that takes over the function of the heart and lungs to allow them to rest and recover. It is utilized in critical care for patients with severe heart or lung failure who are not responding to conventional treatments like mechanical ventilation.
Q: How should diabetes and thyroid disorders be co-managed when a patient has multiple chronic conditions?
Co-management requires a holistic approach that balances medication dosages to prevent metabolic volatility, as thyroid dysfunction can significantly impact blood glucose levels. An internal medicine specialist monitors these interactions closely to ensure that the treatment for one condition does not exacerbate the symptoms of the other.
Q: What are the signs that a patient with a chronic illness needs admission to a specialised internal medicine unit?
Admission is typically necessary if a patient experiences a sudden destabilization of symptoms, such as high-grade fever, persistent breathlessness, or altered consciousness. It is also required when a patient needs intravenous therapies or intensive monitoring that cannot be safely managed in a home or outpatient setting.
Q: What is Dr. Mayank Somani's expertise in critical care?
Dr. Mayank Somani is a highly experienced specialist with over 24 years of clinical practice, focusing on advanced life-support systems and the management of septicemia. He is particularly recognized for his proficiency in acute medicine and the care of critically ill patients requiring complex multi-organ support.
Q: What is ECMO and has Apollomedics Hospital Lucknow used it?
ECMO is an advanced machine that provides prolonged cardiac and respiratory support to patients whose heart and lungs can no longer function on their own. Apollomedics Hospital in Lucknow is a pioneer in this technology, having successfully used ECMO to save patients with severe lung damage and cardiac failure.
Q: What medical conditions does Dr. Mayank Somani treat?
Dr. Somani treats a broad spectrum of conditions including severe diabetes, thyroid disorders, hypertension, and complex infectious diseases. As a critical care expert, he also manages acute medical emergencies such as respiratory failure, multi-organ failure, and septic shock.
Q: What is the importance of acute medicine?
