Ongoing Research & Clinical Interests

• Stroke outcomes with IV thrombolysis in Indian patient populations
• Movement disorder management including DBS outcome evaluation
• Drug-resistant epilepsy and pre-surgical workup protocols

A patient presenting with acute ischaemic stroke and NIHSS score of 14 received IV thrombolysis within 60 minutes of symptom onset under Dr. Rajasekhar's emergency protocol, achieving near-complete neurological recovery with modified Rankin Scale score of 1 at 90-day follow-up.

A patient with advanced Parkinson's disease with severe motor fluctuations refractory to optimised oral therapy was evaluated and referred for deep brain stimulation surgery, achieving significant improvement in motor function and reduction in off-time at six-month post-operative assessment.

• Emergency Stroke Expertise: Patients and families note Dr. Rajasekhar's prompt, decisive approach in acute stroke settings — particularly his fast thrombolysis protocol reducing time to treatment.
• Thorough Diagnostic Workup: Patients with complex neurological symptoms commend his systematic approach to identifying underlying diagnoses through EEG, EMG/NCS, and neuroimaging.
• Compassionate Chronic Disease Management: Parkinson's and epilepsy patients highlight his supportive approach to managing long-term conditions and adjusting treatment based on response and side effects.

Patient-Centred Care

Dr. Rajasekhar Reddy K approaches neurology with a structured, evidence-based methodology — from acute stroke thrombolysis protocols to chronic epilepsy and movement disorder management. He conducts comprehensive neurological evaluations integrating clinical assessment, electrophysiology, and neuroimaging before formulating a management plan. He involves patients and families in understanding chronic neurological conditions, medication management, and lifestyle modifications, and maintains structured follow-up with functional outcome assessment.

Technology & Innovation

Dr. Rajasekhar employs EEG monitoring for epilepsy characterisation, EMG/NCS for peripheral nervous system evaluation, MRI brain and spine with diffusion-weighted imaging for stroke and demyelination assessment, and botulinum toxin injection therapy for movement and spasticity disorders. He coordinates with interventional neuroradiology teams for mechanical thrombectomy in large vessel occlusion strokes and with neurosurgical teams for DBS candidate evaluation.
