Vascular Injury Treatment In Vadodara
Why it’s dangerous?
Injuries to blood vessels can abruptly halt blood circulation in the limbs, such as the legs or hands, resulting in cell death in that area. Dr. Kushan Nanavati emphasizes the critical nature of timely intervention in these cases.
Without an adequate blood supply, any part of the body can only survive for 4 to 6 hours. Therefore, a delay in vascular repair can lead to severe consequences, including the loss of a limb or, in extreme cases, loss of life.
What are the symptoms / clinical presentation?
