00:00In the past, cancer-related treatments such as surgical oncology, medical oncology, radiation
00:09oncology, and paediatric oncology were not easily available.
00:18Now, the surgical oncology department is able to treat cancer through medical oncology.
00:27We are planning to start radiation oncology in the next few days.
00:43We are planning to start these two departments.
00:48So, in the coming days, cancer can be treated through surgical oncology or through injection chemotherapy.
00:58These two options are available in Opec hospital.
01:04In the coming days, patients do not have to go to big cities for chemotherapy once in 15 days or once in 3 weeks.
01:15We are providing such medicines in Opec hospital.
01:21We have started the day care center with the help of district officials, district health and family welfare officials, and our RIMS director.
01:34We request everyone to take advantage of this opportunity.
01:39How many relatives do you have and how much do you spend?
01:42We do not need many relatives in this department.
01:46We can work with as many relatives as we have.
01:49We are operating in the surgical oncology department.
01:54So, we do not need many staff.
01:59But for the day care center, we need two extra nursing staff and a doctor.
02:08We have appointed a doctor as a medical oncologist.
02:113-4 people come and go from Gulbarg every week.
02:14They give their medicines.
02:16So, we have started this program with a doctor and two nurses.
02:20As per my statistics, I have performed 300-400 operations free of cost in the last 4-5 years.
02:33In the coming days, we are referring 600-800 patients for injection.
02:44I have seen 1,000-1,500 patients a year.
02:49We have operated on 400-500 patients.
02:52We are referring them for chemotherapy and radiation.
02:55We can keep another 300-400 patients here for chemotherapy.
03:02In the coming days, we can treat people who need radiation.
03:06Once they are diagnosed with cancer, they can leave the district and go to other places.
03:15In our department, men have head and neck cancer.
03:18Because of the use of tobacco and tobacco, we have a lot of mouth and throat cancer.
03:24In our district, women have breast cancer.
03:27We have more breast cancer cases than any other place in the world.
03:31As per the ICMR data, we have 3,000-4,000 people diagnosed with cancer in our district.
03:41If we calculate the number of patients and reduce the death rate,
03:45we have a prevalence of 6,000-7,000 people diagnosed with cancer in our district.
03:52According to the normal reports, we have more cases of cancer in rural population than in urban population.
04:04We have more cases of cancer in women than in men.
04:06In other places, we have more cases of cancer in women than in men.
04:10Overall, 60% of the cases are in females and 40% in males.
04:1560% in rural population and 40% in urban population.
04:19According to the ABIRK scheme, we provide medicines for free.
04:28We provide free medicines from the hospital itself.
04:31We provide free medicines to the companies, CSR, Fundsalvaki, etc.
04:40We coordinate with them and provide free medicines to them.
04:48I don't have the data on the disease of breast cancer.
04:51But I have proposed a proposal to ICMR to conduct research on this topic.
05:02I have proposed a proposal to the ICMR to conduct research on the disease of breast cancer,
05:06on the village and on the area with respect to the temperature.
05:08In this way, I have discussed the details of the disease to the ICMR.
