Indus Knee Implant has completed its one year of surgical usage. 153 surgeries have till date been performed using this implant and many more are in line.
Mrs. Mattikop from Kolhapur a 74 year old lady was the first patient to be operated using Indus on August 20, 2005. This lady had a history of nearly 25 years of multiple joint pains, unable to walk and was completely bed ridden. Indus has given her mobility and more importantly the confidence to live a good quality of life. It was sheer hard work and patience which has harvested highly rewarding dividends not only to Dr Sancheti but more for his patients.
 
Determining our attention on the cost factor against quality - Dr Sancheti guarantees that he has not compromised on quality as all the ingredients used to manufacture the Indus are same compared to any available knee implant in the market, having superior functions suiting to Indian lifestyles. The computer-aided design has undergone arduous stability and endurance tests before being put to use. As per the computer generated data the durability of the Indus implant is expected to about 25 years as against 15 years available in the other Implants.
 
To celebrate the 1st Anniversary of Indus Implant Dr K H Sancheti had organized a Free Check Up which was completely sponsored right from travel expenses to X Rays and Lab tests for all the Indus operated patients on August 20, 2006. A ceremonial lunch was also organized during which a number of patients had food sitting cross legged. It was indeed a very satisfying moment for everyone right from the patient to his relative and to Dr Sancheti.
 
Dr N S Laud, senior orthopaedic surgeon from Mumbai has been encouraging and guiding the Indus project and he also has conducted Indus trials and is participating in its clinical studies.
The entire Indus Team comprising of Dr K H Sancheti, Dr Parag Sancheti, Dr Surendra Patil, engineer Mr Amar Rajadnay who assisted Dr Sancheti in designing the implant using Autocad, Ms Nalini Kumar, Sister Nirmala who assist Dr Sancheti in the OT, Mr Madhukar Gokhale of Manman Surgicals, Mr Parkar & Mr Sonawane have put in a huge effort to make Indus what it is today.
 
After one year of its surgical usage and scrutinizing the results, Indus has proven the following
  • Highly Cost Effective
  • Suiting to Indian Lifestyles
  • Specially designed to aid increased Range of motion
  • Greater strength
  • Minimal removal of bone.
Dr Sancheti started his work on Indus Implant in the year 2000 which can be said as the 0th year meaning started from zero and today in 6 years time Indus has ascended unimaginable numbers in terms of benefits to its patients.
