Coronary angiography is a medical procedure used to diagnose heart-related problems. During this procedure, a dye is injected into the arteries of the heart through a catheter, and X-rays are taken to visualize any blockages or narrowing in the arteries. It is typically performed by a cardiologist in a hospital or specialized medical facility. The procedure is minimally invasive and typically takes around 30-60 minutes to complete. Patients may be given sedation or local anesthesia to help them relax during the procedure.
Read MoreCoronary angioplasty, also known as percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), is a medical procedure that is used to treat blockages in the arteries of the heart. It involves using a catheter with a small balloon at its tip to inflate the narrowed or blocked area in the artery, which helps to restore blood flow to the heart. Sometimes, a stent (a tiny metal mesh tube) is placed in the artery to help keep it open. The procedure is typically performed by a cardiologist in a hospital or specialized medical facility and takes around 30-90 minutes to complete. Patients are usually awake during the procedure and given local anesthesia to numb the area where the catheter is inserted.
Read MoreTranscatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to replace a diseased aortic valve without open-heart surgery. It involves inserting a catheter with a new valve through a small incision in the groin or chest, and threading it to the heart. Once in position, the new valve is expanded, pushing the old valve out of the way, and the new valve takes over its function. The procedure is typically performed by a cardiac surgeon or an interventional cardiologist in a specialized medical facility and takes around 2-4 hours to complete. Patients typically have a shorter recovery time and experience fewer complications compared to traditional open-heart surgery.
Read MoreHeart failure management involves various strategies to improve symptoms and prevent further damage to the heart. This may include lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding smoking or excessive alcohol consumption. Medications such as ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, and diuretics may be prescribed to manage symptoms and improve heart function. In some cases, surgery or implantable devices such as pacemakers or defibrillators may be recommended. Close monitoring of symptoms and regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is important to ensure the best possible outcomes for individuals with heart failure.
Read MorePacemaker implantation is a surgical procedure that involves inserting a small device called a pacemaker under the skin of the chest or abdomen to help regulate the heartbeat. The pacemaker sends electrical signals to the heart to help it beat regularly and at the correct pace. The procedure is typically performed by a cardiologist or a cardiac surgeon in a specialized medical facility and takes around 1-2 hours to complete. Patients are typically given local anesthesia to numb the area where the pacemaker is inserted and may need to stay in the hospital for a day or two after the procedure for observation. Regular follow-up appointments with a healthcare provider are important to ensure the pacemaker is working correctly and to make any necessary adjustments.
