Understanding Cardiology
Cardiology is the branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases affecting the heart and blood vessels. It includes both non-invasive and interventional techniques as well as surgical care.
Cardiac care requires a multidisciplinary approach. Cardiologists, interventional cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, and anesthesiologists work together to evaluate the condition of the heart and determine the most appropriate course of action. In India, hospitals utilize state-of-the-art equipment, hybrid cath labs, and robotic-assisted surgery to deliver world-class outcomes.
Common Heart Conditions We Help Treat
Below are some of the most prevalent cardiac conditions we assist patients with. Accurate diagnosis and timely treatment are critical to preventing complications and improving quality of life.
- Coronary Artery Disease (CAD): A buildup of plaque in the arteries that supply blood to the heart. CAD can lead to angina (chest pain) or heart attacks. Common treatments include angioplasty and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
- Heart Failure: A condition where the heart cannot pump blood effectively. It may require long-term medication management, lifestyle changes, and in advanced cases, device implantation or transplant.
- Heart Valve Disease: Conditions like stenosis or regurgitation affect how the heart valves function. Treatments include valve repair or replacement, often through minimally invasive surgery.
- Arrhythmias: Irregular heartbeats, such as atrial fibrillation, can lead to complications like stroke or heart failure. Treatments range from medication to procedures like ablation or pacemaker/ICD insertion.
- Congenital Heart Defects: Structural abnormalities present from birth, ranging from simple to complex conditions. Pediatric heart surgery is often required for correction.
- Cardiomyopathy: Diseases that affect the heart muscle, making it harder to pump blood. Depending on the type, treatments include medications, lifestyle modifications, and advanced surgical options.
- Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Often called the “silent killer,” hypertension increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage. Managing blood pressure is essential to prevent long-term complications.
- Aortic Aneurysm & Dissection: Life-threatening conditions involving the major artery from the heart. Treatment may include open-heart surgery or stenting depending on severity and location.
