Lead CME Keynote Address at Vels Medical College
At Vels Medical College & Hospital—part of the prestigious Vels University group—Dr. Raghul M was invited as the Lead CME Keynote Speaker for their Annual Super-Specialty Medical Update. Delivering an intensive multimedia lecture on "High-Stakes Pediatric Surgical Emergencies: From Neonatal Bilious Vomiting to the Acute Scrotum," Dr. Raghul M provided medical postgraduates, internists, and faculties with a crystal-clear diagnostic framework to prevent delays in conditions where every hour dictates tissue survival.
Cardinal Rules of Neonatal Emergency Surgery
Dr. Raghul M underscored the cardinal rule of neonatal medicine: "Bilious (green) vomiting in a newborn is an acute surgical emergency until proven otherwise." He walked delegates through emergency evaluation of midgut volvulus, where immediate Ladd's procedure prevents total bowel gangrene. Turning to pediatric urology, he outlined the rapid-assessment protocol for acute testicular torsion, demonstrating that surgical detorsion within 6 hours achieves a 95% testicular salvage rate.
