Obstetrics can be understood as a branch of medicine that specialises in the care of women during pregnancy and childbirth and the respective diagnosis and treatment of diseases that affect female reproductive organs. Doctors who specialise in obstetrics are also known as obstetricians, who are also commonly referred to as “Ob Gyns,” and they specialise in monitoring and providing care to women throughout their pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period.
At Rhea IVF and Women’s Hospital, we have an obstetrics department that is solely dedicated to caring for women through their stages of pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. As there’s always a risk of complications during times of pregnancy and childbirth, an obgyn’s task is to be able to assist the mother effectively and resolve complications that arise during the most critical moments.
Under the guidance of our expert specialist, Dr. K. Shanmugavadivu, our obstetrics department specialises in providing timely and dedicated obstetrics services.
We are specialised in a treatment called PROGRAMMED LABOUR, to have safe normal Vaginal / natural delivery, shortening the whole of the Labour Process by a protocol customised according to the patient’s well being. We plan the delivery process well in advance after checking the health of mother and fetus and wait until the cervix is favourable and head gets aligned into the pelvic cavity. We induce labour at fixed time and augment the labour safely under CTG monitoring and guarded doses of pain inducing medicines through an Infusion Pump. We have certain protocols which shorten the delivery process and Baby is delivered safely using Painless delivery Protocols under the expert supervision of highly experienced paediatrician who is present at the delivery room to ensure safety of the newborn baby.
Rhea hospital is licensed under Government of Tamilnadu to conduct family planning surgeries and to conduct MTPs until 20 weeks of pregnancy.
At Rhea IVF and Women’s Hospital, we offer the following ultrasound services to treat conditions related to obstetrics
We are aware of the widespread stigma that exists around complications surrounding pregnancy and receiving proper and comforting prenatal care, as our society is focused on holding women accountable for complications that are beyond their control. This is why we, at Rhea IVF and Women’s Hospital, have tailored this obstetrics department to specifically reach expecting mothers during their crucial times of need. As one of our defining mottos is to improve the accessibility and affordability of women’s healthcare services, we hope to reach all sections and strata of society through effective treatments and specialised care.
