Obstetrics and Gynecology (OBG) are the two surgical specialties dealing with the female reproductive organs. Obstetrics is the surgical specialty dealing with the care of a woman and her offspring during pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (the short period after birth).
- The departmental objectives are to encourage medical graduates to practice the subject of Obstetrics and Gynecology with sincerity, while adhering to ethical principles.
- The department places emphasis not just on course curriculum but also on a humaneness that can redefine the doctor-patient relationship.
- The training involves both theory and practicals. Students also learn the vital aspects of history-taking, examination, diagnosis and treatment.
- As interns, they spend 2 months in this department that involves labour room postings for a week. Interns can assist in procedures but under supervision.
- The PG residents gain experience in the field by assisting in more complex procedures like C-sections and hysterectomies.
- The postgraduate students are trained in all sub-specialties like maternal fetal medicine, Gynec-oncology, infertility and urogynecology. They undergo training in obstetric ultrasound and in laparoscopy.
- The Department of OBG at Ramaiah is one of the few centers in the state of Karnataka providing the service of PPTC (Prevention of Parent to Child Transmission) of HIV-AIDS and VCTC (Voluntary Counseling and Testing Center). The department has also been recognised as a training center.
- In PPTC & VCTC, a skill lab has been set up for the purpose of examination and laparoscopy and to train undergraduate students in handling normal deliveries.
- Near-miss and mortality meetings are a highlight of the Department of Gynecology.
- High-end infrastructure includes an ICU and a nursery. The presence of a blood bank ensures emergency cases are treated in time and lives are saved.
- The facilities also make space for infertility and laparoscopic surgeries.
