Department of Cardiology

The Department of Cardiology is a center of excellence dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and management of heart and vascular conditions. With state-of-the-art technology and a team of expert cardiologists, we provide comprehensive care for patients of all ages, from neonates to adults, ensuring optimal cardiac health and improved quality of life.

Non-Invasive Cardiology

Our Non-Invasive Cardiology Services focus on diagnosing heart conditions using advanced, non-invasive techniques.

Key Services Include:

• Echocardiography (ECHO): High-resolution imaging to evaluate heart structure and function.
• Treadmill Test (TMT): Stress testing to assess cardiac performance under physical exertion.
• Holter Monitoring: Continuous 24-hour ECG monitoring to detect arrhythmias.
• Head-Up Tilt Test (HUTT): Diagnosis of syncope and autonomic disorders.

Transcatheter Valve Replacement

We specialize in minimally invasive Transcatheter Valve Replacement for patients with severe valve diseases.

Key Features:

• Advanced procedures, including Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR).
• Shorter recovery times compared to traditional open-heart surgery.
• Suitable for high-risk and elderly patients.

Adult, Neonatal & Pediatric Structural Heart Disease Interventions

Our department offers expert care for structural heart defects across all age groups.

Services Include:

• Device closures for congenital heart defects such as ASD, VSD, and PDA.
• Balloon valvuloplasty for valve stenosis in neonates, children and adults.
• Comprehensive care for adults with complex congenital heart diseases.

Aortic Interventions

We provide cutting-edge solutions for diseases affecting the aorta, including aneurysms and dissections.

Key Interventions:

• Endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) for aneurysms.
• Management of aortic dissections using minimally invasive techniques.
• Close monitoring and follow-up care to prevent complications.

Peripheral Interventions

Our Peripheral Intervention Services focus on treating conditions affecting the peripheral blood vessels.

Key Features:

• Angioplasty and stenting for peripheral artery disease (PAD).
• Treatment of carotid artery stenosis to prevent strokes.
• Management of vascular blockages and clots using advanced endovascular techniques.

Invasive Cardiology

The Invasive Cardiology Unit provides life-saving procedures for diagnosing and treating coronary artery disease.

Key Services:

• Coronary Angiography (CAG): Detailed imaging of coronary arteries to identify blockages.
• Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA): Stenting to restore blood flow in blocked arteries.
• Emergency care for heart attacks and acute coronary syndromes.

Arrhythmia / Cardiac Electrophysiology Services

Our Arrhythmia services focus on treating disorders related to heart rhythm disturbances.

Key Services:

• Pacemaker Implantations : Pacemaker device implantatioins for those suffering from low heart rate, syncope etc. These include conventional pacemakers, physiological pacing ( Left bundle pacing ) as well as leadless pacemaker ( world’s smallest ) pacemaker implantation.
• AICD Implantation : Implantation of cardiac defibrillator for life threatening arrhythmias and prevention of sudden cardiac death
• CRT : Advance pacemaker implantation for heart failure patients.

Heart Failure and Preventive Cardiology Clinic :

Our Heart Failure and Preventive Cardiology services focus on treating chronic disorders related to heart.

Key Services:

• Hypertension : Treatment and follow up of patients with increased blood pressure
• Heart Failure : Management, optimisation and follow up of patients suffering from heart failure.
• Cardiac Rehabilitation : Services to aid people suffering from severe heart condition to gradually resume their activities and work as well as counselling for prevention of future events.

Cardiac Critical Care Unit :

Our Cardiac critical care unit looks after the serious and sick patients with life threatening condition. This unit also looks after immediate post procedure patients. We have a fully equipped CCU with advance cardiac monitors, Life support devices, ventilators, IABP etc. The Department of Cardiology is committed to delivering world-class cardiovascular care, combining clinical excellence with advanced technology to improve patient outcomes and heart health.
