RUHS hosp performs first angioplasty procedure, expands advanced cardiac services
Jaipur: RUHS Hospital conducted its first angioplasty procedure Saturday on a 67-year-old patient from Peepalu, Tonk district. The patient, who was suffering from cardiac issues, underwent an angiography test that revealed blockages, leading to the decision of angioplasty.
The procedure was successfully completed. The patient is showing positive recovery signs, and the treatment was provided without cost under the Mukhyamantri Ayushman Arogya (MAA) Scheme, said a hospital official.
Medical education secretary Ambrish Kumar said RUHS Hospital began offering angiography and angioplasty services from June 2, with two angiographies performed initially.
Kumar explained that RUHS Hospital is expanding its medical services to decrease the patient load at Sawai Man Singh (SMS) Hospital while providing advanced medical facilities to state residents. The introduction of angiography and angioplasty services means cardiac patients can now receive treatment at RUHS Hospital instead of travelling all the way to SMS Hospital. This development offers an additional treatment centre for cardiac patients across the state and helps reduce the patient load at SMS Hospital.
The hospital has also commenced plastic surgery services.

Days After Air India Mishap, 7 Dead In Kedarnath Helicopter Crash In Uttarakhand
At Least 5 Students Dead as Air India Flight Crashes Into BJ Medical College Hostel in Ahmedabad At least Five medical students, including four undergraduates and a postgraduate doctor, have died after an Air India Dreamliner crashed into the BJ Medical College hostel just minutes after takeoff. The Boeing 787-8, operating as Flight AI171 to London, carried 242 people when it failed to gain altitude and slammed into the student campus. Witnesses say 30–50 students and staff were inside the hostel dining area during lunch. Disturbing visuals show food plates abandoned and a mangled part of the aircraft embedded in the hostel wall. Nearly 40 doctors have also been injured — one critically. Captain Sumeet Sabharwal had issued a Mayday call seconds before the crash. This is one of the most catastrophic aviation disasters in Indian history, not just for passengers, but also for those on the ground. Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, and the medical community shaken by this terrible event.#airindiacrash #bjmedicaltragedy #ai171disaster #planecrashinhostel #boeing787crash #gujaratnews #aviationtragedy #ahmedabadcrash #studentcasualties #breakingnews #toi #toibharat #bharat #breakingnews #indianews 144.2K views | 2 days ago
