Infection Control And Stabilization
Infection control and stabilization is a critical component of inpatient and emergency medical care provided at Moolchand Hospital, one of the best private hospitals and multi super speciality hospitals in Delhi. It refers to the comprehensive clinical strategy employed to identify and manage serious infections, prevent healthcare-associated infection (HAI) transmission, and stabilize patients who are physiologically compromised by infection — including those developing sepsis or septic shock.
Effective infection management begins with rapid identification of the source and causative organism through targeted cultures (blood, urine, sputum, wound swab), imaging, and laboratory markers (CBC, CRP, procalcitonin, lactate). Source control — removing or draining the focus of infection (e.g. abscess drainage, infected catheter removal, debridement of infected wound) — is a fundamental principle of infection management.
Antimicrobial stewardship is integral to infection management at Moolchand Hospital. Prompt initiation of empirical broad-spectrum antibiotics is followed by de-escalation to targeted therapy once culture and sensitivity results are available — minimizing antibiotic overuse and reducing the emergence of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs).
For patients with sepsis or septic shock, the Surviving Sepsis Campaign bundle protocol is followed — including early fluid resuscitation, vasopressor support (noradrenaline) for refractory hypotension, early antibiotic administration within one hour of sepsis recognition, and organ support in the ICU (mechanical ventilation, renal replacement therapy as required).
Infection prevention measures within the hospital — including hand hygiene protocols, contact and droplet isolation precautions, sterile procedural techniques, surgical site infection prevention bundles, ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) prevention, and catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) prevention — are rigorously implemented at Moolchand Hospital to protect both patients and healthcare workers.
Our team of globally acclaimed super specialists has pioneered several infection control and stabilization surgeries.

Micro discectomy (laparoscopic)
Micro discectomy is a minimally invasive spinal surgical procedure using an operating microscope or endoscope to remove a herniated disc fragment compressing a spinal nerve root, providing rapid relief from sciatica, leg pain, and neurological symptoms with minimal muscle disruption and faster recovery.
Infection control and stabilization
Infection control and stabilization encompasses the medical protocols and interventions used to identify, contain, and treat serious infections while stabilizing the patient's vital parameters to prevent progression to sepsis, organ failure, and life-threatening complications.
Limb lengthening by Ilizarov Technique
Ligation of Intersphincteric Fistula Tract (LIFT) is a sphincter-preserving surgical procedure for treating trans-sphincteric anal fistulas by ligating and dividing the fistula tract in the intersphincteric plane, achieving high cure rates while protecting anal sphincter function and continence.
Multi ligament reconstruction
Multi-ligament reconstruction is a complex knee surgery to reconstruct two or more torn ligaments simultaneously following a high-energy knee dislocation or severe ligamentous injury, restoring knee stability, alignment, and function.
Patellofemoral instability surgery
Patellofemoral instability surgery corrects recurrent patellar dislocation or subluxation — where the kneecap repeatedly slips out of its groove — through ligament reconstruction, tibial tubercle transfer, or trochleoplasty, restoring kneecap alignment and preventing further instability.
Skeletal realignment and stabilization
Skeletal realignment and stabilization helps correct misaligned bones, restore stability, reduce pain, and support proper healing after fractures, deformities, or trauma.
Post-surgical
Post-surgical care at Moolchand Hospital encompasses comprehensive recovery support including pain management, wound care, physiotherapy, nutritional support, and complication prevention to ensure every surgical patient achieves a safe, smooth, and complete recovery.
