Treatment & Procedures

Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

Commonly known as bypass surgery, this is a procedure done to restore blood flow in a narrow or blocked artery. The procedure is an open heart surgery that requires a large incision to be made to access the chest cavity. The surgeon takes out a blood vessel from one part of your body and uses to divert blood flow away from the blocked coronary artery…

Coronary angiogram

An X-ray imaging test is done to see if there are any restrictions in blood flow going to your heart. This is the most common test to help doctors diagnose heart conditions. During coronary angiography, a small catheter or tube is inserted through the skin into an artery in the groin or the Hand. Through a special x-ray viewing instrument, the catheter…

Emergency Percutaneous Coronary…

This is a non-surgical procedure that is used to treat coronary arteries for stenosis. It is a combination of angioplasty & stenting that widens narrowed and blocked coronary arteries and restores blood flow from the heart. In cases of acute heart attacks (Myocardial Infarctions), PCI is used as an emergency treatment. PCI is considered to be an alternative…

Coronary angioplasty through Radial…

Coronary angioplasty is routinely done to open clogged heart arteries. It can improve symptoms such as chest pain and shortness of breath. Angioplasty is also often used during a heart attack to quickly open a blocked artery and reduce the amount of damage to your heart. It involves inserting and inflating a tiny balloon into the spot where your artery…

Cardiac Device Implantation

A cardiac device helps control irregular heartbeats to protect against heart rhythm disorders. One of the most commonly used cardiac devices is a pacemaker, which produces electrical stimuli to the heart to help it maintain rhythm. An Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) is used to assist the heart's ventricles to restore their capacity after…

Open Heart Surgery

This is a procedure that involves the opening of the chest cavity and creating a bypass system that allows blood to pump through your body without going through the heart. During open heart surgery, the heart is stopped for a period of time until surgical procedures or investigations can be completed. Once the surgical objective has been achieved,…

Structural heart disease intervention…

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI). The aortic valve controls the blood flow from your heart to the rest of the organs. TAVI is a minimally invasive procedure to replace your damaged or diseased aortic valve with a new man-made one using a narrow tube called a catheter. This is inserted into a large blood vessel in your groin or chest.

Balloon Pulmonary Valvotomy

The heart’s two lower chambers are the ventricles and the right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs. It connects to the pulmonary artery, the main blood vessel leading to the lungs. Between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery is the pulmonary valve, one of the heart’s four valves. In a normal heart, the pulmonary valve opens fully when the…

Read More

Balloon Mitral Valvotomy

The mitral valve is a valve with two flaps in the heart that lies between the left atrium and the left ventricle. Sometimes, the valves don't open or close properly, disrupting the blood flow through your heart to your body and also causes blood to leak backward to the left atrium. The valve may also be narrowed. Balloon Mitral Valvuloplasty is a procedure…

Read More

Ventricular Septal Defect VSD…

VSD is a hole in the wall called septum, separating the two lower chambers of the heart. In a normal heart, only the left side pumps blood to the body, and the right side to the lungs. With an abnormal opening between the ventricles, a large amount of oxygen-rich (red) blood from the heart's left side is pushed through the hole into the right side.…

Read More

Adult congenital heart disease…

Adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) Congenital heart disorders are the most common type of birth defect. These can range from simple ones with no symptoms to complex types which are severe and life-threatening such as a hole in the heart that causes blood from the left and right sides of the heart to mix, or even a narrowed valve that blocks blood…

Read More

Patent Ductus Arteriosus PDA Device…

PDA is an unclosed hole in the aorta, the main artery that carries blood away from your heart. In a normal heart, its left side pumps blood only to the body while the right pumps blood to the lungs. If you have PDA, extra blood gets pumped from your body artery or aorta into the lung (pulmonary) arteries. If the PDA is large, the extra blood being…

Read More

Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformation…

This condition occurs when arteries and veins have abnormal connections between them. Pulmonary AVMs act as direct conduits between the pulmonary artery and the pulmonary vein, which reduces blood oxygen levels, and also allows clots and bacteria to bypass the normal filtration process of the lung capillaries. Pulmonary AVMs are prone to rupturing,…

Automated Cardioverter Defibrillator…

The automated implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (AICD) is a tiny electronic device that is implanted in the chest to prevent sudden death from cardiac arrest caused due to fast heart rhythms called tachycardias. The surgery involves inserting insulated wires into the veins near your collarbone and moving them through X-ray images, to your heart.…

Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy…

CRT is prescribed for patients with heart failure or arrhythmia (irregular heart beat). There are two types of CRT devices – one is the biventricular pacemaker and the other is the same device which includes a built-in implantable cardioverter defibrillator and is called a cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D).

Yes, a yearly health check-up that includes a blood pressure check, lipid, and cholesterol test and a discussion with your doctor about other risk factors should not be overlooked.

Heart catheterisation is a procedure that includes placing a thin, flexible tube (catheter) into a blood vessel in the arm, neck region, or groin (upper thigh), and threading it to the heart. Most of the time, the catheter is inserted through the hand. This test is used for diagnosing and treating heart and blood vessel ailments. Consult a Bangalore heart hospital for accurate results while performing this procedure.

A pacemaker is a tiny device inserted under the skin of the chest & connected to the heart through wires in order to regulate its rhythm. It transfers electrical impulses to the heart ensuring a normal heartbeat if the heart is beating too irregularly, slowly, or when it completely stops beating. Pacemakers are used in treating heart ailments like bradycardia, heart block, or other heart rhythm disorders. Consult the best cardiologist in Bangalore for inserting a pacemaker.

Heart attack and heart failure are two different conditions that affect the heart. A heart attack occurs when the blood supply to the heart muscle is blocked, usually by a buildup of plaque in the arteries that supply blood to the heart. A heart attack is a medical emergency that requires prompt treatment. On the other hand, heart failure is a condition where the heart muscle becomes weak over time and cannot pump blood effectively. This can cause various symptoms like fatigue, breathlessness, and swelling of the legs, feet & ankles. To reduce the risks of heart failure, it is advised to get tests done at the top cardiology clinics in Bangalore.
