Friday, 20 October 2023 | Staff Reporter | BHOPAL

World Pediatric Bone and Joint Day was celebrated today at All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Bhopal, marking a significant moment in the field of pediatric orthopedics. The event was graced by the presence of Prof. (Dr.) Ajai Singh, Executive Director of AIIMS, Bhopal, who served as the chief guest.

The highlight of the celebration was the official inauguration of X-ray services in the Orthopedics Outpatient Department (O.P.D.) and the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation (P.M.R.) / Orthopedic Operation Theater Complex, bolstering the institution's commitment to providing comprehensive care for pediatric bone and joint health.

During his address, Prof. (Dr.) Ajai Singh emphasized the critical importance of raising awareness among all stakeholders about diseases related to bone and joint health in children. With India's young population on the rise, there is an urgent need to prioritize their well-being. Prof. Singh called for a greater focus on children's lifestyles and their ability to cope with the stresses of modern life, noting that the spirit of sharing and support appears to be diminishing over time.

The newly launched facilities will significantly enhance the quality of treatment for young patients, reflecting AIIMS, Bhopal's dedication to delivering the best possible care to its community. Prof. Singh underscored the importance of collaborative efforts to serve humanity and expressed enthusiasm for the upcoming M.Ch. in Pediatrics program starting in July, vowing to leave no stone unturned in ensuring its grand success.

The event commenced with a warm welcome by Dr. Rehan ul Haq, Professor and Head of Orthopedics, who expressed gratitude towards Prof. (Dr.) Ajai Singh for his motivating presence and support. The program featured insights from medical experts, with Dr. Saurabh Sinha, Dr. Pratik Behera, and Dr. Girish Bhatt sharing their views on rickets, a condition that affects bone health in children.

The gathering included distinguished guests such as Dr. Shashank Purwar, Medical Superintendent, and Dr. Rajesh Malik, Dean Academics, along with other esteemed faculty members, resident doctors, patients, and their relatives, who collectively made the celebration a resounding success.

AIIMS, Bhopal is committed to advancing pediatric bone and joint health and is proud to be at the forefront of these critical medical advancements.
