TO ESTABLISH SPECIAL CLINICS:
i). Congenital Deformity Clinic:
A lot of patients with congenital deformity are coming to the Institute from various parts of Orissa including Tribal District of Koraput, Bolangir and Kalahandi (KBK) and other neighboring states like WB, Bihar, MP, UP, Chhatisgarh, Andhra Pradesh etc. The deformity like CTEV, AGMC, Syndactaly, Genu valgum and Genu varum etc. are referred to this Institute from various parts of the Country. The modality of treatment includes casting to bracing to surgical intervention including Illizarov method.
Therefore, it is proposed to start a separate Congenital Deformity Clinic to cater to the needs of these patients.

ii). Geriatric Clinic:
With the improvement in quality of life and medical facilities the mortality and morbidity rate has reduced and the life span of human beings has increased. There is increasing incidence of old age musculoskeletal problem such as Osteoarthitis, Osteoporosis Fracture, Periarthritis, Spondylosis etc. and impaired functional ability. It requires medical, surgical, therapy, psychological and recreational activities to keep them fit both mentally as well as physically.
                  Therefore, it is proposed to start a Geriatric Clinic also at SVNIRTAR.
iii) Ankle and Foot Clinic:
With increase incidence of road traffic accident and congenital deformities, patients with foot and ankle deformities forming a major part in outpatient department daily. Foot and ankle being most vulnerable part for injury happen to be an important cause of locomotor disability which requires special attention. Hence it is proposed to start an Ankle and Foot Clinic twice in a week with existing Rehabilitation and Orthopaedic Specialists.
iv).Arthritis Clinic : Different types of arthritis such as Rheumatoid arthritis, Osteoarthritis, Periarthritis , Spondylolysis etc. is not only confined to old age people but also a large no. of young people are suffered by this disease. It requires medical, surgical, therapy activities to keep the patient fit to resume their normal activities.

v). Amputee Clinic : A large no of amputee patients are reported to this Institute for fitment of  their artificial limbs. Therefore it is proposed to start a special amputee clinic to give focus to this type of patients.

vi). Scoliosis Cinic : A large no of  Spinal deformed patients are reported to this Institute for therapy & bracing . Therefore it is proposed a special Scoliosis  clinic  to be conducted to give focus to this type of patients.

      Proposed New Courses
          i).       Pediatric Orthopaedics: 1 yr. (Two seats), MS/DNBOrtho. (Fellowship):
Lots of pediatric patients’ i.e. CTEV, Congenital Pseudoarthrosis Tibia, Cong. absence of limbs, C.P., Spinal Bifida are coming to the Institute. A general Orthopedic Surgeon has little exposure to manage these patients effectively. In view of above, a group of specialist should be trained and developed who can deal with such patients to rehabilitate them. Therefore it is proposed to start a course in the Institute for which eminent Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeons of India level will be invited as guest faculty
   ii).      Rehabilitation Surgery: 1 year Fellowship (Two seats) PMR, Post
              MS/MD/DNB PMR:
There are lots of cases of neurological deficiency conditions like Hansen’s disease, PPRP, C.P., CPT, Spina Bifida, Spinal Cord Injury, Neurological Condition and Paraplegic with bedsores who are increasingly requiring surgical interventions for their rehabilitation. This is a very challenging area where special training is required, in other wards it will be difficult to deal with such patients unless they are trained especially in Rehabilitation.
iii).       Postgraduate Diploma in Geriatric Rehabilitation:2 yrs (2 seats) After MBBS:
It will be in collaboration with SCB Medical College, Cuttack, under Utkal University. With the increasing life span, Geriatric patients are increasing in the society day-by-day. They require special treatment like pediatric patients. But all the doctors are not well trained to handle their needs effectively. Therefore it is suggested to start the course in collaboration with SCB Medical College, Cuttack, under Utkal.                                    
        iv).           Rehabilitation Technician/Nursing: 1 yr (04 seats): After +2   Sciences:
Rehabilitation is a special area where a large number of paramedical are required to cater the patients. They are important component of rehabilitation team. They should have basic exposure on rehabilitation on early detection of disability, positioning in Bed for paralytic patients and bed sore dressing, knowledge on aids and appliances and knowledge of therapy maneuvers at home situations.
