A study on brain strokes, heart attacks and road accident-related deaths reveal that stroke is one of the leading causes of death and disability in India.

With over 1.51 lac road accident-related deaths in 2019, India ranks first in the number of road accident deaths across the 199 countries and accounts for almost 11% of the accident-related deaths in the World.

The endeavour of the revamped ER is to save more lives during the Golden Hour and arrest fatalities arising from emergencies. What increases the challenges in saving these lives are that many hospital Emergency departments are not equipped to handle brain stroke and heart attacks and precious time is lost as patients are not aware of which ER to go to during such emergencies Marengo CIMS Hospital is the largest, multi super speciality, JCI and NABH accredited hospital in Ahmedabad have developed the Emergency department as a Centre of Excellence (COE) with facilities focusing on protocols to save brain stroke, heart attack and road accident victims lives.

Dr Raajiv Singhal, Founding Member, MD & CEO, Marengo Asia Healthcare said, "A good Emergency department contributes to reduced fatality rates, enhances treatment outcomes, minimises rehabilitation time, and limits treatment costs for many patients. Every reputed, super-specialty hospital should include an ER with quick response time as an indispensable part of the healthcare unit. With all the support functions in place, well-trained and dedicated clinicians quick to act, we aim to set new benchmarks in redefining ER facilities and change the face of healthcare." Dr Keyur Parikh, Chairman Marengo CIMS hospital said, "Brain strokes and heart attacks are increasingly affecting the young population in the 25 to 35 age group and claiming untimely lives. Road accidents related deaths are also on the rise. Our endeavour is to create increased awareness of recognising the symptoms of a stroke and a heart attack and help build awareness on the Golden Hour.
