Coronary Angiography
Coronary angiography is a diagnostic procedure used to visualize the coronary arteries and assess blood flow to the heart. It helps in identifying blockages or narrowing in the arteries, aiding in the diagnosis of coronary artery disease. This procedure plays a crucial role in guiding treatment decisions for patients with heart conditions, ensuring timely and appropriate intervention to prevent complications such as heart attacks or heart failure.
AICD Transplantation
AICD transplantation, or Automatic Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator transplantation, is a life-saving procedure performed to implant a device that monitors and regulates the heart's rhythm. This intervention is typically recommended for individuals at high risk of sudden cardiac arrest due to conditions such as ventricular arrhythmias. By delivering electrical shocks or pacing the heart as needed, the AICD helps restore normal heart rhythm and prevents life-threatening arrhythmias, significantly improving patient outcomes and quality of life.
Pacemaker Implantation
Pacemaker implantation is a common procedure performed to treat certain heart rhythm disorders, such as bradycardia (slow heart rate). During this procedure, a small electronic device called a pacemaker is implanted under the skin near the collarbone and connected to the heart with one or more leads. The pacemaker continuously monitors the heart's rhythm and delivers electrical impulses when necessary to regulate the heartbeat. This helps ensure that the heart beats at a normal rate, improving symptoms and overall heart function for patients with rhythm disorders.
Cardiac Catheterization
Cardiac catheterization is a diagnostic procedure used to evaluate and diagnose various heart conditions. During this procedure, a thin, flexible tube called a catheter is inserted into a blood vessel, usually in the groin or arm, and threaded up to the heart. Once in place, the catheter allows for the injection of contrast dye, which helps visualize the coronary arteries, heart chambers, and blood flow. Cardiac catheterization provides essential information about the presence and severity of blockages, valve abnormalities, and other heart problems, guiding treatment decisions and interventions such as angioplasty or stent placement when necessary.
Coronary Angioplasty
Coronary angioplasty, also known as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), is a common medical procedure used to open blocked or narrowed coronary arteries. During angioplasty, a thin, flexible tube called a catheter with a deflated balloon on its tip is threaded through a blood vessel to the site of the blockage in the coronary artery. Once at the site, the balloon is inflated to compress the plaque against the artery walls, widening the artery and improving blood flow to the heart muscle. In some cases, a stent—a small mesh tube—may be inserted into the artery to help keep it open.
Rotablation
Rotablation is a specialized procedure in cardiology used to treat narrowed arteries in the heart caused by plaque buildup. During the procedure, a guide wire is inserted into the affected artery, followed by a tiny balloon. The balloon is inflated to compress the plaque against the artery walls, restoring blood flow. This technique helps improve circulation in the narrowed artery and can alleviate symptoms associated with restricted blood flow to the heart. Rotablation is a minimally invasive procedure that can be performed by skilled cardiologists to effectively treat coronary artery disease.
