Kauvery Group Launches Dedicated GI Bleed Centres Across Tamil Nadu

Kauvery Group of Hospitals has launched dedicated GI Bleed Centres across all its hospitals in Tamil Nadu to provide timely evaluation, coordinated care, and comprehensive management of Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, a common medical emergency marked by internal bleeding within the digestive tract. These centres will also be operational in the group’s hospitals in Karnataka. With 12 units across the two states, the initiative ensures patients have access to specialised, multidisciplinary care closer to home. These centres bring together emergency physicians, gastroenterologists, intensivists, interventional radiologists, and surgeons under a coordinated care model. From arrival in the emergency department through risk assessment, ICU or ward admission, endoscopic or radiological intervention, and structured discharge planning, patients are managed along a clearly defined clinical pathway. The centres are equipped with 24/7 emergency endoscopy services and advanced therapeutic endoscopic techniques, including injection therapy, band ligation, glue therapy, and coil embolisation. Interventional radiology support for angiographic embolisation, along with surgical expertise for complex cases, is available whenever required. Speaking at the launch, Dr. P. Basumani, Director, Kauvery Institute of Digestive Sciences, said: “GI bleeding can result from ulcers, gastric erosions, or variceal bleeds linked to liver disease. Effective management depends on early assessment, stabilisation, accurate diagnosis, and timely intervention, as delays can be life-threatening. It requires a systematic, well-coordinated approach. At the Kauvery GI Bleed Centre, we have streamlined evidence-based protocols to ensure timely care at every stage. What truly makes a difference is teamwork - with multiple departments working seamlessly to deliver coordinated, patient-centred care.” Highlighting the vision behind the initiative, Dr. Aravindan Selvaraj, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Kauvery Group of Hospitals, said: “Access to timely, specialised care is critical in managing medical emergencies. With Kauvery Hospitals across Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, we are bringing advanced GI bleed management closer to the communities we serve. Our goal is to standardise protocols across all units to ensure consistent quality, safety, and patient outcomes, regardless of location. This initiative underscores our ongoing commitment to strengthening emergency and critical care services.” Connect with us Socially! :) G-Mail- pulseofindia2022@gmail.com
