A landmark paper in Periodontics from Saveetha University.


Laying down guidelines for Autologous plateletsconcentrate treatment in Periodontics-a review

Chennai:“Cochrane” refers to a global independent network of researchers, professionals, patients, and people interested in health. Cochrane contributors, from more than 120 countries, work together to produce credible, accessible health information that is free from commercial sponsorship and other conflicts of interest. The work published in Cochrane is recognized as representing an international gold standard for high quality, trusted information. Moreover, the Cochrane stands out with its published systematic reviews with an esteemed impact factor of 5.940.
The Cochrane contributors are involved in gathering and summarizing the best evidence from research to help its audience and make informed choices about treatment. The mission of Cochrane is to provide accessible, credible information to support informed decision-making for improving global health.  Cochrane evidence provides a powerful tool to enhance the healthcare knowledge and decision making.
As access to health evidence increases, so do the risks of misinterpreting complex content; meanwhile the likelihood of any one person getting a complete and balanced picture decreases. The mission of Cochrane is to provide this complex information in the form of high quality systematic reviews which are updated in a timely basis by the contributors, to support informed decision-making and evidence based interventions which would result in improved global health.
Cochrane's contributors are affiliated to the organization through Cochrane groups: healthcare subject-related review groups, thematic networks, groups concerned with the methodology of systematic reviews, and regional centres. One of such group held in INDIA is Cochrane Oral Health Group. We feel proud to be the part of this group with our contribution towards the same.
The author team lead by Dr. Saurav Panda, Professor Sheeja Varghese, Professor Malaiappa Sankari, Professor N. D. Jayakumar and Dr. Surendar Ramamoorthi from Saveetha University, India, with the collaboration of Dr. Massimo Del Fabbro from Università degli Studi di Milano and his colleagues, Dr. Valentina Ceresoli, Dr. Caterina Ceci  and Dr. Silvio Taschieri from University of Milan IRCCS Galazzi Orthopaedic Institute, contributed a high quality gold standard  systematic review on “Autologous Platelet Concentrates in treatment of Periodontal Defects”.

Saveetha College of Engineering Director Dr.Rajesh








Saveetha  Medical College and Hospital has joined as one of the few centres in India where the facility of closure of holes in the heart is available without surgery. Only two other centres do this procedure in chennai. 
The Cardiology Department in Saveetha Medical College has been actively doing interventions in both adults and children since it was established a couple of years ago. It also has special emphasis on primary angioplasty for patients with heart attack residing especially in the outskirts of Chennai. Steadily becoming popular among the people living near poonamallee, Thiruvallur and Kanchipuram. 
Chitra[name changed] 10years old girl studying  in fifth standard used to feel breathless when she used to play with her friends, she will take rest  for a short period before resuming to play every time when she becomes breathless. 
The parents become concerned with her problems and she was being treated by local Doctors near her house with injections and tablets with no major improvement in her clinical condition.
When there was no improvement in her symptoms, the child’s grandmother forced the parents to take the child to Saveetha Medical College for detailed evaluation.
The child was examined  by Senior Cardiologist Dr. A. G. Narayanaswamy  - Saveetha Medical College Hospital and was diagnosed to have a hole in the heart, which was later confirmed by Cardiac Echo, 
      The news was conveyed to the parents.The parents had heard that holes    in the heart can be closed only by open heart surgery, but Dr. A. G. Narayanaswamy impressed on them that this hole in the heart of their child can be closed with a device thus avoiding open heart surgery. 
After getting consent from parents, the child underwent successful closure of the hole in the heart with the device on 20th July 2015 by the cardiac team of senior consultant cardiologist Dr. A. G. Narayanaswamy and Dr. Vinoth Kumar,Asst.Prof Dept of Cardiology, Saveetha Medical College, The whole procedure was done through a small injection in the thigh and the child was discharged after 24 hours.
Most individuals with untreated hole in the heart do not have significant symptoms through early Childhood. Symptoms are typically decreased exercise tolerance, tiredness, feeling of excessive beating of heart and giddiness.
Complications of not treating this hole in the heart include, heart failure, irregular beating of the heart and death. 
By  closing the holes in the heart with devices, the patient is spared of the problems of open heart surgery and the unsightly appearance of postoperative scar especially in girl patients.
This procedure costs above 12 lakh rupees in other centres, She underwent the procedure completely free of cost through Chief minister's Comprehensive health insurance scheme. 

Moreover the child never experienced any pain or discomfort throughout the procedure and after. She was happily playing with other children's in the ward.
