Dr. Rajesh Kumar Sharma [MBBS, MD (Paediatrics)]

+91-8860606766 | +91-9910655125About Dr. Rajesh Kumar Sharma [MBBS, MD (Paediatrics)]
Dr. Rajesh Kumar Sharma is Paediatric Cardiac Intensivist and Currently Working as Director in the Critical Care Department at Medanta - The Medicity, Sector 38, Gurugram, India.
He is having more than 15 years of experience in the field of paediatric and cardiac critical care.
He has completed his MBBS and MD (Paediatrics), followed by paediatric cardiac intensive care training and a fellowship at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, USA.
Profile Highlights :
- Dr. Sharma served for about five years in the Indian Army Medical Corps, where he was twice recommended for the Chief of Army Staff Commendation Card and received a Commanding Officer's commendation for his dedication to duty.
- He later started a dedicated paediatric cardiac intensive care programme at Max Saket. He is credited with introducing protocol-based management of pre- and post-cardiac-surgery patients of all ages with complex cardiac anomalies, an approach that standardises care and improves outcomes after congenital heart surgery.
- He has managed many critically ill children, including the first post-cardiac-surgery ECMO case in a four-month-old infant following an arterial switch operation. ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) temporarily takes over the work of the heart and lungs while they recover, and requires highly specialised intensive care.
- His procedural expertise includes peritoneal dialysis catheter placement, cannulation and vascular line placement, and the management of infants requiring tracheostomy after cardiac surgery. He also completed training as a Visiting Fellow Observer in a paediatric cardiac intensive care unit, bringing international practices to the care of children with congenital heart disease at Medanta.
