The program aims to increase awareness on Diabetes prevention & Diabetes Management among the community 

  • ‘Diabetes on Wheels’ was flagged off by Dr J. Radhakrishnan, IAS, Greater Chennai Corporation Commissioner 
  • The specially equipped vehicle will travel across Chennai and its suburbs screening people for diabetes and creating awareness for 100 days at 100 locations
  • The program was launched at Dishoom Dishoom Diabetes- an annual expo by Kauvery Hospital for free diabetes screening and education. 

Chennai, 17th December 2023:  Kauvery Hospital Main Alwarpet, unit of the Kauvery Group of Hospitals, launched the Diabetes on Wheels Program. A mobile van with a team of doctor, dietitian and a nurse will visit 100 locations in Chennai spread across 100 days to raise awareness on Diabetes and its prevention. The van was flagged off by Dr J. Radhakrishnan, IAS, Greater Chennai Corporation Commissioner at the Dishoom Dishoom Diabetes program- an annual expo by Kauvery Hospital to raise awareness on Diabetes. 

Around 600 attendees of the expo benefited from free check-ups on Vitals, Random Blood Sugar, Lipid Profile, Foot Study, Diet Counseling, Physiotherapy counseling, Eye & Dental Check Up. Beyond health screenings, attendees explored stalls featuring diabetic-friendly foods, diet supplements, footwear, and various other diabetic care products.

Dr. K Baraneedharan, Senior Consultant Diabetologist, Kauvery Hospital Alwarpet speaking on the occasion said, “Diabetes is a silent predator that thrives in the shadows of ignorance. Often-overlooked risk factors are obesity, sedentary lifestyle, genetics, age, and family history. The key to defeating diabetes lies in emphasizing its critical nature as a chronic disease. Dishoom Dishoom Diabetes is an effort in understanding and recognizing the early signs of Diabetes, and embracing a lifestyle that prevents its advances. This year the theme for World Diabetes Day was ‘Know your risk know your responsibility’, and on the same lines we have launched a community outreach program called ‘Diabetes on Wheels’. Through this program we aim to reach a wider population of Chennai, where we will inform and educate the public on diabetes- prevention and management. We will also urge the high risk individuals to get further investigations done through a subsidized price thus making it affordable and accessible for all.” 

“India has an estimated 77 million people (1 in 11 Indians) formally diagnosed with diabetes, which makes it the second most affected in the world.. One in six people (17%) in the world with diabetes is from India. With these alarming numbers, what we as healthcare providers strive to achieve is the prevention and management of Diabetes. An initiative such as this will help us reach people across different age groups and different sectors of the society. We aim to educate people on Diabetes and urge them to follow a healthy lifestyle,” says Dr Aravindan Selvaraj, Co-Founder and Executive Director, Kauvery Group of Hospitals.

The National Disaster Rescue Force team, when informed about the situation, rushed to her rescue. Thanks to their relentless efforts of manoeuvering through the heavily flooded streets in a boat, they managed to reach her in time to check for her safety. The team wasted no time in rushing her to the nearest hospital, a journey that took 45 minutes by boat.

At the couple’s request, Kauvery Hospital, Radial Road, sent an ambulance to pick up Mrs Karpagam, who was already consulting Dr Thendral, Clinical Lead and Senior Consultant, at Maa Kauvery. With prior knowledge of the patient’s history, it was easy for the team to provide her quick medical assistance.

Mrs Karpagam gave birth to a baby girl shortly afterwards, and the hospital is happy to announce that both the mother and the baby are hale and healthy. Thanks to the tireless efforts of the NDRF team, volunteers as well as the doctors, nurses, paramedics and support staff at the hospital, the lives of the mother and the baby were saved just in time.

“The dedication displayed by the NDRF rescue team and volunteers amidst the devastating cyclone is nothing short of heroic,” said Mr Kannan, the proud father of the baby girl, who is relieved and glad that everything worked out well. “We are indebted to everyone who ensured our safe passage to the hospital and the joyful news delivered to us after the excruciating hours of anxiety and uncertainty.”

Mrs Karpagam echoed her husband’s sentiments, saying, “I am deeply thankful to the brave people who did everything they could to ensure my safe delivery. We are also grateful to Dr Thendral and the staff at the hospital for the timely support and care they offered me and my precious baby.”

This uplifting story of rescue and good news in the middle of the fury of Cyclone Michuang serves as a reminder of the power of compassion and determination to overcome challenges.

This noteworthy health initiative and a first of its kind camp on sexual wellness in Chennai, designed to prioritize men’s well-being, at the AINU’s hospital premises in Nungambakkam, Chennai. The free medical camp witnessed a strong response and a significant turnout of more than 40 patients, ranging from their early 20s to late 80s, benefiting from the comprehensive quality screenings and consultations offered.
Following International Men’s Day (19th November), Dr. Sanjay Prakash, Consultant Urologist, and Microsurgical Andrologist, AINU Chennai emphasized the critical need for prioritizing men’s sexual health. “We conducted a series of tests that contribute to a thorough diagnosis and expert-based examination, including lab assessments monitoring total testosterone, random blood sugar, lipid profile, endothelial scan and an andrology consultation – all provided completely free to the public. I would like to emphasize that we need to focus on shedding our inhibitions on sexual practices. Breaking the taboo associated with this topic and adopting right sexual practices is crucial. Men’s health and sexual wellness are often much neglected and the negligence could severely impact both their personal and professional life. This camp not only focussed on sexual wellness, but also served as a screening for cardiovascular health” commented Dr. Sanjay Prakash.

Age No Bar – Giant Brain Tumour Successfully Removed in Octogenarian at KauveryHospital, Radial Road


Chennai, India (25 November 2023) Mrs KS, aged 81 years, has been living with her daughter
in Boston, United States, for 15 years. In the past three months, she experienced increased
difficulty in walking and cognitive functioning. This also led to her being prone to falls. She
had a history of bilateral knee replacement but was otherwise leading a normal life.
The doctors she consulted in the US noticed that apart from the aforesaid imbalance, Mrs KS
also had reduced hearing in her right ear and poor coordination while using her right hand.
On further investigation, they found that she had a large brain tumour arising from her
hearing nerve and had recommended an immediate surgery. Mrs KS and her family sought
medical advice from different hospitals in the US and India and finally decided to get treated
by Dr Krish Sridhar at Kauvery Hospital, Radial Road, Chennai, following a series of video
consultations with him.
Dr Krish Sridhar, Group Mentor and Director, Institute of Brain and Spine, said, “We had to
remove a giant vestibular schwannoma, a surgery that took nearly 10 hours. The surgical
removal of vestibular schwannoma is always particularly tricky, especially when it is a large
tumour (more than 4.5 cm in diameter) as in the case with Mrs KS. We performed the surgery
using a high-end operating microscope and constant neuro monitoring, ensuring that the
critical nerves responsible for swallowing, speech and those associated with the face are not
affected when we remove the tumor.”
Following the successful surgery, she was able to walk in two days and got discharged on the
7th day from the hospital. Mrs KS had continued her physiotherapy sessions as advised and
returned to the US, hale and fit.
“Many people are scared of surgery when they or their family member is above the age of 70.
However, with advancements in anaesthesia, superior operating room technology and
continuous monitoring, risks have remarkably reduced. Surgery – even for critical brain
tumours – can be successfully performed at any age, provided the patient is medically fit,”
says Dr Sridhar.
The team at Kauvery Institute of Brain and Spine is happy to have successfully removed the
brain tumour, allowing Mrs KS to get back to her previous level of health and wishes her good
health and an active life ahead.
Kauvery Hospital, Radial Road, is a leading healthcare institution offering advanced
treatments and surgical interventions in neurology, cardiology, gastroenterology, women and
child wellness, orthopaedics, joint reconstruction, urology, nephrology and other specialities.

Unlocking Potential: The Phenomenon of Catch-Up Growth

Chennai-21.11.2023-Childhood is a time of rapid growth and development, but at times,
children may experience delays in their growth for various reasons. Parents often grapple with
feelings of uncertainties, wondering why their child isn’t growing as expected and that can
sometimes be overwhelming.
Stunted growth occurs due to either inadequate nutrient intake, which can lead to growth
impairment, chronic illnesses, or environmental factors 1 . Today, across the world, there are
approximately 149 million stunted children below the age of five. In fact, a report by the World
Health Organization shows that India accounts for nearly one-third of the global childhood
stunting burden with 40.6 million children stunted under the age of five.
Let’s deep dive into what catch-up growth is, its causes, and how parents can support their
child’s catch-up growth journey.
What Is Catch-Up Growth?
Malnutrition stands as a primary cause for stunted growth in children. Children often
experience growth spurt upon the restoration of adequate nutrition known as spontaneous
catch-up (CU) growth. This helps kids regain their initial growth trajectory. 2 Children who
experience faltering development often need extra calories, protein, and micronutrients. These
nutrients serve a dual purpose, it not only replenishes what was lost during periods of
inadequate intake but also helps to support further growth. 3
Many children are consuming nutritious foods; however, it’s necessary to address the challenges
of efficient nutrition. Minerals, such as calcium, iron, and zinc, are crucial for a child’s growth
and development. Additionally, encouraging active engagement in physical activities is a key
factor in nurturing children’s overall well-being.
How to Promote Growth through Nutritional Intervention
While providing proper nutrition is crucial to your child’s healthy growth and development at all
stages, nutritional intervention is also essential from an early age. There is a need to understand
and address undernutrition, which can result from insufficient dietary intake, suboptimal
nutrient absorption, or utilization of inefficient nutrients. Focusing on a child’s life at an earlier
stage will mitigate the serious consequences it can have on their growth potential, ensuring they
reach their full developmental capacity.
Evaluating childhood nutrition involves more than just ensuring your child consumes his/her
vegetables; it can be a multifaceted process. The key outcome of good nutrition is crucial not
only for achieving optimal height but also for supporting cognitive development and bolstering
immune function. Approaching a healthcare physician should be considered when treating kids
who are falling behind on growth.
Encouraging Healthy and Holistic growth in Children: Children are often more
physically active than adults, therefore they tend to be hungrier. Make sure they eat a well-

balanced diet with a variety of healthy foods and nutrients. Here are a few ways how you can
ensure your child’s development with these healthy habits:

  1. Measure and monitor to help your child grow: Begin by regularly monitoring
    your child’s growth, particularly for children aged 2 to 6 years. Dr Bhaskar Raju,
    DCH, MD, DM, HOD Dept of Pediatric Gastroenterologist, Institute of Child
    Health adds, “It is advisable to measure them every three months, and parents can
    opt to use tools such as a growth diary or tracker. Accurate measurement is crucial for
    comprehending and tracking a child’s growth.” Moreover, it can aid in the early
    detection of growth deficiencies, enabling parents to take prompt action and address the
    underlying causes
  2. Eat right: To support holistic growth, provide a balanced diet that includes cereals,
    pulses, milk, meat, fruits, and vegetables daily. This ensures your child receives the
    necessary protein, vitamins, and minerals for healthy bone development. For parents of
    fussy eaters, consider using oral nutrition supplements for a well-rounded diet. Engage
    your children in shopping, meal planning, and cooking to increase their interest in eating
    what they’ve helped prepare. Make meals more appealing by using cookie cutters to
    create fun shapes with fruits and vegetables like apples and cucumbers, or serve a
    colorful variety of foods for breakfast and dinner
  3. Exercise: Establish a balanced play regimen for children to limit screen time. On
    holidays, you can motivate kids to embrace a ‘gadget-free’ day and encourage them to
    spend time with the entire family. Make sure children engage in a minimum of 3 hours of
    physical activity daily, which can include activities like swimming, running, skipping,
    walking, or dancing. Physical activity plays a crucial role in enhancing bone health, and
    promoting overall physical well-being
    To promote comprehensive development, a well-rounded diet can enhance the absorption of
    vital nutrients. If your child doesn’t eat enough calories and nutrients, nutrition supplements
    can help fill some of the gaps. Supplements act as both gap-covers as well as catalysts,
    enhancing the body’s capability to absorb essential vitamins and minerals from the foods your
    child consumes. It’s like turning up the volume on nutrient absorption, so their body can make
    the most of every single bite.
