bahrainthismonth.com | DECEMBER 2025 NATIONAL DAY 29 A patient at KHAMH presented with an abnormality in cardiac health. Once the doctors identified a rare genetic condition, the KHAMH team wanted to provide the family with as much clarity and reassurance as possible and turned to Mayo Clinic, through its e-consult option. eConsult is one of the valuable benefits of their MCCN collaboration which connects KHAMH doctors with Mayo Clinic experts. What happened next felt almost meant to be. The Mayo physician who responded wasn’t just knowledgeable; he was, in fact, the very researcher who had originally identified this one rare genetic variant in his own laboratory. With his unique insight, he was able to answer all of KHAMH’s doctors’ questions and provide a level of clarity and reassurance. The KHAMH team then confidently continued with the patient’s treatment plan, knowing they were offering care supported by the highest level of expertise. “Our physicians, surgeons and other clinical services professionals have been able to gain and share knowledge, with colleagues and patients, that is up to date,” he said. “In fact, on the ‘Ask Mayo Expert’ web-based knowledge base, we have recorded approximately 5,000 unique sessions, covering more than 5,500 unique medical topics, reflecting the growing engagement of our clinicians with evidencebased global knowledge”. “We have also consulted experts from Mayo Clinic in paediatric diabetes, neurorehabilitation, and values-based care, enhancing the quality of patient management and clinical decision- “Our physicians, surgeons and other clinical services professionals have been able to gain and share knowledge, with colleagues and patients, that is up to date,” - Dr. Deepak Abraham making at King Hamad American Mission Hospital.
