Our treatments in Cardiology

Thoracic surgery – repairing a heart valve, lung tumour, or chest aneurysm.
Minimally invasive cardiac valve surgery repairs a stenotic aortic valve (aortic valve stenosis).Surgeons put a catheter into the leg or chest and route it to the heart.
Aneurysm surgery treats aortic aneurysms. A surgeon replaces your aorta’s damaged segment with a synthetic fabric tube.
Vascular surgery for heart and blood flow issues.
Coronary artery bypass surgery treats heart problems. It improves heart blood flow and oxygenation by bypassing major artery blockages.
Angioplasty, also known as percutaneous transluminal angioplasty, is a catheter-based endovascular treatment for arterial atherosclerosis. It involves blood vessel surgery, usually on a coronary artery.
Non-surgical valve replacements A catheterreplaces the patient’s aortic valve through the artery.
Cardioversion uses quick, low-energy shocks to normalise heart rhythm.
Pacemakers are small devices inserted in the chest to regulate heartbeat.
X-ray angiography examines blood vessels.

Ways to keep Healthy Heart

FAQs

What are the signs of a heart attack?

Most of the time, the first sign of a heart attack is passing out or losing consciousness, along with a sudden drop-in heart rate. Some people may have had chest pain, nausea, dizziness, or sickness before the event. The best thing to do is to go to a doctor.

What makes heart problems happen?

There are many things that put you at risk for heart problems. Heart disease is more likely in people who are overweight, have a lot of stress and high blood pressure, have health problems like Type 2 diabetes, have high cholesterol, smoke, or drink a lot. We recommend that healthy adults over 30 get a physical and talk to a doctor once a year.

What does a stress test do?

Stress tests can find blocked coronary arteries. Under electrocardiographic monitoring, the amount of work is slowly increased. The level of the exam is based on the heart rate. For stress testing, echocardiography or nuclear heart muscle scanning are often used. These strategies improve diagnosis. Coronary artery disease is often checked for in people who have symptoms or a lot of risk factors.

Why do strokes happen?

In a stroke, brain tissue dies because of bleeding or a lack of blood. Most adult strokes happen when the blood flow stops. Because the blood vessels aren’t working right, tiny pieces of debris from the neck arteries, the big aorta in the chest, or the heart could get stuck in the brain or flow there, causing a stroke. This could be clumps of blood or cholesterol. Most of the time, uncontrolled high blood pressure leads to a stroke.
