Heart Hospital in Ghaziabad

Treatment & Procedures

Holter Procedure

A Holter monitor is a small, wearable, ambulatory electrocardiography device that keeps track of heart rhythms and records all heartbeats.

Angiography (Radial & Femoral)…

Angiography: Angiography is used to detect the presence and degree of blockage in the heart's blood vessels. This procedure involves the use of a special dye, injected through the catheter, and an X-ray device to monitor its flow within the blood vessels.

TMT - Tread Mill Test

TMT or Tread Mill Test or Stress Test or Exercise Test measures how well the heart works when it is beating fast and working hard. A stress test helps doctors see if the heart is getting enough blood during these times.

ECG

An ECG or Electrocardiogram is a simple, non-invasive procedure that records heart rate and its rhythms. ECG is done to look or check for known heart conditions or how healthy the heart is before or after surgery.

Coronary angiogram

An angiogram is a diagnostic procedure that employs X-ray imaging to visualize the blood vessels of the heart. Its primary purpose is to detect blockages and narrowings within these vessels. The procedure involves injecting a contrast dye into the blood vessels, allowing doctors to examine blood flow throughout different areas of the body. The images…

An echocardiogram is an ultrasound of the heart. It uses standard 2D, 3D and Doppler ultrasound to create images of the heart. The test does not involve any radiation.

Coronary Artery Bypass Graft 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…

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention…

Angioplasty is a minimally invasive procedure that is used to open clogged heart arteries. It is also known as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). PCI is used to reduce the symptoms of blocked blood vessels, such as chest pain and shortness of breath. It can also be used to minimize damage to the heart during a heart attack.

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…

The Cardiovascular System

The cardiovascular system enables the movement of blood throughout the body. It includes the heart and blood vessels, responsible for transporting oxygen to different body parts.

The main components of the cardiovascular system include:

The heart

It's a robust and muscular pumping organ that pumps blood throughout our bodies. It also regulates blood pressure and keeps blood moving through our veins and arteries.

Blood vessels

These include arteries, veins, and capillaries. The arteries carry blood rich in oxygen from the heart to other parts of our body, while veins bring oxygen-poor blood back to the heart from different parts of our body.

Blood - This liquid substance contains:
- Red cells carry oxygen.
- White cells fight infections.
- Platelets help prevent bleeding.
- Hormones carry messages across the body.
- Glucose provides energy.
- Fats store energy for later use.
- Vitamins and minerals help keep us healthy.

Common Cardiovascular System Diseases

The common diseases of this system include

Atherosclerosis: hardening of the arteries
Hypertension: high blood pressure
Myocardial infarction: heart attack
Peripheral vascular disease: inadequate blood circulation in the legs
Pulmonary embolism: a blockage in the lungs
Stroke: damage to the brain. To know more, visit our top hospital in Ghaziabad.

Some interesting facts about the cardiovascular system:

The human heart weighs between 220 to 240 grams.
The heart is the body's most significant muscle, and it pumps blood throughout the body through a network of blood vessels.
Each side of the heart has its independent electrical system that generates electrical impulses that cause each side of the heart to contract independently.
The heart is about the size of a fist and weighs about as much as your brain.

Diagnosis Facilities

Treadmill Test

A treadmill test is an exercise stress test that measures your heart's ability to pump blood while you're walking on a treadmill. The best cardiologists in Ghaziabad will watch your heart rate and blood pressure closely during the test to determine if you're having trouble with your heart's electrical system or pumping ability.

ECG

An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnosis to measure the electrical activity of your heart. It uses electrodes placed on your skin to record how fast and regularly your heart beats and any abnormal rhythms it may have. An ECG can also show how well your heart works overall.

Echocardiogram

An echocardiogram is a test that uses sound waves (ultrasound) to create a moving picture of structures within the heart. The echocardiogram allows us to see if there are any blockages in your coronary arteries which could cause chest pain or shortness of breath. An echocardiogram can also evaluate your heart rhythm and determine if there are any abnormalities such as atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter that could lead to stroke or other serious health problems. Consult with the heart specialist in Ghaziabad to know more about the treatment.

Coronary Angiogram

A coronary angiogram is a diagnosis that uses X-rays to create images of blood vessels within the heart. It allows us to see areas where blockages have occurred in coronary arteries.

Holter Procedure

A Holter monitor is a portable device that measures the heart's electrical activity over 24 hours. It is worn like a watch and records any abnormal rhythms that may be causing your symptoms.

Fractional Flow Reserve (FFR)

FFR allows the best heart specialist in Ghaziabad to determine whether coronary artery disease (CAD) is present by measuring the blood flow through an artery narrowed by plaque.

Intravascular UltraSound (IVUS)

IVUS uses an ultrasound probe to create images of the inside of your arteries. The probe has a tiny tube at its tip. Doctors insert it into an artery in your groin area. An IVUS image shows the cross-section of an artery on a computer screen and helps doctors see if any blockages in it might be causing problems for you.

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

OCT uses light waves and computer technology to create high-resolution images inside tissue without using X-rays or radioactive dyes. OCT can be used to look at tissue throughout your body and outside.

Hemodynamic Evaluation

Hemodynamic evaluation is a way to measure the pressure and flow of blood through the body. The test determines how well your heart is functioning, especially when there has been damage to the heart muscle. It can also help doctors evaluate how well your body responds to heart disease treatment.

Treatments

Following treatments are available from Manipal Hospitals-the best cardiologist in Indirapuram Ghaziabad.

Coronary Angioplasty

A surgical procedure to open blocked or narrowed arteries by inserting a tube with an inflatable band into the artery. A cardiac surgeon inflates a balloon to flatten the plaque against the artery wall; the inflated balloon then helps keep it open as it deflates.

A medical device implanted in your body, such as:
Pacemakers
Implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs)
Heart valves
Cardiac resynchronisation devices (CRDs)

How do I identify a heart condition?

If you have chest pain (angina), shortness of breath (angina) or dizziness, you should see your doctor immediately. If you have been diagnosed with coronary artery disease, you will likely be prescribed medications to control your symptoms and slow down the progression of the disease.

My doctor says I have heart murmurs; what does this mean?

A "heart murmur" is a sound heard when blood flows by an abnormality in one or more valves in your heart's four chambers -- two atria (upper chambers) and two ventricles (lower chambers). This abnormal valve can be either too tight (stenotic) or too loose. Visit Manipal Hospitals to have the best cardiology treatment in Ghaziabad.
