GMC&AH Rajouri equipped with vital TMT, EEG services

RAJOURI : In yet another move to substantially improve the health infrastructure in the district, the Government Medical College and Associated Hospital Rajouri catering to the patient care with the feeding area of twin districts of Rajouri and Poonch has been equipped with TMT and EEG facilities.

TMT is the Treadmill Test and it helps in the measurement of the blood circulation (blood pressure) when a patient walks/runs on a treadmill, while an EEG is a test that detects abnormalities in brain waves or the electrical activity of the brain.

The people of twin districts would be highly benefited from the new health facilities as they have to visit Jammu for these tests. It is also pertinent to mention here that a new CT Scan machine with 128 slices will start functioning in the Hospital from next week.

The services have been started with the efforts made by the Principal GMC, Dr Brij Mohan Gupta under the guidance of Additional Chief Secretary Health and Medical Education Department, Atal Dullo.
