Unit will provide novel techniques in public health
The State Institute for Brain Paul Niemeyer, in downtown Rio, starts next Monday (24/06) attending to victims of stroke (CVA). The unit of the Department of Health will be the reference state for patients with ischemic stroke. The neurosurgical service of the hospital will be in charge of the team of renowned neurosurgeon Paul Niemeyer Filho.
The new center will offer the most modern in the field of neurosurgery highly complex, using novel techniques in the public, including the ability to confirm the removal of tumors via magnetic resonance inside the operating room. There will be over 200 beds between hospitalization, ICU and stabilization. The prediction is to achieve 8 to 10 operations per day. The full project should receive around R$ 80 million in investments.
The hospital will also focus on the treatment of diseases of the central and peripheral nervous system, such as tumors and vascular disorders and degenerative diseases. There will be four operating rooms, two of which will be capable of performing navigational neuro surgeries, less invasive operation performed by computer, and physical therapy space that plays a residence for the rehabilitation of patients after stroke.
"This project is the hope that we can serve the poor better off," said Paul Niemeyer.
