Treatments & Procedures

Myocardial Management: Elevating Heart Health through State-of-the-Art Treatments

Coronary Angioplasty & Stenting

Coronary angioplasty uses a balloon and stent to open blocked arteries and restore blood flow in the blocked arteries

Coronary Angiography

Coronary angiography is a diagnostic procedure that evaluates blood flow in the heart's arteries, aiding in the detection of blockages.

Cardiac Device Implantation

Cardiac device implantation involves the placement of devices like pacemakers or defibrillators to regulate heart rhythm or prevent heart attacks

Mitral valve Clip

MitraClip is an advanced procedure for mitral regurgitation, improving valve function by securing the leaflets together to reduce backward blood flow.

Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG)

Surgery creating new pathways around blocked arteries, restoring normal blood flow and improving heart function.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI)

A minimally invasive procedure used to replace a diseased aortic valve with a prosthetic valve for right flow of blood in the heart.

FAQ

A cardiologist is a medical doctor with specialised training and skill in disgnosing, treating, and preventing diseases of the heart and blood vessels.
You should consider seeing a cardiologist if you experience symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, dizziness, or fainting, especially if they are persistent or severe. Additionally, if you have risk factors for heart disease such as high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking, or a family history of heart problems, regular check-ups with a cardiologist may be recommended to monitor your heart health and prevent potential complications.
Adopting a heart-healthy lifestyle is crucial for maintaining optimal heart health and reducing the risk of heart disease. This includes eating a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins; engaging in regular physical activity; maintaining a healthy weight; avoiding tobacco products; managing stress; and monitoring and controlling risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes.
Symptoms of a heart attack can vary but commonly include chest pain or discomfort, shortness of breath, nausea, lightheadedness, and pain or discomfort in the arms, back, neck, jaw, or stomach.
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a condition characterized by the narrowing or blockage of the coronary arteries, which supply blood to the heart muscle. This can result from the buildup of plaque (atherosclerosis) within the arteries, reducing blood flow and oxygen delivery to the heart, leading to symptoms such as chest pain (angina) and increasing the risk of heart attack and other complications.
High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a common condition in which the force of blood against the walls of the arteries is consistently too high. Over time, untreated hypertension can damage the arteries and organs, increasing the risk of heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, and other serious health problems.
Cardiac catheterization is a diagnostic and therapeutic procedure used to evaluate and treat various heart conditions. It involves inserting a thin, flexible tube (catheter) into a blood vessel in the groin, arm, or neck and threading it to the heart. Cardiac catheterization can help diagnose blockages in the coronary arteries, assess heart function, measure pressures within the heart chambers, and perform interventions such as angioplasty and stent placement.
An echocardiogram is a non-invasive imaging test that uses ultrasound to create detailed images of the heart's structure and function. It provides valuable information about the size, shape, and pumping capacity of the heart, as well as the movement of blood through its chambers and valves. Echocardiography is commonly used to diagnose and monitor various heart conditions, including valve disorders, heart failure, and congenital heart defects.
A pacemaker is a small electronic device implanted under the skin, usually in the chest area, to help regulate the heart's rhythm. It consists of a pulse generator and leads (wires) that are connected to the heart. The pacemaker continuously monitors the heart's electrical activity and delivers electrical impulses to control abnormal heart rhythms.
Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a common heart rhythm disorder characterized by irregular and often rapid electrical signals in the upper chambers (atria) of the heart. This chaotic activity disrupts the heart's normal rhythm, causing irregular and sometimes fast heartbeats. AFib increases the risk of blood clots, stroke, heart failure, and other complications, so prompt diagnosis and appropriate management are essential.
