How is hernia surgery made safe during omicron?
As the coronavirus and all its variants can be contracted through air, Pristyn Care and all other healthcare providers across India have taken all the necessary safety measures against the coronavirus, including the omicron variant. The following rules are strictly followed for protection against the virus and its variants.
- Every person who enters the hospital premises has to go through thermal screening and their hands are also sanitized at the entry gate.
- No one is allowed to enter the hospital or clinic without masks. Hospitals/clinics should provide every person with a mask during entry.
- Only one person is allowed as the attendant to the patient and can stay with him/her during the treatment.
- Patients are encouraged to make an appointment with the doctor prior to their arrival so that the clinic or hospital doesn’t get crowded.
- The medical and non-medical staff wear the proper personal protective equipment (PPE) kit.
- The entire medical facility, every room, and every piece of equipment are sanitized and disinfected multiple times throughout the day.
- Social distancing rules are also strictly followed. The seating arrangement is done accordingly in the waiting areas.
Hernia surgery, both open and laparoscopic surgery, is a sophisticated procedure. Following all safety protocols are necessary to ensure that the treatment was successful and the coronavirus or omicron variant doesn’t affect the results or recovery. Therefore, Pristyn Care is the ideal destination to undergo hernia surgery during omicron safely and successfully.

Is a COVID test required before hernia surgery at Pristyn Care?
Yes. Whether you are undergoing open or laparoscopic hernia surgery, it is mandatory to take a COVID test beforehand. While you are admitted to the hospital, the RTPCR test will be performed by a medical professional to detect if there is any coronavirus antigen present in your body.
The doctor only proceeds with the treatment when the test result comes negative and it is safe for the patient to undergo a surgical procedure. If the result is positive, then the patient will receive treatment for the virus first and then undergo surgery after complete recovery.
Pristyn Care also has a COVID-19 treatment center where people can get admission and receive proprietary care at a reasonable cost.
