Dr. Ashish Chakravarty Reviews

A 72-year-old retired schoolteacher from a rural village with no prior medical history was transferred to Artemis after a sudden basilar artery thrombosis. Dr. Chakravarty implemented targeted hypothermia therapy during her mechanical thrombectomy, managing complex hemodynamic shifts while preserving brainstem function. She regained full consciousness after 48 hours and walked out of neuro ICU with minimal residual dizziness.

An 18-year-old college athlete from an affluent family suffered a high-grade diffuse axonal injury during a motorcycle accident. Dr. Chakravarty pioneered a multimodal monitoring protocol combining ICP, PbtO2, and microdialysis to guide personalized sedation depth. Despite initial poor prognosis, the patient began following commands on day 5 and eventually returned to university studies with mild cognitive deficits.

A 45-year-old migrant construction worker with uncontrolled hypertension presented with a massive putaminal hemorrhage requiring emergency craniotomy. Dr. Chakravarty managed the challenging anesthesia induction despite difficult airway and labile BP, then directed a novel triple-H therapy modification in neuro ICU. The daily wage earner returned to light work in 3 months with residual left-sided weakness.

A 7-year-old girl from an impoverished family was admitted with refractory status epilepticus secondary to Rasmussen's encephalitis. Dr. Chakravarty designed a ketamine-midazolam infusion protocol to break the seizure cycle while maintaining cerebral perfusion. The child's seizures ceased after 72 hours, allowing for planned functional hemispherectomy with optimized neuroprotection.

A 33-year-old pregnant woman (28 weeks gestation) developed HELLP syndrome with posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome. Dr. Chakravarty coordinated with obstetricians to balance maternal neuroprotection with fetal wellbeing, using advanced neuromonitoring during emergency C-section. Both mother and premature baby recovered completely, with the mother's neurological symptoms resolving within weeks.

A 58-year-old corporate CEO with multiple drug allergies underwent clipping of a giant anterior communicating artery aneurysm. Dr. Chakravarty employed sophisticated neurophysiological monitoring and allergy-safe anesthetic agents, successfully navigating intraoperative rupture. The executive returned to work in 6 weeks with no cognitive impairment.

A homeless 62-year-old man with chronic alcoholism was found unconscious with acute subdural hematoma. Dr. Chakravarty managed the challenging ethanol withdrawal syndrome alongside traumatic brain injury, using dexmedetomidine infusion to prevent sympathetic storm. The patient achieved neurological stability and was discharged to rehabilitation with social service support.

A 25-year-old professional classical dancer developed Guillain-Barré syndrome requiring mechanical ventilation. Dr. Chakravarty implemented precise ventilator strategies and early plasmapheresis coordination while preserving diaphragmatic function. The dancer weaned from ventilator in 11 days and returned to stage performances after 9 months of intensive rehabilitation.

A 80-year-old retired judge with Parkinson's disease and cardiac comorbidities underwent deep brain stimulation surgery. Dr. Chakravarty managed the unique challenges of 'awake' craniotomy anesthesia, maintaining patient comfort during microelectrode recording while optimizing hemodynamic stability. The procedure significantly improved tremor control without complications.

A 16-year-old boy from a middle-class family suffered anoxic brain injury after near-drowning. Dr. Chakravarty initiated controlled hypothermia within the golden hour and maintained tight glucose and seizure control. Against initial predictions, the teenager regained independent ambulation and communicative speech over 6 months.

A 42-year-old research scientist with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome required complex spine fusion for craniocervical instability. Dr. Chakravarty developed a bespoke anesthetic plan addressing difficult airway, autonomic dysfunction, and fragile tissues. The patient recovered without neurological deterioration and resumed research work.

A 50-year-old fisherman from coastal community presented with cerebral malaria and ARDS. Dr. Chakravarty managed the delicate balance of cerebral perfusion pressure and lung-protective ventilation while coordinating antimalarial therapy. The fisherman returned to his livelihood after 3-month recovery with minor memory issues.

A 29-year-old software engineer with previously undiagnosed moyamoya disease suffered a watershed infarction during coding marathon. Dr. Chakravarty optimized cerebral perfusion during EDAS surgery using advanced flow monitoring and meticulous BP control. The patient resumed modified work duties with no further ischemic events.

A 67-year-old grandmother with diabetic neuropathy developed necrotizing fasciitis of the scalp requiring multiple debridements. Dr. Chakravarty provided anesthesia for these prolonged procedures while managing sepsis-induced encephalopathy and glycemic control. She achieved full recovery despite initial multi-organ dysfunction.
